Know before you buy
While it is excellent for smaller batches, roasting, and crisping, it is not a direct replacement for a full-sized oven. The 1.4 cubic foot capacity is ideal for side dishes, casseroles, or smaller roasts, but it won't accommodate large items like a full turkey.
Crispwave technology uses a specialized crisper pan to brown, crisp, and even fry foods that typically get soggy in a standard microwave. It allows you to achieve textures similar to oven-baking or air-frying for items like pizza, bacon, or breaded snacks.
This feature automatically adjusts your standard oven recipes for convection cooking. You simply enter the temperature and time from your original recipe, and the microwave calculates the necessary adjustments to ensure your food cooks evenly without you having to guess.
Yes, this unit is ADA compliant, meaning it is designed with accessibility in mind. The controls and interface are positioned and configured to be reachable and operable for individuals with disabilities.
Yes, this is a built-in model, not a countertop unit. It requires a specific cutout width of 25-1/2 inches to ensure a proper, flush fit within your cabinetry.
Sensor cooking takes the guesswork out of reheating and cooking by monitoring the humidity levels inside the microwave. It automatically adjusts the power level and cooking time to prevent overcooking or drying out your food.
