Stainless steel interior microwave

K9sandFelines

I'd set my heart on a Whirlpool Max microwave, but knowing it has a painted interior puts me off .The microwave i currently have which was previously my late grandma's, and is a painted one; which has started to peel tthough still works.

I don't have a massive budget; but not bothered by make and no need for a combination,. Would prefer digital but manual is fine. Colourwise, white or cream would be great, even red. Do not want black or silver.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think the interior of a microwave oven can be stainless steel - you can't put metal things in them can you?

Try and Google microwave with stainless steel interior, there are lot of them out there, including the Panasonic we own.

I have a built in combination microwave oven with a stainless steel interior as I much prefer this kind of interior to a painted one. Mine is a Baumatic, but quite a few manufactures do the SS interior models.

It tends to be the lower priced microwaves that only have a painted interior.

Well I never knew that! I'll have to look it up on Google.

I know you definitely can get them as I had a delonghi one in the past, Easitronic or something like that but it stopped working.

Tried that, but thought someone may have seen a bargàin on their travels. I used to have a Panasonic one years ago too,but can't remember what happened to it.

Wonder if they do stand alone. Will have a gander ...

Hi, the ovens with stainless steel interiors are GENERALLY combination ones that also have an integral oven or grill .

This is because of the extra heat involved which enamel wouldn't be suitable for.

There a few basic microwaves with stainless interiors but you can expect the price to be much higher.

What do you mean by 'wonder if they do stand alone' ?

Best option would be to buy one with an inbuilt oven or grill even if you never use the extra features!

#8 The lady said she had a built in Baumatic, so i was wondering if they were available also as stand alone ... which they do.

Still looking for a reasonably priced micro. Thanks for your reply and useful info.
