Microwave ovens & Microwave combi ovens
What did we do before microwave ovens and microwave combi ovens? We waited a lot, that’s for sure. Thank goodness for quick, convenient, energy efficient microwave ovens and microwave combi ovens. We have models with extra cooking functions and ones with built-in extractor fans, too.
Microwave ovens that make life simpler and tastier
A good microwave oven is more than just a way to reheat leftovers. It can be your shortcut to quick weekday dinners, your best friend for melting chocolate when baking, or even a partner for roasting and crisping when you choose a microwave combi oven. Whether you want a sleek built-in model in black or white, or a practical stainless steel design, there’s a style and function to suit every kitchen and cooking habit.
What’s the difference between microwave ovens and microwave combi ovens?
Both serve different needs, and knowing which works for you makes choosing much easier.
- Microwave ovens: best for reheating, defrosting, steaming vegetables or quickly cooking simple dishes.
- Microwave combi ovens: combine microwave power with features like forced air for baking, roasting and crisping. They can often replace or complement a traditional oven, especially in smaller kitchens.
If you often prepare full meals in one appliance, a combi model is worth the investment. If you’re mainly after speed and convenience, a standard microwave may be all you need.
Which style fits best in my kitchen?
Your kitchen design and space will guide your choice.
- Built-in microwaves: sit neatly within your cabinets for a seamless, integrated look. Perfect if you want to save counter space.
- Freestanding models: more flexible to place, easy to move if you rearrange.
When it comes to finishes:
- Black – bold and modern, makes a strong style statement.
- White – fresh, light, and blends into most kitchens effortlessly.
- Stainless steel – durable, timeless and easy to match with other appliances.
