Flavorwave Oven Deluxe 4 out of 5 stars

As seen on T.V., the Flavor Wave Oven Deluxe is an infraredcooking oven that circulates heat like a convection oven. A halogen light produces heat which is circulated around the oven. According to the infomercial, the Flavor Wave Oven will cook the juiciest, best tasting meals you've ever made. The Thane Flavor Wave Deluxewebsite promises a $99 oven that will broil, roast, fry, grill, bake, barbecue, boil, and steam almost any food just the way you want it. It sounded good at two A.M., so I thought I'd check it out...
Frozen Salmon Fillets... It did a great job on the fillets, but was useless as a steamer...my broccoli turned out to be less than crisp, more like a soggy mess.
Pizza..not the best, the pizza turned out crispy on the top...soggy on the bottom.
So lets try something else...maybe it's gonna get better, maybe it's just me...
After the food starts cooking turn the temp. down from 400 to 350. I used this oven twice for chicken, one for a whole frozen chicken and two for a couple of frozen cornish hens. I forgot to turn the temp. down for the hens but I did a better job on the chicken. Hey it's getting better!
Steak and baked potatoe...my steak turned out just perfect, but I had to wait for the potatoe for 50 min...so ate my meal in parts...
Overall, I think I'll keep it... I just have to get better at using it.It is energy efficient: only heating a small area around your food, rather than a whole oven and heating it efficiently, cooking quickly with convection. It's quiet. Does not heat up the house. When it gees to cleaning...5 stars!I soak the rack inside the bottom pan for a few minutes and both gee clean with a swipe of the sponge, no scrubbing.
If you find this guilde usefull please rate it.
Thanks for reading
