The TEKA ML 8220 BIS L-SM is a sophisticated 20-liter built-in microwave oven from the Urban Colors Edition, designed to integrate seamlessly into modern kitchen cabinetry. This appliance combines an 800W microwave output with a powerful 1200W drop-down grill, offering versatile cooking options from rapid heating to perfect browning. Featuring a durable stainless steel cavity and an innovative ceramic base, it ensures uniform heat distribution without the need for a traditional rotating turntable, maximizing the usable interior space.

Advantages

This microwave oven stands out due to its advanced ceramic base technology, which eliminates cold spots and provides consistent cooking results across all food types. The inclusion of a drop-down grill allows for easy cleaning of the upper heating element, while the electronic glass control panel with a digital clock offers intuitive operation. With five distinct power levels and nine direct access menus, users can achieve precise results for various dishes. The forced tangential ventilation system ensures that the unit remains cool during operation, protecting surrounding kitchen furniture.

Suitable for

• Rapid reheating of pre-cooked meals
• Defrosting frozen foods using specialized programs
• Grilling and browning sandwiches, vegetables, or meats
• Daily cooking tasks requiring consistent heat distribution

This appliance may not be suitable for households requiring large-capacity ovens for roasting whole turkeys or large poultry, as the 20-liter interior is optimized for standard daily portions. Additionally, users who prefer traditional rotating glass trays may find the ceramic base system requires a slight adjustment in how food is positioned for optimal heating.
