Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Great for a family on the go, this 21st-century appliance combines convection, radiant, and conduction heating for super-fast cooking. French fries, pizza, and chicken nuggets heat up in just eight minutes, chicken wings in 10, and cinnamon rolls in only four. Key to the speed is an 11-by-8-1/4-inch wire basket that holds the food and permits the convection fan to circulate air completely around it. Foods that are normally deep-fried--like french fries and chicken wings--emerge crisp and flavorful. Steaks, hamburgers, and fish cook in minutes without oil. An electronic control panel includes crisping and browning options. (One caution: the outside of the oven heats up during operation.) For cleaning ease, the basket and drip tray are dishwasher-safe. An instruction booklet offers recipes and cooking-time guides for fresh and frozen foods. The 1,400-watt oven measures 18-1/2 inches wide, 11-1/4 inches high, and 12 inches deep and carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

4.0 out of 5 stars love it love it - A must for moms of Toddlers!, January 17, 2002

This review is from: Toastmaster TUV48 Ultravection Oven (Kitchen)

Well as you can tell I'm very happy with the Ultravection oven.
I would give it 5 stars, however, the cleanup is not easy.
When the grease from meats splatters all over, it takes more than a wet sponge (add some Dawn) to clean it up.
Plus I add a foil to the collection tray to make cleaning that easier.

I think I've used this oven EVERY day since I got it!!

We have made pork chops & filet mignon (frozen from Costco). Delicious!!

The best feature is the frozen pizza option. Today I had a California Pizza Kitchen pizza in 9 minutes!
The kids adore the chicken nuggets (8 min.!) and french fries.
I have even re-heated lasagna and leftover Chinese food. (each on a piece of foil) Each came out better than if I had reheated them in the microwave.

It is so great for lunch - for quick and last minute decisions, as well as, for dinner.

I know - I saw the infomercial and was unsure. And I didn't tell my husband I ordered it until it was on the counter.
But now he thinks it is great!
I'm so glad I got this. (Plus it saves so much time and energy so I don't have to turn on the oven.)

5.0 out of 5 stars VERY UNIQUE DESIGN!! WORKS LIKE A CHARM!!!, December 12, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Toastmaster TUV48 Ultravection Oven (Kitchen)

One of the reviewers didn't like the design. I must admit that I was at first baffled by the door that comes off with a basket attached to it(strange design indeed). The oven's bottom funnels down to a crumb tray underneath which makes for easy cleaning.

The door/basket is perfect for loading with french fries, tater tots, cheese sticks, rolls, sandwiches, onion rings, potatoes, chicken, pork chops, small pizzas,etc...etc. Everything gets equally heated top and bottom!

The controls are unique...If you're cooking a pizza just push the special "pizza" button. Everything else you cook will use a combination of three mode buttons: turbo(how done you want it on the inside), crisp(how crisp you want it on the outside) and brown(how brown you want it). Push buttons are used to select the amount of time in each mode(sounds hard but it's simple). You can taylor all your food to suit yor taste.

It comes with a very useful videotape to get you started. I've got to stop writing this because I'm getting hungry thinking about the great food that comes out of this fantastic oven!!

One last thing: My power bill has gone down since getting on of these!!! This oven will pay for itself fast because the price is great!!

4.0 out of 5 stars In a hurry? The Ultravection Oven is the answer!, July 14, 2002

This review is from: Toastmaster TUV48 Ultravection Oven (Kitchen)

I purchased the Ultravection oven after watching the infomercial several times. I was intrigued by the design and the price seemed more than reasonable. Having used it for several months, I can say the following: 1. For frozen foods and snacks, it is invaluable. It cooks the food perfectly in a fraction of the time required with more conventional methods. 2. With three heat settings and a programmable timer, you can experiment with your food to get the necessary doneness and browning. 3. Cleanup can be a pain, especially with fresh meats. However, I wait until the oven is cool and then spray a little Simple Green, wait a minute and wipe clean with paper towels. I also line the drip tray with foil, a technique suggested in an earlier review. 4. Toasting bread is better done with a toaster or toaster oven. The Ultravection takes longer to do this as you have to turn the toast over in the basket.

Overall, I really like the Ultravection Oven. It saves time and energy and produces perfectly cooked food. For the price, you can't go wrong and I think you will use it more and more as you experiment with the settings/timer.
