How long should my microwave last?

• <div><p>A microwave can last anywhere from five to 10 years. To get the most out of this appliance, you should follow a few maintenance tips:</p><ul><li><p>Immediately clean up spills and food bits. To help with stuck-on food, heat a bowl of water with ¼ cup of lemon juice for one minute.</p></li><li><p>For over-the-range microwaves, clean the grease filter that’s underneath it. This will ensure the microwave runs efficiently.</p></li><li><p>Never put anything metal in the microwave, as it can create a fire hazard. Also, avoid dishes with metal trim for the same reason. </p></li><li><p>Avoid slamming the door. With years of use, the door switches could easily break. </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Can I install a microwave myself?

• <div><p>DIY is possible for countertop models. Professional installation ensures proper mounting and electrical connections for built-in units.</p></div>

Q: How long should an oven heating element last?

• <div><p>Oven elements, despite being relatively inexpensive, can last between five and 10 years. Obviously this depends heavily on their usage and if they are kept clean and undamaged. Avoiding spills and cleaning your oven regularly can help extend its life.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth fixing an oven?

• <div><p>In general, yes, it's worth <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/should-i-repair-or-replace-my-broken-appliance.htm">repairing an appliance over replacing it</a>. If the repair will give you more years of reliable service from the oven and the repair costs less than buying a comparable new model, then yes, get it repaired. If, on the other hand, the oven is reaching the end of its life and needs a costly repair, you're likely better off buying a new oven.</p></div>

Q: How much does microwave repair typically cost?

• <div><p>Microwave repairs cost an average of $175, and most repairs fall between $100 and $200. Minor repairs, like replacing a broken diode or glass plate, can cost as little as $50, while major repairs like a door replacement can total between $400 and $500. In some cases, it&rsquo;s more affordable to replace the entire microwave than it is to carry out repairs, especially if it&rsquo;s nearing the end of its life.</p></div>
