Microwave worth fixing??

we have an 11 year old jenn-air convection microwave that needs a new magnetron (thank u for those who helped in suggesting that was the problem). my husband is not handy enough to fix himself. it'd cost $400.

i'm using my "help from the audience" card here....what would u do? buy a new one or replace magnetron? thanks!

Might help to add "Microwave fix" to the thread title

An 11 year old microwave should definitely be replaced.

Buy a new one.

I got a perfectly good one on the local facebook page for like $50

Buy new. No question.

thanks for your help everyone. any suggestions on where you buy your appliances? thanks!
