1. It's unique. Every other microwave I've ever seen (with the exception of the Sharp Half-Pint) looks pretty much the same: a horizontal rectangle with a door and a keypad control panel to the right. The bottom controls and lack of numeric pad make this thing look entirely different, and in a good way. (Don't worry about the lack of a keypad, the controls are a no-brainer.) When you unbox it and see the rounded back, you know you've bought something different from the norm.
2. It's big inside. Bigger than my old GE compact for round things, and I've just never had the urge to throw a 9x13 pan in my microwave. (I have yet to try it with popcorn, manual says limit it to the 1.75 ounce size.)
3. It's powerful. 1:30 on high heats up a cup of water better than my old one. Good enough for me.
4. The LED display is blue. Very cool, in my opinion.
5. The interior light goes on when you open the door. Some small microwaves only light up while you're cooking.
6. You can use the timer and cook simultaneously. Pretty standard, but some don't. Also, you can adjust the timer and the cook time on the fly by hitting + or -, no need to stop and reset. And you can toggle between the timer and the clock if you want.
7. No door release button. You just grab the recessed edge of the door and pull. And it feels solid when you shut it.
8. The reminder tone shuts off. Yes, it reminds you when you forget to pull something out, but it shuts up after three reminders and reverts to the clock. (I swear my old microwave displayed "End" most of the time.)
9. Limited features. The only "special" features are defrost, reheat, popcorn, and power level (100%, 75%, 50%, 25%, and the power-saving 0%). I've never used anything more.
10. I'm running out of ideas, but to make a nice round 10, I'll point out that the door is about two inches thick with a space between an inner and outer window. This gives it a kind of "window-box" look that I like a lot.
Hope this helps convince everybody to pull the trigger and buy this microwave. You won't regret it!
NOTE: The display panel comes covered in a clear plastic film that is pretty easy to miss when you're unpacking. I didn't see it and was highly alarmed after a couple of days when the start button started to look and feel cracked! Further investigation revealed the protective film, which easily peeled off to reveal a pristine panel underneath.

The curved back allows it to be tucked in the corner.
One of the impressive features is the defrost feature that works so well!
Everyone that visit's us loves the design and want to buy one. Only downside its it's expensive for what it is. I guess you pay for the space saving.
