Replacement glass plate of Microwave oven

Post by greenhorn » Fri Mar 07, 2008 4:15 pm

Hello,

Unfortunately I broke the glass plate(the thing that rotates and we keep stuff on the top of it) of my Micro. Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement ? The micro is LG.

Thanks,

Prolly cheaper just to buy a new oven. Spares for cheap machines are notoriously difficult to come by, the problem is that the components vary greatly between models and are manufactured so far away, that it isn't worth a store stocking spare glass plates for every different model of microwave oven, just on the off chance that someone needs one :(
Political correctness is the belief that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

Broke mine too a few years ago. Found a small shop (Kuopio) that had several spare once.
But one plate costed about 25 Euro.

Another alternative is to check out the flea markets and huuto.net and look for the same model, use it for spare parts (well the glass plate anyway)

Yeah, it might be bit difficult. The new microwave costs around 100 Euros I guess. This one is also pretty new, sad.

Thanks for the replies, I will try out the options now.

I ve seen some plates at Tarjoustalo. Most of them are standard plates for a range of Mwaves ( 1.7 - 2.5 )
Also try Hongkong.
I think I bought one as a gift with a Mwave that didnt have one.

Ok, sorry, so it might only be in Turku and i miss spelled it. It is Turun Ekotori They sell used everything, from home apliances to funature and knick knacks. I love it we have gotten a great dressing table and mirror for our doughter and three big bookshelves for the husband's office. The web site is http://www.turunekotori.fi/.
