Kenmore 80822 over-the-range convection microwave

Date Published: 6/27/06

If you love to cook and want to get more out of your microwave oven, consider an over-the-range convection model such as this one from Sears. The Kenmore 80822 does far more than just reheat leftovers and prepare simple foods. Thanks to the convection addition, you can bake bread, roast a chicken, or prepare a layer cake. A combination of convection and microwave energy make all this possible--with a time savings of about 1/3 to boot. And, when you don't need both browning and speed cooking, opt for the heated cycle of convection or the faster setting of straight microwave.

Sophisticated controls make this model a snap to use. Equipped with a technologically advanced sensor, this convection microwave can automatically and accurately prepare and reheat many foods, regardless of quantity. Thawing foods for dinner has also never been easier. Simply enter the weight of frozen meats, and this oven quickly and easily programs defrost times. As an alternative, a manual defrost function is also included. Likewise a five-speed ventilation hood is included in this unit. Offering 300 cfm of air movement, this system does and excellent job of removing heat and grease from the air. Many similar units are available, but the Kenmore 80822 over-the-range model from Sears packs in lots of value for the price.
