We bought this for the convection cooking features which we thought seemed really cool. Did not realize the microwave part was only 900 watt (our fault for not checking) so when using the microwave only it definitely is a little slow. R tried using the convection cooking to bake some cookies but it didn't really work. They cooked unevenly and were fully browned on top but still raw on the bottom. I am still going to try something like rolls, hopefully that works as making rolls while cooking in the oven was a big selling point.
