Smeg 34L 1800W Freestanding Combination Microwave Oven | MOE34CXIUK | Stainless Steel

Inverter Technology

This countertop microwave uses Inverter technology which provides continuous and precise emissions of microwaves, so it is possible to cook and defrost food in a more gradual and consistent way, producing a difference you can really taste! Non-inverter microwaves use pulsing power control which turns the microwaves on-off, whilst Inverter technology provides continuous microwaves at precise temperatures so there are no abrupt temperature peaks, more accurate temperature control is possible, and taste, nutrients and vitamins are well preserved. The continuous flow of microwaves (at a precise power level) speeds up cooking, defrosting and re-heating programmes, making this microwave approximately 30% quicker than a standard one.

High power levels do not need to be used, which means less damage and loss of nutrients when cooking, whilst defrosting using the inverter technology stops the outside of the food from being overcooked but still frozen on the inside. The MOE34CXI is approximately 50% quieter when in use compared to standard microwaves and uses approximately 10% less energy when in use/50% in standby, saving you time and money.

Convection Cooking

In addition to microwaving food, this freestanding microwave oven provides convection cooking. This means it can be used as a secondary oven giving you more options in the kitchen.

There are 10 functions including Smeg’s circulaire function which provides quick, multi-layered cooking with excellent browning results. Due to the effective circulation of hot air, there is no flavour transfer between foods so delicate and strongly fragranced foods can be cooked at the same time.

There is also a grill function, plus 40 preset recipes and 10 automatic programmes.
