Me too… sometimes just standing next to an outlet on the wall or holding anything plugged in i can taste and smell electric.. (Metallic like) i wasent always this way just for the past 3 years.. Anybody else seem to have a problem with microwaves…?? Everyone i get seems to malfunction around me.. Its not that i dont know how to operate them.. But the last one would get hot on the outside and not on the inside. I dont understand it.
