This microwave cooks well, but tries to be too many appliances in one. I will not use the convection oven feature, as that is easier to use in my range. There is a limitation in the seconds you can set -- no fewer than 15 seconds. This is limiting if yo want, perhaps, to melt or soften butter, and only need 8 to 10 seconds. I find that annoying. The controls are not easy to use, but I will get used to that.
