The \u003cstrong\u003edefrost function\u003c\/strong\u003e is the one most households use daily, thawing meat from the freezer in minutes instead of hours on the counter, which is a genuine food-safety improvement as well as a convenience.

Larger families or anyone reheating big serving dishes should look at 25 to 30 litres, and it is worth measuring your counter and allowing clearance at the back and sides for ventilation, since blocked vents cause overheating. Power levels are the specification people ignore and then miss — six levels let you cook rather than only blast, and low power is what stops chocolate seizing and butter exploding. Defrost is worth using properly: thaw in stages, turning the food, rather than in one long cycle that cooks the edges. Practical notes: never run it empty, use microwave-safe containers only, cover food to keep the interior clean, and wipe spills quickly because dried-on food absorbs microwave energy and creates hot spots. Clean the door seal, which is what maintains the shielding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst a larger 25 to 30-litre microwave, this fits smaller kitchens and costs less, though it will not take a big serving dish. Compared with a microwave with grill, this has no browning element, so it reheats and cooks rather than crisping. Against an air fryer, an air fryer crisps and roasts where a microwave reheats and defrosts far faster — they complement each other. Against a gas hob, a microwave is quicker and more economical for reheating single portions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs 20 litres big enough?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt takes a standard dinner plate and suits one to four people, which covers most households.
