Perfect for recent grads, the Amana AMC4080A microwave oven offers enough features to prepare a sophisticated meal for friends.

Yet its compact countertop design makes it small enough to take along as you move on to bigger and better quarters. Easy-to-use electronic controls take the guesswork out of programming and ensure accurate cooking results, time after time. Simple one-touch keys prepare favorites like popcorn, frozen pizza, baked potatoes and prepared dinners in a flash.

When a more complex meal is in order, the programmed defrost makes quick work of defrosting meats in a hurry. Ten power levels offer the control needed to complete more delicate tasks, such melting butter and softening containers of ice cream. An interior turntable ensures even cooking and limits hot spots.

Available in white, black, or stainless steel, the Amana AMC4080A microwave oven is flexible enough to fit your style. To save on counter space, consider purchasing the under-cabinet mounting kit.

Pros: Electronic controls, small yet sophisticated
Cons: Holds only small plates
