Small Appliance Repair questions, answered by experts

The magnetron, which is the component that generates the microwave energy used to heat your food, is the most likely piece to cause your appliance to fail. Unfortunately, your microwave won’t serve any purpose without a functioning magnetron, so not only is this the most common repair, but it’s also the most important. 

Repairing a broken magnetron usually costs between $100 and $200 or $175 on average. About half of that cost goes toward labor, and the other half is for a new magnetron. Higher-end microwaves may demand larger or more complex components, which could increase your repair cost.

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:

  • 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.

  • For over-the-range microwaves, clean the grease filter that’s underneath it. This will ensure the microwave runs efficiently.

  • Never put anything metal in the microwave, as it can create a fire hazard. Also, avoid dishes with metal trim for the same reason. 

  • Avoid slamming the door. With years of use, the door switches could easily break. 

Plug-in appliances, such as fans, hair dryers, irons, and vacuums, can cause a circuit overload and trip your circuit breaker. Older electrical systems may not support newer appliances, or the appliances may have internal damage. You need to determine whether the issue stems from the outlet or the appliance so you know which needs to be repaired or replaced.

Refinishing gives appliances a refreshed look, extends their lifespan, and is more cost-effective than new purchases. It also allows personalization to match the decor.

One of the best ways to prevent costly repairs is to take good care of your microwave,  including cleaning your microwave regularly. If your microwave is covered in an embarrassing amount of gunk, there are a variety of simple tricks to get your microwave squeaky clean. 

Common household ingredients like lemons, vinegar, and baking soda will combat grease as effectively as harsh chemical solutions. Microwaves kept in good condition typically last about ten years.
