Oven/Microwave combo unit rating

[quindug]

I have a customer putting one of these in. Has anyone seen a combo unit draw this little of power? I’ve never heard of a combo unit only pulling 900 watts? This just doesn’t seem right to me only supplying this unit with a 12/3 nm-b.
Am I missing something?

That 900W rating must just be for the microwave. The specs say to install a 30A circuit, even though they repeat the 900W just underneath. But they also specify a 3600W broiler element, etc.
