My Microwave Gets Really Hot On The Outside. Even When On For Two Minutes.
Is it normal for the microwave to get so hot on the outside. It is too hot to touch. Or is there something wrong with it. Is it a possible fire hazard? The longest time set was a cup of water for two minutes. I just purchased it last week. What should I do? Use it or lose it?
Thanks, Brenda
Thanks
