Panasonic 27L Convection Microwave Oven (NN-CT645BFDG), with 3 recorded drawbacks against it. Convection is the difference between a reheating box and an oven -- it circulates genuinely hot air, so it bakes and browns where a solo microwave only agitates water molecules.

Convection is the difference between a reheating box and an oven -- it circulates genuinely hot air, so it bakes and browns where a solo microwave only agitates water molecules. Worth knowing that this is not an inverter model: it delivers 30 percent power by running at 100 percent for short bursts rather than actually running at 30 percent, which is why delicate melting and defrosting are uneven.
The number that justifies induction over gas is efficiency: about 85 percent of the electricity reaches the pan, against roughly 40 percent of an LPG flame, most of which heats the kitchen. The catch nobody mentions at purchase is the pan: induction requires a ferromagnetic base, and a good deal of Indian cookware -- aluminium kadhai, some stainless steel -- will simply not heat on it.
