What size is the Studio Microwave?

[zulaya]

Ok, I know this may seem like a dumb question, but I need to know if the microwaves in the studios are the larger ones (like in the full kitchens or like most of us probably have at home) or if it's a small one.

I have this "Magic Pot" that I use to make dinners in the microwave and I'm thinking about getting an extra and leaving it in my OL. But it won't fit in the small microwaves.

Right now, we usually stay in a 1BR or larger, but I may take a solo trip later this year and if so, it would be oh, so convenient to have my Magic Pot to make some of my 20 minute dinners.

And it's just been too long since I was in a studio to remember what size the microwave is.

Anyone care to venture an opinion?

Thanks!

Maybe Anal Annie can chime in as well, but from what I recall the microwaves are regular size, as well as regular size toasters. Annie stays in studios alot so she so may be more confident than me. I've never stayed in a 1BR yet, but only been in a studio a handful of times, and only at OKW. (We stayed at the boardwalk one night, but honestly didn't pay any attention to the microwaves.) I never recall it being a small microwave. It's mounted above the counter so I hope this helps! We used ours alot last trip, so I'm 99.9% confident it's a big one.

Here's the one in the AKV studios-

I thought this one was smaller than the ones in BCV, OKW, BWV, or BWV.

OK, that looks really small. My Deep Covered Baker that I use to roast meats for sandwiches, make chicken penne, etc in the microwave is 12.5" long x 9.5" wide x 5.5" deep.

I know it's hard to see from a picture, but it just looks like it would be a squeeze to get in there but it wouldn't rotate.

Any other opinions?

when I tried to heat up a frozen mac and cheese dinner in micro at OKW, it cut off after about 3 minutes---too much steam from cooking. I had to wait 10 minute for it to work again. It was not a full size one--definitely smaller. IT worked fine for heating up canned soup, etc.

Thanks for the tip.
