- What does convection add over a regular microwave?
- Convection moves heated air around the cavity, so the oven can bake, roast and brown food. A plain microwave only heats with microwaves and leaves food soft and pale.
- Can it replace a full-size oven?
- For small batches of cookies, roasted vegetables or a whole chicken it can. It cannot match a full oven's capacity or browning consistency for large trays or multiple racks.
- How does the smart control work?
- You pair the oven with an app to set cooking modes and presets remotely. Basic cooking still works from the front panel without the app.
- Does it fit a standard countertop?
- It is a countertop unit at 1.5 cu ft, so measure your free counter depth and clearance above and around it before buying. Leave room for the vents.
- Is it worth choosing over a cheaper microwave?
- If you want baking and roasting from one countertop appliance, the convection and smart features justify it. If you only reheat and defrost, a simpler microwave does the same job.
