Is it an oven? ๐Ÿ‘ Is it a microwave oven? ๐Ÿ‘ Is it a countertop microwave oven? ๐Ÿ‘ Can it grill food? ๐Ÿ‘ Is it a grill microwave oven? - exceeded the question limit, big reveal, answer was "microwave". Interesting but I wasted a lot of questions trying to determine what kind of microwave it was because "microwave oven" was not accepted.

Even saying "oven" as correct threw me off. Ive never called a microwave an oven or a microwave oven. I was like starting to think maybe it wanted a specific brand of oven, or a synonym like stove

Well actually....

An oven is something you put food in to cook by heating the air inside of it.

A range is the burner portion.

A stove is a combination of the two.

Yes this is pedantic and I agree that they're often used interchangeably

I had already narrowed the size down to a smallish (I forgot what I used for comparison) electronic cooking appliance so a full oven was already out. "Toaster oven" was negative, so I tried microwave oven route instead.

I asked if it was larger than a microwave on my second question and it gave it to me...

Edit: There was an update to make it more lenient. Too lenient imo.
