The Daewoo looks naff but technically good. I prefer the look of the kenwood. Plenty to choose from on Currys.
Like you said they keep changing the model on offer. £80 is about my budget. Need more than 20l and 800W and no dials. Tempted with this http://www.currys.co.uk/gbuk/household-appliances/cooking/microwaves/kenwood-k23cm13-combination-microwave-mirror-finish-19394353-pdt.html

Its now £159!!

Thanks op, just bought and plugged in.

Here's a 25l 900w electricQ for £65 http://www.appliancesdirect.co.uk/p/eiqmw925solo/electriq-eiqmw925solo-freestanding-microwave-oven

I wouldn't buy it though, because it has a knob instead of a keypad to set the timer.

Probably better to pay an extra 10-20 for a proper brand, which kenwood isn't.

Or how about a 31L 1000W for £65 http://www.sonicdirect.co.uk/prod/Microwave-Ovens/Daewoo-KOR1N0A-Family-Size-Microwave-Oven-in-White-11-cuft

Anyway, I wasn't saying that 70 isn't a reasonable price, just that its normal price should be more like £70 and not anything like £149.

I really hate my kenwood microwave (see my comments here:) :- http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/kenwood-microwave-currys-54-99-2679074?p=30752806), however fortunately for you it is not this model and the worse feature is the timer which is set with a knob. I think my last microwave might have been a matsui I picked up in Argos, was really good, cheap and lasted getting on for 20 years.

My last Kenwood microwave rusted though in about 18 months.

That's after running a Sharp for about 10 years (back in the day when the Sharp badge was applied to Sharp microwaves only).

So why put a link up for a Daewoo then?
And as for melted, he needs to take the 'ed' off his username.

How about a 26L 900W microwave for £65?

That said, I still just bought the Kenwood :-P . My last microwave was a Daewoo, and I wasn't impressed with it.

voted cold, as it is not really a deal: Currys always seem to have one or two of their "kenwood" branded microwaves on offer and the rest seriously over-priced, they just regularly switch the offer models to make it look like you are getting a really good price.

The one I paid under £70 for a couple or so years ago, is currently priced at £160, and this one looks very much like the model I went in to buy, but they'd just switched the offer model.

This is great!, you can do baked beans 'an everyfin innit!.

Microwavable heat added :sunglasses:

Had one of these for a few years, just noticed a hole in the top inside.

However great size and power, so still using it :wink:
