Before throwing away that broken microwave, save the glass dish that is inside. It has many uses. At the moment I am using one under one of my large houseplants to protect my floor from any water overflow. My daughter uses one as a food platter when having parties. Use one as a tray as long as you are careful - some are heavy. These glass dishes can serve many purposes, just use your imagination.

I place my cat's water and food dishes on an old microwave glass place.
Yep. Been reusing microwave turntable for quite awhile now. I just hate to throw out anything that might be useful for any other purpose beyond their original use!
During our recent snow storm, I had to get creative in order to keep the birdies fed. I put their food on an old oblong glass try and put a fold up tray over it.
In country areas people use the microwave as a rain proof letterbox.
I use mine when I need a tray for a pot-luck. I figure if it gets broken or I don't get it back, no big deal. My 22-year-old microwave probably won't last much longer, and then I'll have two trays.
