Microwave Ovens

Microwave ovens are designed for cooking and reheating food. While this sounds similar to the functions of a standard microwave, microwave ovens differ by incorporating both the technology for generating microwaves and an insulated cooking chamber. In turn, microwave ovens are more effective at cooking food, providing even results. What's more, microwave ovens typically include a wider variety of cooking options, allowing you to forgo the oven!

How do I decide between a standard microwave, a microwave with grill and a combination microwave?

Think about what you want it to do. A basic microwave is perfect for reheating and simple cooking, while a microwave with grill adds crisping and browning for dishes like cheese on toast. A combination microwave pairs microwave cooking with full oven functions so you can actually roast or bake and potentially forgo a separate oven, for example the Hotpoint HCW7O7HTSXUK 950W combination model. If you want everyday speed plus occasional baking and roasting, a combination model is the most versatile; if you only reheat or defrost, a standard microwave will do.

What size of built-in microwave will fit a standard 60cm kitchen unit and work with your plates?

Most built‑in microwaves on the list have a width around 594–596mm so they slot into a standard 60cm housing. Check the height too—compact built‑ins are often around 371–390mm tall while larger combination units reach 455–459mm. For dinner plates, look at the turntable diameter: common sizes include 315mm and 325mm; if you use very large platters choose a model with a larger turntable or one listed as N/A, which often indicates a flatbed design. Measure your cabinet depth and the microwave depth (many are 316–338mm, some much deeper) before ordering.

What microwave power and cavity capacity suit a family kitchen?

For family use you'll want higher power and a larger cavity. Many models range from 800–900W and several go up to 1000W—higher wattage speeds cooking and gives better results for defrosting and reheating. Cavity sizes vary from 17 litres for compact units up to 53 litres for larger combination ovens; aim for 25–36 litres if you want to reheat large plates and cook family meals without crowding. For example, a 900W, 35 litre model will heat food quickly and accommodate larger dishes.

Will the finish of a built-in microwave match my kitchen appliances?

Yes, there are plenty of finishes to suit different schemes—black, stainless steel, black with stainless trim, graphite grey and combinations are all available. Brands like Neff offer black models with steel or graphite trims so you can match them to your oven or hob, and Bosch and AEG provide sleek stainless options. If your kitchen has a bold black handleless look, a black or graphite microwave will blend in; if you have stainless appliances, choose stainless or a model with steel trim for continuity.

Why might you choose a compact 700-800W microwave instead of a full-size 900-1000W model?

Compact models save space and suit smaller households or kitchen units where height is limited; examples include the Prima PRCM112 700W mini microwave and other 800W compact built‑ins with heights around 371–390mm. They usually have smaller cavities (17–21 litres) and lower power, which is fine for reheating, defrosting and simple cooking but less ideal for large dishes. If you want to slot the appliance into a shallow or tall cupboard, or you rarely cook full meals in the microwave, a compact model will be more convenient and still efficient.
