Has anyone here actually heard about? Any actual experiences and/or performance reviews?

Me, I know it uses the thirty-minute self-cleaning with water poured at the bottom of the oven, whereas I'm content to give mine the two-hours out of the maximum four or default three, my traditional pyrolyctic system uses, and I always get a great, safe clean, not to mention trouble-free operation if it, as well as the rest of my oven and stove...

Well Dave,

I did notice in the tv commercial that the oven has a reflective interior, which likely helps things crisp up. otherwise, I bet the convection fan is the air fryer device, with a meash basket to air fry with, or a pan. They do not make a range with true third element convection, unless this os the first.
In general, Frigidaire, and US/Canadian E-Lux ranges are not among the best in quality, and do have lower price points than even GE's with like features.
I saw you own a range made by them, either Frigidaire, or Kenmore. Our daughter has one with fan only convection. I've used it, and don't like the way the burners heat. Odd flanme control and pattern. It does have the griddle center burner, which can be handy for oblong cookware, but it too heats stragne. The oven is gas, it is not a dual fuelie. It really heats up her kitchen in warmer months, and does not bake as evnenly as our GE Profile dual fuel. Some of GE's free standing dual fuel models even have gas preheat assist.
If your want to spend over $2 grand on a convection range, I suggest GE, Whirlpool, or Kitchen Aid.
 
They have true convectin Dave,

though how would a 120 volt third element perform on the gas model? I doubt it has a third gas burner behind the fan for $2 grand.
All 3 are also slide in nodels only. Even the induction model is onyl msrp'd at $2,500. A GE slide in induction range is listed for about $3,500.
 
Yes, my range is a Frigaidaire Gallery...

With the faux fan convection: A knock out with the screen but no true fan, just a Speed Bake to give me the impression of going half way to speeding up the task...

I was just curious about this range I had seen an ad for...

Nothing I would seriously put that much money into, as much as hope any house I live/move in has one in the future...

Funny how Firigidaire pioneered the electronic control panels with numbers, that mine doesn't have--obviously they're easier to set...

I've been air frying stuff in our oven since before it became a thing. All you need is a convection oven and a wire basket. Don't even have to preheat, just put the food in, set the time and temp and that's it. Prior to buying the GE profile induction I was tempted by the Frigidaires which were much less expensive even here in Canada their induction is about $1100 Cdn, but it just had an overall cheap feeling to it,, the bottom draw was particularly tinny feeling and the "frame" around the control panel on the slide in was plastic, easy to burn/melt if you slid a hot pan over it
