LP oven/cook top or convection microwave?
Would you give up your LP oven/cook top for a convection microwave?
Forum Discussion
The answer likely will depend upon how you plan to use your camper; If you always have shore power available (I seldom do) then a convection-micro can easily replace the LP oven. Personally, I would never give up having an LP cooktop.
I currently have an LP oven/stove and a Dometic convection-micro'. The Dometic unit is is a very versatile cooking machine as it can microwave, convection bake, or broil (they call it "grill")… plus it has a few combo modes which will micro & bake or micro & broil. In some regards (especially temp' control & cooking speed) it performs better than the LP oven. IMO the only downside is that it is power-hungry (~1450W) which means shore power, or running the generator, or the truck engine.
