They may look relatively compact, but their electrical input requirements can be substantial. A microwave advertised as having 1,000 watts of cooking power may consume considerably more electrical power from the outlet because the conversion process is not perfectly efficient.
Depending on the model, the actual electrical input may be around 1,400 to 1,600 watts or more.
This distinction is important. People sometimes look only at the cooking wattage printed on a microwave and assume that the appliance requires less electricity than it actually does.
