All You Need to Know About the Evolution of Microwave Ovens

Today, You and I, probably cannot live without a microwave oven in our house. The evolution journey of microwaves has been truly interesting. Let’s have a look at how it all really started and what’s the way forward.

How It All Started

The microwave was first invented in 1945, by an engineer, Percy Spencer. He started experiments and used the radar to pop popcorns and cook an egg.

The first microwave oven was released in 1945 to the public and was then known as a Radarange.

It stood more than 5 feet off the ground, weighed 750 pounds, cost more than $5,000 and used 3 kilowatts of power, almost three times as much as the typical household microwave uses today.

The Microwaves Oven of Today

It was twenty years before an affordable and economical microwave oven became available for sale.

By 1980 Microwaves were efficient, practical and viable for household use.

Microwaves have since evolved and become multi-purpose electronic devices with various functions.

The Future of Cooking

The future of microwave ovens is the inverter technology that modulates the level of energy being transmitted by the oven to achieve a consistent level. This means that microwave can be a real substitute to a gas stove for cooking purposes.

Pakistani brands like Dawlance are working on this and hope to soon introduce invertor microwaves that are smarter appliances.

Dawlance is also currently working on adding a separate sterilization feature to enhance this newly explored usage of a microwave oven.
