It disgusts me, that in this day and age, our economy has become so disposable.

I recently had to replace a 20-25 year old microwave, mostly because the body was rusting. (As it turns out, it was also fairly underpowered, but who knows if it had become weaker or was always that "strength"?)

After some quick research it turns out that GE is notoriously bad for prematurely failing magnetron's

I got a GE to replace it. Assuming that the symptom of a failed magnetron is the fact that it doesn't heat anything, the one I got had a failed magnetron out of the box. Really irritating.
