A Built in Microwave Oven Combo Offers Convenience and Versatility

A built in microwave oven combo provides the best of both worlds by making your microwave and oven into one unit. They can help you save counter space and give your kitchen an elegant appearance.

These models come with powerful broilers, which cook food evenly. The microwaves can also heat food quickly. They also have a wide range of options for cooking different foods.

Size

A built in microwaves-in microwave and wall oven combination is a fantastic solution for kitchens of all kinds. It combines the convenience of a microwave with the versatility of wall ovens. Explore our complete selection of combination microwaves and wall ovens to find the best fit for your home. Be sure to read the cutout specifications and installation instructions for the model you select to ensure it will work in your space. Our microwave and oven sets include both oven and microwave models that come in a variety of styles, colors and finishes that can be incorporated into any decor. Look for features like smart and convenient controls, a power cook function, and built in microwave and grill-in self-cleaning to save you time.

Convenience

A microwave oven with built-in features will free up counter space and give your kitchen a sleeker look. Because it acts as a microwave in addition to a traditional oven, you can heat up leftovers, frozen food items and meals that are pre-packaged in one appliance. It also eliminates the need for an additional countertop appliance or bulky stand-alone wall oven. If you are looking to upgrade your home without having to undertake major changes, a microwave and a convection oven is a great choice.

Microwave oven combos are available in different styles to suit your kitchen decor. Certain microwave oven combos come with doors that swing out right to left, while others are drop-down models that open the same way as traditional ovens. You can also find microwave ovens with the drawer design that opens as a cabinet. The microwave drawers are easy to reach and are ideal for small spaces where you need to minimize the use of counter space.

Combination microwaves also have many features that can help you prepare your meals faster and more convenient. Some models feature a sensor steam mode that alters the temperature and time of your food in order to ensure you get perfect steamed fish and vegetables. Other features include a broil feature that allows you to quickly melt cheese or cook your favorite food, [Redirect Only] as well as Crispwave(tm) technology that can grill or bake food and make it crisp.

When selecting a microwave oven combination, make sure to take into consideration how often you'll use each function. If you'll be using the oven part of your combo more than the microwave, you might be better off using a double wall oven. A combo appliance is smaller in capacity than an oven that is a standalone unit.

After you've chosen the right microwave and oven combination that meets your needs, it's time to think about how you will install it. Over-the range models are mounted over your cooktop or stove, and [Redirect-302] plug into an electrical outlet. Built-in microwaves can be incorporated into the walls or cabinets of your kitchen. Some models even have trim kits that allow you to effortlessly blend your new microwave with the cabinets in your kitchen.

Energy Efficiency

Built-in microwave and oven built in combo ovens are a great choice for those who have smaller kitchens in their home or apartment. They can save on cabinet space that would otherwise be taken up by two separate appliances, and they can also help to reduce energy consumption. They generally provide a more efficient cooking method than traditional wall ovens, as they tend to use less energy. They can also be used to cook food and warm dishes. This means that there is less requirement for other appliances, such as toasters or warming plates.

When evaluating possible amendments to energy conservation standards, DOE conducts several analyses that include assessment of technology and market conditions screening analysis, engineering analysis and national impacts analysis (NIA). In this SNOPR, DOE will draw on its existing engineering analysis on microwave ovens to determine what level of efficiency improvements are technologically feasible for this particular product.

In the engineering analysis, DOE will compare the design parameters of a microwave against an energy performance set of objectives. The engineering analysis will then determine the maximum improvement in energy efficiency that is technologically feasible based on the most advanced microprocessor-controlled model available on the market or in working prototypes, or the maximum reduction in energy consumption that is technically achievable with the current technologies available for this product class.

As part of NIA, DOE will assess the impacts on consumers, such as the cost savings over the lifecycle, as well as the simple payback period (PBP). DOE will use its Government Regulatory Impact Model with an adaptation for microwave ovens to calculate industry net present value ("NPV").

DOE will also evaluate the impacts on manufacturers, and will employ an altered industry cash flow model adapted to this product type to estimate manufacturing NPV. In addition, DOE will consider the potential impact on small business manufacturers and other manufacturer subgroups to determine if they could be disproportionately affected by these proposals.

DOE will also consider whether the test procedure for microwave ovens needs to be updated in order to include active mode power consumption as well as an energy use measure. At present, the tests only cover standby mode power consumption.

Design

Wall ovens rely on the circulation of hot air evenly while microwaves make use of waves to cause water molecules in food to vibrate and generate heat. Combination wall units combine both appliances into one unit, reducing space in the kitchen while providing a modern and sleek design. However, it is important to think about your needs and budget before deciding to purchase a combination wall oven. A few of the combo wall ovens in our ratings have issues with performance or design.
