Why use a microwave cart? That sounds like a really stupid invention, doesn't it? Why purchase a microwave and an entirely new piece of furniture?
Although they are convenient appliances for the home, the microwave can be extremely difficult to carry, which is why many people purchase what would otherwise be considered a stupid invention. Of course, once the microwave is inside the home, there will be few times that it will need to be moved. One of the things that can make this task easier is a microwave cart. The microwave cart is designed to allow you to easily roll the microwave around without having to do a lot of lifting or straining of the back.
It might sound preposterous to use a cart to carry a microwave. You’re strong, right? Of course you are. With some models of microwave, however, it is not a matter of how heavy it is, but the shape of it that makes it hard to carry. Take, for instance, GE's Stainless Steel 1200 Watt microwave. This model is so heavy and unwieldy that you are more or less guaranteed to drop it if you have to carry it more than once. Why not get a cart instead? This is what many people do when they remodel a kitchen, but you don't have to wait until then. You can get a microwave cart and use it to move your microwave into a better position while you are cooking.
A microwave cart can also be used to carry models of microwaves that are definitely too heavy to carry. It is especially important to use a microwave cart for these microwaves. Negative damage to your physical health can occur by lifting and carrying a microwave that is too heavy. Even if the damage is not long lasting, an achy back, legs, or arms, for even just one day is one day too many. You can use a cart to avoid the kind of damage that is received from carrying a heavy microwave.
If you're planning to purchase a heavy microwave in the future, you should consider purchasing an O'Sullivan or a Quebeko cart to go along with it. If you're tight on money, you can always purchase a refurbished one from the classified ads for under $25.
