Top 5 Best Microwave Ovens in Malaysia

Smaller than a standard oven but more efficient than a stove, the microwave oven continues to make waves (pun intended) in homes across Malaysia. We strive to be a reliable guide of all things electronics. So, here’s a list of the top 5 best microwave ovens you can buy in Malaysia and why they might be suitable for you.

1. Sharp R207EK Microwave Oven (Best for Anyone)

Specification	Type: Countertop Function: Reheat, Boil, Defrost, Steam Capacity: 20 L Power Consumption: 800 W Size: 440 X 259 x 359 mm Weight: 11 kg
Pros	Affordable Energy-saving Great for steaming Chinese and English labels Child lock available
Cons	Low power Small capacity Preset buttons mostly for steaming Button labels difficult to read

Coming in hot and the first one on our list is the Sharp Microwave R207EK. This sleek and compact microwave oven is a top pick for many because it packs a good amount of features at a very affordable price. 

Its convection function and 255 mm turntable distribute heat evenly, making sure you’ll never eat a half-defrosted chicken. This bilingual microwave oven even has steam presets, which means you get to steam a variety of foods like fish and vegetables at a push of a button.

2. Sharp R357EK 25L Microwave Oven (Best for Big Families)

Specification	Type: Countertop Function: Reheat, Boil, Defrost Capacity: 25 L Power Consumption: 900 W Size: 513 x 307 x 430 mm Weight: 20 kg
Pros	Energy-saving Decent capacity Large turntable Chinese and English labels Child lock available
Cons	Slightly expensive No steaming, baking, or grilling functions

Another winner from Sharp, the R357EK comes with 6 preset buttons and is the perfect choice for families. The mirror glass door is highly appealing and makes for an ultra-sleek addition to the modern kitchen. 

Its 25 L capacity and 325 mm turntable mean this spacious microwave oven is more than capable of reheating larger food portions. Large families say the R357EK is definitely worth its slightly expensive price tag. Just don’t expect to do any baking or grilling as it only has a reheating function.

3. Samsung 23L Grill Microwave Oven MG23T5018CN/SM (Best for the Health-Conscious)

Specification	Type: Countertop Function: Reheat, Boil, Defrost, Grill, Bake Capacity: 23 L Power Consumption 1200 W Size: 489 x 275x 381 mm Weight: 14.3 kg

Cons	Very expensive Not all colours available in Malaysia

Strikingly aesthetic, the Samsung 23 L Grill Microwave Oven is designed to impress. This gorgeous Samsung microwave comes with a clean and highly responsive touch sensory panel, using glass touch technology. Its ceramic interior also makes it very easy to clean. 

The most prominent feature of this microwave oven is its “Grill Fry” function. You don’t have to own an oven now to enjoy the fragrant flavours and crispy texture of baked or grilled food. This unique feature lets you create healthier alternatives to fried food that still taste amazing.

4. Toshiba MW2-MM21PF(BK) Microwave Oven (Best for Bachelors)

Specification	Type: Countertop Function: Reheat, Boil, Defrost Capacity: 21 L Power Consumption: 800 W Size: 440 x 347x 258 mm Weight: 11 kg
Pros	Quiet operation Easy and handy controls Slip-proof rubber feet
Cons	Low power Small capacity

Up next, we have a simple microwave oven featuring classic dial-type control panels and a pull handle. Its all-black exterior gives off a cool, modern vibe and will sit nicely on any countertop. This microwave oven is a great choice for bachelors and small families. 

Don’t worry about being distracted by the loud humming typical of other microwave ovens because this quiet appliance will reheat your food with minimum noise. Its rubber feet not only elevates the oven but also prevents it from falling as you cook up a storm in the kitchen.

5. Midea 20L Microwave Oven MM720CGE (Best for Minimalists)

Specification	Type: Countertop Function: Reheat, Boil, Defrost Capacity: 20 L Power Consumption: 700 W Size: 440 x 340x 259 mm Weight: 11.37 kg

Last but not least, this budget-friendly microwave oven is for anyone who isn’t fussy about bells and whistles when it comes to their kitchen appliances. Ideal for lazy people, this Toshiba microwave oven lets you defrost anything from fries to fillets straight from the freezer.

Sure, it doesn’t even have a digital display. But this compact oven thaws your food fast and doesn’t cost all that much. If you think about it, what more do you really need?
