Midea Equipment 2134G1A Stainless Steel Stackable Commercial Microwave Oven

Overview

Midea rates the 2134G1A at 2100 watts, a stackable commercial microwave with a 1.2 cu ft cavity sized for a 12 inch platter and a USB port for syncing menus across locations.

The USB port for syncing programmed menus across multiple units is the feature aimed squarely at multi-location food service, not home kitchens. That said, the dual magnetron, no-turntable heating approach impressed at least one home reviewer enough to call it better than pricier consumer microwaves loaded with screens and smart features instead of raw cooking power.

• 2100 watts, dual magnetron, top and bottom energy feed
• 1.2 cu ft cavity fits a 12 inch platter
• USB port for menu programming across locations
• Stackable, removable splatter shield and air intake filter

Who it's for

Food service operations running a stackable, programmable commercial microwave across multiple stations are the intended buyer, though at least one home cook found it worth the switch from consumer models.

Performance notes

Dual magnetrons feed energy from the top and bottom of the cavity through rotating antennas rather than a turntable, distributing heat across the full 12 inch platter space. Up to 100 auto-cook items can be programmed with cook times up to 60 minutes each, and the USB port lets that menu be duplicated across units at multiple locations rather than reprogrammed by hand each time. One long-time microwave owner said this cooked food noticeably better than expensive home models loaded with screens and smart features.
