New microwaves are released all the time, so it can be difficult to keep up with the newest developments. Many microwaves have similar features and designs, making it even harder to pick one. In this article we’ll go through some of the most unique and interesting microwaves available at the moment.
Whirlpool Max 38 Crisp Microwave
The Whirlpool range of microwaves is one of our favourites. Even though some people may not like the curved design, there’s no denying that this increases the room available for a turntable while reducing the overall size of the microwave. If you’re looking for a microwave that saves space, or just want an oven that’s a bit different, then the Max 38 is one of our recommended products. The Whirlpool 35 is a similar option with the same curved back design.
Unique Features: Space saving design, crisping function.
Daewoo QT1 Compact Microwave
The Daewoo QT1 takes space saving, compact design to a new level. It’s perfect for use in a small kitchen, and is designed to look modern and attractive. We love the QT1 because it’s relatively inexpensive, but you wouldn’t think so by looking at it! It’s worth pointing out that the QT1 only has a power rating of 600W, meaning it’ll cook a lot slower than other microwaves on this list. If you’re used to an 800W microwave then you may find this slow cooking speed frustrating.
Unique Features: Compact yet attractive
Sharp R959SLMA 40L Combination Microwave
If you have a large family then the huge Sharp R959SLMA 40L microwave could be the perfect option. It’s one of the most popular microwaves around at the moment, and with 900W power, quartz grill and range of features it’s easy to see why. The 40L capacity means that the microwvae can handle even the largest casserole dishes and plates, while the 900W of power means that it cooks food far more quickly than other models.
Unique Features: Huge 40 litre cavity.
Russell Hobbs Heritage Red Microwave Oven
Who said a microwave can’t be beautiful? The Heritage RHM2064R is another microwave that makes our list due to its attractive design. While the RHM2064R is slightly let down by its lack of features, the low price tag combined with a fantastic design mean that this is one of our favourite microwaves in this price range. There are surprisingly few red microwaves on the market – we think there should be more because they look great in the kitchen!
Unique Features: Stunning design and attractive red colour scheme.
Panasonic NN-CF778SBPQ Combination Microwave Oven
The NN-CF778SBPQ is a beast of a microwave. It’s powerful, looks fantastic and is one of the most versatile models on the market. It’s not cheap, with a price tag exceeding even more combination models, but if you want to replace your oven with a microwave then this is an excellent choice.
Unique Features: Flat bed microwave so you aren’t limited by the size of the turntable
