Overview
A 22 quart countertop roaster oven built to handle up to a 28 lb turkey, with full range oven-style temperature settings for baking, roasting, steaming and slow cooking. The enamel-on-steel pan lifts out with its rack for cleanup.
This is a second oven for holiday-size cooking, not a slow cooker replacement, though it can slow cook too. Reviewers repeatedly mention using it specifically to free up their main oven for side dishes at Thanksgiving. The lift-out pan and rack are the main convenience feature, letting the enamel-on-steel interior go straight to cleanup.
- 22 quart capacity, up to 28 lb turkey
- Full range oven-style temperature settings
- Bakes, roasts, steams and slow cooks
- Removable enamel-on-steel pan and rack
Who it's for
Suited to households that cook large turkeys or roasts, especially around holidays when oven space is tight. Less useful for someone who only cooks for one or two and rarely roasts anything sized for a crowd.
What buyers say

Multiple reviewers replaced older roasters, including one after 22 years of use, and found this one performed as well or better.
