Perhaps the Best Purchase I Ever Made on Amazon
Built almost as good as my original Amana Radarange from 40 years ago. It has a real all stainless steel INTERIOR, not just trim on the outside front. Very roomy. Really fast and powerful. Fairly quiet. Incredibly versatile range of controls and functions take a little while to learn. Definitely download the full manual. The unit doesn't come with enough instructions. They really should give you the full printed manual. Comes with 2 accessory racks and a pan for air frying. Has a broiler and convection oven. When using the convection oven, the outside remains surprisingly cool. In fact, the convection oven and air fryer really doesn't heat the kitchen. It uses a fraction of the energy of my electric oven. It's big enough for almost anything but big cookie sheets or a turkey. Plates and half gallon Pyrex measuring cups fit with room to spare. I have a really small kitchen, so the fact that the air fryer, convection oven, toaster/broiler and microwave take up just the space of a microwave is a game changer. The only thing(s) that makes it less than the absolute perfect product is that only the time display lights up. (and no full printed manual.) At night, it's impossible to see where to press for various functions. Perhaps the best purchase I ever made on Amazon.

Disable the child lock feature, other than that, it is the best Microwave I have ever seen \ owned
I rarely write reviews, BEWARE: May Break if default enabled child lock is not disabled. Instructions on disabling it are within this listing. It child locks by default which means, you cannot simply press to open the door, instead, you have to press two buttons to get pass the child lock then can press to open door. Otherwise, if you open the door without pressing the two buttons it will not open and puts pressure on the open door button and eventually after doing this 30 times the button will not work and whatever is in the microwave will be stick and you will have a broken microwave.The PROS: It is a very nice microwave, it has a toaster built within it. Isn't that awesome! It can toast \ air-fry things like breads, pizzas etc... it does a very nice job too. It makes reheated pizza taste better than when it was fresh. The toaster hot bar things are in the roof of the inside of microwave.The CONS: The horrible child lock, must disable ASAP when you receive it. One might say "just press the two buttons to turn it off so you can open the door every time". The problem, no one in my house things about that and we instant press the button to open it then we press the two buttons then button to open,Enjoy!

Review after 2 months. A lot of functionality for the price, but a few annoyances.
NOTE: I only need a device to prepare small meals for me and my wife. If you plan to prepare meals for large parties, a large family, etc., you might need a different unit.I was going to get an air fryer, but then our old microwave died. So I opted for this combo unit (microwave, air fryer, convection oven). It performs reasonably to very well on all three functions. I really like its functionality, but it has some features that could be better, thus my 4 (vs. 5) star rating.1. OVERALL DESIGN (4 pts)PROS: (1) You get a lot of bang for the buck in a reasonably effective multi-functional unit that doesn't take up a lot of counter-space. (2) Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy to use on all tree functions. (3) It has a safety feature warning if the cooked item is very hot. (4) It has an additional safety feature to keep little children from accidentally (or intentionally) opening it.CONS: (1) The labels on the selection buttons are grey on black, making them hard to read unless you are at eye level--I've had a few mishaps pressing the wrong button. (2) The instructions and controls are not as intuitive as they should be, so there's a bit of a learning curve.2. MICROWAVE 4 pts):PROS/CONS: (1) It does a decent job for typical microwaving jobs: Warming food, cooking veggies, heating coffee, etc.. (2) But unlike inverter microwaves, which produce power continuously at the selected level, the GE cycles between high and off for levels below 100%. This makes it a bit tricky for softening butter, etc. (for that purpose, run it at its lowest level or use the oven function).3. AIR FRYER (5 pts).PROS: I'm a convert! (1) I have used it to cook chicken, and salmon fillets. The results are evenly cooked and super tender-juicy, and the salmon comes out nice and flaky. Haven't tried it on other foods, but first impressions are that it should work quite well. (2) The provided pan and rack is well designed, and the pan is easy to clean; The pan easily accommodates 4-5 chicken thighs or several salmon fillets.MINOR CON: Because this is a relatively small unit, and the crisper rack is pretty high, you have to be very careful when removing the crisper pan to check the progress, use a meat thermometer, etc.. It gets very hot.4. CONVECTION BAKING (4-5 pts.).PROS: (1) Haven't used it much, but its very handy for baking frozen lasagna, etc.. (2) It has a combo microwave-baking function that uses both modes to speed up cooking.FINAL WORD: Despite the annoyances mentioned above, I highly recommend this device if you use if mainly for small jobs and don't want to clutter your counter space with three separate units.
