just thought I would mention this, if you buy a commecial microwave to heat plastic with. make sure you don/t cook at 3 mins , its more like one minute max from what I am told stir it every 15 seconds

Re: microwaves

Re: microwaves

Mine was less than six months old, they won't exchange it, has to be sent off. My first wife has still got the one I bought more than 25 years ago and it still works!

Re: microwaves

I know what you are saying Vodkaman, the first thing the wife and I purchased as a couple was the microwave I am using now in the garage for cooking my plastic it still works great and in January it will be 25 years old.

Kelly is correct, the older I get the more of my friends have "WIVES" and I see the frustration one is all I can handle.

Ditto VM, the turn table models don't last me more that a year or two. I've have older models given to me that are still going.

Re: microwaves

I'm using a microwave that my buddy gave me. It was his ex-wife's and it's probably 15 or more years old. The turntable doesn't work. I plastic at about 2 minutes a cycle before stirring. It works well. And it was free.
