Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Chefs know that the secret to great roast chicken is the rotisserie, which sears the outside and tenderizes the meat inside for a succulent and simple meal. And now, home cooks have the power of the rotisserie in an appliance that sits on the countertop. The wonderful video instructions demonstrate how to truss a chicken, place it on the spit rods, and connect the spit wheel. Set the timer for 15 minutes per pound of chicken and then watch it roast through the glass door. The heat isn't adjustable, but three settings--normal rotation, pause and sear, and no heat rotation--are designed to cook meats to juicy perfection. All the accessories for preparing meats, fish, and vegetables, plus many extras and recipe ideas are included. The drip tray, heat reflector, and wheels remove for cleaning. --Lynne Sampson

Editor's note: This is a reconditioned rotisserie. Reconditioned generally means that the rotisserie has been returned to the manufacturer, who brings the unit back to like-new condition. Some products may contain cosmetic blemishes.

My husband and myself bought this product because we already owned the Ronco Compact 3000. Since we needed something bigger with a growing family with was the one for us. Took it out of the box everything was like brand new.. I put it to use right away , the test was leg quarters. Set the time and off it went.. The chicken was wonderful, it was juicey but really tender. In other words just right. We did the same with Pork Chops, they turned out great.. I really have enjoyed the rotisserie so far. Expect one thing.. The spit rod came apart at one of the rods. The bolt was no longer holding it in place. So I contacted the seller and I had a new one sent to me with no problems.. It comes with a 6 month warrenty.. So keep all the paper work and the box if you are able to just incase. It is a really wonderful rotessierie to have around when you dont want to heat up the whole kitchen. If it wasn't for the spit rod breaking off, I would have given it 5 stars.

It arrived quickly and comes with alot of accessories. Remember this thing is silver not black or white. When first used it worked great except was extremely noisy as it spinned. It was like gears needed lubricated. Not sure what I am going to do about that but the food it cooked was wonderful. Cleanup was AVERAGE,not as easy as they say but not as bad as others have said. Overall we are keeping it because of how tender and tasty the foods are.
