good for long slow steam cooking – One could say this is a piece of crap. BUT look at the price. It's small economical on bench space. My home one is used say 5 out of 7 days. I have a… Read more

second one in my van, no not an RV just a medium small liver. It's tiny size is a great boon.

For those complaining of alge in water tank, keep the light off it. Use a rag or put something square up against it.

Water in door?? Funny mine came with a flappy piece of paper informing that would happen, Try non steam roast setting 230°C set to any time you want and walk away. If you do this while it's still hot just a few minutes. Works excellently. (for that). I've done this every so often and it still sparkles. 3 years so far. Also helps the rust issue. Finally after a cook, leave the door ajar to first detent to help it dry.

It grills pretty good but one needs to juggle the rack height, Crazy stepped oven rack does not offer many choices as the height is dead center of the rails, meaning it's the same either way. -Dumb!

The timer is limited to 2 hours' If used for a 12 hour 60°C cook = pain, also one needs to empty the microscopic catch can about every 1/2hour never the less water still ends up on the bench. Yes the drain is clean and open. On this point I see that there is not many ovens that stream and heat (cook) at the same time. This one does. Puts it way ahead in my book.

The little book shows precious little technical uses. Have to learn by trial and error. Some issues. Internal rusting. flimsy racks. Odd size preventing one using a sturdier oven rack inside. I use a 9" square x 2" baking tray quite successfully.

For what it's worth ,we have install one of these in the kitchen of aged care to reheat prepared meals. 2 Years in and still OK. Sure beats nuking in the dreaded micro. Residents now actually eat the heated meals.

It's asian built just to offer a product range. I don't believe it was intended to //really// work or be used seriously. But it does so please don't tell them or it will be discontinued.

Any way what would I know , I'm just a bloke.

around when I’m trying to dial temperature and times. Local appliance repair man says it can’t be fixed. I expected it to work for years and that’s why I bought a quality product!

Wow, This is my first Toaster/Covection/ Steam Oven experience. I was looking for a healthy airfryer oven, no non stick coating and I was tossing up… Read more

between this and the Breville. The Breville seemed too long but the Cuisinart Gourmet Pro won my heart, it's just right in Size! I'm still on my L Plates using this but so far so good, toasts great, steams rice perfect. Made Muffins/cupcakes and cooked in about 10mins on convection WoW! Roast port crackling came out great too!(can never get this in out big electric oven) Love the outside that doesn't get too hot, neither does the door handle. Opening the door ajar first is a good tip especially when using any of the steam functions. Also made two small quiches cooked again on convection in 12min. Love the steam clean function, its takes approx 45mins, but I put this on whilst eating dinner, then wipe the oven out with a damp clean microfibre cloth, pretty easy! So far So Good, time will tell. **Even after purchasing a Faulty one and returning it after 2 days, I did get Great Customer Service from Harvey Norman Broadmeadows and Thomastown it was exchanged it without fuss. In completion, I do recommend this Cuisinart appliance so far, so good!
