hello Sprightee I have an answer for you... but before deciding - prioritize your need. Are you planning to do more of baking cakes/cookies/pizzas? orits more for cooking and defrosting and re heating If you are for the first one - go for an OTG. If for the second one - microwave. I myself want to buy an OTG as baking happns properly with it.What i hear from others is baking is not as perfect in microwave as the mode of heating is different. Lets see wahtthe more exp people have to say! regds, PriyaDominic
Hi PriyaDominic, Actually i am getting an OTG as a gift Have not used microwave/otg before, so wanted to know what is the primary advantage of having it and how effectively it can be used.
ok.. in that case.. .. if you buy basic microwave it wont help you much with baking and cooking to the extend on OTG of the same budget can.... if you have an interest in baking i would recommend OTG. If not a microwave will be suitable for you. Did i help you in decision making? Happy cooking buddy!!
Priya is right. I tried baking in microwave and the cake turned unevenly cooked. With OTG it turned out excellent.
