I have cooked: breads, pies, stuffed pork chops, stuffed chicken, a whole beef roast, chicken breast & tons more. The whole meal options are awesome!! This oven is sooo user freindly, and i love the fact that they gave me a lamintaed cheat sheet. it browns foods so perfectly and it doesnt heat up my kitchen. I love to cook and this thing has made me so happy. no more waiting for the oven to heat up. awesome! Rating: 5 / 5 [...] I love it, I’m actually waiting on my biscuits for breakfast right now.

There is no other appliance I use but this . . . for everything! It is just fabulous - from the convection to the 1/2 time options & the Complete Meal functions are great! I've cooked more than several roasts in this oven (along w/ veggies & potatoes at the same time), in no time flat (approx 20 min) & everything was cooked evenly, quickly & browned beautifully! <br /> <br />This really is the best appliance ever! From my biscuits, to roasts, eggs & bacon, frozen pizza, etc. this does it all. Again, the Complete Meal function cooks literally a 'complete meal' all at once, without a hitch. The only complaint I have is the metal non-stick tray inside - overcooked a roast once that stuck a little & unfortunately took some of the thin finish along w/ it. Now every time I wash it, a little more keeps chipping off in the same spot & would like to replace it but need to find one (hopefully somewhere cheap :-) <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />I would definitely recommend this to everyone! I actually got a brand new one that was a customer return/ repack for a fantastic price of $80 w/ $30 shipping - can't beat a total of $100 for this anywhere! Want to actually buy another as a gift for my dad who will also LOVE IT! Blows away a regular old microwave in every single way!

I was actually shopping for a new microwave when I came across this and decided to take the chance because it would also allow me to get rid of a portable convection oven and clear some counter space. The convection oven could never be run at the same time as the microwave because it would blow the circuit breaker which was very convenient. This turned out to be the ideal solution. I use it 3-4 times a day and have never had a single problem, so it's been run well over 1000 times. I can't comment on customer service because I've never had a reason to use it. I love getting convection cooking results in such a shorter time. As someone mentioned, it does collect condensation, but I do believe that is normal with any microwave. I've recommended this product to all my friends. Rating: 5 / 5 I purchased one of these from another source about a year ago when my microwave died.

I have had excellent results until yesterday when I was using it and the part that holds the glass turn table melted. I have tried Google to try and find repair parts with no results. Do I have to throw this microwave oven away or can someone tell me where I can find repair parts. Thanks. Rating: 5 / 5 I have had the Apollo Half-Time micowave oven for over a year.

This oven came in a brand new Winnebago RV I purchased in 2007. It has never worked since I bought it. Despite numerous attempts trying to get it to work, it could never be fixed. Finally Winnebago replaced the whole oven with another new Apollo. Guess what? It doesn't work either! Everything turns on, lights, turntable turns, etc. but there is no heat. I have been trying to get a service person to look at it for weeks. Winnebago told me to call Sears Appliance Repair. Sears told me they have quit repairing Apollo. I am extremely frustrated and disappointed - no microwave or oven to use for 2 years now. I wouldn't buy one of these for any reason and if anyone can find a repairman who still works on them, please let me know. Rating: 1 / 5 If I could give this NO stars, I would.
