I had an interesting realization.
My grandparents, parents, relatives, and friends don't have ovens.
In most households, microwave ovens are the main appliances and oven functions are just an accessory🤔
I guess oven cooking isn't very common in my country☺️
Interesting☺️

Thank you!

By full size do you mean the built in size?
I think what I have is a portable oven🤔
It has a microwave function☺️
