If you have the idea of building a microwave oven into your kitchen furniture, think twice before you proceed with the implementation of your plan.
An expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino , spoke about the pros and cons of this decision.
First, the good news. Of course, a built-in microwave looks impressive, and, besides, you no longer have to worry about where to put it.
That's probably all the advantages.
The disadvantages of such an idea include, first of all, the fact that as a result the cabinet will constantly overheat and be damaged by steam and high temperatures.
It’s not just furniture that’s at risk – anything that’s on shelves in close proximity to a heat source is also at risk of being damaged.
What should people do who do not intend to give up placing the microwave oven in the cabinet, but at the same time want to minimize the harm?
They should correctly calculate the location of the equipment: a practical and relatively safe solution is to install the microwave at hand level and with free access.
This will save you from having to reach for a hot plate or any other object.
