Now that I can't Jinx myself.......

Now that I can't jinx myself-

Everyone who has been on this forum for any length of time knows what a disaster the Apollo Half Time microwave/convection ovens were. The failure rate seemed to be through the roof.

When we bought our Winnebago in 2007 (we sold it in 2017 which is why it's now safe to post this) it came with an Apollo Halftime Oven. I waited for 10 years for it to fail.

When we sold the Winnebago, the oven was still going strong. It lasted the full 10 years. And, it wasn't like it wasn't used. Since that RV had no gas oven, we used the Apollo all the time.

I just had to brag to all the folks who suffered with Apollo ovens that at least one oven went the distance.

(Our 12 month trial subscription to Sirius/XM was still playing after 10 years too. We never listen to the radio, and about 2 or 3 years into ownership discovered that the trial subscription was still playing. Thereafter, I would check every trip just to see, and the day we sold it, it was still playing. I bet whoever buys that RV believes that we are still paying the subscription unknowingly.)
