Home Solutions 

1. Deodorizer Magic

This overlooked feature removes lingering food odours and vapours after cooking. It not only keeps your microwave cavity fresh but also extends the life of internal components like the magnetron.

2. Stainless Steel Cavity

The durable stainless-steel cavity doesn’t just look premium. It helps distribute heat evenly, prevents leakage, and resists stains, making cleaning effortless and more hygienic.

3. Keep Warm Function

Keeping food warm without overcooking is a blessing. This function holds temperature for up to 35 minutes, which means no reheating, no splatters, and less mess to clean.

4. Auto-Clean Preset Menus

Microwaves come with auto-clean or steam-clean programs disguised within auto-cook presets. These help loosen food particles and make wiping down easier with minimal manual effort.

5. Multi-Stage Cooking

You can automate multiple steps in one go, defrost, cook, then grill, without opening the door in between. Fewer interruptions mean fewer messes and more streamlined cleaning.

6. Delay Start Function

Let the microwave begin when you want it to. This helps avoid food sitting too long and over-drying or burning, both of which make cleaning tougher later.

7. Oil-Free Frying Support

Less oil means fewer greasy splashes inside the microwave. Built-in air fryers and home fry menus let you cook crisp snacks without deep cleaning afterward.

8. Combination Cooking Mode

By blending convection, grill, and microwave functions, you reduce cooking time and avoid overcooking. That means fewer spills, burnt bits, and stuck-on messes to scrub out.
