I have the Advantium 120 wall oven (not OTR). I love it for a lot of things, but find it useless for toast. I also find the broiler wimpy and time consuming. I stick to the broiler in my regular wall oven when needed. I got rid of my old toaster oven during the remodel, thinking the Advantium would make it unnecessary, but I really miss it for those small browning/broiling jobs. If anyone has had a better experience with toasting or broiling in their Advantiums, I'd love to hear details! I believe the 240 versions are quicker/better in this department, but I chose the 120 for its larger capacity. You can't have it all, I guess!

I have one (the Pro because it doesn't have the black control panel). I haven't been happy with my speed ovening results so far (I don't work at it hard enough to really learn it, however--I've never cooked in a microwave, and speed cooked comes out too microwaved-seeming for my taste), but it's fine as a convection oven and is the best microwave I've ever used. It's easy to use as a microwave, but a bit weird. The biggest deal with any of this type is changing the glass tray for microwaving with the metal ones for speed or convection. If you're both mostly using it as a microwave (that is, your husband is microwaving daily and you're using it on convection as a second oven once a week or something), you can leave the glass tray in it, making it easier. A piece of advice I got here and heeded was to have a special drawer just for the Advantium trays and rack, right with the oven. That is, not combined with other trays, unless the Advantium bits get their own section, and not on the other side of the kitchen. That makes changing the trays no big deal. Otherwise, people tend just to use it as a microwave, which is a total waste. So, to microwave, put your item on the glass tray. Press "Express" and it starts microwaving right away, full power, 30 seconds on the timer. Once it's started you can turn the wheel to adjust the time to the second. Four seconds is kind of hard. That's probably easier to press Express then Stop after four seconds. For just about everything else turning the wheel is easy. If you want multiples of 30 seconds you can just press Express the right number of times (four and a half minutes equals nine taps of Express), or just turn the wheel. You can give it a good spin with the side of your hand and make a big change. The menu bits are more of a PITA. I've learned, for instance, that defrosting a frozen pretzel is a .3 lb of a bagel, which is easier than remembering how long to defrost a pretzel for. There are the "cook" settings which include "melt" and "soften", which work pretty well, and the "reheat" settings (which I don't use) which include common types like beverage and pizza, some of which use the sensor. With my new kitchen I have fewer microwaving needs. I remember once adjusting the power--perhaps from adapting one of the programmed settings, but I don't remember how I did that. I did adjust the power regularly on my 1990 Costco special, but with the Advantium I almost always use the Express. That's for melting cheese or reheating pasta more than anything else. Sometimes I melt for butter for baking. I have other, better, ways of doing a lot of tasks that people use a microwave for. The sensor works great on the things I've used it for, mostly popcorn and (bought that way) frozen peas. A warning you'll get is that microwaving reduces the longevity of the appliance, therefore a speed oven is an expensive way to go if you're mostly going to use it for a lot of microwaving. My need for the speed part decreased sharply with life changes that happened during my remodel, or I might have learned to love that part of the appliance as much as I had intended to. Even so, I'm very pleased with it. It does everything else I want it to, and does it well.

Last year we built a new home and went with the Monogram. I wanted the handles, gas stove and the 240 Advantium. We are now currently building our 2nd new home, but I am preferring the Profile's handles this time.. and just don't feel the price difference is worth it, since I have been told that they really are identical, except for exterior features and price.

Just went through the same search and I sure couldn't find anything else. However it does seem that the current 120v advantium is a little more reliable than the previous gen. I also watched some videos where they were showing it do all the same cooking as what the 240v can do, just a little slower. The only other alternative I found is the pricey Miele H4042 or H4082. It is a 24" wide 240v, however to me it didn't seem as user friendly as the GE.
