The Russell Hobbs RHM2080BR black 20L microwave has one of the most futuristic designs that we’ve reviewed so far. It features a sleek black design with red handle and buttons, and we think it looks fantastic (if a little over the top). Aside from its appearance, it’s a relatively basic microwave with 800W power and a 20L capacity. Keep reading this Russell Hobbs RHM2080BR review for more information about the product’s features.
Russell Hobbs RHM2080BR Features
The 20L capacity of the Russell Hobbs RHM2080BR solo microwave makes it suitable for small households, but probably not large enough for big families. If you plan on cooking large meals in casserole dishes or on big dinner plates then this probably isn’t the right microwave. For reheating foods and ready meals, 20L is more than enough.
Other features of the Russell Hobbs RHM2080BR digital microwave include a weight defrost function, automatic cook settings, 800W power output and five different microwave power levels. The features of the microwave aren’t exciting, but for the relatively low price tag it appears to do the basics well.
Overview of features:
- Attractive and futuristic design
- 20L interior capacity
- 800W power output
- Weight defrost setting
- Automatic cook menus
