What are the sizes of microwave ovens

Microwave ovens have long and firmly entered into household use. They are indispensable where you need to quickly warm up lunch or defrost food, cook pastries or porridge in five minutes. And devices with a grill or oven are also used for full-fledged cooking, replacing the stove.

When buying a microwave oven, we take into account what we are going to use it for, who exactly will use it, as well as the composition of the family and the size of the kitchen. Based on this, we select the type and volume of the microwave, power, set of functions and, of course, the dimensions of the device.

The Hausdorff online store of elite household appliances offers customers microwave ovens for kitchens of any style in all price categories.

Depending on the type of placement, you can choose a desktop or built-in model.

• Stand-alone ones take up a lot of space on the countertop. You can install them on a cabinet only if the height of users allows it. A large desktop model can take up the entire tabletop, and it is impractical to clean it after each use.

• Embedded models can have a much larger scope and feature set. They are installed in a cabinet, cabinet or niche, in harmony with the situation, and do not interfere with cooking.

Microwave standard dimensions

A microwave oven of 15-30 liters is considered standard. It is suitable for one or two people, as well as for large families.

Most freestanding microwave ovens are 45-50 cm wide, about 30 cm high and 35-45 cm deep.

Such, for example, is the Kaiser M 2500 ElfEm microwave oven in ivory retro style with bronze fittings. Its volume is 25 liters, height is 28 cm, width is 48 cm, and depth is 36 cm.

Built-in microwave ovens with the same capacity are about 60 cm wide (standard size for built-in appliances), about 40 cm high and 30 to 40 cm deep.

The popular built-in model Neff HLAWD23N0 has a volume of 20 liters, its height is 38 cm, its width is 60 cm, and its depth is 31 cm.

Non-standard sizes of microwave ovens

In addition to standard models, it is customary to distinguish:

• Small microwave ovens up to 20 liters, up to 45 cm wide and 35-40 cm deep. Among them, there are both free-standing and built-in ones. So, a small free-standing model Gorenje MO 4250 CLI with a volume of 20 liters reaches a height of 28.5 cm, a width of 45 cm, a depth of 36 cm.

• Narrow microwave ovens up to 50 cm wide. Mostly these are free-standing models, but there are also built-in ones. For example, Gorenje Plus GOM811X with a width of 45 cm has an increased height of 60 cm and a depth of 54 cm.

• Large microwave ovens from 30 to 55 liters. There are few free-standing microwaves of this volume. For example, the 34-liter Smeg MOE34CXI has rather small dimensions: 31 cm high, 52 cm wide and 37 cm deep.

Built-in ovens of this volume are multifunctional built-in devices, the large capacity of which is achieved not due to an increase in dimensions, but due to an improved design. For example, the dimensions of the Asko OM8487S for 53 liters do not differ from the standard ones. Its height is 45 cm, width is 60 cm, and depth is 55 cm.

If you decide to purchase a built-in model, you can read about its dimensions and installation features in our article “Dimensions of built-in microwave ovens”.

Regardless of the type of device, you should pay attention to the following installation features:

• Flat top, cabinet or niche shelf, hanging shelf;
• The distance between the microwave oven and the wall is at least 10 cm;
• Proximity to a power outlet and connection without an extension cord;
• Space in front for free opening of the door.

When ordering any model in the Hausdorf online store, managers will answer all questions and help arrange delivery and connection.

How a microwave oven works. Help

October 8 marks the 65th anniversary of the patenting of microwave oven technology.

A microwave oven (microwave oven, microwave oven) is one of the most popular household electrical appliances and is designed for quick cooking, heating food and for defrosting food. Its creator, Percy Spencer, a resident of Massachusetts, patented his invention on October 8, 1945.

According to legend, the idea of ​​​​creating a microwave oven came to his mind after he, standing by a magnetron (electronic lamp that generates microwave electromagnetic radiation), discovered that the candy bar in his pocket had melted. According to another version, he noticed that the sandwich placed on the switched on magnetron was heated up.

The first microwave ovens, intended for army canteens and large restaurants, were cabinets 175 cm high and weighing 340 kg. More compact home ovens began to be produced in 1955.

The first mass-produced household microwave oven was released by the Japanese company Sharp in 1962. Initially, the demand for a new product was low. In the USSR, microwave ovens were produced by the ZIL plant.

The principle of operation of a microwave oven is based on the processing of the product placed inside the device, microwaves (microwave radiation). These waves heat the food.

Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic energy, just like light waves or radio waves. These are very short electromagnetic waves that travel at the speed of light (299.79 km/s).

Food products contain many substances: mineral salts, fats, sugar, water. To heat food using microwaves, it is necessary to have dipole molecules in it, that is, those that have a positive electric charge at one end and a negative one at the other. There are plenty of such molecules in food – these are molecules of both fats and sugars, but the main thing is that the dipole is a water molecule – the most common substance in nature. Each piece of vegetables, meat, fish, fruits contains millions of dipole molecules.

In the absence of an electric field, the molecules are arranged randomly. In an electric field, they line up strictly in the direction of the field lines of force, “plus” in one direction, “minus” in the other. As soon as the field changes direction to the opposite, the molecules immediately turn over 180 degrees.

The magnetron that each microwave oven contains converts electrical energy into a 2450 megahertz (MHz) or 2.45 gigahertz (GHz) ultra-high frequency electric field, which interacts with the water molecules in the food.

Microwaves “bomb” the water molecules in food, causing them to spin at millions of times per second, creating molecular friction that heats the food.

This friction causes significant damage to food molecules, tearing or deforming them. Simply put, the microwave causes food to break down and change its molecular structure through radiation.

Microwaves work only in a relatively small surface layer of food, without penetrating deeper than 1-3 cm. Therefore, heating of products occurs due to two physical mechanisms – heating of the surface layer by microwaves and subsequent penetration of heat into the depth of the product due to thermal conductivity.

When choosing a microwave oven, one should be guided by its main characteristics, among which are the volume of the chamber, the type of control, the presence of a grill, power, and some others. The volume of the chamber is determined by the number of products that fit into the microwave oven.

There are three types of control in microwave ovens – mechanical (the simplest type of control), push-button and touch.

Depending on the functions performed, microwaves are divided into three types: microwaves with microwaves, with grill and microwaves with grill and convection.

As for the additional functions of microwave ovens, the most common ones are the functions of double radiation (for uniform cooking of the product by volume) and auto-weight, which means that electronic sensors will weigh the product and select the cooking time.
