Advantages: esy to use and clean Disadvantages: heavy and have to use metal dishes. However you can get smaller versions in the Range!
Hi, I purchased my halogen oven through coopers of stotford. It is alsomst the same as JML.. same size etc but only £40. It is te coopers version and almost identicle! They also sell a lid stand and accessory pack including steaming tray, toast rack, frying tray and extension ring!
I use my hallogen oven all the time and hardly use my main now and again! The one thing that is a downside is that you can't put pyrex dishes in it to cook casseroles etc. The oven heats the dish but the pyrex absorbs all the heat and the food doesn't cook! You can get around this however by using metal dishes!!!
It also comes with a cooking guide
I think this is a brilliant device! You can get a smaller version including extension ring for the same price which we saw in the Range! Ideal for one person or someone who has problems lifting the hbowl ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of JML Halogen Oven
Advantages: Large glass bowl Disadvantages: Pick one!
Firstly I was very pleased with the oven, but very disapointed with the instruction manual, especially the cooking times. It really told me nothing! I think JML need to look into this and perhaps provide a cooking times chart, that actually gives you better instructions than;
Parsnips 2cm Strips and diameter @ 200oc for 36 Minutes
and Whole small onion @ 200oc 60 Minutes.
These instructions tell me nothing.
What makes more sence would be to include instructions for all veg and to include information about cooking in foil with a small amount of water (Seen in online advert only.)
Also my electric meter whilst cooking, seems to be cooking itself (Spun round like a washing machine, on its final spin!)
To cook a 1.55kg Chicken cost me 70p.
Not so economical, one of the main reasons for buying it, Oh well.
Having said ...
Advantages: Speedy, versatile and excellent results Disadvantages: Not available in the shops
Faster than a conventional oven, 360 degree visibility without having to open a door. Amazing how much room there is, it can cook a large item of poultry and vegetables. Reduces the cooking tilme with a powerful fan assisted halogen heat. Food doesn't dry out and everything we have tried in it tastes better than a micrwave and even a conventional oven. Add to that the fact that it's rack system manages to ensure that food is never left to cook in fat and there is a self clean facility that removes any stuck on crumbs or fat. Unlike a microwave it browns food. Considering the fact that it can roast, grill and bake all for less than £50 and there is no better value kitchen appliance. Only available from JML on-line or by TV adverts. If you buy 2 you save £20 !!
Ideal for a present. ...
