Looks like the toaster oven we have. I'm guessing they used it as a base and added a scanner and controller to set times and cooking method.
Ok maybe I need to clarify
I ordered a steam/convection oven but it isnt a true combi oven.
I ordered this
http://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-CSO-300-Combo-Convection-Silver/dp/B00E6ZK8BQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1422480264&sr=8-1&keywords=steam+convection+oven
and I hope it will allow me to cook a few things like bread better than the regular oven.
I dont have the space for a true combi oven. There appear to be a bunch for sale in Portland on CL.
Looks like they retro fitted this unit

I have one and it works well.
It is this, with a barcode reader and probably some controllers.
And yes, one of the main selling points for that thing is the bread baking / proofing.
You might also consider a steam oven. I've used this on both steak and salmon and it works great. Somehow it feels easier than wrapping things and heating a big bowl of water. You can also get built-in steam ovens, but this thing is basically an overgrown toaster oven.
At first I steamed my steak (130 degrees for medium rare) and then seared it in a frying pan to finish, one minute on each side, but then I bought a blow-torch. I'm pretty sure the steak tastes better after being torched, but I'm absolutely sure that I have more fun.
Yeah what Lotronex said, I've been using this which can steam as low as 100F. I guess its fair to say its not really steaming it, its just baking it with some steam.
