I love this oven/microwave!

I'm browsing Galanz ToastWave. Very fast (3 days) delivery by Revain. I must have bought it on sale or something because when I clicked the link to check it out the price was $200 more than what I paid for. When the giant box arrived the box had a few scuffs but the oven was in perfect condition thanks to the styrofoam packaging. I've noticed a few scratches on the control panel, but it has a clear, sticky protective layer on it. a spike that was hard to see. Just take it off and it's beautiful. He is big and beautiful. After putting away my old microwave and toaster I actually have more countertop space now, but I made a small (experimental) wooden extension to get it closer to the fridge through the gap between the countertop to give me to give more space. Room. The door hinges are on the left and the door is a good size. So if you mix things up on a small countertop and need to open the door, I had to move everything I had on the countertop just to open the door. .I've tried everything except touch modes (which I'm not familiar with yet) and everything works great. The controls are pretty easy to understand and I really like the functions of the watch face. I have never used the automatic settings of previous microwaves or ovens as I prefer to set the power, temperature and time myself. The automatic cake setting is fairly accurate in terms of time and temperature, but I prefer to set my own. You can easily fit a 9" x 13" casserole dish in it, just in a long straight line, but there's no way to turn off the turntable (except in microwave mode, as far as I can tell), so it's always spinning under a baking dish, which is too long to form a complete circle in the oven, causing the shape to shift to one side until it can't move, but the turntable under the pan keeps spinning. The instructions say to use a turntable, so I'm not sure you can just glue a pan onto the heating elements, but I don't think so. According to the manufacturer, the oven works best with a turntable. My brownies turned out great in a 9x13 pan on the turntable and baked evenly, but I'm concerned about scuffing the top of the turntable by rubbing the bottom of the pan. The 12.5 inch round pizza pan fits perfectly in the turntable, so I need a few more of these round pans to bake cookies and other things so the pan can rotate. UPDATE 7/1/21: I've seen signs of wear on the bottom of my 13x9 pan from the turntable, so that won't happen again. It's not a problem for me, but I want to turn off the player. You can only turn it off in microwave mode. Now I bake 8x8 cake pans and just cut smaller pieces. The cakes are a little thicker and the frosting is a little thicker, so oh no, poor thing. I rarely write a review primarily for anything other than whining about something. To me, writing a sequel simply means that I have an opinion. I don't think I can explain how cool that is. I'll try. Once you become familiar with this oven, it will do almost anything. I made Pillsbury cupcakes for the first time this morning and they came out just beautiful, toasted to perfection on top and bottom. Today I cooked meatloaf and pumpkin with acorns. Boom. Ideal. I'm a bad cook. I set the timer as it says on the packaging. Thing, ding, done. Take a low wire rack to place on the turntable (see image) and then place a saucepan on top. If you want to make a 12" pizza, use a 12" pan with holes, otherwise the bottom of the crust will be soggy if you use a pizza plate and shallow pan. The top will turn too brown and the crust will be raw. I've had the most luck with either "bake" or "convection". I will never use all other automatic options available. When I used the grill setting to cook cod smothered in oil the other night, it turned out better than I've ever cooked in my grill oven. I just wanted to let you guys know that this is a pretty good car.
