Know before you buy
Yes, this model is designed as a countertop unit but can be installed with a compatible trim kit to achieve a seamless, built-in appearance in your cabinetry.
The 1400-watt convection element allows you to bake and roast at temperatures up to 425°F, effectively acting as a secondary oven. This is ideal for browning or crisping foods that a standard microwave would typically leave soft.
PrintShield is a specialized stainless steel finish designed to resist smudges and fingerprints. It helps the microwave maintain a clean, polished look even with frequent daily use.
Yes, the dedicated 1300-watt grill function is specifically designed to provide high-heat surface cooking, allowing you to achieve a seared finish on meats that you wouldn't get with standard microwave heating.
The 13.5-inch turntable is recessed into the floor of the unit to maximize vertical space, but it can be removed for cleaning. Because it is recessed, it accommodates larger dishes more effectively than a raised turntable.
The microwave uses built-in sensors to monitor the humidity and temperature of your food during the cooking process. It automatically adjusts the time and power levels to prevent overcooking or undercooking.
