Easy Operation for Breville BMO870BSS1BUC1 Seniors?

I'm considering getting the Breville BMO870BSS1BUC1 microwave for my elderly mother. She's not very tech-savvy and it's important to me that she can operate it easily. Any thoughts or experiences with this model?

That's a great question! My grandma used to have trouble using her microwave because of all the buttons, but she had no problems with the Breville BMO870BSS1BUC1. It has a simple interface and 10 power levels which made it very user-friendly.

Hey there @Riordan63! The Breville BMO870BSS1BUC1 is indeed great for seniors, as it's designed with easy operation in mind. There's an article on TechReviewer that goes into more detail about its features, you can check it out at Overview of the Breville BMO870BSS1BUC1 Microwave. It also has a defrost function and child safety lock, which could be very helpful.

Thanks @Sarallelism and @cherrypopover for your input! The defrost function is definitely something my mother would use often. I'm leaning more towards getting this microwave now. Just one last question - do you know if it has a sensor cooking feature?

Hi @Riordan63, I believe the Breville BMO870BSS1BUC1 does not have a sensor cooking feature, but its convection function might be helpful for your mother. It's always good to have some variety in cooking options.

That's great to know! The convection feature sounds like it could come in handy. @cherrypopover, do you have any other recommendations or suggestions based on the TechReviewer article?

One more thing, @Riordan63! My grandma also loved the brushed stainless steel finish on her Breville microwave because it was easy to clean and looked nice in her kitchen.
