Time To Stop Reheating Foods In Microwave

[petek]

The neatest little m/w I had I bought when I was transferred and living in a small rental apt until my partner finished up his work and moved, so about 10 months. It was a tiny Litton with a built in broiling element on the top and wasn't much bigger than a vintage GE toaster oven, about 10 inches high and a foot wide and not that deep either. The interior cavity was about 9 inches. No turntable. It had a removable wire rack for broiling as well. We bought a house shortly after his arrival and I sold it to a friend. Wished I'd kept it now. I can't find any information or pictures of it online. Litton did come out with a line called the Little Litton, but those were not near as little as that one was as I remember. but i could be wrong

My parents got a Litton in 1975 or early 1976 while I was in college. It got used heavily and was still working like new in May 2002 when they sold their house. lThe Litton I bought in Summer/early fall 1978 lasted for 24-26 years. Also used very heavily. I did chuck roasts, cooked lasaagna casseroles, meat loaf, so many other things.

Lights-Out factories

Impressive.
If you owned a factory, wouldn't you want the same thing?

Littl Litton

I remember the tiny .5 cu. ft. type mvs from the late 80s.

Often they had 4 holes on the top where you could drill through a wall cabinet and hang the MV as an under-cabinet appliance. The wattage was usually less like 500 watts.
But they were cute.

#61 ... it's a Panasonic, called the Sky-Lite model.  The local Whirlpool dealer sold Panasonic microwaves, had one on display at the time.

It has been discussed in the past.
