You might think that when it comes to purchasing a new kitchen package that the toughest choice for most customers would be which refrigerator or range to choose, as these are centerpiece appliances in the kitchen. It’s surprising that the piece that hangs up our customers the most is actually the microwave. “Where will it fit?” is a question we hear often.
When underneath the counters is the only place you can put a microwave, we highly recommend considering a microwave drawer. Now if you’re looking for a convection microwave, stop here! Microwave drawers do not offer a convection setting.
Microwave drawers do, however, offer a lot more, and if you’re not in need of convection, we think you ought to keep these things in mind before you purchase a microwave. Microwave drawers are stylish and fit in very nicely with any design. They make it easier to tend to your food because you don’t have to pull the food out to stir, flip or turn it. Just open the drawer, do what you have to do, and close the drawer again.
Here are our favorite microwave drawers:
