Pros: Design, Versatility, Speed, Ease of Use Cons: Installation, Noise, Extra Metal Cooking Trays Are A Must
What a wonderful alternative to a regular microwave! We bought the Advantium 120 after seeing it in an appliance store. My husband though it would be great for when I was out of town and I though it looked like a fun new toy. I was a bit hesitant about...
Pros: Wow! Really fast roasting! Cons: Baking is a little less than optimal.
Update, May 2006: I have been using my Advantium oven for 4 years and continue to LOVE LOVE LOVE it! It works so great on frozen pizza and other frozen convenience foods. As a busy mother, I appreicate the ease and swiftness of its cooking and ...
Pros: Fast oven with many features. Cons: Non-ergonomic controls and poor instructions cripple this product.
I purchased a GE Advantium 120 in my new home after reading positive reviews and hearing glowing reports from acquaintances. My thought was that this was an oven that could accommodate that 'one extra item' that always appears when I am cooking for a...
Pros: Very fast cooking speeds with many various items, yields results similar to conventional oven but faster Cons: Very expensive
I'm sorry that this is not a full review. I can't do that since I have not been able to use one, yet. Please consider this as an addition to shelumiel's incomplete review on this product. He raves about the use of it and I thought it important to...
Pros: Fast Quality Cooking; programmable menus; solid construction; 120 Volts Cons: Must constantly swap cooking trays; exhaust is weak and noisy. Door handle broke.
I won't bore you with features and details. You can read about that at the GE website or in other reviews. Instead, I'll focus on some things not the GE site or others may not have mentioned. I purchased the GE Advantium 120 in December 2001 partly ...
Pros: Fast cooking- food tastes great; easy to clean Cons: Lots to clean if you're not careful
We just did a complete kitchen remodeling and added a new GE Advantium over range microwave oven. The oven cooks with microwaves and halogen lights; once it's fully powered up, the entire oven becomes awash in light- it looks like the food is being...
Pros: fast, friendly, and fun Cons: few recipes requires "trial and error" style cooking, can get messy and hot!
When building our new home, my wife and I spent considerable time in planning our kitchen. Among our "must-haves" was the built-in, stainless steel, GE Advantium oven.
As we worked with a large builder who was used to building the same...
Pros: None, based on our experience. Cons: Speedy to cook; speedier to break down. Sensitive, fragile & expensive.
Ours was purchased at Home Depot 2/19/02 ; installed 2/21; died 3/10/02 and at 7 am today, 3/13, the GE serviceman came and discovered a broken thermostat. It lived for 18 short days.
He called it “uncommon” based on his experience and...
Pros: lightning fast, many menu choices makes cooking a breeze, easy to clean, no preheat! Cons: microwave light doesn't come on automatically, constant tray shuffling
Our kitchen renovation 4 months ago resulted in all new appliances. Coming from Japan, where the appliances are much more size efficient, I felt the need for my 'oven/microwave' to do more than just 'reheat food'.
I simply love the GE Advantium Sppedcook Oven. I will give you some reasons you may love it too. I have cooked Filet Mignon and it came out better than anything I have ever tasted in a restaurant. One of the secrets is McCormicks grill seasoning. There...
Pros: Excellent way of cooking, with some great strengths and a few weaknesses. Cons: Reliability/durability.
The use of halogen lights and microwaves is a great idea. Makes for fast cooking, excellent results when you get the hang of it. Example, roast chicken. Follow the recipe and you get o.k. chicken and a very messy oven. Modify the recipe by covering...
Pros: good with casseroles, frozen food, cookies Cons: Problems after warranty. Paint flakes off inside of door, GE won't cover cost.
Ive had my GE Advantium (220V over the range) for just over a year. It does well for casseroles, pre-cooked frozen foods, cookies, and replaces a traditional microware completely. Its decent for most meats, although if you like them...
Pros: full-featured, easy-to-use, well-designed controls, and very helpful display Cons: Noisy fan
We have been using the Advantium for about a month now. It is impressively designed - the ergonomics is so well done, it is fun to use! We were afraid that the oven would be like a kid's Easy Bake Oven and would not be a serious oven to cook foods....
Pros: An awesome product for any kitchen, small or large Cons: Limited information out there for new recipes
I purchased my Advantium about a year and a half ago - probably the best thing I put in my renovated kitchen. I live in a one-bedroom condo and do a lot of cooking and entertaining. I use the Advantium mostly for its microwave and regular oven ...
Pros: speedy cooking time & easy to use Cons: price a little steep (but worth it!)
In building a new home, I went looking for new appliances to equip my large custom-built kitchen (I LOVE to cook!). The GE Advantium Oven caught my eye and I decided to splurge on an appliance the promised oven-cooked food for microwave time.
