At a glance
The ASKO Craft Warming Drawer is a built-in solution for warming crockery and keeping food ready to serve, making it a strong fit for entertainers and households that plate multiple dishes at once. Its generous capacity, touch controls and handle-free push-to-open design are standout strengths. A limitation is that it focuses on warming and holding rather than offering advanced cooking programs or a larger drawer height.

Things to consider
This 14 cm warming drawer is excellent for warming, holding and gentle defrosting, but it does not offer the deeper cavity or more specialised cooking functions found in some larger or more advanced premium warming drawers.
Entertaining suitability
High - generous capacity for up to 20 dinner plates or about 80 coffee cups makes it well suited to hosting
Renovation compatibility
Excellent - built-in 14 cm format with a handle-free front suits modern cabinetry and integrated appliance layouts
Ease of use score
8/10 - touch controls and push-to-open access are simple to use, though manual settings are less automated than some advanced models
Multi-dish fit
Very good - ideal for warming multiple plates, cups and prepared dishes ahead of serving
Key benefits
- Large Plate Capacity: Warms up to 20 dinner plates, making it easier to serve several guests at once.
- Cup Warming Capacity: Holds about 80 coffee cups, which is useful when hosting larger gatherings or serving multiple rounds of drinks.
- 30 to 80 °C Temperature Range: Gives you flexible control for warming crockery, keeping food ready to serve, slow cooking or gentle defrosting.
- Push-to-Open Door: Creates a clean handle-free look and makes access simple in streamlined cabinetry.
- Touch Controls: Makes temperature selection straightforward for everyday use and entertaining prep.

Q: Can this warming drawer replace a microwave for reheating food?
A: No. ASKO ODW61BS1 heats gently between 30 and 80 degrees, so it is better for warming plates, holding cooked dishes and gentle defrosting. It is not designed for fast reheating, browning or crisping the way higher-heat appliances can.
Q: Will it fit under an oven or in an appliance stack?
A: Yes, in many built-in kitchen layouts. ASKO ODW61BS1 is 135mm high, 597mm wide and 524mm deep, which suits a slim built-in slot, but the cavity, electrical provision and surrounding cabinetry still need to be planned with your electrician.
Q: What size dishes fit best in the ASKO warming drawer?
A: ASKO ODW61BS1 holds up to 20 dinner plates when used for plate warming, or about 80 coffee cups when used for cups. Its low-profile format is better for plates, cups and flatter serving pieces than for tall casserole dishes or oversized bowls.
Q: Can it keep food warm without drying it out?
A: Yes. ASKO ODW61BS1 uses controlled low heat, so it suits holding plated meals or serving dishes before everyone is ready to eat. It is intended for warming and gentle defrosting rather than cooking food at oven-style temperatures.
