Yes, both the microwave and the oven can be used at the same time; however, it will not affect or speed up cooking time since those are two different appliances.
Thank you and have a great day!

A:AnswerGood day,
The convection bake is great for baking pies, cookies, cakes, and bread. Convection roast is ideal for larger, tender chunks of meat. Heat travels over, under, and around the food, ensuring that meat and poultry are evenly browned.

A:AnswerGood day,
Yes, meat can be defrosted using this microwave model.

A:AnswerThat was the problem with the failure of this microwave. I was boiling a large pot of chicken and the fan could not carry the moisture away. The replacement microwave is a countertop 1200 watt unit and a hood fan is mounted over the stove.
