d a Frigidaire microwave that lasted 15 years of hard use. So I was not going to purchase My last Frigidaire Microwave was 15 years old. I was not going to buy anything different. However, after much research, I selected the new Frigidaire 1.5cu ft over-the-range microwave with a convection oven mode. It is 1450 watts which exceed my expectations, cooks evenly, and uses metal pans when in the convection process. Just love it. I am still learning about convection but have used it to make meatloaf, cakes, brownies, and casseroles. I am geeked over this new microwave. It is beautiful...
