A friend told me, looking through the images of microwave ovens offered in various stores on her smartphone.
–
I want all the appliances in my kitchen to be mine alone. To make my husband feel like home
“.
My friend who is not a crazy housewife manages to create her household carefully and accurately, putting together single compositions of disparate things. And here’s the next challenge – to put a microwave in the kitchen. Normal, uncomplicated, so that the kids can heat their own lunch during the day. No problem? Not for her, because the new oven has to fit in perfectly with appliances from the 50’s on the market. 20 century.
My friend’s husband associates this time with coziness, beauty and home
.
And my girlfriend sits with her smartphone in her hands, and all I can hear is, “Not that, not that, not that.”.
The most amazing thing is that when I got home and unpacked the box of microwave oven that came to me for testing, I saw exactly what I needed: a bright, rounded window, created in a retro design.
All the more interesting to test it: can I recommend
VEKTA TS720BRC
to her beloved friend, or it will not fit her high requirements?

Quick start
Suggested 2 ways:
- You press the center of the rotary knob one press – 30 sec and that’s it.
- Turn clockwise the knob, selecting the desired time, 1 step – 10 seconds , and press the center of the knob.
Lock
An interesting feature that will be especially useful in families with small children:
The VEKTA TS720BRC microwave oven automatically locks in standby mode, so no one’s naughty hands can turn it on if they start turning the knob or pressing the cute buttons.
To unlock the device, you just need to open the door.
Automatic programs
To turn on the automatic cooking program, you just need to twist the knob counterclockwise, select the desired mode, set the weight and press start.
There are 6 modes in the arsenal:
- For drink and potatoes – you choose not the weight but the number of servings 1-3. In 1 serving of drink – 200 g, potatoes – 230 g.
- In the Heating mode you can select 200 – 700g 1 step – 100g .
- Fish – 200 – 600 gr 1 step – 100 gr
- Popcorn: 99 grams.
- Pizza – 150,300,450g.
On the display there is only the number of the program, no picture of the product, so you have to look in the manual or stick a sticker with a hint.
Defrosting
Suggested 2 options: by weight and by time.
- In the first case you press the snowflake button twice, set the weight of the food: from 100 to 1800 grams, and press start. The oven selects the time and power automatically.
- If the latter, you press the button once, turn the knob for the desired time and press start.
Delayed start
I’ve never needed this mode, but if you need the microwave to turn on at a certain time, you can.
You put a plate of food in the oven, select the number of minutes the oven is on, then set the desired time for example, 23:15 , press start. The clock will flash on the screen, and the oven will automatically start at the time you selected.
