Default Are old microwave ovens built better than the new ones?

Made ones like my vintage 1989 Tappan are way better than the Chinese
junk you can only buy today. And I also happen to know one other
person with my exact same microwave. Still in service after all this
time.

My 1982? Samsung sitting on the kitchen counter still works fine. It'll
likely outlive me.

I repaired my 1980 Sharp 650W uwave about 8 yrs ago,cost of $25 in parts.
VERY cost-efficient.

and it has a larger(taller) oven cavity than current ovens.
