What is the differance between at Sharp r930 aw or a sharp r930 ak microwave convection oven
515149
This product comes in black, white or stainless steel. R930 is the product and the letters after it refer to the outside color. That said Sharp is having a serious problem with this product. My first one lasted 8 years and was wonderful. I replaced it in feb 2014, it fied in nov 2014. It was under warranty and they tried almost 8 weeks to fix it. They sent me a replacement and it wouldn't preheat to the temp we wanted, same problem as the last one. We returned it and they sent another one, thus was the 4th one. It also won't reach the oven temp, you preheat to 350 and it only reaches 250. You preheat to the max setting 450 and it only reaches 375. Until Sharp realizes they have a problem to correct, save yourself a headache and buy something else. When this product works, it is wonder as a second oven and microwave, problem is it doesn't work as an oven.

All I know is that it cooks faster and I like the fact it will not destroy nutrients as a microwave can. I use it when it very hot in the summer and I can put this on my deck and not heat the kitchen with the range. If it cooks faster the electricity is on a shorter period of time, but then one has to compare the energy output versus to what one is comparing it, if you want to know if you are saving electricity. So in my humble opinion check the energy output of what you would use , calculate the time you have to use it then compare the same data to that of the convection oven. Hope this helps.

I'd truly caution you from buying this microwave unless you are placing it on a counter NOT surrounded by cabinets! It get HOT! My built-in of this microwave was replaced with Advantium and it is SOOOOO much better!

Don't have a clue -- I'm using it in my standard wall oven. I don't have a convection oven, and don't need it in my microwave. Sorry

Having had both of these ovens, I will say without a doubt that I prefer the NuWave over the Flavorwave with only 1 exception and that is the self clean feature of the Flavorwave is very helpful. The difference in the cooking is rather evident when preparing side by side a 5lb roast chicken in the NuWave and Flavorwave as I have done this week. The NuWave cooked the chicken quicker and the amount of fat that drained off was significantly more than what the FlavorWave did. Interestingly enough, although the FlavorWave goes to 500 degrees, I find that the NuWave does an even better job with its full power 350 degrees and with the expander ring, you are able to cook an even larger piece of meat than I can with my Flavorwave and its expander ring. When the dome of the NuWave cracks (as it will after time depending on how much you use it) you can get a new dome from the company and even with this "flaw", I much prefer the NuWave

There is no difference. I bought the MC701 from Target for $99 and the MC703 on Amazon for $159. They are both 1200 Watt units, exact same model. The MC703 just refers to the unit with oven mitts, heat pad, muffin pan. It is a marketing scam. Buy the MC701 from Target for $99 and use your own mitts and hot pad. The MC701 sears and sautees even though it does not list in on the box. It tells you how to sear in the owners manual and recipe book included. You just turn to Stove Top High and sear your chicken, etc. in the unit. I checked the model# on the physical units and they are identical. I then called the support line at ninjakitchen.com and they verified that the only difference is the additional cooking items. So save your money and buy the MC701. See picture and description of professional model on ninjakitchen website. Only difference is hotpads, mitts, muffin pan and a lame, too small warmer: http://ninjacooking.ninjakitchen.com/special-offers/

I commiserate with you about your convection oven. I haven't been happy with mine since day one. I'm not having the same problem you're having but I don't like the way it functions.

I cooked for many years in an older model sharp convection oven. I found anything I could cook in an oven I could cook in a convection microwave ie hams, baked Mac n cheese, sweet potato pie....I used Corelle casserole pots and non stick baking pans. I believe I cooked at 25 degrees less than recommended temps for black nonstick pans (just like a regular oven). I really enjoyed having the convection microwave during the hollidays. While the turkey was cooking in the regular oven, I could cook everything else in my convection oven! Enjoy:)

I've had mine since December. LOVE IT! I love the fast bake feature and the convection oven works wonderfully! Especially nice when I don't want to heat up the entire kitchen! Follow the directions for the install, and enjoy it!

Major difference between those 2 models is max power. NuWave PIC can go up to 1300W and NuWave PIC Pro High Powered can go up to 1800W. In practice it means that you will be able to cook "faster" with Pro High Powered model but in the same time you will need to make sure that the wiring for your kitchen outlet is 20A. If it is not the case you will face frequent pops of your fuse on this outlet or create fire hazard if installation is not done properly. Just as a safety precaution manufacturer equips this kind of devices with special plug that will not fit regular 15A outlet. It means you will not be able to use it in a lot of places where there is no 20A outlet. I personally own basic version and it is sufficient for my cooking needs. Nevertheless if you are power hungry you may look for 3000W Induction Cooktop from other makers. This kind of equipment will set you up for alteration of you kitchen wiring to 220V. In general it is not that difficult since the most american kitchen should be pre-wired for this possibility.

Since I've never used a Tfal fryer, I can't really compare them. As I understand it, though, the two items are completely different in their technology, as in a fryer compared to a convection oven. I'm afraid your question is like comparing apples to oranges.

Sorry, I am not very technical. I use the convection oven as an oven and the microwave as a microwave but I think it can be used as a combination but I haven't used it that way. I could not do without one of these appliances in my kitchen, I use it constantly.

I confirmed this is a Sharp Carousel R659YW 2.2 Cu. Ft. 1200W Countertop Microwave Oven

I can't tell you about the microwave ... i only use the convection oven and it is very good. Would reccommend it.

My bride of 44 years tell me that it is straight convection, when used in that mode. However, there is a compu cook mode, it will combine both means of convection and microwave. From my perspective, when using convection, we use a metal dish, and it doesn't spark. That seems to be the sign that it is only using convection when in the convection mode. I sure hope this helps. This is the second of these that we have had, and we both love it. Good luck, and again, I hope this helps you. Harry

I've only had this model a few months, but I love it. I bought it for the convection oven for those few times a year when one oven is not enough. But I've found myself using it quite a lot to cook smaller things to save electricity on heating up the big stove. The microwave works well. I would recommend.

The heat is the difference plus the cleaning. When I have cooked with the SS one that I had it handled the heat better without scorching. The aluminum has a lower heat rating(not mentioned anywhere just what I have observed). Also cleaning the residue from cooking from aluminum to SS different. But I am happy with my aluminum pressure cooker. There are a few small adjustments. The difference in price and size was important in getting a new pressure cooker for us. But If you don't have price in mind go with the SS. If price is a consideration/size the aluminum is a very GOOD purchase!!
