A built-in microwave and grill fits into a kitchen housing unit and combines microwave heating with a grill element. That means you can brown, crisp and toast as well as reheat and defrost. It suits anyone who wants a fitted look without a combi's fan oven. Before buying, check your housing dimensions and leave room in front for a drop-down door.

Bosch offers this type in its Series 8 line. Inverter heating gives steadier power at lower settings, and hydrolytic cleaning uses steam to loosen grime. Controls are a TFT display and a control ring. For more choice, browse all Bosch built-in microwaves, or compare Bosch built-in combi microwaves if you also want convection cooking.
