Reclaim Counter Space With a Built in Microwave and Double Oven

A built in microwave and grill-in microwave and double oven can allow you to reclaim counter space while adding an elegant appearance to your kitchen. When purchasing an appliance be sure to consider the power level and design, the control features and other features that suit your preferences in cooking.

Contrary to counter-top models, built in microwave with grill-ins integrate into your walls and cabinets for seamless appearance. Some come with trim kits to ensure an ideal fit.

Undercounter Microwave Drawers

Microwave drawers are the newest fashion in kitchen design. They provide more flexibility than countertop or over-the-range models. They fit into lower cabinets under countertops, on top of the kitchen island, or above a wall oven to create an elegant appearance. They can be opened instead of moving on hinges, making it easier for chefs who are left-handed to reach them.

These sleek appliances are an excellent choice for homeowners who want to make space on their counters, increase storage space in their kitchens, or make them more open. While they cost more than traditional microwaves, many homeowners feel that the high-end design and performance are worth the extra cost.

Contrary to a conventional countertop or over-the-range model microwave drawers have a flat front and are flush with your cabinetry. This makes them a great option to make a custom kitchen design. The installation of a microwave drawer in an existing kitchen is also feasible. If you are planning a complete kitchen remodel consider a microwave cabinet in the planning stage and have it installed alongside your new kitchen cabinets and appliances.

Microwave drawers can also be used by those who are unable to reach a microwave over the range or on a countertop. They have a low front that can be opened and closed with the push of a single button. They're even easier to use for short people or those with back problems who may have difficulty lifting heavy dishes into a microwave that is over the range.

The drawbacks of a microwave drawer are its cost that is more expensive than a countertop or over-the range microwave, and the fact that it does not allow for built in microwave and double oven convection. They also lack an adjustable turntable, which could be a hassle for those who prefer stirring their food while it's heating or need to fit oval containers that would not fit on a microwave plate.

Lastly, a microwave drawer isn't as simple to clean as a countertop or over-the-range microwave because there are no exposed scrubbing surfaces. To maintain its pristine appearance it is recommended to clean the microwave drawer clean with a damp cloth.

Convection Cooking

Convection cooking allows your dishes to cook faster and more evenly. Convection uses a fan and exhaust to circulate hot air from the oven throughout your food.

There are two main types of double ovens: range-style and wall mounted. Both are beneficial however the best choice will depend on your kitchen layout and design preferences. For example, a wall-mounted double oven can be mounted at an appropriate height, while a range-style unit can be integrated into your kitchen's cabinetry for an elegant and seamless look.

Check for sales and discounts and second-hand models that have been restored to a like-new condition. Additionally, keep in mind that appliances with advanced features and technologies tend to be more expensive than their basic counterparts.
