GE JE1590WH Profile Countertop Microwave

2 in one oven

Strengths: Microwave & Convection oven in one, cooks fast on combo mode

Weaknesses: none so far

Summary: This oven can be used to cook as a microwave or convection or combination of both to speed up cook time. The best feature it has is you can set two separate cook time/power level for an item. Instead of cooking item for Xmins at full power and then setting it after for Xmins 50% power, you set it once and it will do for you. You can use it on the counter or slide it in a built in cabinet like I did, but you will need a trim/sheet metal kit which cost $130. This oven is a little expensive but it's like getting 2 ovens in one.

Excellent Microwave

Strengths: convection, accurate sensor

Weaknesses: dial instead of touchpad for entering time may bother some individuals

Summary: I purchased this microwave a few months ago and it is one of my favorite appliances!

We have not yet used the combo mode, but both microwave and convection separately have worked very well. I was suprised by how well cookies came out. There is plenty of room for large dishes, but of course this takes up quite a bit of counter space.

It seems the sensor always goes for longer than I would have put the food in for myself, yet it has gotten it right every time so far.

I thought it would be annoying that there is a dial for time and other setting inputs rather than a keypad and the dial works in increments of 15 seconds (you cannot set it to work for 10 seconds, 25 seconds, etc). As it turns out, however, this hasn't bothered me at all. And for extremely short cook times you could always stand by the microwave and stop it at the desired time.
