Combi microwave / oven

Hello
Our current single oven is too big and yet too small! For big meals we frequently find it too small and end up juggling things around and some dishes getting cold while others are finished off. For midweek frozen fish and chips for the kids it’s fine and for other ad hoc reheating etc it is too big. I was wondering if I could get a 90cm large oven for weekends and big meals/entertaining and just use a combi during the week for the likes of frozen fish and chips (using the conduction option)…are you able to cook on two shelves in the combi like an ordinary oven or just one?
I could just get two single ovens but kitchen layout and space makes that tricky.
anyone care to share their combi usage experience with me? :)

What you need is an air fryer. It’s a game changer. We use our oven so rarely now where we used to use it almost daily.
I’d get one with 2 drawers though as it’s more flexible - you can do wedges in one drawer and something g else in the other at the same time. Last night we had pasta bake - I make it in a silicone container in advance, then reheat it first in the microwave, top it with cheese and then air fry for 10 minutes until the cheese is bubbling.

I’m struggling with counterspace so had ruled out an air fryer to be honest. I’d still need a microwave and a convection oven so couldn’t replace it with an air fryer alone I’d need to get it in addition and I just don’t have the space :(
