To summarise, you can cook delicious meals quickly and easily, in much less time than a conventional oven would take, and still enjoy all the traditional benefits of oven cooking, such as crisping and browning.
Combination microwaves can be built-in or freestanding, and can work perfectly well as the only cooking appliance in a home. This means they’re perfect for flats, smaller homes, or in kitchens where space is limited. Bear in mind though, that they are usually bigger than a conventional microwave, and will need space above and behind, for ventilation. Always check the manufacturer’s instructions on installation before purchasing, to make sure you have enough room.
Ultimately, whether a combination microwave is right for you depends on your individual needs and cooking style.
If you’re looking for maximum flexibility, or need to save on space, it might be the perfect choice for your kitchen.
