Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Waring CO900 .9-Cubic-Foot-Capacity Convection Oven
Customer Review: Best of both worlds
Summary: 4 Stars
Here is my update: I still love this oven and it still works great. I don't understand why I rated it only 4 stars, I think that is a typo. I posted that first review in November of 2006. It has been countless holidays and countless parties since - and it's still working great. It's really a 5 star product. See what I wrote below and know it's all still true, and has stood the test of time.
There seem to be two varieties of convection oven: super cheap and super expensive. This oven seems to bridge the gap. Look, I'm a pretty good cook and I can't stand "toys" in the kitchen. I needed a decent oven as back-up for when I have lots of people over (that's pretty often). I wish I had two wall ovens, but I don't. The Cadco looks GREAT, doesn't it? But I'm not a caterer and I don't need a great portable oven. And it's about $800 for the 1.5 cubic foot model. Not to mention that the Cadco 0.9 cubic feet and the 1.5 cubic feet seem (at least to me) to be equally powered at 1700 watts despite very different sizes. And the Waring is 1700 watts. All of this sounds like why I "settled" for the Waring.
But the truth is that the Waring is darn good for the money. The temp setting matches what I read on my digital oven thermometer and it's consistent. Maybe that fan should run all the time, but I like what the other reviewer said about not drying the food out with a constant fan. And, the food came out fine, right on time, and evenly cooked amongst all the pans throughout the oven. I started out easy - 3 big pans of scalloped potatoes: easy and perfect results. The baked goods are just as good. So are the meats. Would I do it again? You bet. Before I spend $800+ on a 1.5 cubic foot oven, I'd upgrade my kitchen oven and move this one into the basement so I'd have two "real" stoves. In the meanwhile, I am perfectly happy with the Waring.
