Daewoo microwave reviews
In the Which? lab we test microwaves on a wide range of criteria, including speed, quality and evenness of cooking, defrosting ability and ease of use. We also test how well each microwave cooks a jacket potato and, if it has the ability, a whole chicken, a tray of toast and a batch of cakes.
In our tough tests Daewoo microwaves tend to score well for ease of use and a couple of models score excellently for quality of food. The combi microwaves that are able to bake cakes tend to score well for this and have achieved average to good scores for roasting a whole chicken.
However, several models score poorly or very poorly for evenness of cooking, a couple of models score very poorly for quality of cooking and scores for speed of cooking range from excellent to very poor.
If you’re considering buying a Daewoo microwave, check how well it scores on a variety of criteria by visiting our microwave test results.
When testing speed of cooking, we measure how long a microwave takes to heat a ready meal to a minimum of 70°C. If you want a microwave that cooks particularly quickly, check the speed of cooking scores for each microwave in our microwave reviews.
