The round cavity makes this one of the most practical combi ovens around – and one of the fastest too

  • Pros Larger capacity and faster cooking times possible. Looks good for a microwave
  • Cons No steam function. No barcode reader

By applying a bit of lateral thinking to the common microwave, LG has come up with an even faster and more efficient way of heating up a chicken tikka masala, simply by making the cavity round. And with its radically modern styling, the WaveDOM is as cool as microwaves get.

Pretty fly…for a microwave
The MC8087ARK, as the WaveDOM likes to be known formally, breaks from tradition in terms of tech and style. With its glossy black finish you’d be forgiven for trying to tune it in to Home and Awa – it’s certainly picked up some design tips from LG’s flatscreen tellies. The wipe-clean glass surface also looks superb and the crisp display is easy to read from across the kitchen.

Pull open the door with the long, elegant handle and you’ll instantly notice that the cavity is round and unusually large. There are two advantages to this: firstly, the round walls reflect the microwaves onto the food more effectively, which reduces cooking times by almost a third.
