Re: Question about micowave convection oven with built in air fryer
Reply #1 –
Air fryer mode is basically convection oven mode. That's all an air fryer is - a small convection oven. Maybe the 3-way ones add an additional radiant element, but I think it's more likely that "3 way" means you can run microwave, convection oven, or combo (much like you can the Sharp).
Speed ovens like a GE Advantium also have a high output quartz radiant element that assists in browning. Trust me in saying it doesn't replace a toaster oven if you want to make toast or toast a bagel in a reasonable amount of time. I do like that the Advantium has a fixed rack capability that allows you to bake a 9x13 pan (sheet cake, lasagna, etc.) and would look for that feature in any model under consideration.
AFAIK, the Sharp models are the only ones with a common turntable material for bake vs. microwave. Nearly all the others require you to swap the turntable - glass for micro, metal for bake/speed. Sharp uses a high-heat ceramic composite (or at least used to)
