Benefits of a Built in Microwave Over Oven

A microwave oven that has built-in Microwaves Built in allows you to cook and heat your food quickly and conveniently. GE provides a variety of styles, cooking technologies and control options to fit your kitchen.

Built-in microwaves are positioned behind cabinets or in wall recess to give them sleek and integrated appearance. These models require professional installation.

Space Saver

The microwave is one of the most commonly used appliances in a kitchen, but it can also consume valuable counter space. There are plenty of smart ways to make the most of your countertop space by moving your microwave to a different place, such as a kitchen island or recessing it into the wall.

Over-the-range microwaves (OTRs) are a popular choice. Tucked away neatly above your stove, this option is especially beneficial in kitchens with smaller spaces where space is limited. Furthermore there are certain OTR models can double as a vent hood for your cooktop, which can be useful in reducing the amount of steam that builds up.

Installing a microwave that is integrated into your cabinetry will save you space. This option provides a sleek, integrated appearance that can be matched to the kitchen cabinets and fixtures in color, finish, or style. It can also give an overall look that is more minimalist in your kitchen. This is great for homeowners that prefer a clean, uncluttered appearance.

Installing a built-in microwave could require a professional installation or a kitchen remodel. Depending on the layout of your home it is possible to cut a space into a wall to accommodate the appliance, however, this will require adequate framing and support which should be left to professionals. Built-in microwaves also need adequate ventilation to avoid overheating and damaging the appliance. According to Sam Cipiti, vice president of R. M. Tunis Kitchens and Baths in Chevy Chase, Maryland, the minimum cabinet depth for a microwave built-in is approximately 15 inches. However, some manufacturers offer trim kits that offer up to 1 1/2 inches of extra space to allow for ventilation.

Another option that can be used to save space is a drawer-style microwave which can be installed below your countertop or inside an island. This configuration is easy-to-access, suitable for all and requires less counter space. It also helps prevent hot dishes or containers from falling off the edge of the microwave and grill built in or being knocked over.

The door's design is an important factor to consider when selecting a microwave that is space-saving. Many brands offer an open, swing-out or slide-out door that opens in the same motion as other kitchen appliances, allowing you to seamlessly integrate your microwave into your cooking workflow. Some models also come with a sleek and smooth exterior that wards off fingerprints for a cleaner, more attractive appearance.

Convenience

Built-in microwaves over ovens look attractive, practical, and easy to clean. Contrary to countertop models, they're typically placed at eye level for easier accessibility and come with turntables that eliminate the need to constantly shift food from plate to plate. Additionally, built-in microwaves usually have options that enhance functionality like EasyConvection oven conversion technology and broiling elements that allow you to cook or brown foods.

A built-in microwave and oven built in combo over the oven will save counter space and also increase the value of your home by giving it a sleek, luxurious appearance that other appliances may not be able to match. It can be placed above your stove or in a separate cabinet these microwaves seamlessly blend into your kitchen for an elegant appearance that shows that you've put money into your kitchen and your home.

Built-in microwaves that are over ovens are available in a variety of sizes, power levels, and features that can be adapted to fit any kitchen. You can even install them under your counter in a drawer-style to give a more cohesive look that fits snugly into existing cabinets and requires no additional space. Made with premium finishes and high-end features These microwaves are guaranteed to complement the style of your kitchen and elevate your cooking and entertaining experience.

While microwaves built into ovens are handy but they aren't as versatile as the microwaves that stand alone. Depending on the location you put yours, it may require more space than other types of microwaves. They are also not as portable, and you cannot easily change the model if you want something else.

If you place your microwave above your range, you'll require a larger kitchen to accommodate the ventilation system required by this arrangement. You'll need either a ducting system that can direct smoke to the outside, or a ventilation system that recirculates air through the microwave into the home. For a smaller kitchen think about a separate built-in microwave which can be fitted into the wall, cabinet or island.

Convenient Controls

Microwave ovens have various controls that are convenient, depending on the model you pick. Some features are turntables, presets such as defrosting or reheating, as well as buttons for a maximum of 30 minutes. Certain models come with child safety features to prevent accidental operation of the appliance.

Many microwaves come with pre-made recipes and cooking times that make the process of preparing meals quicker and more efficient. This feature is beneficial for cooks who are new to cooking and uncertain of the proper time to cook specific food items or who are unfamiliar with the specific cooking techniques employed in various cuisines.

KitchenAid brand offers a broad selection of built-in and over the-range microwaves that are designed to complement the style and design of your other appliances for an integrated look to your kitchen. There's a range of stainless steel built in microwave steel models and black finishes to complement any kitchen design. These premium microwaves are boldly designed to bring professional-inspired styles into your home, and they're made with high-quality materials for a longer lifespan.

Unlike models that are built into countertops built-in microwaves are fitted into a fixed space in your kitchen's cabinets or walls for a sleek and custom appearance. The internal components are generally identical to those of regular countertop models with some exceptions. They are available in various sizes, including some that are designed to fit in small spaces. Their exteriors may have doors that open with a swing-out that opens from left to right or drop-down style.

Some over-the-range microwaves like those made by Whirlpool(r) can also double as vent hoods for your kitchen stove and use an exhaust system that is built-in to vent fumes outside and recirculate air. Others have a built-in charcoal filter to eliminate moisture and odors from your kitchen.

Countertop models are placed on your kitchen counter and do not require venting hookups, or special installations, making them a great option for rental properties or anyone who wants to avoid costly changes to their kitchens. Some models come with trim kits that can be used to close the gap between the microwave and other countertop appliances like toaster ovens, coffee pots or bread makers.

Energy Efficiency

Microwaves are more efficient in heating water and food as when compared to other cooking methods. They also consume less power than conventional stovetops because the microwaves focus their energy on the liquid within instead of heating the air surrounding it. This means that they can heat food much faster than a conventional oven. They can be put in your lower or upper cabinets, and come with modern or retro styling to match any kitchen style.

In this notice of proposed rulemaking ("SNOPR") The Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (DOE) proposes new or modified energy conservation standards for microwave ovens that help consumers save money on their operating costs. The Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA) requires DOE to regularly assess whether more stringent standards are technically feasible and economically justified, and if they will yield significant energy savings.

This SNOPR provides the analysis and results that DOE performed to evaluate the impact on consumers of new or amended energy conservation standards for microwave ovens. The analysis includes a market and technology assessment and screening analysis, an engineering analysis and national impacts analysis.

The energy usage analysis estimates annual average microwave oven operating hours in homes that have been sampled for representativeness. This analysis is used to calculate energy savings and other consumer analysis within this SNOPR. The analysis is built on RECS field data from multiple regions and considers the different usage patterns of microwave ovens in different households, as well as the variation in the regional electricity prices.

To evaluate the impact of changes or new standards on household operating costs, DOE conducted LCC and PBP analyses to determine the cost over time of purchasing and using a microwave oven at different efficiency levels. The LCC and PBP calculations are based on the computer model that utilizes the Monte Carlo simulation to incorporate uncertainty and variation into the analysis.

In addition to the analyses of energy use and LCC/PBP in this SNOPR contains an evaluation of the impact on the nation of amended or new standards based on the NIA spreadsheet model. The NIA model estimates the industry's net present value ("INPV") in terms of energy savings from potential amended or new standards in the form of site energy savings and FFC energy savings.
