I've had a Panasonic combi for best part of 7 or 8 years, gets used regularly for pizza etc. as well as the usual microwave. Full marks. Useful as a small grill but it tends to mess them up quite a bit (chops etc).
Having said that if you have a small "proper" oven it would probably be more energy efficient, the combi gets fairly hot on the outside (so must lose a fair bit of heat). I guess modern ones might be a lot better efficiency, don't recall this one having an energy efficiency rating as such.
If you have space, I'd go for 2 proper ovens and a simple microwave. Combi microwave needs quite a bit of space round it (due to getting hot).
