A lot of Barths had the Sharp Carousel II micro-convection combo. I saw an equivalent at Lowe's last week - about $500...

The Sharp is a very nice unit.

just removed a very low hour Sharp microwave convection oven as it was no longer needed. its available for a new owner but shipping might be pricey.

Depends on your needs. We pulled out the humongous Sharp convection/micro and replaced it with a small microwave.

Reasons:

1. Wife didn't like convection.

2. Microwave can be run by a small Honda generator.

3. Microwave, being smaller, allowed a spice drawer beside it and a pull-out drawer below it, providing a lot of storage space.


These are our reasons, but YMMV.

As far as brands go, they are all Chinese, so its a crapshoot.

If you have an oven maybe the convection is unnnecessary, but our coach was built with only a 3 burner cooktop. The Magic Chef micro-convection works great in either mode or a combined mode. We often have a frozen pizza the first night out, and Suzie makes fresh biscuits for biskits n gravy, neither of which would be possible with a micro-only unit. Whatever you get, make sure to get an instruction book, because convection is a different animal from micro or conventional.
