This Microwave Oven does have a turntable inside. The dimensions of the turntable are 10 3/4 inches.
The turntable in a microwave oven is driven by an alternating current motor which may start in either direction at random and continues to travel in that direction until stopping. The reason for using a turntable in a microwave oven is that the microwave energy is not evenly distributed across the oven. The turntable allows the food to receive an equal amount of energy by turning across the uneven microwave field. The microwave energy is turned to heat within the food. It actually does not matter in which direction the turntable rotates in order to evenly cook the food.
The turntable in a wirowave oven is there to rotate the food so that it is heated evenly, if the turntable was not there, food would be heated more on one side than the other.

The HEC Microwave Oven comes With the Glass Turntable
A turntable in a microwave oven rotates the food being warmed or cooked, with evenness of heating being the aim. A microwave oven is a sealed box, a Faraday cage, into which microwaves--nonionizing radiation of about 2.45 GHz frequency--are injected. The microwaves are generated by a magnetron and fed into the box at only one point via a waveguide. So better ovens will use a microwave stirrer, a turntable, or both to help the microwaves more evenly reach the food.
A microwave oven is an electrical appliance. About the only simple machine involved might be the turntable, which is a wheel and axle, and it could be argued that the door is a lever.
