I accidentally put plastic that had a magnet in it in the microwave and it exploded? Do I need a new microwave

Answer 1

If it was only the magnet that exploded, I'd clean up the microwave and continue to use it. But if it was the microwave that exploded, you'd better go shopping.

Answer 2

umm...if i were you, i wont use the "exploded" microwave again because--:
1) i'm not sure if it will "explode" again anot
2) the plastic may release toxins during the "explosion"?
3) will the "exploded" microwave be able to produce "safe food"?

the best is to change a new one if u really need it.

Answer 3

If it still works I'd say no need to replace it.
