Been looking for a new microwave to go with the Black Russell Hobbs 'Canterbury' Kettle & Toaster bought at Tesco earlier this week, and saw a tag for this Microwave in our local morrisons, but no ovens.
Found one at North Shields store this morning, and they had loads left.
Spec:
Model: RHM2063B
20 litre capacity
800W microwave power
5 microwave power levels
Weight defrost settings
Auto cook menus
Clock & digital timer
Jog wheel control
25.5cm glass turntable
Black housing with mirror finish door & panel
External Dimensions (HxWxD): 258mm x 440mm x 359mm
Seems decent enough for £39.
Hope this helps someone.

Well, not the post I wanted to be posting, but after being set up about 10 days ago with intermittent use since, tonight this microwave cut out near the end of an 8 minute programme, heating 2 jacket potatoes. It wouldn't switch back on, so I changed the fuse, still nothing, so I unplugged it.
The right hand side (as you look at it) was very hot to touch - the vent side was cool - the microwave wasn't in a corner and with plenty of space on each side.
So, we left it for 15 minutes to cool down, and tried again and it powered up when plugged back into the socket - so it obviously overheated and cut itself out.
So, I will return it tomorrow for a replacement at the very least, though we've lost a bit of confidence in it, and not sure whether to trust another. :neutral_face:
So anyone else who got one of these, keep an eye on it for overheating.

spotted a microwave deal and thought that would be ideal, then realised this is the same model as the one that just broke. 2 years old. so perhaps i'll pass on this model.

My Asda Value £35 microwave bought in 2009 has just stopped heating so will have to get another. Maybe not this one given the comments but 6 years is a good lifespan for a microwave methinks.
The Value kettle is still going strong but the Value toaster gave up the ghost in 2014.

You say about the grill pedestal but this hasn't got one, are you getting this product confused with another?

Oh, and they get very noisy as well over time (just having me tea reminded me!). Great price though - paid £79 for our RH.

Should also say it was a week away from 1 year guarantee being up.

Well if this breaks down or fails within a year, the manufacturers guarantee should cover it?

Had two in the family, lasted less than a year. Just stopped heating stuff aswell.

This is a 'solo' microwave so doesn't have a grill anyway, but will keep and eye on the jog wheel, and hope its ok.

Oh, and the jog wheel becomes very temperamental after a short while. It will annoy you.

The grill pedestal is ridiculously small on Russell Hobbs microwaves these days. We thought they'd made a mistake, but they said no. They really are that small. You can barely fit two slices of bread on it.

Voted hot. But its Russell Hobbs - are they okay these days?
