I have seen a microwave/ toaster oven, but not common. They installed one
in each floor of building lunchroom. They started breaking. I fixed one. It
had no turbo fan as I recall. I bought two norelco microwaves in 1979 from
someone. It had a top browning element, but I forgot how I worked, or was
hooked up. Also a temperature probe. The one would not work for seller,
because he did not hook up ground.
I modified unit by removing electronics, and installing mechanical timer.
My father used it, loved it. Just like the old heathkit mechanical timer.
