    A 1,000-watt microwave will cook quickly and efficiently. Microwaves with 700 watts or less are slower and may not cook evenly. In general, the higher the wattage, the faster the cooking time.

Warnings

  • Older microwaves work differently than new ones. Different brands aren't all alike either. Check the timing, if needed, until the timing is perfect.
