A convection cooking appliance includes an oven cavity and an air channel assembly that extends about at least a portion of the oven cavity. The air channel assembly includes an air delivery section and a return section, both of which are preferably attached to the oven cavity through a quick latching connection. More specifically, the air delivery section is preferably mounted about an opening in a top wall of the oven cavity through a twist lock arrangement, while the return section is mounted about another opening formed in a bottom wall of the oven cavity also through a twist lock. In accordance with the most preferred embodiment, each of the openings provided in the top and bottom walls of the oven cavity is defined by substantially vertical flanges that define circular openings provided with various annularly spaced, radial projections which extend within respective slots formed in portions of the air delivery and return sections. The slots are preferably L-shaped such that bayonet- type connections are defined. The overall appliance also incorporates a microwave unit and a metal gasket is interposed at the connections of each of the air delivery section and the return section to the oven cavity in order to provide a continuous ground path between the components in order to contain the microwave energy.
