GE Stainless Steel Microwave Oven

* Compact microwave- A compact microwave, also called small or portable, is the smallest type of typically available consumer microwave. Compacts are the most popular size of microwave oven. A typical model is no more than 50 cm (18 inches) wide, 35 cm (14 inches) or less deep and 30 cm (12 inches) or less tall. These ovens are rated between 500 and 1000 watts of power and measure less than 28 litres (1 cubic foot) in capacity. These ovens are primarily used for reheating food and making microwave meals and popcorn. The largest models will accommodate a 2 litre (2 quart) round casserole dish and are suitable for light cooking. These ovens are not made to cook large amounts of food. Their compact size and low wattage make these ovens ubiquitous in college dormitories and office breakrooms everywhere. Typically these models cost less than 100 USD.

* Medium-capacity microwave-These microwaves are larger than compact microwaves. Their heights and depths are only marginally larger than compacts, but they are typically 50 cm (20 inches) wide or more. Their interiors are typically between 30 and 45 litres (1.0 and 1.5 cubic feet) and power runs from 1000-1500 watts. These are the standard "family" sized microwave. They cook marginally faster and can accommodate small square casseroles, large round casseroles, and large bowls. They are suitable for cooking vegetables and small pieces of meat and large frozen entrees. They have a few more "auto-cook" features.

* Large-capacity microwave- These are big microwaves designed for cooking meals. Large-capacity ovens can handle 25×35 cm (9×13 inch) casserole dishes, cook tall items like roasts or turkey breast, and have a large number of "auto-cook" and precise temperature control measures. Large capacity oven normally use over 2000 watts and have over 60 litres (2 cubic feet) of capacity. These ovens are normally well-over 50 cm (20 inches) wide, as much as 50cm (20 inches) deep, and 30 cm (12 inches) or more high.

* Countertop microwaves dominate the market. These ovens are designed to sit on a counter or table.

* Built-in microwaves are ovens that are built into the cabinetry similar to traditional ovens. These ovens are typically more expensive than countertops. Some built in microwaves are combined with an exhaust fan for installation above a cooktop.
