Excellent if you want meals double quick. Comes with useful recipe book but is easy to use for simple meals. Operating dials easy to use and has range of additional accessories. It is a large item however and does take up a fair amount of counter space if you have a small kitchen, also the top [lid] will burn the counter if you don't use the special stand which takes up more space. Its an efficient cooker but practice needed [literally] to get to grips with handling it!

I use this cooker nearly every day and it works fine. A few things about it annoy me though. The halogen bulb sits in such a position that the light shines brightly through the glass area of the lid, thus completely dazzling anyone who is nearby. To remedy this I have had to make a sunshade type of thing out of foil to put around on the outside of the glass lid. Secondly, the two metal racks are much more flimsy than the ones my old halogen oven had. They bend under the weight of a joint of meat, and they flip over if you catch the edge of them. They also rattle very annoyingly at times. Lastly, the lid is slightly too small diameter wise to fit perfectly in the glass bowl rim. This also rattles annoyingly. It's a shame that there are these frustrating faults because the cooker actually cooks really well.Read full review

For the price well worth it. Have used a halogen oven for over five years now and this is a replacement for my original one. Original had a hinged lid, where as this one the lid has to be removed. Would recomend the hinged lid version, but as I was buying two I bought the unhinged versions which worked out cheaper than buying one hinged one. Cooking wise, I use it for virtually for everything that I cook, I like the fact that you can see the food cooking and can stop and start to add things without losing lots of heat like you would with a conventional over. Also never dries the food out.

Given that I'm 71 and had three children, I'm pretty capable in the kitchen. Now, with two of us, my Halogen cooker is totally indispensable !! I've used my first Andrew James one almost daily, rarely needing my double oven's facilities ! I always steam veggies anyway (healthier, switches itself off too, so safer if the phone rings !! (or I forget !!)). My first machine had such a hammering, that when the fan went it was a very quick decision to replace with the same ! At this price it was not even up for discussion !! Fabulous, wonderful machine !! Take great care - it does get hot !! It's REALLY cooking, not like a microwave !

Whilst this oven looks and feels like pretty much the same as all the others I have owned ,time will tell if the extra expense was worth while.delivery ,packaging was good.The spare element could extend its use .nothing more to say other than if you have never owned one ,These ovens are brilliant .
