Nutrichef Convection Countertop Toaster Oven - Healthy Kitchen Glass Air Fryer Roaster Oven, Bake, Grill, Steam Broil, & Roast - Includes Glass Bowl, Broil Rack, & Toasting Rack - 18 Quart Capacity

This is my third bowl-type convection oven and the best yet. The technology has greatly improved over the past decade or so. This new one is 2" larger in diameter than my old one and has a wider temperature range. It feels better built and safer. I had a prefect pizza crust from scratch in about 5 minutes.The bowl shape allows for cooking fairly large dishes and stacking at least two layers of food- 3 with the extender. Plus, it is so much easier to clean than the standard air frier/toaster oven! The whole bowl goes in the sink.I don't know why anyone buys the non-bowl kind. (I, personally, hated cleaning toaster ovens and conventional ovens). I never use my conventional oven any more except to store pans. The bowl kind uses less energy, gives off so less heat, and frankly does a more precise job with less mess.I use mine for baked good, roasting/broiling meats and vegetables, oven fries, pizza, reheating and thawing. I even have a toasting rack for making toast.Accessories, such as extra racks, are easy to get and stack to store. I also recommend a pair of silicone oven mitts and a steel lid rack for the hot top. This bowl oven will also take any 10" pan that you could put in a conventional oven, including Pyrex- lovely to cook, store and serve in one dish.

This is my third purchase of one of these versatile cookers that combine halogen, convection, and infrared heat technology to render a wonderful meal, without heating the entire house with a huge kitchen oven. Best of all, it can cook food from a frozen state, with no need to defrost; it can cook multiple foods at the same time—on different levels, and uses less energy and time to cook. It also cool when you turn the lights off, leaving it to glow its own romantic light. A glass of wine adds to the mood. But I digress. These little portable ovens sell with various descriptions, e.g. toaster ovens, oilless friers, etc., but the internal functions are—as far as I can tell—the same. My first purchase was the Super Wave Oven, by The Sharper Image some twelve years ago. I replaced it when the heating element no longer glowed or heated. My next was the Big Boss Oil-Less Fryer, which I still use. I bought this Nutrichef Toaster Oven as a back-up, to replace my Big Boss when it fizzles out some day. So, I haven’t used it. I hope it’ll be a long time before I need to open the box, like when I’m in my mid 80s. I haven’t used my regular oven since I discovered these wonderful ovens. With the extension ring that increases the cooking space, you can cook a whole 16 pound turkey in about 3-1/2 hours. I’m partial to cooking my frozen salmon steaks in about 15 minutes. No frying pan to attend, and I get delicious, non-greasy sealed-in flavor. I bought this Nutrichef, because it had the best price at the time.

I roasted the organic chicken drumsticks on the top shelf and turned them over halfway. Roasted on 480 for a total of 55 minutes for both sides. Came out super crispy with tons of lard-like fat congealed on the bottom of the fryer.Also cooked asparagus spears in a vinager dressing . Came out crunchy and yummy.It could do with a bit tighter seal with the top and the bottom, but all in all excellen and no bright lights. Just plain old electric coil in glass. Recommended.

I just received the NurtiChef Convection Oven cooker today. I am very pleased with how well it was packaged and the fast shipping. I unboxed it and easily set it up but cannot attest just yet to its functionality. I will definitely write another review after using it for a while. My husband and I visited family a few days ago and they used their NutriChef to prepare a meal for us. It was very delicious! We were so impressed with it that my husband secretly bought me one for my upcoming birthday and surprised me with it today! I love the size of the bowl and the multiple racks that allow for the food to be layered while cooking. The NutriChef makes it convenient to prepare an entire meal in one dish with fast and easy cleanup afterward. I do a lot of meal prep with my 6qt Instant Pot/Air Fryer. It does a wonderful job but limits me on the amount of food I can prepare per batch due to the size of the insert and too, not being able to layer the food on multiple racks. The NutriChef Convection Oven is just what I needed to speed up my meal prep days. Its 18qt glass bowl with extension ring adds more space for larger meals and the two metal stackable racks are going to be a game changer for me. I'm excited to start cooking with it!

I really liked this convection oven when I first got it. It worked well up until 3 months ago when it would only turn on after finagling with the handle about a half a dozen times. Now today, it was running fine but then just suddenly stopped halfway through cooking dinner. No amount of finagling would get it to turn back on. No fan, no heat, no lights. Nothing. Just the timer works.I can't believe this oven only lasted 13 months before starting to malfunction. I have owned these type of convection ovens since the early 90s. My first one, a Galloping Gourmet, lasted over 15 years. This is only the third one I have had to buy in all of that time and it is by far the WORST one. Not worth the price they are asking.I cannot recommend this defective product. Very disappointing that I wasted my money on this oven.

This is a replacement for my previous air fryer that lasted 4 years. This one is similar in design but made by another company. The unit heats up fast and seem quieter than my previous one. It comes well packed and came with a good assortment of accessories like an expansion ring for larger food like a roast along with several racks. It has worked well with the ability to reheat French fries and crips pork skins. The quality of the appliance is above average with a cost that is reasonable. Use this several times a week as cooking with electricity is cheaper than my gas range/stove
