I have a fancy GE Microwave, its a built in, over the stove job, that is also a convection oven (a lousy one perhaps), but when used in hybrid convection cook mode, its pretty spiffy.
The boyfriend does not like using it with the moisture sensor active (he strongly likes to cover his food with a lid, to prevent splatter), but I find just a paper towel is good enough for me - and when left to its normal pre-programmed modes it works surprisingly well when I just let the intelligence the engineers at GE programmed into it at the factory do its thing.
I am also the least likely person in our household to actually use one, I have a perfectly good stove and oven, and I'm much more likely to warm my leftovers with that. Then it doesn't come out being uneven in temp, with a weird rubbery texture, or devoid of moisture.
Of course - it cost 600 dollars - as the saying goes, you get what you pay for.
The wife and boyfriend however? the microwave was for them.
- spoonjim 3y agoYou have a wife and a boyfriend?
- __turbobrew__ 3y agoIt’s the wife’s boyfriend
- Aloha 3y agoYes. I'd never expected to be in a poly thing, but it works for us.
- spoonjim 3y agoLol
- esafak 3y agoI have one too. The only problem is that you have to change the tray depending on what mode you want to use.
- Aloha 3y agoI think we've used the convection microwave part exactly once. Mostly we just use it as a microwave.
- chongli 3y agoYou can avoid splatter and get much better results by just turning down the power level. I now rarely use the microwave above 60%!
- Aloha 3y agoThe sensor cook modes actually do that, they run a test cycle on low, then dial up the heat for the last bit. It works great. Convincing the boyfriend of that, is harder.
