And this is a cheap one!! Commercial microwaves were another story!! . . . "in 1947, the first commercial microwave oven hit the market. These primitive units where gigantic and enormously expensive, standing 5 1/2 feet tall, weighing over 750 pounds, and costing about $5000 each."

Wow, and it took 40 years to catch on? They really didn't hit the homes until the 80s!

My dad got my mom a MONSTER Panasonic one in the early 80's. Darn thing cost him about $350. They didn't come down much.
