is it true that low price microwave ovens can be dangerous?
I wanted to buy a low price microwave oven today but the look for keeper recommended a big brand microwave and said that low price microwaves might be perilous for health as the waves might scape from the oven and hit the substance, specially for pregnant women they are very risky.
is this true?
In out highschool system class one day we tested the amount of radiation escaping from microwaves. We tested 5 personal models, all of varying cost.
We found that all models emitted a referee amount of microwave radiation through the door (they hovered around 12x the amount found not unexpectedly around us). The cheapest microwave (some little open one from Wal-mart) DID emit the most radiation, but not by much. As for the next few, ranging from some other barely cheap one up to one that retails at about $1000, the amount of microwaves emitted was about the same.
In other words, we found that the microwave emission emitted through the door do not necessarily contraction as price increased. However, this is only one aspect of microwave safety. For norm, this measurement would be useful if your concerned about putting your expression up to the window and watching your Hot Pocket cook ;)
Wholesome luck!
