I forgot to mention here but I finally gave in and bought one! And it's great! Cooks twice as fast as my house's oven, with better crisping even at low temperatures.

Better living through physics! :wave: I've got plans for it for tonight, will post photos.

The oven in action:

It's like a cross between an electric grill and a blast furnace. :D

Does the outside get really hot? It looks sort of bright too. But, tres cool.

@Fisher: yes, the outside gets quite hot. Cools down pretty fast once turned off though.

It is annoyingly bright TBH, the light is probably a migraine risk for me. So far I've supervised it from an adjacent room while it's running, so that I can minimize the light exposure but still be on hand if it starts smoking or something.

So, I am wondering if the halogen oven has survived and is still considered the uber baking device? :think:

It has not, sadly, but we now have a convection oven microwave which TBH is better in some ways. Less of a devil to clean for starters.
