But how exactly do they work, and is it the right choice for you? In our guide below, we’ll explain what a wall oven and microwave combo is and how it works, and then we'll take a deeper look at its benefits.

Shop Wall OvensWhat is a Wall Oven Microwave Combo?
A wall oven microwave combo pairs a standard wall oven with a built-in microwave in one vertical appliance, to give households a space-saving setup that handles fast reheating and full baking without taking over the kitchen. People appreciate them because they reduce countertop clutter and keep all cooking tasks in one place, which is especially helpful in busy homes.
Many shoppers look at a 24” wall oven microwave combo for compact spaces. On the other hand, people with larger kitchens sometimes choose a 27 inch wall oven microwave combo or a 30-inch unit for more capacity and features. Brands known for building dependable options include Thermador, SKS, JennAir, Electrolux, Café, GE Profile, KitchenAid, and Frigidaire Gallery. These companies focus on strong performance, clean design lines, and intuitive controls, which makes the upgrade worthwhile for anyone who wants convenience without sacrificing cooking power.

Benefits of Wall Oven Microwave Combos
A thoughtfully designed kitchen works best when every appliance adds value without crowding the space. That’s why a wall oven microwave combo appeals to households looking for efficiency and better workflow. This setup brings two essential tools together in a way that reduces clutter and keeps cooking tasks running smoothly, especially during busy mealtimes. Here are 5 benefits you can experience when you get a wall oven and microwave combo.
✅ Streamlined Use of Vertical Space
A tall cabinet opening becomes far more productive when a microwave and oven sit together. The design frees up countertops and base cabinets, giving you more room for prep work, storage, or additional appliances you actually use every day.
✅ Faster Meal Transitions
With a microwave wall oven combo you can make weeknight cooking easier because it lets you shift between tasks without waiting for equipment to free up. You can warm side dishes in the microwave while the main dish finishes in the oven, so dinner is on schedule. A oven and microwave combo reduces those frustrating pauses that slow down meal prep.
✅ Consistent Cooking Height
Both appliances sit at an ergonomic height that minimizes bending and reaching. Pulling a roast out at waist or chest level feels safer and supports better control, especially for heavier cookware. This layout is especially helpful for people who prefer thoughtful, accessible kitchen design.
✅ A Cohesive, High-End Look
Matching finishes, aligned handles, and a shared control layout give your cabinetry a polished appearance. A combo wall oven microwave creates a single visual unit to give you cleaner lines than buying two separate appliances that may not match perfectly in style or proportion.
✅ More Features Packed Into One Cabinet
Manufacturers sometimes equip these units with higher-end features because shoppers investing in a combined appliance expect strong performance. You’ll find convection baking, precision temperature management, steam options, and advanced microwave settings designed to speed up reheating without sacrificing food texture. All of this arrives in a single footprint, so you get more capability without expanding your kitchen layout.

Wall Oven Microwave Combo FAQs
When you install a wall oven microwave combo, start by measuring the cabinet opening to ensure it matches the appliance’s cutout requirements, including height, width, depth, and electrical placement. A licensed electrician should confirm that the circuit meets the unit’s voltage and amperage needs before the appliance is secured into the cabinet with the manufacturer’s mounting hardware. Once in place, the installer levels the frame, connects the wiring, and tests both the oven and microwave to confirm proper heating and ventilation.
The best microwave wall oven combo available right now is the Thermador Professional 30″ model (PODMC301W). It stands out because its built-in Speed Oven combines convection baking, broiling, and microwaving. Another standout feature is its precision cooking tools, including a multi-point meat probe that ensures roasts and poultry cook evenly.
To measure a wall oven microwave combo, check the height, width, and depth of your cabinet opening and compare them to the appliance’s required cutout dimensions. You’ll also need to measure the distance to the nearest electrical connection to ensure the wiring lines up with the unit’s junction box. Before buying, confirm that the cabinet has enough clearance for ventilation so the appliance can run safely and efficiently.
