$159.99Matches its 90-day low

Why C: Fair, not special. Inverter power heats more evenly than a basic microwave, and this one adds a broil element for crisping. If yours just died, it's a solid pick; otherwise wait to see what Black Friday brings.

The lesson
Fair, not special. Inverter power heats more evenly than a basic microwave, and this one adds a broil element for crisping. But $159.99 is the same price Costco charged in late August, so it isn't a new low. If yours just died, it's a solid pick; otherwise wait to see what Black Friday brings.
