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.

The property that matters in an Indian kitchen is that glass does not stain: turmeric permanently colours plastic containers and leaves glass untouched, which is why a set like this outlives several plastic ones.
Full details →Who the Panasonic 27L Convection Microwave Oven is for
Buy it if: Anyone who wants one appliance that reheats, bakes and grills in a kitchen without space for an oven.
Avoid it if: Anyone who mainly defrosts and melts delicately -- a true inverter model handles low power far better.
Who the Glasslock 18-Piece Tempered Glass Food Container Set is for
Buy it if: Anyone tired of turmeric-stained plastic and willing to handle the extra weight.
Avoid it if: Anyone carrying lunch daily -- 6.8 kg for the set, and glass in a bag is a risk.
