Highpointe=Junk.
Have had two Highpointe microwaves in fairly new trailers just die completely for no apparent reason. When they fail smoke pours from the vent near the controls and it reminds you of that Lionel train ozone smell.
Most appliances or things selected by an RV manufacturer are obtained from the lowest irresponsible bidder. Performance/reliability usually gets sacrificed for low cost . Rip it out and replace it with something decent....like a Samsung.
