Microwave/oven combination
Haven't tried using it yet. Why didn't they just put in a gas oven? How efficient is the oven part and your experiences, Thanks.

My MH has a convection/microwave combo and while it bakes nicely, I would prefer a gas oven. I can run the microwave for short periods but can't run both the convection and either the A/C or small electric space heater without tripping the breaker. So unless the outside temp is nice enough to not run either, I don't bake. It definitely limits the types of meals I cook when traveling in places/times requiring some artificial climate control.
We too, prefer the gas oven. Our cast iron skillet and griddle stow there and when camped, wife loves to do her baking of desserts in the oven. Me, I'm a dutch oven cast ironman and that means outside on the fire. To us, a gas oven is multi-tasker: it's storage and broiling/baking appliance as well. I wouldn't even consider putting my cast iron in the convection.
To each their own: for those who do little baking and cooking on the road, I can see where the convection microwave oven combo would be more practical. For those of us who do more traditional cooking and gatherings, the gas stove and oven works.
