      How did the two differ? I was dead set on getting an oven with a built in air fryer. I have the new wave elite, but it is a massive appliance to take out on the daily. But then I saw the speed ovens can replace oasters and microwaves and now I’m torn which one to focus my money on! Thanks!

      So a speed oven basically is a microwave convection unit that utilizes both functions at the same or intermittently to get things done with the speed of a microwave but the browning nature of an electric element.  An air fry feature found in many regular stoves today is like convection on steroids. It is a higher-speed fan and computer-controlled algorithm that will crisp items thoroughly with the additional use of perforated trays so the food is cooked from all sides. Air fry is an option found in many new ovens today and works great. So speed oven is good for micro replacement as most speed ovens function as a microwave as well yet most air fry features are just an added option to a stove. Two different appliances.  Not to totally confuse you but this unit from GE is almost like an all-in-one as their Advantium technology does give results as an air fryer would. GE / MONOGRAM Oven

      I’ve used both in my kitchen adventures! Speed ovens are fantastic for efficiency – quick meals, less energy. But when I explored my culinary skills, the air fryer oven became a game-changer. Perfect, guilt-free crispy textures without the oil mess! The real decision-maker was my family’s weekend snack cravings. We could experiment with healthier versions of our favorites without losing flavor. So, I guess it boils down to your lifestyle: quick and effective or health-conscious and experimental. Both have merits, so aligning with your daily routine matters most.
