Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Hungry Badger sandwich bar in Bristol needed to upgrade their kitchen to cope with an ever-growing lunchtime queue. Their old domestic microwave was slow and  heated things unevenly, causing delays and  frustrating customers.

"The Maestrowave MW1200 has been a revelation. Our ticket times have plummeted because we can heat fillings and  toast baps in a fraction of the time. The presets mean even our newest team member gets it right every time. It just works, plain and  simple."

Robert Davies – Owner, The Hungry Badger

Since installing the MW1200, the team has reduced average customer wait times by over 40% during their busiest periods.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Find a flat, stable counter with plenty of space around the unit for ventilation – at least 10cm on all sides.
  • Ensure the surface can comfortably support its 20 kg weight.
  • It comes with a standard 13 amp UK plug, so simply plug it into a suitable socket. No special wiring needed.
  • Before first use, wipe the interior with a damp cloth and  run it empty for one minute to burn off any residues.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe up spills immediately. A daily wipe-down of the interior and  exterior with a soft cloth is essential.
  • Regularly clean the door seals and  cavity to prevent grease and  food particle build-up, which can affect performance.
  • Never use abrasive scouring pads or harsh chemical cleaners on the stainless steel or the interior.
  • Periodically check that the air vents are clear of dust and  debris to ensure it doesn't overheat.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Microwave

Feeling a bit lost in the world of commercial microwaves? Here are a few key things to consider to make sure you get the perfect fit for your business.

Power & Wattage

Higher wattage means faster cooking. For high-volume spots like cafés and  takeaways, 1200W or more is ideal to keep service snappy.

Controls: Manual vs Programmable

Manual dials are simple, but a programmable commercial microwave allows you to save settings for menu items, ensuring perfect results whoever is on shift.

Size and  Capacity

Check the internal dimensions (cavity size) to ensure your standard plates and  containers will fit comfortably inside.

Build Quality

Look for a stainless steel body and  interior. It’s far more durable than plastic and  much easier to keep hygienically clean.

Usage Level

Be honest about how much you'll use it. Light-duty models won't last in a busy kitchen. This Maestrowave is built for heavy, repeated use all day long.
