A Built in Microwave Oven Combo Offers Convenience and Versatility
A built in microwave oven combo gives you the best of both worlds by making your microwave and wall oven into one appliance. They can free up space on your counters and give your kitchen a stylish look.
These models feature powerful broilers that cook evenly, and their microwaves cook food quickly. They also have a wide range of options for cooking various foods.
Size
Combining the convenience of a microwave oven and the flexibility of a wall oven and a built-in microwave and wall oven combination is a practical solution for kitchens with a variety of styles. Browse our selection of combination wall ovens and microwaves to find the ideal solution for your home. Make sure to review the cutout specifications for the appliance you choose and follow the installation guide to be sure it fits in your space. Our microwave & wall oven combos include both microwave and wall oven models that are available in a variety of styles, colors and finishes to match any style. Also, look for features such as intelligent and easy-to-use digital controls, a power-cook feature and built-in self-cleaning options to help reduce time.
Convenience
A microwave oven with built-in features will free up space on your counters and give your kitchen a sleeker appearance. Because it functions as a microwave and traditional oven it is able to heat leftovers, frozen food items and pre-packaged meals in one appliance. It can eliminate the necessity of separate countertop appliances or bulky wall ovens. A combination microwave oven can also be a good option when you are looking to improve your kitchen without undergoing any major renovations.
There are microwave oven combos in a variety of styles to match the decor of your kitchen. Some have a right-to-left swing-out door, whereas others feature a drop-down style that opens the same way as an oven that is traditional. You can also find microwave ovens with an open-type drawer that opens like an open cabinet. The microwave drawers can be easily reached and are ideal for small spaces.
Combination microwaves also come with a range of features to assist in making meal preparation easier and more convenient. Some models feature a sensor steam mode that alters the temperature and time of your food in order to ensure perfectly steamed vegetables and fish. Other features include the broil element, which allows you to quickly melt cheese and cook your favorite dish. Crispwave(tm) is meanwhile can grill, bake, and crisp food items.
Think about how often you'll utilize each feature before deciding on a microwave-oven combination. If you'll use the oven part of your combo more than the microwave, you may prefer a double wall oven instead. It's also important to remember that a combination appliance generally has less capacity than a traditional standalone oven.
After you've chosen the right microwave and oven combo for your needs, it's time to consider the installation. Over-the-range models are positioned over the stovetop or cooktop, and plug into the power outlet. integrated microwave oven combo -in microwaves can be incorporated into cabinets or walls in your kitchen. Some models come with trim kits that allow you to effortlessly integrate your new microwave into your existing kitchen cabinets.
Energy Efficiency
A built in microwave oven combination can be an excellent space-saving option for those who have smaller kitchens, regardless of whether they are in a house or apartment. They can reduce the amount of cabinet space that would otherwise be occupied by two separate appliances, and they can also help reduce energy consumption. They are more energy efficient than traditional wall-mounted ovens and offer a more efficient way to cook. They can also be used to cook food and warm meals. This eliminates the requirement for other appliances, such as toasters or warming plates.
When evaluating possible amendments to energy conservation standards, DOE conducts several analyses which include assessment of technology and market, screening analysis, engineering analysis and national impacts analysis (NIA). In this SNOPR DOE will utilize its existing engineering analysis on microwave ovens to determine what degree of efficiency improvements are technologically possible for this product category.
In the engineering analysis, DOE will compare the design parameters of a microwave against an energy performance set of 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 NIA, DOE will assess the impact on consumers, including cost savings over the lifecycle, as well as the simple payback period (PBP). DOE will employ its Government Regulatory Impact Model with an adaptation for microwave ovens to calculate industry net present value ("NPV").
DOE will also evaluate the effects on manufacturers and will employ an altered industry cash flow model adapted to this product type in order to estimate manufacturing NPV. DOE will also look at the impacts of these plans on small-scale businesses as well as other manufacturing subgroups to identify those who could be most affected.
DOE will also consider whether the test procedure for microwave ovens has to be updated in order to include active mode power consumption and an energy use measure. Currently, test procedures only include standby mode power consumption.
Design
Microwaves create heat through the process of causing water molecules to vibrate in food. Wall ovens depend on the circulation of hot air, while microwaves rely on waves to cause food molecules to vibrate. Combination wall ovens combine two different appliances into one unit that can be used to save kitchen space and gives an elegant, modern look. You must carefully take into consideration your budget and goals before deciding on a combination wall oven. Some of the combination ovens we evaluated have design or performance issues.
