[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very fancy oven with wonderful features. It's very convenient for my family, the use of microwave oven is useful and can barely cook everything within a few minutes. Perfect fir for my Chef's kitchen. Everyone that visits my house are asking me details about it and would love to have one It is well worth the price.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Disappointed with convection oven cooking capability

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am less than thrilled with the convection oven after two months. The temperature readings on the unit are way off from actual oven temperature. The oven will indicate that it has preheated and reading a temperature of 325, but according to an oven thermometer temperature only 250. Problem is that you have to preset your cook time and have to put your food in the oven immediately after unit says preheat complete or the unit will turn off. So, when you put your food in and cook according to your recipe, the food isn't cooked thoroughly after the recommended times. I have had the unit serviced and they replaced thermostat, controller, all parts associated with convection oven. Still doesn't heat any better, nor cook the food appropriately. Significant temperature differences still exist between what the oven says the temperature is at and an oven thermometer, but more importantly food still not cooking properly. Technician has no solution, since all parts have been replaced. So, if you are considering this unit for the convection oven as a second oven, you may want to consider a different brand. If you are not planning to use the convection oven often, this is a very expensive microwave to reheat food. Other comments on properly functioning features: Unit is loud when operating compared to other microwaves and definitely when operating in convection oven mode. One has to turn up the sound of the TV in the adjacent room to counter the loudness of the fan. Crisper feature is nice and seems to work well. Microwave steamer feature works well and is convenient.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Buying Another One!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We are renovating another home and will install this microwave/convection oven. It's been almost 10 years since we installed this microwave/convection unit at our primary residence. We used it to replace a double oven and a microwave to save space. Over the years, we told everyone about this appliance! We find that we use it a lot as a convection oven. It is the perfect size for cooking a one pan meal for a family of 4 or for 2. Heats up fast (saving energy) and cooks perfectly. We have grown to love the crisper feature as well. Another friend who owns one raves about the steamer function and has gotten rid of her counter top steamer. This unit really does it all for us! We are highly pleased with the original unit we purchase and remain pleased that the product still exists for us to purchase for our 2nd home.

I Love it! Easy to use Pleasure to Cook

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have really enjoyed the steam feature, it cooks salmon, shrimp and fresh veggies to perfection. I made the best cheese toast in the Convection Oven, and the crisping pan delivers tasty hamburgers. It's easy to use and it does a wonderful job defrosting food. The only thing I would change about it is the handle, but that is just cosmetic. The Microwave and Convection Oven Work Great and make it a pleasure to cook.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So my wife was not sure of the built-in microwave idea. However she loves it! We did an undercounted mount and have been nothing but impressed with the performance of this unit! Easy to use and works great!

Exceeds expectations

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve owned this unit for about a month now and have really enjoyed it. The convection feature is something I never knew I would want in a microwave, but I’ve found myself doing the majority of my simple baking in this product. I would recommend this product to anyone trying to save counter space by eliminating toaster ovens.

wonderful microwave
on May 16, 2019

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We remodeled our kitchen this spring and went with all KitchenAid appliances. I probably wouldn't have selected a KitchenAid microwave if not for this, but I am so happy I did. This is a wonderful microwave- would only add that we'd like back lighting on the control panel so it could be seen in the dark.
