ᐅ Oven with built-in microwave

Hello forum,

I understand that the built-in microwave oven is functional and that using the oven and microwave combination can save time, but I’m curious whether this integrated version really performs as well as a separate microwave in everyday use (setting aside space advantages, as we have enough room). I’m not talking about large cooking tasks, but rather things like quickly warming a cup of milk or reheating lunch in the evening. Do you need to remove the trays first, or does it work like a standalone microwave (open, place item inside, start, done)? Is it easy to find the small cup of milk again afterward in the relatively large oven? And so on.

I’d be interested to hear about your daily experiences and whether you would choose a combination unit again.

Best regards

Hello, everyone)

How much more expensive is this microwave compared to a conventional one?

The price is comparable to that of an oven you would otherwise buy separately.
It makes sense if you already have a main oven and want to add a compact oven with an integrated microwave. Then a warming drawer fits nicely underneath.

I find the combination of oven and microwave absolutely practical, especially in smaller kitchens. I am planning a medium-sized kitchen, yet I have decided on a compact oven with a microwave function. I want to avoid as many unnecessary appliances as possible.
