Overview
A grill function adds browning to this Emerson countertop microwave, and a removable glass turntable rotates food through the cavity. Buttons and an LED timer display set the power level, the auto menus and the child lock.
The larger cavity takes full plates, and the grill gives crisp tops on casseroles and sandwiches that microwave power alone leaves soft. The unit needs a wide counter, and the preset count in the title differs from the spec sheet.
Who it's for
Families, students and busy cooks who want one appliance for reheating and light grilling will use the auto menus. Anyone needing convection or air fry modes should look at a combination oven.
Pros and cons
- Grill function for browning
- Large cavity takes full plates
- Auto menus for common foods
- Child safety lock
- Heavy and wide for a countertop
- Preset count differs between title and specs
- Grill is not a convection oven
- Needs wide counter space
Performance notes
Microwave power heats food from inside, and the grill adds radiant heat to brown the top. Combo power levels mix both, which suits pizza and casseroles. Auto menus apply fixed power and time, so dense food may need extra time. The turntable rotates food through the energy for even heating.
