which micro wave oven

Post by bluedirtydigit »

I am looking for a small micro wave oven to pop in the camper I know it's not true camping but I do need one just wondering which one others are using, I don't need a big one or anything fancy, on off switch and a couple of settings is fine, appreciate any feedback. Thanks in advance.

Personally, I wouldn't have one. BUT, if you insist are you after a 12v or a 240v microwave?

12v ones are stupidly expensive and are only sensible to use when the engine is running or you flatten your batteries.

For 240v - have a look at what motorhome manufacturers are fitting or go to Argos. Remember that you need to leave venting space to stop them overheating.

I use a 700w 230v one in my Merc from an inverter but I have plenty of battery power for that. It was only put in for occasional use by No.3 daughter, personally I wouldn't bother! A normal gas oven is far more useful and that is what I use.
