"This repair of my Microwave went very well, with AMJ Appliance Repair accommodating my request to come early in the established window. He was efficient, got to the point, and made sure he brought parts with him. 5* to AMJ Appliance Repair. But I am still smarting from my last experience with Choice Home Warranty denying my claim on a boiler repair with no ability to appeal. The guy that eventually fixed it for me said Choice was wrong and should have repaired it."

"I had 3 issues to be fixed. Nice guys. Bought the disposal for me, which saved me a trip. Bought the flapper valve I also needed. Replacement went quickly. Unable to determine cause of low water pressure in kitchen faucet. Cleaning filter didn't solve problem. I didn't want to buy a new faucet at this time. Should have presented me with a more detailed bill. Work was completed correctly but absence of bill concerned me. Cost seemed high, but they did shop for me, so that was probably figured in."

Small Appliance Repair questions, answered by experts

Most repairs take 1-3 hours, though complex electrical or gas issues may require additional time.

In general, yes, it's worth repairing an appliance over replacing it. 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.

Ovens are measured by the width, height, and depth of the overall oven (typically in inches). You’ll want to measure the oven not only for the final space it’ll be installed in but also to make sure all the openings in your home to get to your kitchen can accommodate its size.

Since clicks are a normal part of a modern oven's functioning, you don't want to prevent them. However, if you think the oven is clicking because of a problem, then your best option is to hire an oven repair professional to inspect it and let you know how to proceed.

The average lifespan of a microwave is typically between 7 and 10 years, though this can vary. Some models may last as few as 5 years, while high-end or boutique brands can function for up to 15 years.

Several factors influence a microwave's longevity, including its make, model, and quality, as well as how frequently it is used and how well it is maintained.

To extend the life of your microwave, follow these maintenance and usage tips:

  • Clean regularly: Immediately wipe up spills and food debris. For stuck-on food, you can heat a bowl of water with a bit of lemon juice for a minute to create steam, which makes cleaning easier.

  • Maintain filters: For over-the-range microwaves, regularly clean the grease filter underneath to ensure it runs efficiently. Clean or replace other filters as needed.

  • Handle with care: Avoid slamming the door, as this can damage the door switches over time.

  • Use it safely: Never run the microwave when it's empty, and do not put metal objects or dishes with metallic trim inside, as this can damage the appliance and create a fire hazard.

  • Inspect the power cord: Periodically check the cord for any signs of damage.
