The sleek design is complemented by a bright, easy-to-read LED display that adds to the aesthetic appeal while providing important cooking information. The microwave also comes equipped with a turntable, ensuring even cooking by rotating food during the heating process.

Safety is also prioritized with features like a child safety lock, ensuring that little hands cannot accidentally operate the microwave.
