Bummer!
You might need to contact the manufacturer. My mum was forever warning me to be very careful not to drop ours when I cleaned it because they're so expensive to replace, eek! Hope thats not true in your case! ------------- Mel, Mummy to E: 6, B: 4 and:

Depending on what brand/model your microwave is, you may have to take a visit to a local small appliance store and ask them if they can order one in for you. -------------

I had a Warehouse microwave that the tray smashed on and I just rang them and they ordered one in for me. I think it was about $50 tho, ouch! -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

My hubby is a tv tech, and repairs microwaves, and always has plenty to sell, so check out your small appliance fixers! ------------- The Honest Un PC Parent of 2, usually stuck in the naughty corner! :P |

I would check out TM for plates, surely people have microwaves go bust and decide to try for a couple of $$ from the plate? ------------- |

Not all plates fit in all microwaves though, we had one lady (at my last job) explode her microwave because the plate wasn't turning properly  -------------

When ours broke in our old MW we just used a dinner plate for a few months till we got a new MW. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |
