Whirlpool Over-The-Range Microwaves: Multi-Purpose Power
Passionate home chefs are familiar with the smoke, grease and unpleasant odors that are inevitable when cooking. Whirlpool over-the-range microwaves are the ideal solution to this problem, offering the purifying power of a wall hood or range hood while also cooking and reheating food like a traditional microwave. Wall or island hoods can take up space normally reserved for kitchen cabinets or might just not match your ideal kitchen aesthetic; either way, an over-the-range microwave can be an ideal alternative in both situations. If your kitchen is smaller, this multi-tasking potential is especially important. Of course, a double-duty appliance is also a great way to spend a little less money while still enjoying a high-quality product.
Why do you need one of these Whirlpool over-the-range microwaves? Proper ventilation is a non-negotiable in every kitchen. Food odors that linger can become unpleasant and leave your home with a smell you can't get rid of. Smoke from searing or burnt food is unhealthy to breathe in and can also contribute to unpleasant smells in the kitchen. Additionally, grease splatters can accumulate on your cabinets and counters, making them difficult to clean and potentially damaging their finish. That's where these Whirlpool over-the-range microwaves come in. Their charcoal filter purifies the contaminated air before releasing it back into the room, leaving you with a cleaner, healthier environment. Many of these microhoods can also be installed for duct ventilation, giving you the flexibility to choose your preferred ventilation system. If you're not desirous to deal with installing ductwork for your kitchen, the charcoal recirculating filter is still an effective choice.
Convenient Cooking Features
These Whirlpool appliances can do much more than just providing ventilation, though. You can enjoy the full functionality of a countertop microwave and more with features like sensor cooking and convection. Sensor cooking adjusts the cooking time and power to suit whatever food you're craving, leaving you with perfect results each time. Convection is made possible with the convenient convection rack that allows hot air to fully circulate around your meal for fast, even cooking. Some models even offer steam cooking, a feature that's great for a variety of foods including vegetables. If you're looking for the best of the best, we also offer Whirlpool over-the-range microwaves with smart technology. These appliances connect to your home WiFi and can be controlled via your smartphone for the most convenient meals ever.
Additionally, these microhoods are available in a range of shades from modern stainless steel to classic white so you can match the rest of your kitchen appliances perfectly. If aesthetics considerations are an important factor for you, you'll also enjoy the ability to choose between a standard and a low-profile model. Low-profile microwaves have a smaller, sleeker look that practically disappears in your kitchen without sacrificing cooking power.
