Having to replace the turntable of my new microwave, Ariston was very responsive to my requests for information and have acted promptly to find a replacement. Thank you Emma!
Awesome Microwave & Grill
Our 13 year old Panasonic 1100W Inverter would not close properly anymore and so would not start (at least we knew the safety function worked). After extensive research we settled on purchasing this model (Ariston MWA25B) from Harvey Norman for $330. In summary, this is great value for the price you pay and has excellent features that most other microwaves do not have.
- 800W microwave works really well at heating things evenly. Far better and more even that our previous Panasonic and with a lower consumption of power.

Finally a microwave that cooks the food evenly
The Ariston MWA25B Microwave & Grill is packed with heaps of features like, Dual Crisp System ensuring perfectly crisp results from top to bottom, Chef menu with 17 pre-set programmes, Electronic programmer, Auto Clean and Stylish black glass finish design. Who would have thought you could ever get crispy bacon and pizza bases in a microwave oven buts it’s true using the included dynamic crispy plate, in fact you can cook a whole restaurant quality big breakfast using the crispy plate. This is the first microwave we have purchased that evenly c

The basic functions are pretty easy and once you practise and master all the other functions you will be cooking like a professional chef in no time impressing your friends and family. Highly, recommend also purchasing the optional accessories of the dynamic crispy cake tin and a couple of microwave steamers.Purchased in at Harvey Norman Online for $369.95.

Noisy, table vibrates, won't shut up!
Yes it is a working microwave. I think the crisping functions are less useful for some people but could work for those interested. It looks modern. But the table vibrates even after reseating several times. And the worst feature, which will likely cause me to replace this model, is that it won't shut up! After the cycle ends it keeps beeping, and turning, and beeping, and turning, and beeping, and turning, and beeping, and turning, and beeping, and turning, and beeping, and turning. Yes that was annoying to read wasn't it? Imagine having to listen to it, worse than a nagging partner. Please, someone tell me how to turn it off!

The Versatile Microwave
We were looking for a replacement for our Crisp'n'Grill microwave with basically a change of colour to match kitchen makeover. We still wanted the crisp'n'grill functions as it provides so much versatility to your microwave.Luckily we were shopping at Harvey Norman, Loganholme Qld and found the Ariston, MWA25B.
It uses the crisp'n'grill technology from our previous microwave but with added features with the touch pad to give added flexibility with its use. Now we can use programs for defrosting including bread,reheating and dynamic crisping.

Microwave with a difference
The MWA25B offers more functions than most standard microwaves. I have successfully used the dynamic crisp option to make toasted sandwiches, potato wedges and home made pizzas. The wattage (800 watts) is a bit less than my previous microwave but it heats food evenly so it is worth the extra wait time.

MWA25b fantastic - recommended A++
The MWA25b dynamic crisp is easy to use and the design suits any kitchen. The microwave being 800 watt makes cooking quicker and easier than my previous microwave, food is evenly heated and tastes great with many options including grill, combo grill and auto clean, recommended A++

The dynamic crisp actually works.
The dynamic crisp actually works and the programing is easy to use. It is a little slower but the results are worth the wait the food is heated evenly and tastes a lot better than the food done in the old microwave I had, frozen pizza comes out like it had been done in a conventional oven.

Excellent product! Works a treat!
The MWA25b is an excellent appliance and has worked wonders in our household. The 800W Microwave option heats foods evenly, without burning or overcooking. The Grill Function makes perfect grilled cheese sandwiches. The Dynamic Crisp is a FANTASTIC addition, cooking pizzas and delicious lasagnes, by browning cheese evenly. The product is very versatile and has fantastic cooking options within the Chef Menu setting.The crisp plate and grill rack are fantastic additions and of great value. The product is practical for our 'small-living' lifestyle, and allows us more room in the kitchen with both the microwave and grill option. The design is stylish and elegant and we are overall satisfied with our product.

Can't live without Crisp function!
I love my new Ariston Chef Plus MWA25B. Although I found it a little bit noisier than my previous Whirlpool Crisp and Grill, this one cooks food a lot faster. The Dynamic Crisp function is suberb. I would buy this product again just to have this function.

Great new addition to our kitchen appliances
We had the opportunity to replace our old microwave oven when it gave up the ghost after many years service late into 2019. Upon research and asking our friends with microwave ovens, we chose the Ariston MWA25B for our new kitchen friend. Once we got our head around how different and more efficient our new microwave is compared to the older model, we are finding it so much more versatile than we were expecting.
It has now become a well used and versatile addition to our kitchen.

Love it!
We've had this microwave for a few weeks now and are really happy with it - the dynamic crisp function is fantastic to keep things crispy. The lady at Harvey Norman was also a big fan of the microwave and gave us a few ideas to try with regard to recipes. It looks pretty slick also and is a good, compact size.

Awesome Product
The microwave is fantastic so far! I love that you can crisp food up in there. It is the best when it is only one person and there is no need to use the big oven. It is a sleek design and surprisingly quite nice with my new kitchen! Still getting used to some features but so far so good.

Quality with a wide range of features.
We have been using this Ariston microwave for just a few weeks. As it has much more than a basic microwave the design and construction is the best we have seen. With upper AND lower magnetrons the heating comes from two sources for a superior cooking process.
Further to this it has a quartz element grill for sizzling those tasty snacks or even a whole chicken. Then a specially designed microwave hot plate and stand to elevate items closer to the grill element for toasting things like ham, cheese and tomato sandwiches.
All this does take a littl

Fantastic Features!
I am still learning about my Ariston MWA25B but love the dynamic crisp and grill functions which you don't get in most microwaves. No more soggy pastry or pizza crust and cooking bacon under the grill keeps all of the grease splatter inside which is easy to clean.
