Microwave ovens may leak due to a variety of reasons, including normal wear & tear.
Grease & food particles may also contribute to microwave leakage around the seals hinges.
Check your microwave oven and cook with confidence.

This meter is specifically designed to detect radiation at the level that the CENTER FOR DEVICE & RADIOLOGICAL HEALTH has deemed hazardous.
Highly potent microwave energy created by domestic microwave ovens
is capable of penetrating living tissue to a depth of approximately 1.18"
(30mm). Microwaves may easily pass through porcelain, glass, ceramics and most
plastics.
It is of critical importance that ALL microwave ovens are periodically
checked to ensure that no damage or malfunction has occurred since the time your
microwave left the factory. Microwave leakage around door seals, hinges and
metal fittings is far from uncommon.
These
meters are tested prior to shipping. If there is no leak present the needle will
not move. It operates similar to a radio receiver and is tuned for the frequency
microwave ovens utilize to heat food. DO NOT PLACE METER inside microwave oven.
This could cause damage to the meter & the microwave oven.
