Ovens - Microwave

If you require the microwave oven to be used mainly for the simple reheat and defrosting of foods then a straight forward microwave will suffice.

If you wish to reheat and cook food products then a microwave convection oven is well advised! It is very important to choose the correct microwave oven wattage.

You need to choose an oven with sufficient power, but just as importantly, do not over specify. The wattage determines the speed of reheat/cook times.
Look at the variable power, this will allow for more dense food products to be reheated/cooked slower allowing for the conduction of heat to work through to the middle to avoid an overcooked outside and raw centre!

Genuine commercial microwave ovens start from 1000 watts and go up to 3200 watts.

Finally, remember, whatever model you choose, the microwave oven is one of the most cost effective pieces of commercial catering equipment for your commercial kitchen and will pay for itself hundreds of times over during its expected life span.
