Best thing since sliced bread.
My husband bought me one of these 3 years ago after our first one died. It lasted several years and was the original model. In fact we are now looking for our 3rd one. We use it for cooking all of our meats, and the heating elements have died. I especially love how chicken comes out juicy, tender and beautifully brown on the outside. Steaks cook perfectly and hams are juicy and flavorable. I can not recommend this enough. I also love the digital settings instead of the dial timer. I have compared to other manufacturers and stick with this one for best value, service and ease of use.

I can cook finally!
Only had it three weeks but it's worked perfectly. Bought it in a hurry with guests coming for thanksgiving and had a broken oven. Cooked a large rib roast perfectly. We raved and feasted for days. Has cooked everything just amazing. The meat thermometer is very accurate, I have learned to trust it unlike my old one...
No weak parts that I have seen. Very pleased, although I am eating mroe meat than I used to now.....

Ronco Platinum hits it out of the park
I have always been somewhat skeptical of the Ronco Rotisserie , and I must admit that I associated it with the quality of products generally found on those pre-paid informational programs that populate the nether world of late nite or early morning television. Having said that, I knew that I wanted a Rotisserie Oven, so I set forth to find the best. I did extensive research on the internet , read as many consumer reports and testimonials , and just plain recomendations of the people who had them.
I must admit , and much to my suprise that the Ronco Platinum was so far ahead of the competiton that I said , oh well , all these people can't be wrong.
I took a deep breath and ordered one from Amazon.com.
Upon reciept, I was immediately impressed with the build quality. I couldn't wait to function test it. It seems to me that the chicken is the ultimate test, so I selected a whole roast chicken for my maiden voyage......Superb, Crusty skin, succulent juicy meat. fall off the bones tenderness.
Test #2 I am a meat-cutter by trade with 44 years in the buisiness and I consider myself a pretty decent cook. My next victim for the Ronco was a butt half of a fresh ham which I boned out and rolled . It came out so good that it beat out the 27 lb. turkey that I placed beside it on our Thanksgiving Table. No pork roast leftovers!!
In summation < I have a very pricey electric convection oven which does a very nice job.............but, the Ronco beats it hands down on Whole chickens and roast pork!! I have yet to try a Roast of Beef , but that is comming up soon..
Jeff Stark.........Master Butcher.... Pretty Damn Good Cook
