Benefits of a Built in Microwave Over Oven

A built in microwave over oven allows you to cook and reheat food quickly and easily. GE provides a range of designs, cooking techniques and control options to suit your kitchen's setup.

Built-in microwaves are positioned behind cabinets or in recessing walls to give them a a sleek and integrated look. These styles require professional installation.

Space Saver

The microwave is one of the most commonly used appliances in a kitchen, but it can also take up valuable counter space. You can free up counter space by moving the microwave to another place, such as an island in the kitchen.

Over-the-range microwaves (OTRs) are an increasingly popular choice. This option is tucked under the stove, can be particularly useful in kitchens that are small and have limited space. Furthermore there are certain OTR models double as a vent hood for your cooktop, which can be beneficial in reducing the buildup of steam.

Installing a microwave that is integrated into your cabinetry can make space. This can give you a sleek, white integrated microwave look that can be matched to the design, color, or finish of your kitchen fixtures and cabinets. It can also create an elegant look in your kitchen. This is great for homeowners that prefer an uncluttered, clean appearance.

However, installing a built-in microwave might require a professional installation or remodel of your kitchen. Based on the layout of your home it is possible to cut a space into a wall to accommodate the appliance, however, this will require the proper framing and reinforcement and should be left to experts. Also, built-in microwaves require sufficient ventilation to prevent overheating and causing damage to the appliance. According to Sam Cipiti of R. M. Tunis Kitchens and Baths in Chevy Chase, Maryland the minimum cabinet depth of a white built in microwave oven-in oven is 15 inches. However some manufacturers offer trim kits with up to 1 1/2 inch of extra space for ventilation.

A third option to reduce space is a drawer-style microwave which can be placed beneath your countertop or within an island. This configuration is simple to use, suitable for all users and requires less countertop space. It also helps prevent hot dishes or containers from falling off the edge of the microwave or getting knocked over.

The door's design is the final factor to consider when choosing a space-saving microwavable. Many brands offer a door that opens in the same way as other kitchen appliances, including dropping-down or slide-out. This allows you to integrate your microwave seamlessly into your cooking process. Some models have a smooth, sleek exterior that resists finger prints for better and cleaner appearance.

Convenience

Built-in microwaves in ovens are attractive, convenient, and easy to clean. In contrast to countertop models they're typically placed at eye level for easier accessibility and are often equipped with turntables that eliminate the necessity of constantly shifting food from plate to plate. Additionally, built-in microwaves usually have options that increase functionality, like EasyConvection oven conversion technology and broil elements that allow you to crisp or brown foods.

A built-in microwave on top of the oven can save you counter space and increase the value of your home by giving it a sleek and high-end appearance that other appliances might not be able to match. These microwaves can be installed above the stove, or in a separate cabinet. They seamlessly blend into the kitchen, giving the appearance of a custom-designed appearance that shows how much you've put in your kitchen and home.

Built-in microwaves over ovens are available in a vast variety of sizes as well as power levels and features to fit any kitchen layout. Install them underneath the counter in a drawer style to create an elegant look that can be easily integrated into existing cabinetry. They do not require additional space. These microwaves, with their premium finishes and high-end functions, will enhance the aesthetics of your kitchen as well as your dining and cooking experiences.

While the convenience of a built-in microwave over oven is obvious however, you should be aware that they aren't as efficient as their freestanding counterparts. Depending on where you install your microwave, it will require more space than other types of microwaves. They are also not as portable and you won't be able easily switch out the model to a new one if you decide that you want something different.

If you place your microwave above the range, you'll need an extra kitchen space to accommodate the ventilation system that is required by this arrangement. You'll need either a ducting system that directs smoke outside or a recirculating ventilation system that draws air through the microwave and into the home. For smaller kitchens, consider a separate built-in microwave that can be installed inside the wall, cabinet or island.

Convenient Controls

Microwaves offer a wide variety of controls based on the model. Common features include turntables, preset functions including defrosting and reheating, and plus-30-second buttons. Some models offer safety features for children that stop accidental operation of the appliance.

Many microwaves also come with preset recipes and cooking times that help you prepare meals quicker and more efficient. This feature is useful for new cooks who aren't sure how long to heat certain foods or for those who aren't comfortable with the specific cooking techniques that are used in different cuisines.

KitchenAid offers a variety of built-in microwaves as well as over-the-range microwaves designed to match your other appliances in design and finish to create seamless appearance. You can find a selection of stainless 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.

In contrast to countertop models built-in microwaves are inserted into a fixed space in your kitchen walls or cabinets to give your kitchen a sleek, customized appearance. They typically use the same components inside as countertop models, with some exceptions. These models are available in various sizes, including those made to fit into a smaller space and their exteriors could feature a door that opens either in a right-to-left swing-out or drop-down fashion.

Some microwaves that are over-the-range like those from Whirlpool(r), even double as vent hoods to your stove in the kitchen. They also have a built-in exhaust system to vent fumes outside and recycle air. Some models come with a charcoal filter to remove odors and moisture from your kitchen.

Countertop models are placed on the kitchen counter. They don't require venting or a special installation. This makes them a good choice for those who lease their homes or wish to stay clear of costly modifications to their kitchens. Some options include trim kits to close the gap between your microwave and other countertop appliances, such as coffee pots bread makers, toaster ovens or bread ovens.

Energy Efficiency

Microwaves are much more efficient at heating water and food when compared to other cooking methods. They also use less power than stovetops that are conventional because microwaves built in focus their energy on the liquid within, rather than heating the air around it. They can also heat dishes much faster than conventional ovens. They can be put in in the lower or upper cabinets and are available in modern or retro styles to match any kitchen.

In this supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking ("SNOPR") the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy proposes new or revised energy conservation standards for micro-wave ovens which will help consumers save money on their operating costs. The Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA) requires DOE to evaluate on a regular basis whether more stringent standards are technically feasible and economically justified, and if they will result in significant energy saving.

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

The energy usage analysis estimates annual average microwave oven operating hours in representative sampled homes. It is the basis for the energy savings analyses and the other consumer analyses in this SNOPR. The analysis is based on RECS field data collected from various regions. It also takes into consideration different microwave oven usage patterns in different households as and regional variations in electricity prices.

To determine the impact of new or modified standards on the cost of operating a household, DOE conducted LCC and PBP analyses to estimate the lifetime cost of purchasing and using microwave ovens at different efficiency levels. The LCC and PBP calculations are based on a computer model that uses the Monte Carlo simulation to incorporate uncertainty and variability into the analyses.

This SNOPR includes an evaluation of the impact of amended or new standards at the national scale based on the NIA spreadsheet. The NIA model calculates the industry net present value (INPV) in terms of energy saving from potential amended or a new standard in the form of site energy savings and FFC savings.
