My 18 yr old Profection Aire Oven passed away a month ago & i have been looking for something to replace it. It used Convection heating by circulating the heat. Loved it.
The one i'm looking at now uses 3 heating techniques to heat at same time.
Infrared function is the one that i'm looking into
Halogen function
Heats the surface of the food for browning
Infrared function
Cooks food from inside out, sealing in juices
Convection function
Circulates the hot air, even distributes heat and speeds up cooking
Heres a little clip about it.

With new models of infrared outdoor grills on the market, some are questioning the safety of these high-powered cooking devices. High-energy forms of EM radiation, such as X-rays may pose a cancer risk, but infrared broilers, barbecues and microwaves don't have enough power to alter or damage DNA.
