The DacorDCM24S countertop convection microwave is a premium choice for home chefs who want the performance of a second oven in a compact, 24‑inch wide footprint. Designed in sleek stainless steel, it offers a 1.5 cu. ft. capacity that comfortably handles casseroles, family‑size side dishes and larger dinner plates, making it ideal as a primary microwave or as a built‑in companion to a full‑size range or wall oven. What truly sets the DCM24S apart is its advanced sensor technology, which continuously monitors steam and moisture levels inside the cavity and automatically adjusts cooking time and power for popular foods such as baked potatoes, frozen and fresh vegetables, frozen entrées, bacon, hot dogs and seafood, helping to eliminate guesswork and reduce overcooking. In addition to traditional microwave reheating, this model features true convection cooking, combining a powerful 900‑watt microwave system with a convection fan and heating element so you can bake, roast and brown foods more evenly than in a standard microwave, turning out crisp pizzas, golden casseroles and roasted meats with impressive results. Five versatile cooking modes—convection baking, broiling, roasting, standard baking and auto functions—give you the flexibility to handle everything from quick weeknight meals to more elaborate recipes without needing to fire up your main oven, which is especially convenient in smaller kitchens or during holidays when every inch of oven space counts. The DCM24S also includes an Auto Start option that lets you program the unit to begin cooking at a preset time, so dishes can be ready right when you walk in the door, along with multiple power levels, an interior light, a generous turntable and intuitive electronic controls that make it easy to select the right setting. Thoughtful installation options allow this model to be used as a freestanding countertop microwave or paired with an optional trim kit for a seamless built‑in look in a wall cabinet or under a counter, giving you design flexibility without sacrificing performance. With its combination of sensor‑driven precision, true convection capability, multiple specialized cooking modes and programmable Auto Start convenience, the DacorDCM24S delivers a level of versatility and control that many standard microwaves simply can’t match.
