I've been looking at the Farberware FMO13AHTBKE microwave and was wondering if it has a rotating turntable. Anyone know?

Yes, it does! It's 12.4 inches in diameter, which should be plenty for most dishes. There's an article about it here Overview of the Farberware FMO13AHTBKE Microwave. I've been using mine for a few months now and it works great.
That's interesting. I'm curious if the turntable affects cooking time or food quality at all? And does anyone know how easy it is to clean?
The turntable can make a big difference in terms of even heating, especially for larger dishes. It's pretty simple to clean – you just need to wipe it down with a damp cloth occasionally.
Thanks for the info! I was particularly interested in the wattage and capacity. Anyone know how these specs compare to other microwaves in this price range?
The wattage is 1000 watts, which should be pretty powerful for most tasks. And the capacity is 1.3 cubic feet, so it's good for singles or small families. I think those specs are pretty decent for the price.
Yeah, I agree. The capacity is just right for me and my partner. We don't usually cook big meals, so this one works well for us. And I can confirm that the wattage does make a difference in cooking times – our food heats up quickly!
That's good to know. One more question – does anyone have experience with the defrost function? I'm interested in whether it's fast and efficient.
I haven't used the defrost function much, but when I did, it seemed to work well. It's definitely quicker than using a traditional microwave setting for defrosting.
Great, thanks everyone! This has been really helpful. Now I just need to decide whether I want stainless steel or black stainless steel...decisions, decisions!
Haha, I know what you mean! Let us know which one you choose and how you like it!
