A Built in Microwave Oven Combo Offers Convenience and Versatility

A built in microwave oven combo provides the best built in microwave of both worlds by combining your microwave and wall oven into one appliance. They can help free up space on your countertops and give your kitchen a sleek design.

These models are equipped with powerful broilers that cook food evenly. The microwaves can also allow food to be cooked quickly. They also offer a wide variety of cooking options to cook various foods.

Size

A 45cm built-in microwave microwave and wall oven combination is a great solution for many kitchens. It offers the convenience of a microwavable with the flexibility of wall ovens. Explore our collection of wall ovens with combination microwaves to find the best built in combi microwave solution for your home. Make sure you check the cutout specifications of your chosen unit and the installation guide to make sure it will fit in your space. Our microwave & wall oven combinations feature both wall oven and microwave models that are available in a variety of styles, colors, and finishes to complement any style. Look for features like easy and efficient controls as well as a power cook feature, and built-in self-cleaning to help you save time.

Convenience

A built-in microwave oven combination can save space on your kitchen counters and give a stylish look to your space. Because it functions 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 can also eliminate the need for an additional countertop appliance or a the bulky wall oven that is a stand-alone unit. A microwave-microwave combination can also be a good choice for those who want to modernize your kitchen without having to undergo any major renovations.

You can find microwave ovens that come in various styles to match your kitchen's decor. Some come with a swing-out right-to-left door, whereas others feature a drop-down design that opens the same way as a traditional oven. You can also purchase microwave ovens that open inside a drawer, similar to a cabinet. Microwave drawers are easily accessible and are perfect for small spaces.

Combination microwaves also come with various features that can help you prepare your meals faster and more convenient. For instance, certain models have sensors for steam cycles that automatically adjusts the time and temperature of your food to ensure you receive perfect steamed fish and vegetables. Other features include a broil feature that allows you to quickly melt cheese or cook your favorite food, as well as Crispwave(tm) technology that allows you to grill or bake food and make it crisp.

When choosing a Microwave Oven Built-in oven combination, be sure to think about how often you'll be using each function. If you'll use the oven component of your combination more often than the microwave, you may be better off using a double wall oven instead. A combo appliance has less capacity than an oven that is a standalone unit.

When you've chosen a microwave and oven combo to meet your needs, you should think about the installation procedure. Over-the range models are mounted over your stovetop or cooktop and connected to the power outlet. Built-in microwaves are inserted into cabinets or walls in your kitchen. Some models even have trim kits that allow you to seamlessly integrate your new microwave into the cabinets in your kitchen.

Energy Efficiency

25l built in microwave-in microwave oven combos are a great choice for those with smaller kitchens in their house or apartment. They can help save cabinet space that would normally be taken up by two separate appliances and they also can help reduce energy consumption. They are more energy efficient than traditional wall ovens and offer a more efficient way to cook. They can also be used to cook both food and warm dishes, reducing the requirement for additional appliances like toasters or warming plates.

When evaluating potential amended energy conservation standards, DOE conducts several analyses, including assessment of technology and market screening analysis, engineering analysis, and a national impact analysis (NIA). For this SNOPR, DOE will rely on its existing engineering analysis of microwave ovens to determine the best efficiency improvements that are technologically feasible for this particular product class.

In the engineering analysis, DOE will compare the design parameters of a microwave to a set of energy performance goals. 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 the NIA, DOE will evaluate the impact on consumers of every product category, including lifecycle cost savings and simple payback period ("PBP"). DOE will utilize the Government Regulatory Impact Model, with an adaptation for microwavable ovens to calculate the industry's net present value (NPV).

The impact on manufacturers will be evaluated as well and DOE will employ a modified version of its Industry Cash Flow model adapted for this product type to calculate the manufacturing NPV. DOE will also look at the impact of these proposals on small businesses and other subgroups of manufacturers to identify those that may be disproportionately affected.

DOE will also look into whether the test procedure for microwave ovens has to be updated in order to include active mode power consumption as well as an integrated energy use measurement. Currently, the test protocols only cover the use of standby mode power.

Design

Microwaves generate heat by causing water molecules to vibrate in food. Wall ovens depend on the circulation of hot air, while microwaves depend on waves to cause food molecules to vibrate. Combination wall ovens combine two distinct appliances into a single unit that can be used to save kitchen space and provides sleek, modern design. But you need to carefully think about your needs and budget before deciding to purchase a combination wall oven. Several of the combination wall ovens we have rated have issues with performance or design.
