Waste of time and effort
on March 15, 2010
Posted by: oldcaptain
from Murfreesboro, TN
I purchased this item thinking it would be a healthy and economical alternative to conventional cooking methods. Due to a lack of availabe counter space, this seemed like a viable option, replacing my current microwave on the counter. Well, I tried it for a weekend and returned it shortly thereafter. As a microwave, it functions normally, although the power seems quite weak for its listed wattage. As a convection oven, I couldn't see a benefit at all, since it took just as long to cook an item as it does in my conventional oven. As a compact oven/broiler, it took longer to preheat than my gas oven, and the cleanup was a major chore. Add to that the incredible heat that's transferred to the cabinet, and it's just not worth the time or effort it takes to use it. The user manual/cookbook is very confusing, and offers very limited options.
What's great about it: The hype
What's not so great: Price, weight, difficulty to clean, complexity of use
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
