Cleaning and maintenance are made easy with the non-stick interior and removable turntable. The easy-to-clean surfaces help to maintain hygiene and reduce the time spent on upkeep. Moreover, the compact size of the microwave allows for easy placement on countertops without taking up unnecessary space.

Both models come equipped with various preset cooking programs that cater to specific food types, further enhancing their versatility in the kitchen. From popcorn and baked potatoes to defrosting meat, these programmable settings offer convenience and reliability.
