5) Whirlpool’s Convection Over-the-range Microwave: Over-the-range microwaves are more permanent installations than countertop models, and they’re also taking the place of a range hood so we think they’re worth spending a little more money. The Whirlpool convection model is an 1100-watt (1600-watt convection) machine that borders on industrial quality.
It includes a four-speed, 400-cubic-foot-per-minute (cfm) blower that should handle even the heaviest of steams and smokes. Whirlpool’s over-the-range convection microwave is also equipped for “scan-to-cook” technology so that you can scan a food item’s barcode with your phone and send its cooking instructions directly to your microwave. It also offers steam control and sensor cooking to prevent overcooking.

The convection rack is a nice, unique touch that lets you heat multiple items at once, and the large 14-inch turntable should accommodate almost any dish you’d use in the microwave. Because this is a convection oven, you can easily get away with cooking most dishes in the microwave, even if your aim is to brown or crisp your cuisine.
Whirlpool also has a “SteamClean” technology that steams and loosens particles so all you have to do is give a quick wipe with the sponge — a much easier cleaning job than with other microwaves. While you can do this simply enough by microwaving a bowl of water and wiping the microwave clean, it’s more convenient to save yourself the step.
While only a few Amazon shoppers have reviewed it, two of those reviews were extremely enthusiastic. The third was by a disappointed customer whose package was clearly mishandled as it was broken upon arrival. Get it HERE…
On the other hand, if you must have an electronic interface, Toshiba’s EM925A5A-SS is a tremendously popular option recommended by experts and Amazon reviewers alike. If you’re after a vintage look and an ultra-micro-microwave, the Daewoo Retro is a hit among Amazon reviewers, and in turquoise, it’s a bona fide throwback to the golden age of electromagnetic radiation. So that sums up the best microwaves of 2019.
