Title: Fantastic! Toshiba âML-EC42P(SS) 4 function Microwave / Air Fryer / Convection / Combination
Review: âFantastic! Toshiba âML-EC42P(SS) 4 function Microwave / Air Fryer / Convection / CombinationBefore I get into MY review I'd like to address someone else's review.====================When I was checking out the Microwaves, I stumbled across a review for THIS one that claimed that you couldn't type in the time to microwave, and so were stuck with 1 to 6 minutes, and then you were forced to press the "More" or "Less" buttons raising or lowering the time by one minute. Or using the "Start / Play" button to ad 30 seconds. Limiting the times you can microwave starting at 30 Seconds, 1 to 6:30: .5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5 Minutes. Though you can add more minutes by pressing "More". If this were true, this would be a HORRIBLE microwave, as we know that a handful of seconds can be the difference between perfectly cooked food and burned or overcooked food.She doesn't know what she's talking about, obviously didn't read the manual OR EVEN LOOK at the keypad.You CAN work it like she described, though I don't know WHY you'd WANT TO! First, she describes ONLY using the Quick Start buttons, which are the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and, if we're being honest, the "Play" Button (adding 30 seconds to the total, each time you press it). In conjunction with the "More" and "Less" buttons, adding or subtracting 1 minute at a time.All of this is explained in the manual.But, if you're not a "Manual" kind of person, then you only need to read the keypad. If a person does that, he or she will run into 3 buttons directly above the number-pad:Micro, Conv, and Combo. (With an Airfry button one line underneath the top left row.) With just the lightest application of "the Little Grey Cells" a reasonably intelligent child would be able to be able to make these associations: Micro = Microwave Conv = Convection Combo = Microwave then Convection CookingIf you press the Micro Button, the unit displays, "00:00:00" and if you start typing in the time that you want, it will start filling up time by inserting each new number at the right-most spot. So if you type "100" the unit will display "00:01:00", and if you add a number 2 the display will show "00:10:02", or 10 Minutes and 2 Seconds. As you can see, it's not too complicated.Review review is over. My review continues below.The âML-EC42P(SS) is a fantastic machine!I had some concerns about this machine:1) Microwave is only 1,000 Watts. Danger of under-cooking. More and more foods say they "Require" 1,200 Watts,2) Air Fryer might be wimpy.3) Some reviews say the manual is confusing.PROS:1) Manual isn't bad. I've read MUCH WORSE. Just read it a few times, and keep it handy for referring to it when you're confused.2) That it is a 1000 Watt oven is rarely an issue. But when it is, you can extend the time by a few seconds, or minutes.3) Air Fryer does a really decent job! Sometimes it takes MORE time than using the microwave (for instance, "Hot Pockets") would be. But it's a "Set-it and Forget-it" deal, and produces MUCH better results. (For instance, microwaving 2 Hot Pockets takes 2 or 3 minutes, while "Airfrying" takes about 13 minutes. But, the unit turns itself off after it's done.4) The Convection function can either heat to a specific temperature (Press: Conv->Set Temperature->Play->Play), OR it can cook for a SPECIFIC length of time (Press: Conv->Set Temperature->Play->Type in Time to Cook->Play).5) Auto Defrost works like a charm!CONS:1) Flat, smooth, bubble Keys / Buttons kind of to press / find. No bumps or lines to distinguish where they start or stop. I slide my finger across the button I want to press. 95% success.2) Only 1000 Watts.3) Keypad NOT backlit.4) Keypad / Display can be hard to read.4) Not smart.

Title: over a month in
Review: I've read people saying the microwave part isn't that good... well, compared to my old one (which was nice) this thing is much more powerful... (Toshiba 4-in-1 ML-EC42P(SS)) and it heats up things faster than my old one. The air-fryer and convection heater sound the same and appear to do the same things. There's no way to just activate the heating coil without the fan or the turn-table. My food has been much more evenly cooked, and only once I let it cook too hot, too long and it started to burn. So it can burn foods (faster than I presumed too..keep a sharp eye out until you get used to its power).the mute function was the first thing I activated and even when this is cooking at full power (microwave, air fryer or convection) it's half as loud as my old microwave. Basically this is better in every aspect than my old mw and it's also an airfryer and oven. Things I wish : Wish it had backlit buttons. Wish the included trays were a bit larger because I can fit a large full size pizza tray in there (on top of their included trays) and there's plenty of room for larger trays. Wish there was a way to make toast. (although it can toast bread, it's overkill...yet perfect for garlic bread), so I wish there was a simple toaster on the side or something but that's nit-picking. Absolutely pleased with this purchase and recommend it to anyone with limited counter space and needs both. Imo even if you only need an air fryer or a microwave, this will come in handy... I have a full size oven but use this 95% of the time b/c it's so much easier and faster.

