Have had this Microwave / Oven for about a year now. It is amazing. All the standard microwave stuff is well done, but the best part is the Avantium features. It has made our regular oven almost obsolete. We use it to cook chicken, steak, bake potatos and more.
A baked chicken breast is better than the oven. Amazing.
Not only does it look modern and fun it has changed how I cook. I was going for a simPle basic model but this one was the perfect match for my cafe dual fuel range . So I bought it and no idea a microwave could do so much... My favorite feature is the preset recipies for speed cooking... Makes parties and get togethers appetizers simple and fast. I love the convection oven as well. It cleans up easily.
It takes a bit of getting used to. The shelf and a tray have to stored while it is in use The minimum microwave time of 15 seconds seems an unnecessary restriction. The extra power of the 240 volt version would be welcome on occasion. Otherwise it is excellent Sincerely Denys
I was hesitant about this product because of the price, but bought a floor sample for a good deal. I think it's overpriced, but it does work well. I haven't used the convection feature yet, and might never. But as a microwave it works really well.
Just renovated our kitchen and replaced our old GE Profile appliances with new GE Cafe appliances. Could not be more pleased with the look and performance of our new appliances!
I bought this oven a couple of weeks ago. We needed to replace our microwave...so we decided to upgrade to an Advantium oven. Wow! What a great product. It is more versatile than any other appliance...speeds up cooking, and easy to operate. Learned how to operate in just a few minutes. Great DVD!
