Benefits of a Built in Microwave and Oven Combo

Install a built-in microwave and oven combo to your kitchen to create a sleek design that will save space. These models can be costly since they replace the countertop and the wall oven.

Eva Bleyer, who oversees our microwave testing, explains that "a combo appliance makes sense only if you plan to use it frequently enough to justify the cost." Check out our top choices.

Space Saving

By stacking an oven and a microwave and an oven, you can free up valuable counter space to accommodate other kitchen appliances and cooking tools. This is a great solution for smaller spaces where a full-sized oven and microwave would be impractical.

The microwave and oven combination units can be built into your cabinetry or hidden behind an island. They can be placed in a wall to give a seamless look. Each option has pros and cons but all of them are effective methods to move your microwave off the counter.

Integrating a microwave into your cabinetry creates a seamless, custom design that requires no demolition and is relatively affordable. Many manufacturers have trim kits that fill in gaps to create more polished appearance, however these increase the cost of the project.

Another option is to build your microwave above the stove, which is tucked into the chimney stack. This is less space-consuming, more convenient to use, and in most cases, it works better than an over-the-range model, which may use up more space than it is needed.

A third alternative is to install a microwave that pulls out of your cabinetry, which is the simplest of the three options and offers the most flexibility for storage spaces. This option also occupies the least counter space and you can even fit multiple models into a single cabinet by choosing the appropriate size.

While it's safe to set things in your microwave (stacks of plastic containers for storage and small pieces of cookware should not be a problem), it isn't an ideal idea to leave heavy, heat-generating objects sitting there long-term. In time, these items can cause distortion that prevents the microwave from properly sealing and may cause it to become rusty.
