Microwave ovens are small appliances that can be used to cook simple meals in The Sims, The Sims 2, The Sims 3, and The Sims 4. The object can be found in buy mode under "Appliances -> Small appliances". In The Sims, they can be placed on end tables as well as on counters or surfaces that function as counters. In The Sims 2 and The Sims 3, they must be placed on counters or surfaces that function as counters. In The Sims 2 and The Sims 3, cooking skill points can be earned from using a microwave.
The Sims[edit | edit source]
In The Sims, a microwave oven can make quick meals or steak and beans like any other stove. A household can have a microwave oven and a full-scale stove, but if this is done, the player will have no control over which one the Sims use. Unlike stoves and the toaster oven, there is no risk of fire when cooking with a microwave.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- Due to the way objects work in The Sims, recolors of Maxis objects are separate objects. Therefore, recolors of the Maxis microwave oven may have prices and Hunger values that are different from the originals.
The Sims 2[edit | edit source]
In The Sims 2, a microwave oven can only prepare a TV dinner and a Cup o' Ramen[University], and the Cup o' Ramen can only be prepared in a microwave; both of these dishes are single-serving only, meaning that group meals cannot be prepared with a microwave. Sims can burn food that is being cooked in a microwave, though it will not catch on fire. If a household has a microwave and a full scale stove, clicking on the microwave and choosing to make a TV dinner does not ensure that the Sim will use the microwave. Microwaves may break like many other appliances. If FreeTime is installed, they can be tinkered with.
