Welcome to The new Advantium™ oven uses breakthrough the cookbook for proper cookware selection and speedcook technology to cook food with light. food placement on the turntable surface. Foods cook in a fraction of the time needed in conventional ovens, with delicious results. Advantium browns, bakes, roasts, broils, and crisps just like a conventional oven, and requires no preheating.
