Buying tips
- “Convection” is the feature to insist on if you want to bake cakes, cookies or grill — solo-only microwaves under this budget can’t do either.
- 20L suits 1–2 people; 23–25L is the practical minimum if you bake regularly or cook for a family of 4.
- IFB and Panasonic ship with the most complete starter accessory kits (trays, racks) — check what’s included before assuming you’ll need to buy bakeware separately.
- All these models need a stable, earthed power socket — avoid running one off an extension board shared with other high-draw appliances.
