That's certainly true. It's totally dependent on your wants
and needs.

The way I cook, it'd be a no brainer. I'd go for the combo.
But that's just me and may not be what you need.

I like to cook things and the convection would be
indispensable for that. For just warming and heating things
up, cooking frozen food, etc the microwave would be fine.

Depends on your intended use.
