Sunpentown SO-2002 Digital Convection Oven with Nano-Carbon and FIR Heating Element Customer Review
If you read the reviews for all the NuWave Ovens here on Amazon and on other sites, you will see that at least 3/4 of them complain that the plastic cover cracks with normal use. This oven is made out of glass making that pretty much impossible. That, and the lower price (about 1/2 the cost of NuWave) is why I chose this brand instead. Also, I didn’t want all the “free” stuff that NuWave offers.
I am happy with that decision. This oven does what it claims to do and I’m not disappointed.
FYI, I use this for small portion cooking. 1 to 2 servings of boneless chicken breast. A 6-8 oz flank steak. A medium serving of white fish. 1-2 servings of vegetables, etc. I haven’t used it to cook larger items (such as whole chickens) yet, so I can only comment on how it cooks those smaller portions. It does this very well. Being a body builder, I eat a lot of lean protein per day. This oven gives me another option to go to when I’m tired of my BBQ grill or my flat iron (George Foreman type) counter top grill. I can easily throw a single serving of lean animal protein and some veggies on this and my meal will be ready in 15 – 20 min. Not as fast as the flat iron grill, but still pretty fast and more versatile. And more importantly, the food tastes good, although it is not cooked as evenly as I thought it might be. But this is not really a big deal. I just flip the meat half way through and that takes care of it.
For some, the size of this oven might be an issue. It’s pretty big, and if you have limited counter and storage space, you might want to reconsider purchasing this. Also, if you have low cabinets, it might be too tall to fit under them.
The only negative thing about this is the owners manual. It’s pretty bare bones (or should I say pathetic??). It doesn’t even have an accurate description of all the parts included. I am going to purchase a convection oven cookbook to learn more about how to cook with this oven and for more recipes. If you don’t have experience with this type of oven, I’d suggest the same.
