Cooking performance and flexibility
The supplied information indicates 800 W microwave power for everyday reheating and cooking, alongside a 1000 W full grill for browning and finishing dishes. The microwave-plus-grill mode adds flexibility when a dish needs both heating and surface colour.
Defrosting is included as a dedicated function, while the eight automatic programmes are intended to simplify common cooking tasks. Multi-session cooking also supports recipes that require more than one stage.
Design and installation
This is a built-in appliance with a 20-litre capacity, making it intended for integration into a fitted kitchen rather than countertop use. Its Universal styling is paired with a stainless-steel finish.
The fingerproof treatment is a practical touch for a frequently handled appliance, helping the front maintain a neater appearance between cleans. The available product information does not provide installation dimensions, controls or details of included accessories, so these should be checked before fitting.
