Abstract: A cooking appliance includes a bottom plate and a turntable. The bottom plate defines an aperture that receives the turntable such that the turntable is flush-mounted with the bottom plate to provide a floor of a cooking cavity as substantially continuous. A rotary hub engages with an underside of the turntable to transmit rotational motion to the turntable from a motor. The turntable includes a first material and the bottom plate includes a second material.

Abstract: A convection microwave oven (2) includes a moisture convection system (10) for providing moisture into the cooking cavity (6) of the microwave oven (2) to help keep heated and/or cooked items moist. The moisture convection system (10) includes a removable water tank (40) that provides water for the moisture convection system (10). The moisture convection system (10) includes a pump (42) that pumps water to a nozzle (46) that sprays water onto the convection heater (24) of the microwave oven (2) to create evaporate (E) that is moved into the cooking cavity (6) of the microwave oven (2) by the convection fan wheel (22).
