Advantium 120

We bought the Advantium Oven about five years ago. It took time to learn how to operate it. Little confusing at start. It's now used every day. From baking, to re-heating. Thawing frozen food, what ever. We like it so much, that were thinking of buying another one for our summer house. I've had the Sears... read full review »

Worse appliance I've ever owned,

I have owned this oven for over five years. It has been repaired several times. Several major parts have been replaced at least once. The smart board is to be replaced again next week, this will be the third time, it was replaced twice in 2005. Repairs are costly. In 2005 three repairs totaled $1,404.19.... read full review »

Buyer Beware

I bought the Advantium when they first came out many years ago with the 220V I have had at least 3 service calls in the last 18 months and additional 7 prior to that. With out the warranty I bought I would have spent over $3,000 servicing and repairing this oven. So if you do buy this oven make sure you buy a warranty.

This is a great appliance to add to your kitchen; I recommend it over a standard microwave, because it does so much more.  You can bake and actually brown cakes and cookies, and the time is reduced by 1/3.  Baked potatoes come out with nice, crisped skins, and really fast!

AWESOME!

I have an extra oven now AND a microwave-in a small amount of space! I bake and cook in my Advantium more than my standard oven. Would NEVER be without it and will be putting this in my new home as well.

My experience

I had not cooked with an Advantium before. Since the house we moved into had one, I started using it. I WILL NEVER BE WITHOUT AN ADVANTIUM AGAIN. I use it everyday. I cook with it and I bake everything with it (including bisquits). No preheating, just pop open and 6 minutes later, your bisquits are beautiful. All I can say, once you use, you will not be without one.
