we're remodeling so have had nothing to cook with for the past 2 weeks except this microwave and a small 11" electric skillet.
it can be, simply, programmed to defrost the food, cook (roast/grill/bake/...etc.) the food, and hold the food warm until you are ready to eat, after it has been cooked of course.
i have had the velos microwave for about 4 weeks and during that time i have tried just about every cooking method it offers.
i like the fact that you can program an item to cook for different lengths of time and different powers.

so many features, such as sensor heating & sensor cooking in the microwave mode.

i only gave it four stars because my husband believes it cooks bacon slower than our old microwave.
i find this very helpful because i get engrossed by the computer or caught up in a phone conversation and sometimes forget that i had something cooking in the oven.
first you set the clock which displays a nice green color, its pretty simple, then put your food on the turn table and set the minutes that you want it to cook.
the one i have now works fine, but it is noisy with a machinery hum when it cooks.
it cooked everything well, is attractive if you're into the stainless look.
it is bigger and cooks very fast.
the microwave works great and those express cook buttons get lots a use.