Title: Microwave is fine and a good value but..
Review: This microwave is actually a really decent multi function microwave. All the functions such as microwave,convection,air fry, etc work good , but there is absolutely no instructions in the manual about how to use the airfry function and what the quick cook levels etc do. Even an online search yielded little results. I kind of figured it out by trying different temps and times. And the airfry was the main reason I purchased this along with size and fair price. I like that it came with the raised trays to utilize the oven and airfry options and it microwaves well. But I'm still scratching my head why nothing at all appears in the manual about the airfry function. I still give it 4 stars but be prepared to be frustrated If your buying it for the airfry option.

Title: Wonderful combination oven!
Review: When we remodeled our kitchen, we got all KitchenAid appliances, including a $600 microwave oven. The microwave was okay - but we always had issues with the defrost settings and could never get it to work right. We wanted a combo air fryer, microwave, convection oven and after reading the reviews, we decided to take a chance. We could not be more pleased with this oven and would recommend it to anyone! It works better than the $600 microwave oven we've had for 3 years! And we can actually defrost food properly!

Review: Lorsque j'ai reçu le four la boîte d'emballage était dans une mauvaise condition. J'ai quand même voulu voir l'appareil avec espoir qu'il ne serait pas endommagé et j'ai constaté que le côté droit était renfoncé et le côte gauche avec une un renfoncement aussi dans le haut et une légère bosse.Donc je le retourne le colis mais je suis désappointé c'est beaucoup de problème car c'est lour et pas facile à manier.Michelyne Blais

Review: En primer lugar quiero destacar las funciones que tiene, aparte de "simplemente calentar comida". Esta la función por la que más me llamo la atención que viene con freidora de aire incluida, lo cuál ayuda bastante y evita tener que utilizar aceite (aclaro que no es exactamente el mismo resultado que una de aceite, pero al menos en mi opinión en este apartado no decepciona) y por convección (para quien no conozco, que me incluyo y tuve que indagar bastante, esta básicamente te deja hacer una pizza e incluso carne a un nivel más que aceptable, eso si dependerá que tipo y de que calidad sea el producto que compraste), además de tener la capacidad de descongelar sin calentar (como usualmente sucede que tienes estar al pendiente o al tanteo o la más antigua de todas con agüita caliente, abarca prácticamente cualquier cos: carne, verduras, etc... y al momento de sacarlo del micro no esta ni de lejos caliente, me sorprendió bastante ya que pensé que lo iba a dejar a medias o tibio, pero no todo lo contrario).Finalmente en cuanto estéticamente este me gusto bastante, ya que es no como el tÃpico microondas de toda la vida. En cuanto a practicidad y espacio, tanto el que abarca como el que tiene para los platos le doy un 10 (la versión que yo compre fue de 1.5 pies cúbicos, aclaro porque hay que otras medidas).-Lo único de contras que le encontré es el dichoso manual/instructivo, viene completamente en ingles (para mà no fue problema porque si se ingles, lo comento para las personas que de plano no sepan nada de este, que aún asà no causa problemas) que varias opiniones de personas en E.U se quejaban porque casi casi era imposible entenderle a esta cosa por el manual, no digo que este bien el hecho de no explicar a detalle tal cuál las cosas, pero no es el fin del mundo, tranquilamente pueden buscar en YouTube el modelo y marca del microondas o simplemente "Toshiba Microwave" o "Air fry/ convection microwave"-El envÃo, este lo compre desde Amazon E.E.U.U y al principio y durante un buen tiempo se quedo en el primer punto de seguimiento, en mi caso soy de México y desde que lo compre se tardo aproximadamente de 2 - 3 meses en llegar, contacte al servicio al cliente de Amazon, ellos me mencionaron que debido al precio, tamaño e importancia la logÃstica se tardaba más de lo habitual, y asà lo fue, que de hecho por preocupación iba a solicitar un reembolso pero se actualizo y ya me aparecÃa un seguimiento.Con esto si compran este mismo microondas o uno similar desde E.E.U.U hacÃa México tengan paciencia y no por querer las cosas al instante lo cancelen, me ahorre cuanto trabajo y esfuerzo con el banco y lo que me hubiera esperado y al final si me llego en buen estado y funciona totalmente después de un tiempo considerable de uso.Espero poder haber sido de ayuda, más que nada porque no hay ninguna opinión de México o tan siquiera en español.

Review: I am very disappointed. After waiting weeks for this microwave, when it arrived, the package was open and the microwave was dirty inside like it was used. We can see clearly all the dust of food inside and outside also the plate and the basket were dirty. Now the big problem, the microwave does not have instability on the counter, it is not unstable, as it shows in video above, it has a short foot. How are you guys going to solve my problem??? I paid almost $500 dollares to receive something like that???
Customers say
Customers like the quality of the microwave oven. They mention it cooks things very well with microwave convection and is powerful. However, some customers have reported that the instructions are almost useless. Opinions differ on the functionality, heat level, noise level, space requirement, and value for money.
