Just curious. If one were available, would you get one with that much power again?

I've had it marked with Velcro. I'm going to have to replace it soon enough, as it's got a rusted out patch where the wheels for the carousel get hung up. I'll probably go with the one mentioned here recently, as I prefer buttons to dealing with a talking touchscreen.

Curious minds would like to know what your microwave is please? 1,900 watts, is that a professional restaurant size microwave, or is that for the normal home? Now for the biggest and toughest question, how is it accessible? Is it via a brailed over lay, or is it voice output, and or does it have actual physical touchable buttons on it. Please spill your secrets. SMILES.

I cook on stovetop, in the oven, in the microwave, and even outside if needed. My utensil jar is an old 4 quart removable crock. There are 8 cutting boards, including a round one exclusively for pizza, and the two big ones, one of which is for rolling out dough, and the other one is a Boos Block free standing butcher block So there's plenty of time and place to chop or otherwise cut something. For big drinks I have a few gallon jugs around and a glass jug too, while for bigger drinks, especially hot ones, I've got a 40 cup percolating coffee urn. (Never use it for coffee) So I like a *lot* of styles.

I also have the five fingered ones that Dale has. I like them all.
