Works great...But won't last!
This is my 2nd Rosewill oven...I love the way it works so well, cooking faster and crispier than my regular oven, and found it easy to use and clean...I also love the lower price for this compared to the costlier alternatives ( like Nuwave/Big Boss).
But after a meagre 6 mths of great cooking, it suddenly stopped working... no bulb operating....on close inspection, there were a few grease splatters on the halogen bulb (from chicken thighs), and that must have been enough to kill the bulb, and oven. So be warned...dont let spatters get anywhere near the sensitive and unprotected bulb...I now know this is a common problem with all these ovens.
Anyway, I missed it so much I had to buy another one while on sale at Amazon...and if lasts only 6 mths like the last...its still money well spent! So far its done great for 1 mth. But I sure wish they would fix the design flaw!
Apr 09/13.....update..this 2nd Rosewill just stopped working, just like the first..the fan...
Not enough info on how to use this
Maybe another brand will do a better job, but the booklet with this is worthless. It only shows a temp chart, no better specifics and no info on how long to cook. Recipes online may work for other brands, but not so good with this one. Tried a whole thawed chicken, 375 degrees for an hour + and it came out bloody. Same with a pork roast. We know a couple of people who have the brand in the infomercials and love it. I also don't like the fact that the drippings collect in the glass bowl under the meat with no way to get to them except to take the meat out of the bowl and pour it off, then put the meat back in the bowl. I think other brands have some sort of slide out shelf for this. Pretty much a waste of money so far.
What a waste!
You get what you pay for! Broke down after using it a few times. Very poor quality. This is a waste of money.
