Paying $450 for a 1.6cu ft vs $198 for a 1.2cu ft also RGMG given the small lift in size.

Ohh the new one feels and sounds sooo cheap. It closes and just feels like an aluminum piece of foil. Since I posted that, we had a power outage and had to re-program this thing yet again. I literally have needed to reference the owners manual no less than 8 times to get fix settings.

I am tempted to go and find a used turn dial beauty from the 90's. What a joke
