The Buffalo 1800W programmable commercial microwave is a stainless steel counter-top unit built for reheating, cooking and defrosting in commercial catering environments. The 34-litre cavity sits at the larger end of this class, giving operators enough room for full-size plated portions, catering bowls and larger containers without the restrictions of a smaller unit.

In a working kitchen, this type of unit earns its keep during service when speed and consistency matter most. The programmable controls allow staff to store commonly used time and power combinations, which reduces reliance on individual judgement and supports more consistent results across a shift. This is particularly useful in higher-turnover operations where multiple people are using the same machine throughout the day. The 1800W output delivers reasonably quick reheat cycles, and the straightforward interface keeps training time to a minimum.

Day-to-day operational advantages include:

  • Programmable presets reduce per-portion reheat times and the risk of operator error
  • Large cavity accommodates a wider range of containers and plated dishes
  • Stainless steel construction meets commercial hygiene requirements and cleans easily
  • Runs from a standard 13A socket with no dedicated circuit required
  • Compact counter-top footprint suits most pass or preparation areas

Installation is straightforward. The unit runs from a standard 13A supply, so there is no requirement for a dedicated electrical circuit or electrician sign-off beyond routine PAT testing. It is worth ensuring adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation and confirming that the counter surface can comfortably bear the 32.3kg weight. This is a free-standing counter-top unit and requires clear, accessible worktop space with a suitable socket nearby.

This microwave is well suited to cafés, pubs, small restaurants, staff canteens and similar operations that need dependable reheating capacity without the cost or footprint of a larger commercial unit. It handles moderate throughput comfortably across a typical service. For sites running near-continuous reheat cycles over extended service periods — such as large contract catering operations or high-cover restaurants — a higher-wattage or more heavy-duty unit may be worth considering.

If you would like to talk through whether this model fits your service volumes or how it sits alongside your existing equipment, the team is glad to help before you make a decision.

Frequently asked questions

Is this microwave suitable for a busy restaurant running continuous reheat cycles during service?

It handles moderate throughput well and suits operations such as pubs, cafés and smaller restaurants where the microwave is used regularly but not near-continuously. For high-cover sites running extended back-to-back cycles throughout a long service, it would be worth speaking to us about whether a higher-wattage or more heavy-duty unit would be a better fit.

What are the installation requirements for this unit?

The microwave runs from a standard 13A socket, so there is no need for a dedicated electrical circuit or specialist installation work beyond routine PAT testing. You will need a stable counter surface capable of supporting 32.3kg and enough clearance around the unit to allow adequate ventilation.

How do the programmable controls work in practice for a busy kitchen team?

Operators can store preset combinations of power level and time for the reheating tasks they perform most often, so staff select a programme rather than manually entering settings each time. This helps maintain consistent results across a shift and reduces the margin for error when multiple team members are using the machine.
