DO NOT BUY - WILL FAIL

 

I bought TWO of these for two kitchens in my house. BOTH FAILED with the exact same problem - the LCD touch-panel quits working. Research on Internet shows this is a VERY common problem. Replacement is about 3/4 cost of original purchase. DO NOT BUY...

Not Dependable

 

My experience was the same a everyone else.  Mine died after a year and a half.  I replaced it with a Panasonic Inverter microwave (model NN-SD978SS) at a fraction of the cost of the Dacor and could not be happier.  Save your money and do not reward...

(When working)...cooked food quickly.  Popcorn auto sensor was great.  Touchpad looked

Died after 1 & 1/2 years of use.  Too expensive

Excellent microwave, this is my 2nd one.

 

I had one of these microwaves and it lasted me for several years. I read some of the reviews of this product and many people complained about that it only lasted for two years. That has not been my experience, it worked for six years. I have two young...

This is a high quality unit but the cost is high also. Especially when you add the trim kit.

Simple Bulb Replacement Takes a Service Call

 

The light stopped coming on right after the warranty expired. To replace the bulb, the local shop wanted $90 for a minimum service call.  There is one post online about replacing the bulb which is (1) Cryptic, and (2) sounds like you have to remove the...

Looks nice

Light bulb quick to burn out, difficult to replace

Satisfied

 

This replaced an older Dacor model that had finally given out. This unit fit exactly into the original space using the original trim kit which saved several hundred dollars.

How does Dacor get away with selling this overpriced garbage of a microwave!!!!!

 

classic horrible product story- overpriced, fails with known defect in short period of time, and the maker does'nt stand behind the product.

The stainless is attractive and matches the Dacor oven set well

It is absolutely not worth the price or the effort to mount in cabinet

The Worst!

 

I have owned this model (DMT2420) for four years. After one year the key pad broke and had to be replaced. Now it just erupted in sparks and burned up inside. I had to pay a repairman for a service call to be told it can't be fixed. I am sure I can...

Looks nice in kitchen. Fun graphics on display screeen

Didn't last long for such an expensive product. Needed costly repairs
