Oh, and how universal are the "so called" universal motors?

AIUI the only universal thing about them is that they could work on AC

a kind of brush using motor.


The turntable on ours stopped working five years ago. It still heats
things up, although not quite as well.

Built in microwaves seem to have come down in price.
