Using some of the features of a microwave can be tricky for those with issues like arthritis, which is why the Emerson MWG9115SB is such a popular choice among those with this affliction. This device offers dual cooking options, thanks to the addition of the grilling function. This allows you to make some crispy treats, with no complicated controls to deal with. There are 1.2 cubic feet of space, which allows users with aching hands to freely maneuver plates inside the device.

This Emerson microwave isn’t the only model with a grilling option. The Samsung Electronics MG11H2020CT also allows for dual cooking, thanks to the included grilling element. Yet we must admit that Emerson is a more powerful option that needs more control over the cooking process. Though the Emerson MWG9115SB doesn’t have such extras, we liked that it’s a less expensive option with a simpler design and a slightly larger capacity. It also has a more stylish look than the Samsung model, so it fits nicely into any kitchen, no matter the décor.
