Now that the decades-long debate as to whether microwaved food is really edible has long subsided, almost every household has a box that “pings” at the end of the cooking or thawing process. However, the range of functions of microwaves has greatly expanded beyond pure defrosting and heating. Meanwhile, microwaves can also grill, hot air and steam cooking.
The Medion model, which Aldi will be offering in its online shop from February 7, 2022 for 69.99 euros, is a solo microwave: the device has 6 power levels, 700 watts of maximum power, warms up, thaws and makes “ping”. The Severin microwave on Amazon has a lot more performance and functions, but you can also use it to grill and hot air cook.
