What are the top over the counter convection microwave ovens?

I don't quite understand your question. My interior is stainless steel, the outside is white enamel. Mine is built in BUT has more clearance the their manual calls for. I have had no trouble with mine, I use it everyday to cook 99% of our meals & breads. I bake bread every week. Please explain what you mean by TOP OVER THE COUNTER. I can then answer you better,

Yes, they are two totally separate functions. You must tell it you are using convection oven cooking instead of the default microwave cooking. My daughter uses the convection oven to cook her gluten free pizza instead of heating up our large oven and waiting for it to come up to heat. We love both functions but if you wish to use it for convection only cooking, you may do so. :-)

Convection gets you browning that you just can't get with a non-convection oven. I work in a bakery and it's frustrating trying to duplicate some of the things we make there when I bake at home. I now have a TOB-195 convection toaster oven, and it's a big help. Things like roasted chicken, fruit crisps, and even cookies take on a different, often superior quality from the convection aspect of the baking. It takes some getting used to, but you can get results that are impossible (or at least much more difficult) with a non-convection oven. I'm thinking about replacing my other Cuisinart with this one because of the brick and rotisserie features. With a high end toaster oven like my the one I have or this, I only turn on my regular oven to make a big pan of muffins or a cake bigger than 9".

You have the option to choose either 100% convection or combine it with microwave cooking.

I have a convection oven by Dacor and a cooktop by Dacor - love them both. The Miele Dishwash is just great and the tabs make a huge difference.

Hi R.L., This unit is a very good microwave oven, but does not have the convection feature [we have a 2nd microwave, from Dacor, that has this feature. The convection feature would be labeled on the operation panel if it was built in to this unit; I did extensive research on this Panasonic before my purchase to verify that it was not a convection oven]. As far as using anything with aluminum, the owners manual states that you may only use small strips of foil to mold around thin parts of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking, with a chance for arcing if the foil is too close to the oven wall. Using this info, I would have to say no to your question about using a 9x13 disposable pan. Hope this helps.

Select the operation you want (bake, broil, cookies, etc., not toast), then select desired temperature with up/down arrows, then select the amount of time with the up/down arrows and push convection button. This works for me.

I wouldn't do that, this unit is to heavy for that. Appliance stores sell a microwave that does go over the oven, but you're talking over $500.00.We purchased a corner cabinet that this microwave fits into, and by doing this we got a nice looking cabinet with above and below storage. Hope this helped.

I suggest going to the General Electric site on the internet. As I recall this microwave is not recommended for installation over a stove top.

Hello: the inverter technology is not convection. I had to do some research to find out what it was, and it is a certain way the microwaves are emitted--this microwave is great for even cooking, and defrosting. I am very happy with it. I debated the convection/microwave but decided that I really wouldn't use it that much and opted for just the microwave. I am very satisfied with this model. JB

I believe there's a conversion kit you'd have to purchase, unless it is the exact configuration of the one you're replacing. This is the only microwave/convection that toasts and broils and bakes conventionally. I LOVE it.

I cooked for many years in an older model sharp convection oven. I found anything I could cook in an oven I could cook in a convection microwave ie hams, baked Mac n cheese, sweet potato pie....I used Corelle casserole pots and non stick baking pans. I believe I cooked at 25 degrees less than recommended temps for black nonstick pans (just like a regular oven). I really enjoyed having the convection microwave during the hollidays. While the turkey was cooking in the regular oven, I could cook everything else in my convection oven! Enjoy:)

I only have a microwave. I am not sure about the convection fan.I think I would experiment with a baked potatoe for the convectionand see how it goes.

Are there any countertop convection ovens out there that do fit a 9" x 13" pan? Can't seem to find any!

I have a booklet that came with mine. IT tell you how long to cook a roast by lb weight, or a frozen pizza. I guess you could go to a book store and buy a convection cook book. I am pretty sure sears has a booklet with the oven. So don't worry about that. Kenmore Elite is a very good name brand, i bought one made from China and it did not last a year. I have had mine for many year. I love it.

This little oven is the best and you don't need the manual. Plug it in, look at the dials, decide what you want to (toast, convection, regular) and set the temperature dial as appropriate. You need to have the temperature set at 450 to toast. You need to set the timer at more than 10 minutes for convection. The convection function works great for reheating pizza, cooking broccoli florets and probably other things too. Good luck!

This unit is way to heavy for that. They make microwaves that are made to fit over the oven. A microwave that goes over the oven is around $500.00. We bought a built in to put in the corner and we have this microwave there, plus the built in gives you plenty of storage above and below the microwave.
