The Menumaster DEC18E2 is the 1800W professional microwave of the DEC range — the power that the majority of professional kitchens use daily to reheat cooked dishes, sauces, soups and service components. It is not a surface-finishing tool (that is the role of the Jetware and MRX speed ovens), nor an extreme-power unit (that is the 2100W DEC21E2) — it is the everyday workhorse, with digital programmable controls for consistent results. At €2,250 excl. VAT.
The Everyday 1800W Workhorse
- 1800W — the power most professional kitchens use daily, fast enough for the pass
- Digital programmable controls — presets give the same result from any staff member
- Same DEC platform — between the 1400W entry and the 2100W high-power model
- Single-phase 230V — standard socket, no three-phase
Who Is the DEC18E2 For?
- The everyday professional kitchen — reheating plated dishes, sauces and soups at the pass
- Teams wanting programmable consistency — presets for repeatable results across staff
- Moderate-to-high reheat volume — the most common professional power level

Commercial-Grade, Not Domestic
A professional microwave is built to a different standard than a domestic one. Where a household microwave fails within months under commercial load, a Menumaster professional microwave is engineered for 5 to 8 years of daily intensive use — reheating plated dishes, sauces, soups and service components, cycle after cycle, through every service. The commercial cavity, door and magnetron are dimensioned for the duty, which is exactly why professional kitchens do not run domestic microwaves on the line.
Mechanical, Touch or Digital Controls
Controls are a real choice. Mechanical dials are the most robust, work with gloved or wet hands and never fail electronically — the simplest, most durable option. Touch (touch-sensitive) controls sit on a flat surface that wipes clean in one pass, ideal for hygiene. Digital controls add programmable presets, so any staff member gets the same result without judging the time — consistency at the press of a labelled key. Choose by your kitchen's workflow and team.
Power and Throughput
Higher wattage means faster reheating, which means more covers served per minute at the pass. Match the power to your reheat volume: a light secondary post needs little, while a high-throughput service at peak needs the higher-wattage models. Oversizing wastes budget; undersizing slows the pass — size the microwave to the reheats per service you actually run.
Stainless Steel, Cleaning and HACCP
The microwave is built in stainless steel and runs on single-phase 230V (standard socket) — no three-phase installation. The cavity wipes clean between services and the unit slots into your HACCP cleaning routine. Reheating to a controlled core temperature keeps the food within the safe ranges your HACCP plan requires.
