GE Profile 1.5 Cu. Ft. Countertop Convection/Microwave Oven vs TOSHIBA 4-in-1, 1.5 cu. ft., Countertop Microwave Oven ML-EC42P(SS), Stainless Steel

Buy the Toshiba ML-EC42P if you want air frying, convection baking and sensor cooking for the lowest price: $258 at eBay as of November 3, 2026. Buy the GE Profile only if you need a built-in look with a trim kit or GE's WiFi and Scan to Cook features, because it costs $827 at The Home Depot as of November 3, 2026. Both are 1.5 cu. ft. and 1000 watts, so the GE's $569 premium buys fit and finish, not more cooking power.

Today the TOSHIBA 4-in-1, 1.5 cu. ft., Countertop Microwave Oven ML-EC42P(SS), Stainless Steel costs $569.00 less at its best price.
