Operating the Coopers Halogen Oven
As with all halogen ovens the Cooper oven is easy to operate. Unlike a conventional oven you do not have to wait until your oven heats up. Good if you are living alone as instead of using your oven you can make a small meal using your halogen oven. It has a pre wash facility but you then have to empty a heavy glass bowl of hot dirty water. It is much easier just to clean the empty bowl in the sink using hot water.
Performance of the Coopers Halogen Oven
This oven will cook a whole roast chicken and crispy dry potatoes in 35 minutes. it uses 50% of the electricity of a ordinary oven. The hot air is circulated evenly around the oven and as a result you do not have to keep on turning the food. It browns and crisps food just like an oven. Some users have commented that the fan is not powerful enough to distribute the heat evenly throughout the glass bowl.
Halogen Bulb Replacement
The Cooper Halogen oven does not come with a spare halogen bulb. In addition the bulb tends to blow fairly quickly.
