    This might sound crazy, but when the kids are asleep I hold the microwave door button in as I shut it. It’s pretty darn quiet

    Buy the thinnest adhesive weather stripping you can find, and stick a patch in the appropriate place between the door and latch area. That’s the zone that makes the KERCHUNK.

    I also never understood why microwaves need to be so loud. My dishwasher, hell even my washing machine are very quiet in comparisson.

      Whenever I accidentally make a loud noise late at night, I always have to say “jee-sus” under my breath, just in case anyone heard it they know it wasn’t my intention.

    Got this as a wedding gift over 3 years ago.

    Absolutely love it and the door is self closing. You can slam it and it catches itself and shuts on its own. I assume that is what you mean.

    Reason I’m asking is I am wanting to buy one. I find most of them so jolting I have put off having one for a long time.
