How many watts should an efficient microwave be?

Answer 1

Contrary to the popular advice that you should always buy the most powerful microwave that you can afford, I feel that this is the wrong advice as most cooking instructions on food packets, are for 700w or 800w microwaves or thereabouts, and if you have a more powerful microwave, you are only left guessing as to the time and power level you are going to use! So yes, I would say that 700w is not such a bad choice.

Answer 2

Efficient at cooking food - 700-800 watts.

Answer 3

An efficient microwave should typically have a power output ranging from 800 to 1200 watts. This range allows for quick and even cooking of various types of foods while also being energy-efficient.
