Description
This 20-liter, 700 W Sankey microwave is the right size for an apartment kitchen or a small household, with enough capacity to reheat a full plate or defrost the day’s meat without taking up too much counter space. Its dial controls, with no electronic display, are an advantage where voltage fluctuations are common.
Features
- Unit format, 20-liter capacity.
- 700 W power with six adjustable levels.
- 24.5-centimeter glass turntable.
- Mechanical timer up to 30 minutes.
- Weight-based defrost function.
To heat something up, just turn the time dial to the minutes needed and set the power level to match what you’re cooking: high for liquids and quick reheats, medium for larger portions that need even heating without drying out around the edges. The glass turntable spreads heat more evenly than a fixed base and lifts out easily for separate washing. The weight-based defrost function asks how many grams the piece of meat or fish weighs and calculates the time automatically, skipping the manual guesswork that often ends in half-thawed food or edges that start cooking before the center thaws. Without sensitive electronic components, the unit holds up better through power outages and voltage surges than a model with a digital display, which tends to be the first part to fail.
It ships ready to use, with the glass plate and turntable ring inside the cavity, wrapped in film for transport that should be peeled off before the first run. It’s best placed with some open space around it for ventilation, on a stable countertop rather than a narrow shelf, and wiped down inside with a damp cloth after any use involving food that splatters.
