NESCO ITR-01-13, Digital Infrared Upright Turkey Roaster, Oil Free, 1425 Watts, Black

The roaster works very well. Roasted large chicken and it turned our perfect. The picture is of the weld that came apart from base of stand. I will call the company for replacement.Nesco does not have a replacement. Suggested I try after the first of the year. Roasted a 15lb turkey in 90 minutes. It was great for Thanksgiving.

Used this for thanksgivings cooked a turkey in it and it came out so moist and tender. Under 2hr cooking time.

Cooked an 18lb bird in 3hrs.

Four stars because, it needs tabs to keep the turkey holder from sliding off the stand and all users need to watch the drip pan when cooking if the dripping level is highit hard to remove the turkey with out spilling drippings.

I am the best cook in the family,but I am no chef. On the holidays I make and cater the hole family feast, an the turkey is often the tricky part. THIS WORKS AS ADVERTISED! I made an 18 lb perfect turkey in 1 hr 47 minutes. SWEET!Important note : Use a leave in thermometer inserted in the turkey breast (one with an achieved temperature alert is best) in case you set the timer to long.Also important is that the drippings catch tray collects plenty of juices for making fabulous gravy, just be sure to have a large open pot or bole to pour it in to. Keep a steady hand when removing the drippings tray and go slow as the drippings are very hot and the tray tips easily.Preparation is everything with this appliance, once you push the button and cover this don't touch it until it is done !If you were like me you will need to figure out a way to make the stuffing outside the turkey.; A hack I found is that if you are using a frozen turkey sealed in a plastic bag, cut open the bag so that it drains in to a large pot or bole. The liquid is just a mix of blood and water. Use this liquid in your stuffing recipe to add the turkey flavor and then bake or prepare it as usual.Drawbacks :It's really big! As they suggest "KEEP THE BOX AND FOAM PACKAGING" for storage. It is not something you will be leaving out year round on the kitchen counter.

I saw this advertised and thought it a great idea for those who may have a small kitchen. Bought it last year and it worked great last Thanksgiving and Christmas. This Thanksgiving, however, it died while roasting a turkey breast. While I don't know what caused it to die, I would have expected it to last a bit longer than one year. If you plan on getting one, be aware that there are only TWO temp settings: high (about 500 degrees F), and low (about 275-300 degrees F). You cannot adjust the temp settings as on other devices. Also, since it is an upright roaster, the fat and juices will run off to the bottom of the drip pan, which is somewhat awkward to remove and empty without spilling.

It worked as expected. Bonus points: no propane or peanut oil needed. My turkey came out beautiful and juicy. I just had to cook it an additional 15 minutes. The only thing I did not like was trying to remove the drip pan. Next time I will use a turkey baster to remove some liquid so it doesn't spill. Also, this could be due to the fact I injected my bird.

This roaster works great. I used it for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I cannot speak to the longevit, but it's easy to use, cooks a turkey much quicker than any other roaster I've owned, and the turkey turned out great. It's also very easy to clean.
