There was a GE ad made with Alton Brown about the Trivection oven on YouTube. It was like 15 or 20 min long and he made cookies and some other stuff in the video. Does anybody know what I am talking about? Cause I just can't find that darn video anymore :/ | ||

It might have been pulled since the oven is no longer manufactured. Micro thermal ovens, as a class of appliance, are gone from the US marketplace. | ||

Nah It was in his distinct good eats style, 15min or there abouts, where he goes into detail about the technology, does and don'ts. It must have been removed, but not because the product was NLA, the first time I saw it wasn't even 3 years ago... But thanks for the help anyway! And great manuals I have to say! | ||

He’s rockin’ a modified Fu Manchu, as well.
Gotta say it: The bottom drawer of my 2002 single-oven Frigidaire electric range was a warming drawer and although I scoffed initially, it saw regular use. Great way to keep finished product warm as well as warming plates/soup bowls. I really missed it when the range was replaced with a double-oven model in 2014. | ||

I think it's like a Merrichef/Rational type oven with simultaneous infrared/thermal/microwave cooking (think Starbucks or Subway oven). Those are made for foolproof cooking/reheating in a fast food environment (where they have the time to perfect the exact way, say, an ambient bagel needs to be optimally heated (if you've had one from Starbucks, they unwrap the bagel from the cellophane, open it up and put it cut side up on a greaseproof sheet, then "hit the proper button" which cooks for 25 seconds or so and comes out pretty tasty (evenly toasted surface, warmed throughout, not toughened or scorched). The corporate office tests all different combinations of heating; even including things like altitude, ambient temp, etc. to perfect the outcome. Kind of overkill for the home kitchen, where the expert is the cook and you're not trying for optimization over multitudinous situations/conditions/personnel.

 henene4,
I've never seen the video but the oven sounds cool. I did a quick search and like combo52 mentioned, these ovens that Alton advertised were first made over 10 years ago. Here is a no longer active link to G.E.'s webpage that featured all of their Alton Brown collaborations from that time period, this link is the Archive.org archived version so you can still view the page how it appeared in 2008
web.archive.org/web/200804100552...
You can see the link to the video you are probably speaking of under Cooking "Watch TV chef Alton Brown cook an amazing amount of food in GE Profile™ ovens with Trivection® technology."
But unfortunately Archive.org does not have the video archived, when you try the link it just goes to nothing. My guess is that the YouTube video you saw originally was part of an account linked directly to this webpage, so when this page got taken down the YouTube account did also, or at the least, the videos associated with the page were removed from the main G.E. YouTube account when it was taken down.
They say everything on the internet lives forever.... so I bet some Alton Brown fan somewhere saved the video and posted it on their fan-page dedicated to the chef. Finding it might be tricky though. CLICK HERE TO GO TO Sudsomatic's LINK | ||

Full Sized Combination Micro-Termal and sometimes Convection There were around 8 different designs of the very cool and great cooking ovens built and sold in the US from around 1967-2008.
All were Hi-Temp self-cleaning except one cheaper Litton model that was only continuous cleaning.
Most were all electric 30" ranges including General Electric-hotpoint, Roper-Kenmore, Litton, Caloric- Amana, Montgomery-Wards. GE-HP and Caloric also built models that had a 2nd oven above the cooking surface and Litton actually had a model with a 2nd MWO above the cooking surface.
Thermador and Modern Maid made only built-in wall ovens with this technology, TDs design was there own, MM was part of Caloric and Amana and used Amanas expertise.
Caloric was the only company in the world to ever make a GAS 30" Micro-Full Convection self-cleaning range, I have had one of these for the past 20 years in my outdoor kitchen and boy does this thing cook fast and well.
This ovens are all gone as a class now I think mainly due low sales and being very expensive to build, and probably most of all very few users were smart enough to use them, I even remember one stupid customer with a TD telling me that if she had been using the oven then wanted to MW something she had to leave the door open till the oven cooled so she could use the MW, LOL
