Built-In Microwave Drawer by Sharp
When you hear the brand name Sharp, you probably think first of HD televisions and office equipment. Well surprisingly, they are also in the business of making commercial and residential microwave ovens. One series of their microwave ovens are drawer style ones where the door and tray come straight out. Traditional microwaves have a hinged door which means one side is less accessible than the other because of the door swing. This microwave drawer design can be easier to use and wheelchair accessible.
Accessible Features
The opening of this microwave can be done in two ways. With the push of a button or with a slight tug on the handle with the Easy Open Function. This way opening can be more easily for people with limited hand and arm use. With the tray fully out, placing items onto it can be done without reaching in the microwave. Of course with the microwave being built-in, height can be installed wherever is most accessible for the user.
Conclusion
The microwaves come in 24″ and 30″ wide sizes. Finishes available are black, white, and stainless steel. Some of the models also do not have the Easy Open function. All around though, this is an excellent microwave option for an accessible kitchen. Watch the videos below to see the microwave drawer in action. For more information visit this Sharp website.
