Shop On Expert.ie for a New Microwave or Microwave Oven 

A microwave still earns its place in the kitchen because it handles the jobs people do every day: reheating leftovers, defrosting food quickly, warming drinks and making fast meals easier. The right choice usually depends less on brands and more on how you want to use it.

Before buying, most shoppers want clear answers to a few practical questions: 

Do you need a simple freestanding microwave or a built-in model?

Freestanding options are the easiest route for everyday use, while built-in microwaves suit fitted kitchens and cleaner appliance runs. 

Would a combi- microwave make more sense?

If you only want reheating and defrosting, a standard microwave is often enough. If you want grilling, browning or more oven-style flexibility, a combi route is worth considering. 

How much capacity do you need?

A smaller microwave can be fine for lighter daily use, but larger homes usually benefit from more internal space and a bigger turntable. 

How important is wattage?

Higher wattage usually means faster cooking and reheating, but usable space and format matter just as much in everyday use. 

What do you need to fit?

Check shelf depth, built-in housing space, ventilation and whether your usual plates and dishes will fit comfortably inside. 

When you purchase a microwave from Expert.ie, you are purchasing peace of mind. We offer Best Price Promise, Delivery Nationwide, Easy Returns, Free Recycling, Humm Finance and Find Store support, making it an easy choice to shop with Expert.

Microwave Buying FAQs

Should I buy a freestanding or built-in microwave?
Choose freestanding when you want flexible everyday use. Choose built-in when the microwave needs to fit neatly into a fitted kitchen or appliance bank.
Is a combi microwave worth it?
Yes, when you want more than reheating and defrosting. A combi model makes more sense when grilling and extra cooking flexibility matter.
How many litres do I need in a microwave?
Smaller capacities can work well for light daily use, while larger homes usually benefit from more room for bigger plates, bowls and family reheating.
How much wattage should I look for?
Higher wattage usually means faster cooking and reheating, but usable capacity and format often matter just as much in everyday use.
Will a standard dinner plate fit?
That depends on the internal size and turntable, so it is always worth checking the listed capacity and dimensions before you buy.
What should I compare first when buying a microwave?
Start with freestanding versus built-in, then decide whether you only need reheating or want a combi route with more cooking flexibility.
