Please recommend a simple microwave?

My ~ 20 old LG blew a fuse last night because some debris got in the track, replaced fuse and it works OK, but may be on it’s last legs.  I’ve looked at a few reviews and one reviewer said his £70 Panasonic only lasted 2 years, a Tower one had a black dial with grey lettering so it was difficult to read, and another couldn’t be set for less than around 4 mins.  Hence, can anyone recommend a WHITE (why anyone wants a black one in the kitchen, I never understand, maybe a bar!) simple microwave, a 2 knob version would be great but a simple digital one would be acceptable too.  I am self isolating and so can’t see the microwave irl before I buy it.

    Looks like there are only two white microwaves listed by “Which?” shown as Best Buys at present.

    Remember that they do not test EVERY microwave on the market and none are without any drawbacks, irrespective of colour.

     

    Panasonic NN-CT55JWBPQ   Score 81%

    Toshiba MM-EM20P(WH)     Score 74%

    If you are on a tight budget, although it doesn't score highly enough to be a best buy, you could look at the Asda GMM001W-18 with a score of 71% but its a bit small inside.
