Buying a Small Integrated Microwave
Integrated microwaves can be installed in cabinets to create sleek and modern look. This type of microwave works well in smaller kitchens and if you are limited on counter space.
This method involves cutting through the wall to mount the appliance, so it's best to enlist the assistance of a professional fitting expert. Pro: Gives you a stylish appearance in your kitchen when coupled with other appliances, such as a wall-mounted oven.
Size
Microwaves are available in different sizes to match your kitchen and cooking preferences. There are three kinds of microwaves including countertop models that can put on the counter or table and over-the-range models (microwave hood combination) and built-in microwaves that can be installed in kitchen cabinets.
If you are seeking a small, integrated microwavable, select the Whirlpool slim trim kit. This allows your appliance to take less space and is perfect for kitchens with smaller sizes. There's also oven and microwave built in of interior capacities that vary from 0.8 cubic feet up to 2.1 cubic feet so that you can choose the one that meets your needs.
In the case of integrated microwaves the size you select will depend on whether you'd like a solo or combi model and if you're using it to perform oven functions too. They'll usually need to be installed when your kitchen is designed, to ensure that it is a good fit in the cabinet where it'll sit. They will also be higher up in the cabinet, making them harder to clean.
Space
Integrated microwaves are now the "it-appliance" for modern kitchens. They have many advantages over freestanding models. They are designed to be a seamless fit into upper cabinets, and make countertops clutter-free. This allows for more space on the countertops for other appliances like blenders and mixers. Their compact size makes them also great for small spaces and models with a low profile cutouts make them more streamlined. The interior space can vary, but most models offer around 0.8 cubic feet. Choose a model that has smaller width to fit into smaller spaces, and also consider a model with a lower height to make space below the range.
Because they are higher in the cabinet, integrated microwaves can be more difficult to clean than freestanding counterparts. However this is not a problem with careful planning and the right cleaning methods.
Looks
Small-sized microwaves can provide the same functions as countertop models, but they don't take up any counter space. They also can give your kitchen a neat appearance. It can be hidden in a cabinet, garage or behind the door to blend with the surrounding cabinets. This solution removes the safety danger of having an appliance on a worktop visible to small children. It can be placed higher, ensuring it's safe for children to use it.
It's fairly simple to incorporate your microwave into your kitchen by constructing it into a cabinet. You can buy a trim kit to create a custom look.
If you're working on a major construction or renovation project, it could be possible to build a microwave in the wall. This will give your home a more streamlined look. This isn't an easy solution as you'll have to cut into the structure of your house to install it. This is a task best left to a professional who will make sure your existing walls are able to support the weight of the unit and add any necessary reinforcement.
Installing a drawer-style micro below the counter is another option. It's accessible by swiping a finger on a pull handle. This is a great option for kitchens that have limited counter space. It's also the most cost-effective option because you'll only have to pay for the drawer and installation. This configuration also offers the benefit of a landing space that is immediately accessible, making it much easier to place food in the oven and remove it from the oven without needing to reach over or under the countertop.
