Ronco Modern Rotisserie Oven, Large Capacity (12lbs) Countertop Oven, Multi-Purpose Basket for Versatile Cooking, Easy-to-Use Controls

This rotisserie will cook meat up to 12 pounds. It is exceedingly simple to operate, it is quiet, it cooks well and evenly, and it is easy to clean. I have cooked in this a number of times now, (chicken, ham, ribeye roast, and turkey) and I have been pleased each time. If you are thinking of getting a rotisserie, I would highly suggest this model and brand. It is fairly compact, and I was able to set mine on top of my microwave.

My parents gave me an old Ronco rotisserie years ago. I believe it was one of the very early models when they were sold via Infomercials on late night TV. It was one of the best Ronco inventions that was ever sold on those infomercials! The plastic base finally cracked to the point where I couldn't use it anywhere. I had fixed it once, but the glass door would no longer stay on and was unfixable. This is one of those kitchen appliances that you think, "Do I really need this?" The first one was given to me so when it couldn't be used any longer I had to make a decision as to whether I should spend $100 to replace it. The answer was 'yes'! This rotisserie makes cooking a chicken so delicious, so juicy and so easy that I couldn't imagine just roasting a chicken in the oven, again. The spits are sharp and easily fit into the chicken and onto the gears which rotate the chicken. There is a rotisserie function or just a rotate function (without heat). My model has a dial to set the temperature (figure 15 min/lb for the chicken). The instructions say that the spits can hold two chickens but the one time I tried two chickens they were too big and didn't rotate properly. I also cooked a boneless beef roast that was around 5lbs and it came out incredible and medium rare. You can also rotisserie a small turkey. I had done that once and it was also amazingly juicy. The product comes with a base on which to put the spits after cooking so you can slice beef, but I have never used it. The pan and pan top (onto which the grease drips) is easy to clean if you line the pan with aluminum foil, first. When my food is finished cooking and I've taken it out of the rotisserie, I clean the rotisserie right away, as it's much easier when everything is hot. As the unit cools down a bit, I take glass cleaner to clean the inside of the glass that usually has grease spatters. The product also comes with rubber/vinyl heatproof gloves to use to remove the spits from the rotisserie after the food is done cooking. I think the original was built a bit better than this, but that's usually the case as years go on, companies design products to be made less expensively. Even with this being slightly less impressive than the original model, I will continue to use on a regular basis. If you like rotisserie chicken from Costco, imagine having the chicken come out JUST as juicy at home with your own concoction of rub ingredients!!

This thing is nice! Easier than my gas rotisserie as this is set and forget. First run we did a 3 pound rib roast. Hour and 15 mins later came out perfectly ! Nice crust outside and juicy inside .

I had the extra large one years and years ago. I gave it to my friend thinking I would buy another, turns out that big one is discontinued. But this is great even though it's a tad smaller. My favorite way to cook my turkey. Amazing results everytime.

I love this, BUT the "non-sick" rotisserie spit components and the heat shield are NOT easy to clean! I've tried washing by hand in very hot soapy water, washing in the dishwasher on regular setting, then "tough" setting with very, very hot water setting, scrubbing with Brillo pads...NOTHING gets rid of the oils and grease that have not burned onto the components. I am now having to try using oven cleaner and soaking in it for at least an hour. If the heat shield is made of aluminum, (which I'm guessing it is, since I cannot find anywhere that information), I can't even use oven cleaner on it to get it completely clean. I'd love to know why it's advertised as "easy cleaning" and non-stick components. Does anyone else have this issue? And if not, how in the HE** do you clean the parts sufficiently to feel like you won't eventually have to replace them from all the built-up gook??? UPDATE: After posing this question, one of the answers I received was to use Dawn Powerwash Spray, since that customer said it's what they use immediately after removing the chicken once it's cooked. Said it works like a charm. So I bought the Dawn Powerwash and will update again once I see if that works.

The oven is very well made and easy to clean, the design is carefully thought out and simple, instructions are clear and easy to follow. My first chicken was delicious — golden brown and juicy. I’m looking forward to trying other foods such as leg of lamb. I am an experienced cook and I appreciated how easy it was to cook a perfect chicken. I think it would be a great gift to a new cook or a busy person who needs to get meals on the table quickly. It’s almost fool proof.

This is awesome! Sharp looking, love the stainless steel. It's roomy and sturdy! Easy to clean. So versatile, it cooks chicken and rib eye perfectly and with ease!

Love this machine. Since getting this I have of course cooked whole chicken, but also beef roasts, boneless chicken thighs and chicken tenders. All have come out beautifully. One thing invest in a good meat thermometer it has made judging doneness much easier.

Ronco small rotisserie works well.

Very good, thank you. This works very well. Recommend.

The online advertisement didn’t mention that the appliance was US voltage specified. Kind of crazy considering that the item was being delivered to the UK. Because it’s a high power consumption rotisserie I had to spend £120 on a suitable transformer before I could use it. No negative comments about the appliance itself but I certainly wouldn’t have bought it if I had understood it was only suitable for US electric power.

Jag har använt rondo rotisseriet i Kanada i 20 år och var mer än nöjd med den. Tyvärr passar inte den här modellen och kopplar inte till svensk 220V och kontakt utan omvandlare. Den kommer från USA för 110v.

Haven’t used it yet but it will be perfect to cook a turkey
