Sharp or GE Convection/Microwave Oven?

[Jack and Liz Pearce]

Howdy, Y'all.
I am going to replace the original Sharp Convection/Microwave oven in
our 1993 WL. I am trying to decide between the Sharp or a GE. Please
offer your ideas, opinions or recommendations on either oven.

Thanks,
Liz

Hi Liz,

We used the GE Spacemaker Convection Microwave in our Bus conversion
and were quite happy with it. That was some years ago and now they
have the new Advantium (sp) which uses light or something to do all
the good things that the convection/microwave would not do plus all it
would do. I see a lot of them in the high line coaches these days.
Supposedly you can take a pork roast out of the freezer, put it in the
Advantium and it will be ready to serve in 30 minutes, all browned and
everything. That is what we will have for our next one. (Been praying
for the Sharp to go out.)

When at the Home Depot the other day, I happened on a person who was
very knowledgeable. He tells me that the Advantium is made for GE by
LG (the people that make cell phones etc.) and that LG is about to
market it under their own name. In fact, LG invented the system and
GE pays them a royalty. The LG is supposed to be available at less
cost. I suggest that you check this system out....

First recommendation. Measure the height width and depth and make sure it
fits. That may limit you to which one you chose.

Thanks for the info. BUT I didn't see any convection/microwave
combination ovens at our Walmart Super Center. Hmmmm.

Howdy, George.
Thanks for your reply. We looked at the Advantium but were not
impressed with it. Funny thing about who makes that technology. The
sales weasel in Sears showed me a Kenmore that has the Advantium
technology and he said that GE makes it for Kenmore. We just smiled
and nodded. As Jack works for GE, he knows that GE doesn't make too
many things anymore.

I'll put a yes down for the GE model.

Thanks again,
Liz

Liz,

We replaced our micro/convection oven with the Sharp available at Wal-Mart.
It is the only micro/conv model they offer. The unit is much smaller than
the originial Sharp oven (and a liitle deeper). There is not much
available--this unit was the most practical for us. The oven generates a LOT
of HEAT.
I installed a squirrel cage blower in the extra space above the unit. The
vent blows a least as much hot air as one of the LP heaters. I also put a piece
of engine insulating blanket between the back of the oven and the coach wall.
You may not have these problems with a '93. Be sure and look at the back
of any oven you a considering. The newer models are not flat on the back.

Hope this helps,

It sure does. Thanks, Bill and Rita.
Why did you buy another Sharp unit?
