When using just the microwave to cook or heat up food the Spacemaker comes with a special feature which makes use of sensors which detect the humidity levels of various foods while cooking and adjust the cooking time and power level for you in order to get the best microwaving result possible.

This model comes with a separate heating element meant for grilling. During the grilling process this element radiates traditional heat in order to brown and crisp the surface of foods. There is an automatic grilling feature as well which allows you to select the type of food you’re cooking from a menu of pre-programmed options.

This oven can also use both cooking methods at the same time, microwave and the heating element in combination for extra fast and crispy results.

When you’re choosing to cook your food with the Manual feature then you should know that the oven comes with 10 levels of power ranging from level 1 which uses only 10% of the oven’s maximum power and which is generally used for keeping food warm to level 7 which is ideal for cooking poultry and reheating to level 10 which uses the oven’s maximum power to cook things like fish and bacon or to boil liquids.

This oven also comes with a multitude of other features such as a Reminder which is basically a short beep 1 minute after the end of the final beep. There’s a Clock and a Start/Pause feature and also there’s the Control Lock-Out feature which is important if you have children around or if you generally fear that the oven might be accidentally started.

In order to have a properly functioning microwave oven, make sure to give it some basic maintenance from time to time. This would mean that you should clean the inside of the microwave if there is any spillage and also keep the exterior clean as well especially the touch pad in order to avoid any possible malfunctions.

This model’s only disadvantage is its price, ranging from $449 to $519 it is not a cheap microwave, on the other hand it is an over-the-range model.
