Do you know who carries the cheapest product? Appears that the advantage to

buying at Target would be not having to pay for shipping.

One of the reasons I haven't bought a convection oven is because I usual

follow recipes and it seems like the cooking time will mess up the end result.

How do you calculate for the difference in cooking times using a standard

recipe?

Thanks,

jafa

Hi Jafa:

Amazon carries the Supentown turbo oven and it is $59 + $19 for shipping as

it comes via an amazon partner.

Target's which is a slightly different model is about $89.

Dr. Mercola's which by the pictures looks like the Target model is $89.00

and there is shipping on top.

These oven packed up are about 20 lbs so shipping can be pricey.

When you are cooking with a convection oven, usually you need a cookbook to

help you re-estimate the timing. It really is easy peasy!

Thanks,

Do you mean a convection oven cookbook that says how to reestimate your

cooking time? Does a cookbook come with the oven?

My one experience with Sunpentown (admittedly with a completely

different piece of equipment) was horrendous, for whatever that's worth.

BTW, when posting, please delete extraneous backquoted materials from

Target's is $59 plus $9.99 S & H plus local tax.

I just got mine.

Mercola's with S & H was about $204 IIRC

Great. The one time I don't consult the group, I go out and this product

which I am waiting for right now and you are telling me its crap. I'll

return and get Mercola's...do you have any feedback on that one?

Jafa:

As you can read from my post to , I haven't tried out one of the turbo

convection oven, just purchased on and waiting for it arrive. So, I don't

know if a cookbook will come with this turbo convection oven. Yes, the

convection cookbook I have shows you the conversion from conventional oven

to convection oven cooking/backing and helps you adjust the times.

That said, I have a regular family size built in-oven that converts to

convection so I do have experience with convection cooking. It just seems a

waste to heat this size of oven when our cooking requires smaller

appliances.

Alice-

I think you must be mistaken. Mercola's oven is $84.95 plus

S*H. His S & H charges are definitely on the high side, but not THAT high! <g>
