Certain models come with Keep Warm features that keeps food warm and ready to be eaten for up to sixty minutes. This makes them perfect for entertaining or for everyday use.

When it comes to choosing a countertop microwave, size is a crucial factor. The maximum amount of counter space available for a countertop microwavable is 16″. Kitchen countertops that are standard are 25 1/2″ deep. This can leave less room for your kitchen’s work surfaces and limit your ability to use that area of your home.

This can help you save counter space, and also put the appliance away when it’s not in use without sacrificing other kitchen storage space.

This type of microwave doesn’t require as much clearance to function as an over-the counter or built-in appliance. The sliding design also eliminates the necessity for turntables, which saves even more counter space. This lets you use large rectangular dishes or oblong jars that would not fit on the turntable.

They help to make it easier to set and retrieve dishes, reducing the risk of spills and overheating. Furthermore, these units offer greater visibility into the cooking space, which helps reduce frustration when cooking meals.

The benefit of this choice depends on the specific circumstances. A drawer microwave is a great option for modern kitchens if you require more counter space, enjoy the ergonomic access and desire advanced cooking features like sensor or convection. However, if you’re satisfied with your countertop or prefer a minimalist style, this choice might not be the best choice for you.

Over the Range

Microwavables over the range are installed on cooktops or stoves to reduce counter space and give sleek, modern appearance. These kitchen appliances can double function as range vents and vents for the hood that help eliminate steam, smoke, and cooking smells from the kitchen.

It is risky to reach over an oven or cooktop that is hot to reach for a countertop microwave, especially if not careful.

Over-the-range models also save counter space and can be used to store cookbooks, or other small kitchen appliances. However, they tend to be more expensive than countertop models and require professional installation.

The choice between an over-the- range or countertop microwave is contingent on the layout of your kitchen, the amount of counter space you have, and your personal preferences. Both microwaves can make your kitchen more efficient, but over the range models can help you save counter space and provide the ability to vent to provide a more comfortable cooking experience.
