Is convection microwave as good as convection oven?

A convection microwave combines some of the features of two kitchen appliances – a microwave and a convection oven, allowing you to bake and roast foods in addition to heating them. Thanks to their versatility and small size, convection microwaves can be a good choice for small kitchens, apartments and RVs .

Convection microwaves combine conventional microwave technology with an extra heating element and fan , allowing you to bake, roast and crisp food along with general quick reheating. A convection microwave can double as another oven or even serve as the main oven in small spaces like RVs.

In contrast, convection oven technology uses a fan to force air movement and heat up the full interior of the microwave to cook food from the inside out. That’s why you can use convection microwaves to bake and roast things that would otherwise be cooked too quickly (and not thoroughly) with just a regular microwave .
