Make meal prep effortless with an Electrolux microwave oven

Cooking and reheating meals is as easy as pushing a button with an Electrolux microwave oven. From popping fresh movie night popcorn to baking cupcakes and roasting vegetables, a microwave is a highly versatile and convenient addition to any modern Indian kitchen.

What is a microwave oven?

A microwave oven is a smart kitchen appliance that uses electromagnetic waves to heat food quickly and efficiently. Unlike traditional stovetops that heat the air or the cookware first, microwaves target the water molecules directly inside your food. This means your meals are warmed up, defrosted, or cooked in a fraction of the time it takes using conventional methods.

Why choose an automatic microwave oven?

Adding a microwave to your kitchen setup brings a new level of speed and convenience to your daily routine.

Fast and convenient cooking

Whether you are heating up last night's dinner, making a quick evening snack, or defrosting frozen ingredients, a microwave cuts down your waiting time from hours to mere minutes.

Safe and worry-free operation

Because there are no open flames or hot heating elements exposed on the outside, a microwave is a much safer option for quick heating tasks, especially in busy households.

Energy efficient performance

Since it cooks food much faster than a standard gas stove or traditional electric oven, a microwave consumes significantly less energy for daily reheating and defrosting tasks.

Versatile meal preparation

Modern microwaves go far beyond just warming up food. With the right model, you can easily bake cakes, grill meats, roast vegetables, and steam rice.

How to choose the right microwave oven capacity

Microwave ovens vary in size, usually ranging from compact 15 liter models to spacious 32 liter units and above. The right size depends entirely on the number of people in your home and how extensively you plan to use the appliance.

Use this quick guide to find your ideal fit:

Tip: If you plan to use your microwave extensively for baking and grilling, always opt for a slightly larger capacity to comfortably fit your baking trays and roasting racks.

Which type of microwave installation fits your kitchen?

Microwave ovens come in two main installation types. Choosing the right one depends on your kitchen layout and whether you are remodeling or just looking for a quick appliance upgrade.

Built in microwaves

As the name suggests, built in microwaves are installed directly into your kitchen cabinetry or placed under the counter, just like a built in oven or dishwasher. They always have a fixed place in your kitchen, providing a flush, seamless look that saves valuable countertop space.

Freestanding microwaves

Also known as solo or countertop microwaves, these units can be placed wherever you want them to stand at any given moment. All you need is a flat surface and a power plug. This gives you ultimate flexibility if you need to reorganize your kitchen layout or move to a new home.

What makes an Electrolux microwave oven stand out?

Electrolux microwaves offer the perfect combination of versatile cooking features, outstanding energy efficiency, and reliable daily performance.

Electrolux CombiGrill gives you the perfect crispy finish

CombiGrill automatically divides cooking time between the grill and the microwave, so your food comes out piping hot on the inside and deliciously crisp on the outside. No need to switch between modes or guess the timing.

AirFry lets you enjoy fried taste with less oil

The AirFry tray uses a mesh design that allows super-heated air to crisp the surface of your food. You get that satisfying crunch of fried snacks while using minimal oil - a healthier way to enjoy your favourites.

Convection mode turns your microwave into a full oven

With convection heating, you can roast a whole chicken with crispy skin, bake bread, or make a batch of cupcakes. It is the versatility of a traditional oven in a compact, built-in format.

QuickStart gets meals on the table faster

Press one button to start cooking immediately at full power. QuickStart is perfect for reheating a cup of chai or warming up a quick snack without navigating through menus.

Easy-to-clean cavity means less time scrubbing

The smooth interior surfaces prevent food splatters from sticking, so a quick wipe after cooking keeps your microwave looking fresh.
