Consumer Reports Didn't Rate This Oven Very Highly

In fact the only microwave convection tested worth bothering with was the Panasonic. A model by Quasar (IIRC) came in a close second, and the Radarange dead last (again IIRC).

CR tested the ovens for things like broiled hamburgers, various baked goods, things that a normal convection oven are designed to prepare.

Issue with the Radarange and IIRC most other microwave convection ovens is they aren't "true convection". That is rather than having heating elements that surround a fan which constantly circulates air, these units used heating elements usually concealed in top of oven or elsewhere. Thus the fan merely recirculated whatever heat was inside oven cavity.

CR also took issue with the amount of pre-heat time required before these convection/microwave ovens could be used.

All this being said some bakers swear by older Sharp Carousel microwave convection ovens.

From the photo, it looks like this one is missing the Pyroceram insert for the metal shelf. If you are looking for a vintage convection oven, the Farberware Turbo Oven was the highest rated and weighs a lot less than these monsters. From personal experience, the Farber oven bakes pound cakes as well as a good full sized electric oven.
