I remember when a technician worked on my 1.6 cu. ft. micro. , he put in a glass of water and said it should heat in about a minute and a half. It seems to take about 2 minutes now. However, I am not sure the amount of water that was used by the tech. Thanks, Jerry

Keep in that this will vary with each model depending on the wattage of the microwave. [URL="http://www.appliance-repair-it.com/microwave-repair.html"][/URL]
