convection microwave

Hybrid kitchen appliance

A convection microwave combines standard microwave cooking with a convection oven's heated circulating air.

This allows both rapid microwave heating and conventional baking, roasting, or browning in a single appliance: The convection microwave can crisp a pizza crust in ways a regular microwave can't.

Also called a convection microwave oven.
