An inverter microwave is a type of microwave oven that uses inverter technology to provide a controlled and efficient power supply operating continuously at the same power to avoid overheating, loss of flavor, and destroying food structure. In a conventional microwave, a transformer turns the power on and off, which gives the food a chance to distribute heat. In contrast, in an inverter microwave, power is supplied through an inverter circuit to supply a steady and constant amount of power throughout the cooking time without cutting in and out. This results in faster and more even cooking, making it ideal for those who regularly use their microwave for defrosting. Inverter microwaves also offer additional power levels and more energy-efficient cooking time. While there are some minor benefits to using an inverter microwave, they may not be worth the extra cost for everyone.
