Oh My Gosh It’s Huge!I recently bought the Nutrichef Vertical Countertop Rotisserie Oven. I like it very much. So much so, I am making this comprehensive positive review. If you’re like me, you will appreciate the depth and scope of my thorough review to help you decide if you want to purchase. First, It came incredibly fast. I ordered it late Sunday night, and it was delivered Tuesday afternoon. Fast delivery aside, I am very impressed with the size of the oven, and with the quality of construction. I read some negative reviews suggesting the construction was sub standard. I disagree with those reviewers. I found it to be constructed very solidly. I like how the curved tempered glass door stays open, when you open it all the way, and shuts by itself, when you put it in any other position besides fully open. Setup was instantaneous, as it was fully assembled right out of the box. You might want to wash the racks, skewers, bowls and pans, as well as the inside of the oven, just to remove any grease or manufacturing residue from the factory. There really didn’t seem to be any, but I washed all the accoutrements anyway, just to be safe. The oven comes with everything you could possibly want for making kabobs, for using the rotisserie, and even for baking. I did a 20 minute “burn in “, to make sure that any fumes or smoke from the initial use did not get on my food. There was a small amount of smoke, when I first turned it on, but it only lasted a few seconds. I like the fact that you can adjust the temperature . I also like the option to set the timer to the “Stay On” setting, for slow cooking. Make sure to turn the timer knob counter clockwise to get to the “Stay On” position. Don’t try to force the dial to go past the 60 minute setting. The timer is very accurate. I cooked a medium sized chicken, and there was room to spare, as you can see from the photo, (attached). I wanted to attach a picture of how neatly it stores away in my cupboard, but you’ll have to take my word for it, as I couldn’t seem to attach more than one photo. Luckily, I have big cupboards, because this thing is huge! My chicken came out perfectly cooked. It was juicy and tender. The rotisserie motor worked perfectly. I can’t really speak to the versatility, as I only cooked one chicken, so far, but I tested the heating elements in both configurations, and in different modes and it worked fine. I’ve even seen a picture where one element was horizontal and one was vertical. I find the ability to manipulate the heating elements very interesting. That is sure to be useful. I read that a few people thought that this model oven was top-heavy. I agree it may be tipped over easily, if you have a small child, or a michievous cat. That being said, I believe it’s perfectly safe, unless acted upon by an outside force. I certainly wouldn’t pass up this great bargain, because of a high center of gravity. I just took a little strip of cardboard from the packing material and made a little wedge to place under the front of the oven to make sure my cat doesn’t accidentally knock it over. If you look close at the photo I attached, you can see how easily the high center of gravity can be neutralized. One more thing worthy of note is the ease of cleaning. It cools down very quickly, and can be wiped down with a damp paper towel in seconds. All in all, I would recommend it to anybody in the market for a versatile space saving appliance that makes a great addition to your kitchen. It could replace many of your other appliances. It’s fun to use, and I feel is well worth the money.

REALLY WORKS WELL!!The media could not be loaded.

 Works great if set up correctly, not that hard to put together. Didn’t need anything extra just adjusted twice and was cooking. People if you don’t remove the metal tray at bottom you can’t set up rotisserie. Door has a hinge but does stay open just fine when your ready to close the door hold the handle it will spring back once the door gets moving but is easy to keep from slamming with proper handling. It is about too heavy as mentioned so please keep small children back it gets very hot very quickly. Would absolutely buy another if or when this one goes out. The only downside in my opinion is the company should give 14 not 7 skewers. But you can buy more of the same skewers on Amazon. To the haters even know you have a right to your opinion please read your book and set up things right before you write bad reviews.

Takes toooo longI like the design I like how easy it is to clean, it takes way to long cook, a whole chicken 4.5 lbs more than 2.5 hours likely sue to the heat escaping through the door.

Awesome Small ApplianceI wasn’t sure what to expect at first. I bought it blindly so that I can taco Al pastor and this delivered awesome results. You cannot fit a pizza in it. I’m using it for skewer recipes and rotisserie only.
