Or buy commercial-grade Japanese products. Regular size, but also efficient and effective. For instance, I just got rid of my kettle for a Zojirushi water-boiler. Hot water on demand, five minutes faster, with a similar countertop profile as a kettle.

But a microwave is not very efficient. It draws too much power for the amount it heats.
