A Built in Microwave Oven Combo Offers Convenience and Versatility

A microwave oven that is built-in incorporates your wall oven and your microwave into one unit. They can free space on your counters and provide your kitchen with a sleek aesthetic.

These models feature powerful broilers that cook evenly and microwaves that heat food quickly. They also come with a broad variety of cooking options to cook various meals.

Size

A built-in microwave and wall oven combo is a great solution for kitchens with a variety of. It is a combination of the convenience of a microwavable with the flexibility of wall ovens. Explore our range of wall ovens that combine with microwaves to find the ideal one for your home. Make sure to review the cutout specifications and installation instructions for the appliance you choose to ensure that it is suitable in your space. Our microwave and oven combos include both microwave and oven models with a variety of styles, colors and finishes that will complement any decor. Look for features like smart and convenient controls and a power cook function and a built-in self-cleaning system to cut down on time.

Convenience

A built-in microwave oven combo can save space on your kitchen counters and add a sleek design to your space. It can be used to cook leftovers, frozen food items, and even pre-packaged food items. It can eliminate the need for separate countertop appliances or bulky wall ovens. If you want to upgrade your home without having to do major renovations, a microwave and a convection oven is a great choice.

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 get a microwave-oven combo that opens through a drawer like a cabinet. integrated microwave ovens are simple to reach and are ideal for smaller spaces where you want to minimize the use of counter space.

Combination microwaves can also provide a range of features to aid in meal preparation and more practical. For instance, certain models come with sensors that allow you to steam your food and automatically adjusts the time and temperature of your food to ensure you receive perfectly steamed veggies and fish. Other features include the broil feature, which allows you to quickly melt cheese and brown your favorite dish. Crispwave(tm), meanwhile, can grill, bake and crisp food.

When choosing a microwave combination, be sure to think about how often you'll be using each function. If you'll use the oven more frequently than the micro, you might prefer a double wall-oven. A combo appliance has a smaller capacity than an individual oven.

After you've selected the right microwave and oven combination to meet your needs, you should think about the installation procedure. Over-the-range models are positioned over the stovetop or cooktop and connect to a power outlet. Built-in microwaves are installed into the walls or cabinets of your kitchen. Certain models include trim kits to make your microwave match the cabinets you already have.

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 reside in a house or an apartment. They can help to save on cabinet space that would otherwise be taken up by two separate appliances, and they can also help to reduce energy usage. They typically offer an efficient cooking method than traditional wall ovens because they use less energy. They can also be used to cook food and warm dishes. This reduces the necessity for other appliances such as toasters or warming plates.

DOE performs several analyses when evaluating possible amended energy conservation standards. These include market and technology assessments, screening analyses, engineering analyses, and national impact analysis (NIA). For this SNOPR, DOE will rely on its existing engineering analysis of microwave ovens to determine the highest efficiency improvements that are technically feasible for this product category.

In the engineering analysis, DOE will compare the design parameters of a microwave with 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 impacts on consumers, such as the cost savings throughout the lifecycle and simple payback period (PBP). DOE will employ its Government Regulatory Impact Model with an adaptation for microwave ovens to calculate the industry's net present value ("NPV").

The impact on manufacturers will be evaluated also and DOE will use an updated version of its Industry Cash Flow model that has been modified for this product type to calculate the manufacturing NPV. DOE will also look at the effects of these proposals on small-scale businesses as well as other manufacturing subgroups to determine those who could be most affected.

DOE will also look into whether the test procedure for microwave ovens needs to be updated in order to include active mode power consumption and a possible integrated energy use measurement. The current test procedures only include standby mode power consumption.

Design


Microwaves generate heat by causing water molecules to vibrate in food. Wall ovens rely upon the circulation of hot air while microwaves rely on waves to cause food molecules to vibrate. Combination wall units blend both appliances into one unit, reducing space in the kitchen and giving a modern, sleek look. You must carefully think about your budget and needs before investing in a combination wall oven. Several of the combination wall ovens we have rated have issues with performance or design.
