Overview
Not just a microwave, the GE GCST10A1WSS also air fries, convection bakes and broils in a stainless steel cavity. A glass turntable, a stainless crisper pan and wire racks handle the different modes.
One appliance replaces a small toaster oven and air fryer on a tight counter, and the quiet operation suits shared spaces. It weighs more than a basic microwave and wants space around the top and sides for ventilation.
Who it's for
Small households and shared kitchens gain a microwave, air fryer and convection oven in one. Large families will outgrow a one cubic foot cavity, and anyone wanting a plain reheater has no use for the extra modes.
Pros and cons
- Four cooking functions in one unit
- Twelve presets cover common foods
- Auto and time defrost
- Quiet operation listed
- Heavy for a countertop appliance
- Needs clearance on top and sides
- Wattage differs between title and specs
- Limited cavity for large dishes
Performance notes
Microwave energy heats from inside, while the air fry and convection modes blow heated air over the food and the broil element browns the top. The crisper pan and wire racks position food for airflow in the hot modes. Presets set time and power automatically, and ventilation clearance affects how well the unit runs.
