Review: Decent unit. Good buy. - This unit was larger than expected, which is good for me. Nice amount of room inside. Decent controls and seems to be made of quality material. I would recommend this product for anyone. It has a feature that I do not like, which entails that the unit has to be paused or the cooking canceled before you can open the door. But they have a setting in it programming that you can actually defeat that default feature. And it actually works for me. Yayy
Review: Offers fantastic performance, stylish design, and great value for the price. - I couldn’t be happier with my TOSHIBA EM131A5C-BS Countertop Microwave Oven! After a year of daily use, it has completely exceeded my expectations. First, the 1.2 cu ft capacity is perfect for a family kitchen. It easily fits a full-size dinner plate and even a medium casserole dish without any issues. The 12.4" removable turntable ensures everything heats evenly — no more cold spots in the middle of my leftovers! The 1100 watts of power really make a difference. Food heats quickly and consistently, whether I’m reheating coffee, defrosting chicken, or making popcorn. The pre-programmed sensor menu works surprisingly well — especially for popcorn and pizza. It automatically adjusts the time so I don’t have to guess. I also love the sleek black stainless steel finish. It looks modern and blends beautifully with my other appliances. The large digital display is easy to read, and the control panel is intuitive and user-friendly. The mute function is a small but amazing feature — no more loud beeping late at night! Cleaning is simple thanks to the easy-to-wipe interior. Overall, this microwave offers fantastic performance, stylish design, and great value for the price. If you’re looking for a reliable, powerful, and attractive countertop microwave, I highly recommend this one. Five stars!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it talk to you?**
A: I am going to clear up a small misconception here.  I am a totally blind man myself, and I have purchased this product knowing the feature set and I can tell you it doesn't talk.  This is a microwave that simply connects through a wi-fi connection and uses the MSmartHome app along with alexa to control the unit.  The alexa device will do the talking.  One has to follow the given instructions to connect the unit to the app and  the wifi to get it to work.  It doesn't have to talk to be used by us blind people unless you want one with a voice built in and there is only one or two I know of that have that feature.

**Q: does the interior Light stay on while cooking AND when you open the door?**
A: Yes

**Q: does light come on when door is opened?**
A: Yes and also when in use. Goes off when not in use.

**Q: Where are the vents on this model (i.e., how many inches from the front surface? Would like to build it but not compromise ventilation.**
A: Hi friend, thank you for your interests in Toshiba EM131A5C-SS. Here are our answers to your question. 
When you are facing the microwave, the vent is on the right side of the back of the microwave and on the left side of the microwave, one is the air inlet and the other is the air outlet.
Actually, this is a Countertop Microwave Oven, we do not recommend you use this model for any built-in application as it was not designed for that type of installation. However that will be OK if you make a proper installation, a minimum clearance of 3.0 inches (7.5cm) is required between the oven and any adjacent walls. Also, one side must be completely unenclosed.
Hope the information provided above could answer your concerns. If we could be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us via our phone number 855-204-5313 or write email to us at customercare@us.toshiba-lifestyle.com. Thanks again for your trust and confidence in Toshiba, and have a nice day.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Found a Great Microwave!
*by P***E on November 12, 2025*

Our Farberware microwave conked out had gotten from Kohl's 8 years ago. It lasted a good long time. It was malfunctioning, it started spinning without even pushing a button. We did not want to go without a microwave too long, its such an inconvenience. Looked under reviews on Amazon and I tell you what those reviews really helped me out. I decided on Toshiba, and it has been terrific! Almost have had it a week. It's got stuff on there that I have to read up on. It's works great, sounds great. When you leave seconds on there after reheating something. It'll clear out on its own minutes later, which is very cool. The sound is fine, the turntable, the size, its all great! I believe most are having those childproof lock situation things and this is fine. What we have to do is make sure to press and lift up on the handle & it opens. Nothing complicated at all. I would definitely refer everyone to this microwave!
