The 5 Best Wall Oven Microwave Combo Sets

Convenience and efficiency are key ingredients when searching for the perfect wall oven microwave combo set. Understandably, you are looking for an oven combination that heats up your food quickly without burning it or undercooking it. Convection ovens are known for their circulation fans that circulate the heat so that your food is evenly cooked.

There are different types of convection ovens available. In the European Convection model there is a single heating element behind the fan that distributes the heat throughout the oven. Standard convection ovens circulate the heat from the heating elements in the oven. Twin or dual convection ovens have two fans that circulate the heated air from the heating elements.

Four of the five best oven microwave combo sets utilize the European Convection model for their oven microwave sets. The other one from Whirlpool utilizes a customized AccuBake temperature management system. There are certain criteria that oven microwave combo sets should have that are desired by cooks and bakers. These are:

• Consistent heating elements and even temperature settings with both ovens
• Easy or self-cleaning options
• Quick heating and the ability to keep food warm
• Easy to fit into existing wall cabinet cutout
