I had an old VanTiem very similar to this, except this one has an air fryer. We never use the advantage of cooking. I’m looking forward to using the air fryer. I don’t relish the touch pads. I noticed this unit I can’t use the timer with when the unit is on, but I do like the interior light and the ability to stop the term table.
It it seems to work well. Attest going through two Advantiums in twenty years, we had to find something cheaper. This oven as almost a third the cost with most of the features. The only thing it’s missing is the halogen light for toasting or browning. It does a good job on chicken, which comes out with a crispy skin due to the convection feature. Also, that it does air frying is good too.
This microwave has many features that I am enjoying. With the convention feature I was able to cook breakfast in this smaller appliance keeping my kitchen cooler. I use it daily and find I can do almost has much as in my GE kitchen range. I like knowing that it has a steam clean function but I have not had cause to use it yet. The inside wipes clean so easily with just a wet dish cloth. So far I am impressed and happy that I choose this microwave.
