Abstract
A countertop cooking appliance having a housing defining a cooking chamber, a user interface, three heating sources within the cooking chamber, each separately controllable by a controller which distributes power to each heating source as percentages X1, X2, and X3, respectively, and X1+X2+X3≤100%. The countertop cooking appliance may also include multiple fans for circulating heated air within the chamber. Preferably, a first fan is positioned proximate the first heating source so as to circulate heat generated by the first heating source, a second fan is positioned proximate the second heating source so as to circulate heat generated by the second heating source, and a third fan is positioned proximate the third heating source so as to circulate heat generated by the third heating source. The fans may also be independently operated by the controller.
