I'm curious what part of the world you live in, a basic microwave can still be had for like $40 in my area
I'm in Canada!
I could probably get a $40 no-name microwave from Walmart or something, but I don't know if it'll last more than a couple of years and I don't really want to create more e-waste (hence "a decent one" in my og comment). I've been looking at Panasonic ones because those seem to be the ones people recommend for longevity.
Additionally, it's the combo air fryer/microwave that's troublesome to find under $250 here. I don't really have the counter or storage space currently to have multiple appliances, so my previous appliance was a huge convenience.
If any Canadians have any input or recommendations, I'd be happy to hear it!
You could check resale/thrift shops for both, especially for a microwave, and get them on the cheap. Do you have Goodwill in Canada?
I've been checking local thrift shops, they're just very sparse regarding electronics where I live, and the good/working ones usually get snapped up easily. Not willing to make a FB account just for marketplace, so I've resigned to buying new. Thank you though!
