Default Need microwave suggestions

I used to have (I think it was a Sharp?) microwave that also had an
electric convection oven but also had a sensor that nailed the done time
without a timer, one potato or five, frozen food or reheating, it nailed
the cook time, I'd like to find another similar unit, anyone got one
they can recommend or heard of one?

I bought a GE Profile with later regrets, that was supposed to have a
sensor but always get an error.

Shop for a Sharp again. We're on our second Sharp Carousel
microwave/convection oven in 29 years.

In total agreement with George, my Sharp is now 17 years old. The
only problem ever was that whatever makes the turntable turn had to be
replaced, Local fix-it man had it back to right in one, not at all
costly visit.

My midsized Sharp (8yo, no convection feature) does all those good
sensored things - very pleased with it. I do have surge protection for
it, having had a 24yo Amana Radarange fried during a storm. jh

I have the GE Profile with the sensor. I have never tried it. I rarely use
the microwave to cook much. I do like asparagus in the micro. I'll have to
try the sensor.

Sorry about the blank message, quick fingers.

let me know if you get an error, what you cooked, container, etc if you
could I'd greatly appreciate it.
