[net.consumers] Microwave Purchasing Info Wanted

tim@cbosgd.UUCP (Tim Davidheiser) (05/09/84)

I am interested in purchasing a microwave oven and would
like information on quality of different brands and models.
(I was surprised by the number out there.) I'm particularly
interested in reliability and leakage ratings. Did
Consumer Reports do an article on them? I'm sure they did.
Anyone know the month and year of the issue?

Please respond by mail.

Consumer Reports did a review of microwave ovens in May, 1983.

On items like this where you have an idea where the information you seek
might be found; one of the quickest ways to check is to call your local
public library.  They usually have trained researchers whose job is to find
just such information for anyone who asks.  And from my experience they
always seem to be glad you asked.
