A Built in Microwave Oven Combo Offers Convenience and Versatility
A built in microwave oven combo provides the best of both worlds by making your microwave and wall oven into one device. They can help free space on your countertops and provide your kitchen with a sleek design.
These models feature powerful broilers that cook evenly and their microwaves heat food quickly. They also offer a wide selection of cooking options different foods.

Combining the convenience of a microwave oven with the versatility of a wall oven and a built-in microwave and wall oven combo is a great solution for many kitchens. Explore our entire range of microwaves that combine with wall ovens to find the right fit for your home. Be sure to read the cutout specifications and installation guide for the model you select to ensure that it is suitable in your space. Our microwave & oven combinations include both oven and microwave models with a variety of designs, colors and styles that will complement any decor. Also, look for features like smart and convenient electronic controls, a power-cook function and built in self-cleaning options to help reduce time.
Convenience
A microwave oven with built-in features can save space on your counters and give your kitchen a more sleek look. It can be used to heat leftovers, frozen food items, and even pre-packaged food items. It eliminates the necessity of separate appliances for the countertop or large wall ovens. If you want to upgrade your home without the need for major remodeling, a microwave and a convection oven is a great option.
Microwave ovens are available in a variety of different styles to fit the decor of your kitchen. Certain microwave oven combos come with doors that swing open from right to left and others have drop-down designs that open in the same way as traditional ovens. There is also a microwave oven combo with a drawer style that opens like a cabinet. The microwave drawers can be easily reached and are ideal for small space.
Combination microwaves also come with many features that help you prepare your meals faster and more efficient. For example, some models come with sensors that allow you to steam your food and automatically adjusts the time and temperature of your food items to ensure you receive perfect steamed fish and vegetables. Other features include the broil feature, which allows you to quickly melt cheese and cook your favorite food. Crispwave(tm) in turn can grill, bake, and crisp food items.
Consider how often you'll use each feature when choosing a microwave-oven combination. If you'll use the oven more frequently than the micro, you might prefer a double wall-oven. It's also important to remember that a combo oven typically has less capacity than a traditional standalone oven.
Once you've decided on a microwave and oven combo to meet your needs, consider the installation procedure. Over-the-range models mount over your cooktop or stove and connect to an electrical outlet, while built-in microwaves can be plugged directly into the walls or cabinets of your kitchen. Some models include trim kits to match your new microwave to your existing cabinets.
Energy Efficiency
Built-in microwave oven combos are a great option for those who have smaller kitchens in their house or apartment. They can save the space that would be taken up by separate appliances, and can also reduce energy consumption. They generally provide the most efficient cooking method than traditional wall ovens, as they tend to use less energy. In addition, they can be used to cook both food and warm dishes, reducing the requirement for additional appliances, such as toasters or warming plates.
DOE conducts a variety of analyses when evaluating possible amended energy conservation standards. These include technology and market assessments, screening analyses, engineering analyses and national impact analysis (NIA). In this SNOPR, DOE will rely on its existing engineering analysis of microwave ovens to determine the highest level of improvements in efficiency that are technically feasible for this product class.
DOE will compare the design of a microwave with the energy performance goals set in the engineering analysis. The engineering analysis will then determine the maximum improvement in energy efficiency that is technologically feasible based on the most advanced microprocessor-controlled model available on the market or in working prototypes, or the maximum reduction in energy consumption that is technically achievable with the current technologies available for this product class.
As microwaves built in of NIA, DOE will assess the effects on consumers, such as the lifecycle cost savings, and simple payback time (PBP). cheapest built in microwave will utilize the Government Regulatory Impact Model, with an adaptation for microwavable ovens, to calculate the industry's net present value (NPV).
DOE will also assess the impacts on manufacturers, and will use an altered industry cash flow model that is specifically tailored to this type of product in order to estimate manufacturing NPV. DOE will also examine the impacts of these plans on small-scale businesses as well as other manufacturing subgroups to determine those who could be most affected.
Additionally, DOE will consider whether the tests for microwave ovens must be revised to include active mode energy use and a possible integrated active mode energy use measurement. At present, the test procedures only include standby mode power consumption.
Design
Wall ovens depend on the circulation of hot air evenly while microwaves rely on waves to cause water molecules in food to vibrate and produce heat. Combination wall ovens combine these two distinct appliances into one unit that helps save kitchen space and gives a sleek, modern aesthetic. However, you must carefully consider your goals and budget before deciding to purchase a combination wall oven. Many of the combination wall ovens we have rated have issues with performance or design.
