Hotpoint SUPREMECHEF MWH338SX 33 Litre Combination Microwave Oven - Stainless Steel

Perfect microwave that is a fairly large size. It is packed with features that encourages you to consider using it in different ways. The touch screen is a nice feature.

I'm very please with this piece of equipment. My previous Panasonic combi microwave lasted going on 20 years and served me well. Looking for a replacement proved complex as I particularly didn't want hundreds of pre-set cooking programmes which I never use. I'm very happy with all I've done so far in the week that I've had it but still more to try. I use my combi microwave very much as a back up to my Aga either when I cooking for lots of people or when the Aga is off for some reason and this piece of equipment covers every possible need and gives me a proper grill which an Aga doesn't have so I can have the joys of cheese on toast! However, I certainly don't use it daily so don't always remember times for cooking some things eg corn on the cob and there is very limited information in the handbook on this and no signpost to additional info that might be available perhaps on the internet. Major pluses: ease of use with clear guidance on the machine. It's easy to work out how to use the microwave without referring to the handbook for instance Key minuses: The size of the thing and the fact that 36 cm clear space is needed above the machine when it is in position, (which I imagine only applies when the oven is used) which is very difficult to achieve between a normal work surface and wall cupboard. I knew this when I bought it, because I'd read the reviews, and I planned for it but I think this is a key issue especially for smaller kitchens

I absolutly love this machine. It works as both a microwave, Oven, Grill and is fab at doing all of them things. I have had it for about a week and have been playing around with all the different settings of it. I do have to admit because it can do so much I have been refering to the manual alot but the usual uses are easy to use. We used the microwave function for some reheating and it was so powerfull it came out steaming throughout in no time at all. And on top of that it stayed warm for ages which with alot of microwaves I have found that it will warm up the outside and goes cold within a couple of minutes. We have also used it to make a whole chicken and it cooked it perfectly in 30 minutes. I was abit hessistant and was prepared to put it back in for another 15 thinking it would still be pink but when it beeped and i got it out it was done. The only down side I would say about this machine is that it is big. When we got it out of the box I was abit taken a back and even when we got it onto the counter top it took some getting used to. Pros definatly do outway the cons and I would 100% recommend this to anyone.

Perfect combination for a microwave oven! If you haven’t got room for both, then this is the answer. Smaller than a normal oven so easy to fit in your kitchen. Would recommend to fit like a normal oven as probably too big for the worktop! Really easy to use and modern technology throughout. Simple to use and easy to set up, love the look very modern

Very pleased with my microwave Made a full English breakfast Sausages Bacon easy cook Crisp and tasty Replace Deep fryer Very clean no mess Made potatoe chips very pleased Also cooked crispy chicken Have not needed to use oven very pleased with this product

This combination microwave oven was perfect for me, as I did not have a grill at home (just an Aga) and it fills in the gaps for me with the grill and crisping function. It's a very smart looking appliance, in stainless steel and gloss black. The dual crisp technology means that the microwave and grill work together which is perfect for thins like chips and roast potatoes so you can get a crispy finish and soft inside- I made perfect roast potatoes in it only using a little bit of oil- it will crisp the bottom and the top so no need for turning. It's very easy to use- with my favourite 'quick start' function which gives you 30 seconds (easily increased with the dial), and there are lots of pre-set cooking choices that you can use- eg. melting chocolate, defrosting bread. Also a great function is that there is that you do not need to stir halfway through cooking, the microwave has multiwave technology which basically means that it doesn't give you hot and cold spots in the food as a lot of other models do. This would be perfect for anyone looking for a totally multipurpose cooker- you can cook so many things in it, and it pretty much covers all bases! For me the only downside is the ventilation space it requires (30cm above it) which means it doesn't fit under any of my overhanging cupboards, and as it is a large appliance I have struggles slightly to find an appropriate space for it in the kitchen. I am so happy to have this for Christmas as I feel like it will take care of some of the elements and free up oven space so I won't be juggling things!
