Why You Need A Hisense Microwave For Stress-Free Mealtimes

Ready to start enjoying speedier, easier, more energy-smart cooking with the latest Hisense microwaves? Here’s how:

Big Enough For Family Meals

If you thought microwaves were perfect for reheating last night’s curry but not equal to a big pasta bake, you can think again. The Hisense 34L 1100W Smart Inverter Microwave Dark Stainless Steel and the Hisense 42L 1100W Smart Inverter Microwave Dark Stainless Steel are roomy inside so you can cater to even the hungriest tribe.
 

Perfectly Even Heating

No-one likes tucking into a meal, only to find cold spots mid-bite! The advanced inverter technology in both the Hisense 34L 1100W Smart Inverter Microwave Dark Stainless Steel and the Hisense 42L 1100W Smart Inverter Microwave Dark Stainless Steel ensures you’ll enjoy evenly heated food, every time.

Wondering “what is an inverter microwave?” “Inverter microwaves heat, reheat or defrost your food at a consistent power level for the whole duration of the cooking process, which means you’ll avoid overheating, loss of flavour, or any of those dreaded cold bits at the centre,” explains Nick Trajkovski. Genius.

Dashing Design

With sleek, black glass and polished stainless steel, these strikingly modern microwaves, as well as the Hisense 20L 800W Compact Microwave in beautiful matte black, have what it takes to be your new benchtop centrepiece. Plus, with a fingerprint-resistant surface and an easy-clean interior, your new Hisense microwave will stay that way too, inside and out. Prefer a lighter vibe? The Hisense 25L 900W Countertop Microwave Pearl White is as chic as they come.  

Peace-Loving

Don’t want noisy dings disturbing movie night or sleeping bub? Simply hit the mute button on your Hisense microwave oven and enjoy quiet time.

Your Favourites On Demand

With their six handy Chef Menu presets, Hisense microwaves put all of your family’s favourite Ps at your fingertips with one touch (looking at you, popcorn, potato and pasta!) – so you can get back to what you were doing sooner. There’s even a dedicated setting for hot drinks or melting butter.

No Guesswork

Offering you 10 power levels, Hisense microwaves help you nail any dish, whether you’re heating up last night’s leftovers or creating a culinary masterpiece. If you’ve come over all Curtis Stone and want to bake some fresh bread,  just dial your microwave down to 30 per cent power at Level 3 and let the magic happen gently. Craving a fluffy, piping-hot jacket potato? Hit Level 9 for sensational spuds. Or, to defrost that steak in time for dinner, crank it up to Level 10. Precision cooking without the pressure. Love that.
