Make and model ?


Crikey. It's a Bifinett KH1167, which I think was also badged Silverline
at one time.


Ahh. Not many had metal turntables like my Sharp did. That suddenly
stopped heating on microwave but worked fine on oven and/or grill.
Luckily, I was in the BHF charity shop in Worthing and they had a
almost-unused Panny CT552 combi-microwave for £30 which works fine,
so the 20KG Sharp lump is heading for the recycling skip.

The Panny has a much nicer and quieter beep, beep, beep at completion.
The sharp had a really annoying piezo-electric buzzer that sounded
for too long.
