A month into using it - so far, so good!
I chose this rotisserie, because the positive reviews on it outnumbered the negative ones by far. In addition, my brother-in-law has one and has only good to say about it. So far we've only cooked chickens in it, and they have turned out wonderful. We use aluminum foil behind the elements and on the tray, so clean up is easy. There were only wisps of smoke periodically that came out of the vents, and that was probably due to fat popping onto the elements. The unit was fairly quiet, comparable to our Sunbeam that we loved and used almost every week for over six years. We have yet to try the kabob rods, but are looking forward to it.
Now, about the other accessories. First the bad. The rubber gloves, injector and thermometer are very cheap and serve no useful purpose. The gloves stink even after washing them, the liquid injector constantly falls apart, and the thermometer has a short lifespan.
Now the good. The rest of the accessories show promise. The solid flavor...
Love this Rotisserie
Ronco ST5000PLGEN Showtime Rotisserie Platinum Edition
I have had my Showtime for 10 years and it still works as good as on the first day. I cook chicken, ribs, vegetables and kobobs in mine and I am still amazed every time on how good the food turns out. All the grease drains from the food so it is healthy cooking at it's best. Every year I cook a 12 lb turkey in it and it is just the best. I can't say enough about it. No temperature to control, just turn it on for the time specified and forget it. Love, Love, Love it!!
Ronco Standard Rotisserie
The rotisserie works just as advertised, but the size is much smaller than the ad leads you to believe.
There is no way you can put 2 5lb. chickens in at once. I should have sent it back and ordered the next
size up. It's worth the money to go bigger.
