Microwave-convection-grill ovens are common enough here in Germany.

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.

Wow! How many stories does your lunchroom have?

If you hear a "whoosh", it may be Cheryl swooping in to castigate you
for grammer-kopping.

It would be sufficient to say "They installed one in each of the
building's lunchrooms."
