NutriChef Convection Oven Cooker

Yes, it is designed as a multi-functional appliance. Because it uses a high-powered fan for convection cooking, it effectively mimics air frying by circulating hot air around food for a crispy texture, while also handling roasting and baking tasks typically reserved for larger ovens.

The unit features a transparent glass bowl, which allows you to see the cooking progress from all angles without needing to open the lid and release heat.

The height-extending insert increases the total capacity of the oven, allowing you to cook larger items like a whole chicken or a roast that might otherwise be too tall for the standard bowl configuration.

The glass bowl is durable and substantial, weighing in as part of the unit's 16.16 lb total weight. While it is easy to wipe down, it is a single large piece, so you will need to ensure you have enough sink space for cleaning.

Yes, because the cooking chamber is made of glass, the exterior will become hot while the unit is running. Always use the included tongs or oven mitts when handling the bowl or accessories, and ensure it is placed on a heat-resistant surface.

The rotary dials are straightforward and tactile, allowing you to set the temperature up to 480 ºF and the timer up to 60 minutes. While they are manual rather than digital, they provide reliable control for standard cooking tasks.
