Please note some microwave cooking functions require input power far greater than 700w, some functions such as "roast crisping" (rare addition) require a 5000 watt inverter 7 or 8 times the specified power input of the microwave model and other functions require up to twice the wattage of the microwave model.

Always run a plug-in power consumption reading Meter between your appliance and the mains wall socket to detect the highest current draw used per function before you decide what size inverter to buy.
Do not forget to set to top power level.for testing!

(720w solar(will be 920w at least sometime with a 60a LCD solar controller - need to know
the panel operation and wattage is correct for debug safety!) -and- 700w-wind(rated)) 4 x 40ah batteries in parallel supplying current to the inverter. The initial idea is to cook a weeks worth food using grill plate and accessory hot plate one after the other at 1000-1500w size during good sunlight conditions and place it in the fridge after its cooled. That way the microwave can be used to reheat at high current draw for very short periods alike the cup of coffee here whether the generating conditions are good or after dark.Other short periods of heavy operation such as 3-4 minutes are boiling a 1400w hot water jug.
