Kenwoos CUR072769 Kenwood K25MMS14 Solo Microwave-Silver, Plastic, 900 W, 25 liters

Product Information

Solo microwaves are the ultimate for simple tasks, but remember: high price and high wattage does not necessarily equal high quality. The K20MSS15 is designed for simple everyday cooking rather than large or complicated meals. It’s a solo model, so it doesn’t have a grill or convection oven, and the 20 litre capacity is relatively small. These factors, combined with the 800W power output, mean it’s not the fastest or most advanced Kenwood microwave. Like any microwave, the K20MSS15 isn’t perfect. The turntable isn’t as stable as we would like, which can be frustrating when you’re trying to cook something that can spill. The small size will also put people off – but this is clearly a microwave that’s designed for couples rather than large families.

Microwaves come in a range of sizes, from compact countertop models to larger machines, so consider how much kitchen space you can afford to give up. Some combination microwaves are double the size of their solo counterparts! Look at door size, too. Big doors that open wide make removing hot or heavy dishes much easier. Some combination models have a handy drop-down door. Clearance space This generally varies from around 17L to over 32L. For larger households, look for at least 27L, but the turntable size and interior height are more important than capacity. To accommodate larger plates and bigger portions, the turntable diameter should be at least 30cm and the interior height more than 20cm. Size As we covered earlier choosing a brand can be really key to getting the right product in the Microwaves category. There are loads of great brands out there each offering great products at different levels of quality and price. If brand is important to you, we’re sure you already know that Kenwood is a great choice. With 84 products available from Kenwood there’s plenty of choice too. Consider the price. We’ll dive into a lot more detail on the price of KENWOOD K25MMS14 Solo Microwave shortly, but in terms of quality, the obvious advice here is ‘you get what you pay for’. It’s really just being aware that if you’re buying the cheapest of the Microwaves from Currys PC World you might not expect the same level of quality as you’d get from a decent quality product like KENWOOD K25MMS14 Solo Microwave. Additionally, the 25 litre capacity makes it suitable for large families. With a turntable diameter of 31.5cm, there aren’t many dinner plates that won’t fit. The capacity is amongst the largest for a solo microwave, so if you need to cook plenty of food but don’t want to pay for a combination microwave, this model could be a good option.

1. Kenwood K25MMS14

Kenwood is known for its durable and long-lasting products, and their microwaves are no exception. Built with high-quality materials and rigorous manufacturing standards, Kenwood microwaves are designed to withstand the test of time. Investing in a Kenwood microwave ensures that you have a reliable appliance that will serve you for years to come, making it a cost-effective choice in the long run. H3: Versatility in Cooking The next step in the price analysis was to look at the average price you would typically expect to pay for Microwaves and as Currys PC World was selected for this review we’ve used them for gathering our information on the average price of Microwaves. Only use microwave-safe containers and tableware. Ceramics, glassware and some plastics are fine but avoid anything metal.

Seemingly simple, microwaves have come a long way since the days of pressing a button and waiting for the ping. Here are some of the key features to look out for when buying a microwave. Capacity The heating category simply reflects the wattage; A is the least powerful and E the most. Categories further down the alphabet cook food faster. Turntable or flatbed The K30GSS13 is a microwave with grill. It’s one of the most expensive Kenwood models on this list, but we think it provides value due to its excellent performance and large size. It also has a range of useful features to speed up your cooking.

Another excellent Kenwood solo microwave is the K20MSS15. It’s an 800W model, so it doesn’t quite have the power of the K25MMS14, but it makes up for this with a lower price and an (arguably) more stylish design. It also features an attractive stainless steel design which will suit almost any kitchen decor. The curved handle and digital front panel create a contemporary feel.

Wattage equals power, and it ranges from 650W to 1950W. In general, the higher the wattage, the faster the cooking time. Other features include eleven microwave power levels, defrost function and auto cook menus. The touch controls are simple to use, and the interior cavity is made from enamel, making it easy to clean. Like all the best 900W microwaves, the K25MMS14 has enough power to cook food fast without leaving cold patches. If you’re tired of microwaves that don’t cook evenly, it’s a great choice. There’s also five power levels, eight automatic cook programmes (including fish, vegetables and pizza) and a defrost function. Solos tend to be cheap, compact, easy to use and less bulky than combination models, saving you kitchen space.

Kenwood K25MSS11 Features

Don't operate your microwave oven when it's empty; the microwaves will bounce off the interior and could damage the oven. Consider the brand. We’ll go into more detail in a moment about brand and whether Kenwood is your best option for Microwaves. But the point here is just to make sure you’re factoring in brand when considering the quality of a product. Some brands will be better known for quality than others, and no doubt some of the much higher quality brands will attract a higher price for their products. The Kenwood K25MSS11 stainless steel microwave oven is a relatively inexpensive yet powerful appliance. It’s a solo model with 900W power output, touch controls and a large capacity of 25L. If you regularly use your microwave for large amounts of food, the K25MSS11 could be an excellent option. Keep reading our Kenwood K25MSS11 review for more information about the product, along with buyer’s opinions. Some combination microwaves only have pre-set programs for combination cooking. This means the microwave power level and convection temperature are fixed – medium microwave and 180°C/350°F, for example. Ideally, chose a model with power versatility. Heating categories
