More than just a microwave oven, the Rolsen MG2080SN functions as a countertop grill to help make family meals a snap. Cooking, defrosting or reheating on shallow round or square plates or casserole dishes work best and allow the turntable to spin freely. A digital control panel displays the function selected and counts down the remaining time. Other highlights include sensor cooking options, a digital clock and timer, a "30 Seconds" option, and helpful audible tones and visual indicators.
