Ventilation - Clearing the Air

This over-the-range microwave excels at removing cooking byproducts thanks to its powerful 2-speed ventilation system. With an airflow of 300 CFM (cubic feet per minute), it effectively eliminates smoke, steam, and odors, ensuring a healthier and more pleasant cooking experience.

How does it work?

Ventilation systems utilize a fan to draw air through a filter, capturing grease and other particles before expelling the purified air outside. This is crucial for maintaining optimal air quality, especially in compact kitchens or when preparing foods with strong aromas. The TOR24SS offers the flexibility of either venting to the outside or recirculating the filtered air back into the kitchen.

Power Modes - Cooking with Precision

The TOR24SS provides unparalleled control over your cooking with 11 distinct power modes. This allows you to fine-tune the cooking process, whether you’re delicately melting chocolate at a low setting or rapidly defrosting meat at a higher power level.

The Science Behind It:

Microwaves cook food by generating electromagnetic waves that cause water molecules within the food to vibrate, producing heat. Different power levels correspond to varying intensities of these microwaves, allowing you to adjust the cooking speed and intensity. This precision ensures optimal results for a wide range of culinary tasks.

Spacious Capacity - Room for More

Featuring a generous 1.4 cu. ft. capacity and a 12.8 in. turntable, the TOR24SS accommodates large dishes and family-sized meals with ease. The rotating turntable ensures even cooking by exposing all parts of the food to the microwaves, preventing hot spots and ensuring consistent heating.

Presets and Convenience - Simplifying Your Cooking

This microwave is designed with convenience in mind, offering sensor cook menus and a reheat function that take the guesswork out of cooking. Sensor cooking utilizes humidity sensors to detect when food is cooked, automatically adjusting the cooking time for perfect results. Quick-touch buttons provide preset cooking times from 30 seconds to 6 minutes, and a +30 second button allows for easy adjustments on the fly.

Grease Filter - Maintaining a Clean Kitchen

Equipped with an advanced grease filter, the THOR Kitchen TOR24SS efficiently captures and removes grease particles produced during cooking. This not only helps maintain a cleaner kitchen but also prolongs the life of the microwave by preventing grease buildup. Regular cleaning of the filter is recommended for optimal performance.

Control Lock - Child Safety

For households with young children, the control lock feature provides added safety and peace of mind. This prevents accidental operation of the microwave, guarding against unintended use and potential hazards.

LED Cooktop Lighting - Illuminating Your Culinary Creations

The TOR24SS features bright LED cooktop lighting, providing excellent illumination of your cooking surface below. This enhances visibility and makes it easier to monitor your culinary creations while they simmer or sizzle on the stovetop.

Easy-to-Read Digital Display - Clear and Intuitive Control

Navigating the microwave’s functions is a breeze thanks to the clear and intuitive digital display. It provides at-a-glance information on cooking time, power level, and selected functions, ensuring effortless operation.
