GE Omni 3 Oven/Microwave

[maytagmark]

I bought this at goodwill about four or five years for 20.00,I've never seen another one,does anyone have one of these, It's a microwave and oven,also has toaster settings,I use it mostly as an oven/broiler,it doesn't say convection anywhere on it but it works like one,the fan runs when set on oven temps.,It gets quite a workout in the summer when I don't want to heat up the kitchen with the gas oven.

I myslef have never before seen one

You did well! Those things are pricey! (Funny how a Combo microwave conventional/thermo oven came up in another thread today as well!

May I request a "money shot" with the door open?

On second look, maybe that is the one I remember. I do remember GE having these in the stores I think in the 80s. My roommate in Minneapolis had a JCPenney-branded larger one like this and still does, he swears by them. When he moved to the townhouse, the last place I lived with him, he installed an over the range one with similar capabilities. I made a rib roast in it a few times with the thermometer, worked great.

This is about a 1987 vintage GE microwave...I worked for GE Capital in 1989 and they were selling off the touch pad version of these for $69 as I recall...not popular or something.

Thanks for the feedback guys, Steve, I will post a "money shot" but some cleaning is needed,The last time I made banana nut bread the upper element wasn't plugged in good so with it not working I took the bread out that should have been done and the batter sloshed all over the inside of the oven,Todays try came out much better, have some bread baking in the bread machine as well, Scott, I lived in a house for seven years with only a Vintage Frigidaire cooktop and a Monkey Wards micro/convection oven,I had a gas dryer in the kitchen where the stove would have been,even a large Turkey was no problem for that oven, here is todays banana nut bread. enjoy
