Ariete Vintage Microwave Oven 20 L 800 W Green

The Ariete Vintage 20 L microwave in green is a countertop appliance designed for basic kitchen tasks. It has a 20-litre capacity, fitting into compact spaces and accommodating standard dinner plates. The microwave operates with an 800 W power output, which is sufficient for routine reheating and cooking. Various settings allow for adjustments based on the food type or task, though the model lacks integrated grilling or convection capabilities. The appliance requires a connected load of 1280 W.

Manual dials control the settings and cooking duration, and an integrated mechanical timer manages the cooking cycle. The door pulls open to provide access to the interior, where a rotating glass turntable helps ensure consistent heat distribution. The model has a simple analogue interface rather than a digital display. Finished in green, the unit measures 260 mm high and 350 mm wide and is designed to sit on a flat kitchen worktop.
