These New SMEG Microwaves Come in Two Models
Michael Hemsworth — February 26, 2026 — Art & Design
These new SMEG Microwaves have been launched by the brand in two models to help expedite cooking and maximize the capabilities of amateur or advanced chefs in the kitchen.
The microwaves include the MOC01 and the MOC02, which are priced starting at £349.95 and incorporate a number of cooking programs, while also offering large capacities. The appliances are also paired with accessories that will see the MOC01 working as a microwave and a grill, while the MOC02 will work as a microwave, grill, oven and even an air fryer to eliminate the need for separate solutions.
The new SMEG Microwaves come as part of the shift towards multifunction appliances for the kitchen as consumers seek to save space without losing out on functionality.

Industry Implications
1. Home Appliance Manufacturing - Manufacturers face demand for engineering compact, multifunction systems that integrate novel heating methods and smart controls in a single package.
