Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Rival R80 8-Quart Roaster Oven

Customer Review: Love this roaster
Summary: 5 Stars

It's also great as a larger-size slow cooker -- soups and stews have turned out amazingly well, and I never get out my regular crock pot anymore. This one is nice because you can really adjust the heat, unlike crock pots that have only two settings.

I have used this roaster like a mini regular oven. The cooking rack is just the right size to fit a small oval casserole dish. (I have had to adjust casserole times slightly -- cook times take a little longer than in a conventional oven.) It is also good for roasting stuffed peppers or other vegetables. The booklet that comes with it tells you how to use it as a steamer for vegetables, too. I would have never thought of that.

The little window in the top is a nice feature. If you put a meat thermometer in your roast you can see when it has reached the desired temperature without opening the lid. Also, the machine has little metal hooks over the handles to hold your lid in place if you open it during the cooking process. This is a nice design feature since it keeps the open time minimal, and you don't have to put the lid down on another surface of your kitchen.

I like the clean lines of the design, too. It looks really nice on my old 30s white enameled range, but I could see it in any kitchen setting.

It is very easy to clean, since the entire cooking well is removable. The nonstick surface has been very durable for me, with no scratches or flaking.
