Small Appliance Repair questions, answered by experts

Most local governments classify microwaves as hazardous household electronic waste items that are bad for the environment. This is why you could receive a fine for improperly disposing of a microwave in your normal curbside garbage collection or a landfill. Often, state law requires the hazardous components to be removed and safely disposed of before the item is recycled as scrap metal.

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.

In most cases, it is more cost-effective to repair a microwave rather than replace it, especially if the appliance is relatively new and not nearing the end of its typical seven-year lifespan. The average cost to repair a microwave is around $175, whereas a replacement can average $500, including the new unit and installation. The cost of a new microwave varies significantly by type, from $50 to $500 for a countertop model to as much as $3,500 for a combination oven. If your microwave is less than five years old, a repair is likely the better financial choice. However, if it is approaching the end of its life—usually around seven to eight years old—replacing it might be more sensible in the long run.

A professional microwave installation typically takes between one and three hours. The exact time depends on the model and the complexity of the job. Countertop units are the quickest to set up, while built-in, drawer, and vented over-the-range microwaves often take 1-2 hours for a standard replacement. The installation could extend to three hours if new electrical wiring or custom cabinetry modifications are required.

If you can’t get your microwave to stop tripping the breaker, hire a local appliance repair professional. They have the skills to quickly identify the problem and fix it. These professionals also have the knowledge and experience of working with appliances, so they know how to take the proper precautions to minimize the risk of electrical shock and fires.
