A:AnswerNo, microwave popcorn is not meant for a convection oven. A convection oven uses a fan to circulate the air within the oven to achieve a more uniform temperature, helping to prevent hot spots within the oven.
A:AnswerNo. The timer is basically the on button. You have to turn the dial past 20 minutes and then turn back if you need less time. I wanted to heat up pizza so I turned past 20 minutes, let the oven warm up and then put pizza in and timed it for 5 minutes elsewhere and then turned the dial back to zero when I was done. It's a little different but easy to work around.
