Hi,
We had purchased a Ronco rotisserie oven. For several months, it was great, the food was terrific. I liked a lot of the features. But it broke. My husband, an electronics tech, said it was rather cheaply made, and we became annoyed and threw it out rather than fixing it. We would like to buy a new one. We would like one that is large capacity- so I'm thinking 1.5 cu ft. We want to be able to roast a ten pound bird. Also one with a timer of two or more hours would be good...some of the ones we saw only went up to 60 minutes at a time. My questions a are there any makes/models that anyone here recommends other than Ronco? Also-- the Ronco had baskets where you could grill vegetables, cook bacon, etc. I did a net search and saw quite a few accessories for convection/rotisserie ovens and saw that things like that are sold. I was wondering if I purchased, say, a Franklin Chef or a Haier or some other make convection/rotisserie oven, if we could use the baskets in it...I was wondering if it's sort of a universal thing where they'd fit just about any rotisserie oven. Anyway, any feedback anyone has would be appreciated. We really liked the one we had but want one that is constructed a bit better so we really don't want to go back to the Ronco brand. Claire |

We've had one for 20 years and it works well today. It will roast a 12lb turkey. We usually cook goose and duck on it. It renders the fat; the fat remains clean and we save it for Cassoulet, etc. I just searched for it and have the feeling it has been discontinued. There's one on ebay. Good Luck Kent |

The Farberware open hearth rotisserie, originally priced at about $30, is apparently no longer made. You don't need, or want a small closed rotisserie because the heat is dirrect. http://cgi.ebay.com/FARBERWARE-Open-...dZViewItemKent |
