Tigris, I cannot find the larger ones than 3.5 on that E channel


They had the 5qt Cook's Companion as a TTV and it must have sold out completely.  Rest assured, it will be back.

 

I have been wanting to replace my 17 year old microwave with a newer one with more features and take my old one to work.  I have been looking for over a year as to what I want.  I opted for a Daewoo Convection Microwavehttp://www.walmart.com/ip/23878474?ref=myacct  

Daewoo 1.0 cu ft Convection Oven, Stainless Steel

It is $96.

Daewoo 1.0 cu ft Convection Oven, Stainless Steel:

  • Five auto-cook menus
  • Easy-to-use electronic dial control
  • Microwave/Grill/Convection
  • Quick pizza function
  • Convenient steam clean function
  • Child safety lock
  • Automatic cooking function
  • 900W
  • 1.0-cu-ft capacity
  • One-year parts and labor warranty
  • Dimensions: 15.8"L x 20.2"W x 12.2"H
  • Model# KOC-9Q4DS

I want to try to do the air frying in it with the convection feature by "kissing" the food with oil and setting it to cook using the convection feature.  I have a regular electric range and a toaster oven.  I felt the addition of this microwave would do the same as the "air fryers".  I shall report back.  I prefer my appliances to do more than one thing, which the "air fryers" don't, but it would be excellent for that fried taste without the fat and oiliness in the air.
