a brick oven for the garden. Detailed plans and illustrations are provided, and further chapters describe how to fire and run such ovens, and give recipes for basic breads and pizzas.
Advantages: Don't know as did not work Disadvantages: Does not work and Customer Services are not good.
Firstly, I would not buy from this company ever again had such a nightmare I can tell you.
1. Ordered the oven. Asked and paid for next day delivery. which was to be delivered on the Wednesday.
2. Did not receive oven until 8.30pm on the Friday evening. Which if we were pensioners I would advise not to open the door after 6pm so this was not good at all.
Did give me a refund though on delivery charges and a hamper of 4 goods.
3. The hamper did not arrive until a week later - no packing inside the box, goods were just rolling around in it. Also there was no proper label on or postal code.
4. After receiving the oven on the Friday. The Saturday night we put a full chicken in and vegetables and it did not work - we were still cooking this chicken 5 hours later and we were starving. Had to have a frozen pizza instead ...
Advantages: good if you have a small kitchen Disadvantages: recipe book and instructions rubbish
I am quite impressed with this oven,instruction booklet not very informative and hardly any recipes.
As for cooking does oven chips very well,and fish also cooked a leg of lamb and pizza which turned out well.
Made a casserole carrots were very hard perhaps you should boil them first as recipe book is rubbish it is all just trial and error.
easy to clean one minor problem is that the power lead rests on the oven when cooking which might burn through if cooking for a long period.
I would like to add i have had this oven for only a week.
i will post more info as i go along,it is also very easy to clean,but very heavy to lift when a joint and all the trimmings are inside . ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of JML Halogen Oven
Advantages: Quicker cooking Disadvantages: The lid h
Well after a year of using a rubbish old electric cooker that would take nearly 45 minutes to heat the oven, this halogen oven was a miracle for me. My Dad bought me one for my birthday but it lay in my room for 2 month collecting dust. One day i decided to use it for a couple of chicken kievs and they turned out amazing, Absolutely perfect cooked all the way through. I havnt used my electric cooker ever since.
The halogen oven is so easy to use, 1 minute and its pre-heated. Just turn the dial to wot heat u want, set the time, fling your roast chicken in there and some vegetables and let it do the work. When the time that you set runs out the machine switches itself off and stops it from been
burnt to death if you forget about it. Also you can look in to see how its getting on without letting heat out. Its alot quicker than any normal ...

Manufacturer's product description
Today's bread lacks the taste of former times - partly due to the flour and the short time taken in making and maturing the dough but mainly because of the oven. Bread is cooked in hot air or steamed to death; it never has the chance to develop the crackling deep crust or capture that indefinable aroma of wheat that comes from making bread slowly and baking it in brick. In the ancient world ovens were invented solely for baking bread and the design materials and methods of firing of ovens still working in the Greek countryside - and those which stand ruined in village squares in the Dordogne - are essentially the same as those that baked bread for Julius Caesar. Written with the novice builder in mind this book describes the stages of construction of a brick oven for the garden with no fire hazards no major structural problems and no planning difficulties. Detailed plans and illustrations are provided. Further chapters describe how to fire and run such ovens and give recipes for basic breads and pizzas and there is an additional section on restoring and running old ovens thousands of which which survive in farmhouses across Britain.
