Why this microwave earns its place
The Buffalo FB863 is a manual commercial microwave oven with the same generous 34 litre capacity as the programmable model, but with straightforward manual controls instead. Its stainless steel body and 368 x 528 x 574 mm external size make it a solid, familiar fit for a working kitchen.
At 1800W, it is built to quickly cook, reheat and defrost food, and the manufacturer calls out that larger cavity as one of the biggest in its class. That makes it a practical choice where speed matters, but the team still wants simple operation rather than a more advanced control set.
Like the rest of the range, it runs from a plug connection and carries a 2 year parts and labour warranty. At 32.3 kg gross weight, it feels like proper commercial kit rather than a lightweight stopgap.
