Lines: 29 *>For all you do, This Bud's for you<* I recently got a microwave oven as a gift. It's a Frigadaire (?) with the large capacity cooking space. As a working parent it's the greatest thing since fast food. Things to ask think about before you buy one: 1. How large is the cooking cavity - I don't think you'd want one that was only big enough for a grilled-cheese sandwich... 2. How many power levels does it have - Not everything you put in one of these should be cooked at max power. 3. How many maximum cooking minutes does the timer have on it - If there's only 25 minutes you'll spend alot of time re-setting it. 4. Hint, hint - You don't have to go out and spend big bucks on mircroware - Use paper plates or glass baking pans. You can also cook in the utensils you serve in...Nice for us dish-washers!! GOOD LUCK!
