Microwave ovens

Professional microwave ovens: the fast-service essential

Reheating a sauce, regenerating a dish, defrosting in minutes: the professional microwave is one of the hardest-working appliances in a horeca kitchen. Our range counts 18 models from 17 to 34 litres, with mechanical or digital controls, by Diamond, Samsung, Buffalo, Menumaster, Tristar and Caterlite, from €127 to €12,347 incl. VAT — from compact back-up units to high-speed combination ovens.

Why choose a professional microwave?

• Real power: 700 to 2100 W output for reheating times that keep up with the rush.
• Robust build: stainless steel cavities and housings made for all-day intensive use.
• Service-ready controls: hard-wearing mechanical dials or programmable digital panels.
• Horeca capacities: up to 34 litres, with cavities accepting GN 2/3 Gastronorm pans.

Mechanical or digital controls?

Mechanical models (7 in the range) adjust in one move and shrug off intensive handling. Digital models (10 in the range) offer memorised programmes and precise power control — ideal when the same preparations come back all day.

Which capacity?

• 17 L: compact back-up from €133 incl. VAT, like the Caterlite CN180, ideal for bars.
• 20 L: versatile, like the Tristar MW-2705 with grill and 8 programmes.
• 25-26 L: the horeca standard, 1000 to 1850 W, from the manual 25 L Buffalo to the programmable 26 L Samsung.
• 34 L: high capacity up to 2100 W, including GN 2/3 cavities like the Diamond DW3421-DE.

High-speed ovens: microwave, convection and combination

At the top of the range, Diamond high-speed ovens (Platinum line) combine microwave, convection and combination cooking with touch-screen control, in 3 kW (LKS/3M) or reinforced 6 kW (LKS/6T) versions — oven quality at microwave speed for high-volume outlets.

FAQ – Professional microwave ovens

How much power do I need?

For back-up use, 700 to 1000 W is enough. For sustained service with repeated reheating, go for 1400 to 2100 W.

What does a GN 2/3 cavity bring?

It takes a Gastronorm 2/3 pan directly: reheat in the same container that then goes to the bain-marie or heated cupboard.

What budget should I plan?

From €127 to €1,611 incl. VAT for standard microwaves; around €12,000 incl. VAT for a high-speed combination oven. Several models are currently on promotion.
