Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Versatile enough to roast, cook, and bake, and handsome enough to use at the table, this 6-1/2-quart electric roaster oven brings 750 watts of power to the task of preparing family meals. Meats and poultry go directly into its nonstick-lined, enamel-on-steel insert pan (12-1/4 by 8-3/4 by 4-1/4 inches) for roasting. Soups, stews, chili, corn-on-the-cob, and other vegetables also go into the inset pan. Doughs and batters for baking breads and cakes must go into another pan, but then that pan can go into the insert pan. The roaster oven's temperature control can be set as low as 200 degrees F for warming and as high as 450 degrees F for baking. From stay-cool handle to stay-cool handle, the unit measures 18 by 9-1/2 by 11-3/4 inches, cleans easily inside and out, and carries a two-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars So versitile!, January 6, 2002

I am very impressed with the Hamilton Beach 32600S 6 1/2-Quart Roaster Oven. It's so very versitile and easy to use. It makes the best roast chicken you've ever tasted! Just wash your chicken, put it into the roaster oven, sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder and Mrs. Dash... then set the timer. It's so good and good for you since the rack keeps the grease away from the chicken. I hope I have been of some help.

I have had this roaster oven for over a year. I never leave home for any extended time that I don't take it with me if I will be preparing meals. The heat comes from the sides so never any burned on the bottom foods. Predictable low temperatures to very hot temperatures which can brown the foods. Different from a fry pan and much more versatile than a slow cooker. I am puzzled that more people don't use these. Probably just not very well known. I think its a gem.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much better than the crock-pot!, January 7, 2004

This review is from: Hamilton Beach 32600S 6-1/2-Quart Roaster Oven (Kitchen)

I bought this 6.5 qt roaster at Shopko on sale for only $23.88. I think I might as well retire my crock pot! Like the last reviewer, I don't know why more people don't use these small roasters for their everyday cooking. They work just like the large 18-20 qt roasters that are "en vogue" right now for Thanksgiving and Christmas turkey roasting. Like a regular oven, the temperature range is from 200 to 450 degrees - use for both slow-cooking and regular cooking. The metal insert pan is much lighter and therefore easier to handle and clean than the heavy ceramic crock-pot inserts. Also, the oval design allows you to spread out foods a little more for cooking than the standard round slow-cooker design. Anything I've roasted is done as fast as it would be in my regular oven, even though you don't preheat. (Example: meat loaf in 45 minutes.) I guess since you don't preheat, it's acutally done faster. I'm sure it's definitely using less electricity than heating the entire oven also. And, you could theoretically bring it on an extended road trip to cook in your hotel or RV instead of eating out! Much easier than toting around a heavy crock-pot or 20 qt roaster oven. The biggest plus for me is that since this is only counter-top accessible, my toddler can't be accidentally burned like with the regular oven that she can reach. It's also a lot easier to baste foods and check for "doneness" without burning myself, too!
