I have a 'Little Litton', made in the sixties, and it still works fine, in fact does popcorn (it has no turntable) better than new ones do. It has never had a repair other than replacing the light bulb every few years. However, it will give you a hernia when you pick it up! g > Regards Lee |

In fact there will likely be virtually no difference in cooking ability. Microwave oven technology has been refined to the extent that there's very little difference from one unit to another, much like the "AA5" radio of the tube era, the outside may look different, but under the cover they're all remarkably similar. If you have a big old oven in decent cosmetic condition and you still like the thing, seems like it's worth fixing, but then I'd rather fix anything than throw it away. |

This blade scatters the microwave energy to prevent hot spots. New ovens usually just have a turntable instead. It's debatable which is a better approach, I'm guessing the turntable must be cheaper to make though, either that or people just recognize it as a feature while the fan blade is hidden. |
