Samsung launches its two Premium 28L Microwave Ovens

Remember long ago when your mother used to defrost meat by leaving it out in the kitchen for the entire day, and when meals had to be planned well in advance? Microwaves have undergone a huge transformation, not only in technological innovation, but in design as well and Samsung's latest range of Premium 28L rapid defrost microwaves (Ogun Electronic and Ogun Grill) are icons of the kitchen.

The microwave has evolved from the unsightly white "block" to the small, visually appealing and compact versions which are perfect for first time home owners, or consumers who prefer oven cooking, but still enjoy the convenience that a microwave offers. With Samsung's latest in technological advancements, the microwave has once again become even more convenient to consumers by being able to multitask as other appliances are set in their ways. The Samsung Premium 28L Electronic and Grill Microwaves boast a sleek and modern design that will fit into any kitchen. The Ogun Grill microwave oven combines traditional microwave technology with a grill and convection oven and offers consumers the ultimate in versatility, simplicity and convenience.

The Ogun Grill model can be used in combination or as a stand alone allowing consumers to prepare just about anything. By using the grill and the convection mode, chicken can be browned and cooked at the same time. If your mother in law is coming round for dinner and you need to prepare a roast leg of lamb, select the microwave and convection mode for a perfectly prepared meal. Alternatively, use the modes independently as required. The Ogun Electronic model comes standard with the upgraded Pro-Steamer function, which is bigger, wider and more versatile. When steaming food the improved steam plated keeps the food and water separate and prevents the water boiling over.

Senior Product Marketing Manager of Home Appliances at Samsung South Africa, Bronwyn Hume says that microwaves traditionally are used for only heating food. "However, with the advancement of technology it has become possible for microwaves to perform virtually any function of an oven as well as add style to your kitchen," says Hume.

These units unveil a strong sturdy design with a stainless steel and black front casing with the Ogun Grill housing a ceramic enamel interior, therefore complementing the latest in kitchen designs. As these units combine three appliances in one, there is no longer a need for a traditional convection oven, making it perfect for bachelors, fashionistas, as well as for larger households. Key features of the microwave include a stylish LED Display with an impressive tact keypad, as well as a one touch and think sensor which can be used in the microwave mode to make microwave cooking even easier. In addition, the crusty plate allows consumers to crisp bacon without the mess and the low and high racks ensure that preparing a roast side of beef is easy and convenient.

Cleaning up is a breeze with the Ogun Grill. All you have to do is pour water and detergent into the steam clean container, place the container inside the microwave's cavity, push the steam clean button and 15 minutes later wipe off the excess steam with a cloth.

Imagine adding style and convenience to your kitchen with just one appliance, with Samsung's Premium 28L microwave ovens it is not that hard to imagine.
