After a month, the microwave started to make loud buzzing noises while in use. It still heats the food, though. Is it normal?

Is it possible the side has panel has come loose? I think mine is doing the same thing.

Mine has not changed the noise it makes since the first use. It does make more noise ( buzzing) than the over the stove built in.

I havent noticed any sound out of the ordinary since I bought it. It is not a quiet microwave but I havent noticed it being any louder than my GE Elite microwave that I have at my other house.

My microwave was doing the same thing and then all of a sudden it went out and didnt work anymore. I'm returning it because there is a 90 day factory warranty.

I have the larger model. I have cooked White and GABA brown on this. It is not very loud. There is a low hum while it is cooking/prepping from the internal fan, which sounds like my laptop when it isn't working very hard. If yours sounds like a grinding noise I would suspect that either something is in your fan causing it to grind, or you otherwise have a faulty fan. I don't think there are other components in there which are capable of making loud noises. Unless there is some process of induction cooking for which I am unaware that might cause this.

I have the same problem too. I just bought this LED 55 in for 2 months and it is making horrible buzzing sound. With the backlight setting to 10, the sound is very obvious, and it will get louder as I watch TV longer, like more than 1 hour.I bought service warranty with Frys, the technician came in and tried to replace the power supply because he thought it was the problem. Turn out the problem was not caused by the power supply but the TV itself he said.I just opened a ticket against Samsung, the Engineer will come over next week to take a look.

Hi, I have only had that happen when I use the unit for an hour of more. I reckon that the quality of the product varies, and your unit may be overheating more than normal.

I had sparking in the microwave the first time I used the tray. I think the chips were to thin. The tray melted a bit. Nothing happened to the microwave.

Compared to other microwaves I've owned, I would not say it is noisy. The thumping and bumping you normally hear as the magnetron cycles on and off is actually less noticeable, IMO.

I don't notice a noise in the speakers until I turn off the tv and leave it on then it makes noise. As for overheating, I just touched the back of mine and the metal is hot but it hasn't overheated yet and it's been in since the day I wrote the post. I'm sorry if that doesn't help

I have not noticed it being particularly noisy and we use if all the time. Great microwave but we haven't used the steam feature once:(

I have the microwave on a cart so it does make noise. In my opinion not too quiet.

Yes- It's probably normal not a defect. I've had similar appliances in the past and they all make a hum.

Yes mine did as well. It made a buzzing noise and got hot as well. I just stopped using it. It is a very poor product and I will not be ordering anything from them again.

Have not experienced your issues. No, DO NOT attempt a repair yourself. Please seek a qualified local appliance repair shop. It is normal for metal to "Make Sounds" when heated or cooled. If these "sounds" are new, different, unsafe, or not up to your standards, also consider replacement due to cost of estimated repairs.

Hi, Haven't had ours for long enough to have any problems. However, knowing what little I know about electrical heating elements, if it's making noise that's probably not a good sign. Would take the time to send it in either for repair or replacement. These aren't complicated devices, but the potential for fire is always lurking the background. Don't want to overkill, but wouldn't take any chances... Jay Miller

Its been my experience that they do get warm depending on the size. But electrical buzzing I've never encountered. If it gets hot like alarmingly so then I'd err on the side of caution and send it back for a new one. Mass production has its limits i guess.

I have mine internally venting as we speak. The fan is quite powerful and has no problem gathering any smoke that develops. I've been using my microwave since this past Christmas and so far, i haven't had any problems. I'm sure, however, that something like burnt oil would be a problem. Fyi- it's very important to keep the filters clean.

Mine did that too from day one. The box it came in was damaged and I assume that is what caused the weird noises. It wasn't worth the time and money to ship it back so I just used it until it started giving me uneven heat. Then I junked it.

I do 2 mins every time and mine comes out piping hot. It may be the wattage of your microwave. I would read through the manual to see what it recommends.
