Midea Wave Range: The Future of Cooking
At the prestigious IFA 2025 exhibition in Berlin,
Midea, a top player in the smart home market, unveiled its latest culinary innovation: the
Midea Wave Range. This appliance, recognized as Europe’s first multi-functional 3-in-1 free-standing oven, aims to redefine the cooking experience in compact urban kitchens.
A New Era for Kitchen Appliances
The Wave Range stands out by integrating microwave technology into its design, presenting users with versatility, efficiency, and a space-saving solution. As consumers increasingly seek dual-purpose appliances, Midea’s research revealed that over half of European kitchens are under 15 square meters, making space a premium commodity. With the ever-growing trend towards multi-functional appliances, the Wave Range emerges as a compelling answer to modern cooking needs.
Research-Driven Design
Midea’s development of the Wave Range was heavily based on a comprehensive research initiative, spanning major cities like
London,
Frankfurt,
Paris, and
Milan. This encompassed 23 in-depth home interviews and the analysis of 1,626 validated online questionnaires over 60 days. The insights indicated that engagements with kitchens often lead to a demand for multifunctionality that supports both quick meals and elaborate family dinners. This feedback informed the design process, leading to an effective and thoughtful solution.
A Comprehensive Cooking Solution
The Wave Range ingeniously combines three essential cooking functionalities into one unit:
- - A top induction hob for varied cooking methods.
- - An upper compact oven that features microwave, grill, air fryer, and toaster functions.
- - A large lower oven equipped with advanced graphene heating tubes, known for their efficiency and high-temperature resilience.
This design allows users to prepare simple, quick meals while multitasking by cooking larger dishes in the lower oven — a true game changer in busy family kitchens.
Optimized Cooking Technology
With its
WaveFry technology, the upper oven delivers crispy results without the need for constant flipping. The microwave function, capable of producing 800W (with a power input of 1500W), allows for quick heating, which significantly cuts down traditional cooking times by up to 38%. On the other hand, the lower oven’s graphene heating tubes ensure rapid, energy-efficient heating and uniform cooking results, whether one is baking, roasting, or crafting detailed recipes.
Designed for Modern Living
Every compartment within the Wave Range operates independently, facilitating the simultaneous cooking of various dishes, thus catering to diverse family preferences. The induction zones enhance flexibility, allowing for larger pans and improved heat configurations. This focus on usability not only streamlines cooking processes but also keeps countertops clean and orderly.
Inspiring Culinary Experiences
By drawing aesthetic and functional inspiration from European urban architecture and the principles of ergonomic design, Midea has produced an appliance that promises to improve the daily routines of families. The Wave Range is not just an oven; it is a culinary partner that enables families to enjoy quality meals, be it for everyday dining, family gatherings, or special occasions.
