Our local grocery store has whole rotisserie chickens for $5.99 every day. I'd rather do that than clean and store another appliance.

I use a large crock pot to cook whole chickens. Just rub the chicken with whatever you like, place on top of potatoes that are wrapped in foil and cook for hours. Delicious.

We have a Showtime and love it. We don't use it real often, but everything we've ever cooked in it was fantastic. Clean-up a lil hassle, but really not that bad. We line the drip pan with foil and this helps. We always cook our turkeys in this. It'll hold up to about 14 lb. Absolutely THE BEST turkey you will ever eat. You have to inject turkey the day before and store in frig. OMG, can't wait til Thanksgiving!

I have a Ronco Jr. and we love it. I have cooked chicken and pork roast in mine and was very happy with the results. I agree they are a pain to clean, but Awesome cleaner makes it a lot easier. :thumbup:

I have the "set it and forget it"..I use it a lot. Actually, I think it is time for a new one..she is looking a little rough. My daughter is always handing me a oven stuffer roaster to make for her. I have made prime rib in it and fish, even ribs. Love it! I like kitchen gadgets!

I had the one set and forget I gave it to my son. TOO big for the counter and man a buger bear to clean It's cheaper to bake it in the oven or buy one all ready baked at the grocery store. I hated spending an hour to clean it after using it.

I have the Ron co, love it, I have never gotten that same taste cooking any other way. Made a cover for it and it sets on the counter top. Would buy again. I line it with foil for easy cleaning.

I have the Showtime, gifted to me by my sister. I use it a lot. We love wings and they cook up in no time. Throw everything in dishwasher and wipe off the outside glass. Before I would buy a new one I would shop the Goodwill or Thrift store.
