This tiny microwave is only 15" wide and 14" deep, making it one of the smallest microwaves in the market. Additionally, the rounded back allows it to be seamlessly placed in a corner without taking too much space.
This microwave doesn’t have any control dials, knobs, or number pads. Instead, it uses nine touch sensitive buttons with a simple display. For standard reheating, you only need to press the start button to activate the microwave for 30 seconds. The rest of the buttons are clearly labeled and are meant for popcorn, power level or defrosting.
As this oven lacks some premium features, such as moisture sensors, special pre-sets, and multi-stage cooking capabilities, it is suitable only for basic tasks.
The unit has a moisture sensor that can determine if the food is ready. This feature works very well with frozen foods, that it can cook evenly without any cold or overcooked spots.
This microwave has six auto-cook options to choose from. There are options for bacon, beverages, chicken nuggets, hot cereal, muffins, and frozen or fresh rolls.
The oven is capable of 1200 W of power, which is enough to bake a potato in 3 minutes. This means it's more powerful than the majority of the microwaves at the same price point.
The oven is TCP compliant, which allows for hassle-free microwave cooking. If the food you bought has a TCP code, just enter it in the microwave and it will cook the food with the proper settings automatically.
Priced at only $150.00, this microwave oven offers overall excellent performance. Additionally, its premium features, such as auto-cooking and TCP compliance, escalate its values even further.
There are special modes that allow you to melt or soften butter, cheese, chocolate, frozen juice, and other soft food. This reduces the risk of ruining the product by applying too much power.
The clock will turn itself off after 15 minutes. To see the time, you need to push the “stop/clear” button. This can be frustrating for people who use the microwave as a primary clock for their kitchen.
This microwave measures just 20 inches wide, 15 inches deep and 11 inches tall. This allows it to be used in tight spaces, like tiny kitchens, sheds, or caravans. Despite the small size, it still has 0.8 cu-ft. capacity, which is enough for a full-size dinner plate or a bowl.
This unit features automatic cooking and reheating that works accurately in most cases. The popcorn setting tends to overcook the popcorn, so it's better to keep an eye on it.
The most standout feature of this compact microwave is its ability to keep the food warm for up to 30 minutes. It achieves this by sending small microwave bursts to the food, without overcooking it.
Unlike most of today’s microwaves that use large square buttons with symbols, this one features long, horizontal buttons and a small dial, making it trickier to use. To use some of the options ou have to do more than just press a single button.
Although microwaves are primarily used for reheating food and cooking simple snacks, this one does way more. It has a built-in convection unit and a grill, making this a very versatile appliance that can bake cakes, roast a chicken and make grilled sandwiches. It even has a reversible grill rack.
You can pre-program the oven to shift between functions automatically. For example, you can defrost a dish, then have it set to convection roast, and finish it off with a grill to brown the top.
The oven has a total power of 1000 W for microwaving, 1500 W for convection cooking, and 1100 W for grilling. This makes it perfect for cooking large meals.
The 1.2 cu ft. cavity is spacious enough to handle big food items or large amounts of food. For example, it's big enough to fit and grill an entire chicken.
Because of the grilling feature, the oven produces lots of heat. It requires at least 4 inches of open space on both sides of the microwave to run safely.
