I was first introduced to the NuWave oven by my sister's boyfriend's grandfather. His grandfather needed to get rid of a lot of personal items because he was moving into an old folks home because he could no longer take care of himself. So we put his NuWave oven to use by cooking a lot of different things in it. Being a person who doesn't trust much infomercials I was skeptical at how well the NuWave oven works at first. I even saw the local news reporting on how quickly the NuWave oven makes meals but was still skeptical till I used it myself. I found that it cooked most meals pretty well and you really didn't have to watch it. You just set the cooking time and leave and come back when it's finished. I was so impressed by this that I bought one myself and used it at my apartment going to college. This thing was a life saver because I wouldn't have time to get food ready because I worked, had to do school work, and had to get ready for school. Which gives me absolutely little time to prepare food. It works well if you don't have a lot of time on your hands.
I cooked chicken thighs/legs/quarters/drumsticks, pork steaks, beef steaks, pork loins, pork chops, pork ribs, linguica sausage, smoke sausage, bratwurst, pizza (frozen and home made), frozen burritos, sasauge links, muffins, spam, vienna sausages, tater tots, salmon, tilapia, and practically anything you could think of in it. Most of the time it came out pretty good. Just make sure you turn it over because sometimes the other side of the food is unevenly cooked. It's very good for reheating certain types of food though.
Pros:
Saved time
Very convenient
Little effort
Didn't have to constantly monitor it
Easy to clean
Cons:
Sometimes the food was cooked unevenly because there is only one heat source
The dome eventually cracks and breaks (no one tells you this)
NuWave doesn't offer any replacement parts
It will not replace certain microwave items or the need to deep fry certain things
Cooking fatty foods will make it explode oil all over your plastic dome
The dome eventually gets stained and is difficult to remove
They don't offer a glass dome
*TIPS*
Always make sure you flip your food so it cooks evenly
Follow the suggested temperature power setting for the food you are cooking
Make sure you line the pan with aluminum foil so you don't have to scrub the pan
The plastic dome will slowly crack, I wish they would offer it with a heavy duty glass dome but it would cost them too much money to send you a NuWave with a glass dome. I guarantee the dome will crack first before the heating element will give out on your NuWave. But after 8 months of usage, the dome is cracked. I used this thing daily but it will not replace the need to fry chicken in a deep fryer or the convenience of microwaving food in a microwave safe container. I am now outsourcing to a glass blower who will manufacture me a replacement dome.

Without using any fats or oils, this digital-controlled infrared tabletop oven quickly and easily cooks meat, poultry, and fish, while keeping them moist on the inside and crisp and browned on the outside. Compared to a 3500-watt conventional oven, the 1500-watt infrared oven cooks food up to 50-percent faster and saves 85-percent more energy. Its patented trio of cooking methods includes conduction to apply heat directly to food, convection to circulate heat around food, and infrared radiant heat to penetrate food, cooking from the inside out. The unit's triple cooking methods allow for barbecuing, roasting, air frying, broiling, baking, steaming, dehydrating, and grilling, all without pre-heating or defrosting or the need for ventilation. Start the oven and watch food sizzle and brown under the clear, lightweight, highly durable polycarbonate dome. All oil splatters are self-contained, and the unit's base can be used as a serving tray. The exceptionally versatile oven offers a lightweight, portable design, which makes it a nice choice for use in a dorm or RV, on a boat, or simply as an extra oven when gathering with friends and family. All parts, except the powerhead, clean up easily by hand or in the dishwasher. Accessories include an extender ring, a reversible stainless-steel cooking rack, and a micro ceramic baking pan. An owner's manual and recipes are also included. The infrared oven measures approximately 14 by 14 by 16 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
