First of all, not all microwaves are created equal, some are higher quality and will likely last longer than their cheaper counterparts. However, according to Consumer Reports , this device should last around nine years on average. One of the main factors that determines the lifespan of your microwave is how often you use it. A device that is subjected to an unusual workload is more likely to fail sooner than a device that is used a few times a week.
A microwave is powered by a device called a magnetron, which Viva Flavor says technically shuts itself off after 1,500 to 2,000 hours of use. That means your device will last just over six years if you use your microwave for about an hour a day. Aside from that, the lifespan of your microwave can be further shortened if you don't properly maintain the unit or put the wrong items in the microwave.
