Choosing a Microwave Oven Builtin

A built-in microwave could be an ideal option if you're bored of freestanding models that occupy space on your worktop. Designed to sit within cabinets, with some flush installation options available for an elegant look, they help keep your kitchen clean.

Even though features such as sensor cooking and pre-programmed settings are useful, choose only one that comes with features you'll actually use. Don't forget to think about the cost of installation. This should be handled by professionals.

Size

To ensure you select the best integrated microwave model for your space, you should take into consideration the size of the cabinet and kitchen when selecting the built-in microwave. Microwaves are usually available in 27 and 24,and 30-inch widths in order to adhere to standard sizes for cabinets. It is important to take into consideration the capacity, since it will determine the quantity of meal you can prepare in a given time.

Another factor to consider when choosing a microwave is the cost. Microwaves can be purchased in various price ranges according to the size, features, and brand you choose. In addition to the cost of the appliance, you'll also need to think about the installation costs. Freestanding microwaves are cheaper to buy and install, as they are simply placed on the counter.

Power

The cooking power of microwaves (wattage), determines how quickly and efficiently your food will be cooked. Higher watts tend to cook faster, but less expensive models can still satisfy the majority of requirements. We recommend choosing a microwave that has at least 1,000 Watts. Microwaves with a lower wattage are less likely to cook evenly, and may take longer to warm food than microwaves with more watts.

To determine the power of your microwave, consult your user's manual or check the serial number plate on the inside. You can also examine the wattage of different models to help you pick the most suitable one to meet your household's needs.

Microwaves can be designed to fit inside cabinets, or installed into the wall to give a more integrated look. Some of these come with high-end features for an elegant look and feel.

But, you'll have to ensure that the microwave you pick is suitable for the space you want to use it. You'll have to measure the space to ensure you can find an appliance that has the capacity that matches your needs. The bigger the microwave needs to be in order to accommodate dishes, the greater power you need.

Convection

Convection is a feature that allows microwave ovens to bake or brown food in addition to heating. The fan and heating element of the microwave oven work together to circulate hot dry air around food items inside the microwave, just like an oven. This helps the appliance cook food more evenly.

Microwave Oven Built-in radiation is emitted from the magnetron in a small chamber in the oven, generating microwaves that cook and heat the food. Microwaves are electromagnetic radiation that is not ionizing, and have been proven not to cause cancer in long-term rodent studies. Contrary to conventional ovens which emit high-energy radiation that can cause burns, the microwaves generated by microwave ovens are emitted through the door of the oven, and do not pose an immediate risk to safety.

Uneven heating in a microwaved dish could be caused by the various rates of energy absorption from the various parts of the food, as well through the vibration. This problem can be addressed by stirring the food or using a rotating turntable that turns the dish as it cooks.

Some builtin microwaves are designed to fit in the kitchen cabinet to provide a seamless appearance and easy access. Trim kits are available for these models to close any gaps that might exist between the microwave and the cabinet. This gives the model a seamless finish. There are also countertop models that are placed on kitchen counters and plug directly into a power outlet. Countertop models can be used to replace a countertop oven, or can be combined with a microwave for an appliance that can be used in two ways to maximize space. Some countertop models feature a pull-out drawer that can be closed and opened with the touch of a button for even easier access.

Some manufacturers offer models with touch screens for added convenience. Some come with finishes like stainless steel with PrintShieldTM, which resists fingerprints and smudges. A microwave tray that is dishwasher-safe makes cleaning easier.

Microwave ovens heat food using electromagnetic waves with very short wavelengths by vibrating molecules directly inside the cooking chamber. The technology was developed following World War II using radar technology that was used during the conflict. The radiation produced by the microwave isn't ionizing and does not pose a health risk when the oven door is closed and latched properly.

A built-in microwave is placed in place of a countertop model or an under-counter model, and can be integrated into an over-the-range or wall oven. Installing the appliance can be done by an expert. It may be necessary to replace a cabinet panel in order to accommodate the new appliance, based on the space you have. It is also important to consider whether the cabinet you have currently installed is able to manage the airflow and noise that a microwave could generate.

A venting system will guarantee that the appliance is safe, and will reduce the chance of carbon dioxide poisoning.
