- "HIALEAH - At BrandsMart USA, a low-end model Magic Chef microwave costs $28.88.
Hurricane victims could buy six of them with the $181.75 the federal government pays to replace a microwave damaged by a storm.
That's also enough purchasing power to take home two sleek, black and steel microwave-toaster combos made by Magic Chef and sold at The Home Depot for $79.99 each."
