Performance & Real-World Use\n\nThe Swan Retro Digital Microwave excels at making everyday cooking tasks quicker and easier. For instance, you can use one of the 5 power levels to perfectly reheat a plate of last night's dinner in just a few minutes, or gently melt butter on a lower setting. The dedicated defrost function is invaluable for rapidly thawing frozen meats or vegetables, cutting down on meal prep time without precooking the edges. Imagine needing to quickly thaw chicken breasts for dinner; simply select the defrost option, enter the weight, and let the microwave handle it. The 12 auto cook presets take the guesswork out of common foods like popcorn, pizza, or baked potatoes; just select the program, and it does the rest. The 270mm glass turntable ensures that your food, even standard dinner plates, rotates smoothly for even heating, eliminating cold spots. The clear digital display and 60-minute timer mean you always know exactly how much time is left, preventing over or undercooking.
