Product ReviewsRonco ST5000PLGEN Showtime Rotisserie Oven - Silver

Use this at least 3 times a week

Years ago I had one of these and I hated it. Hard to clean, not worth the effort to cook I it. Never would have bought one, but had dinner at my son and DIL and she cooked the roast in one of these. Next day I bought one and it is my favorite appliance. Everything w cook in it, chicken thighs, hamburgers, roasts, spare ribs are excellent. My daughter, who doesn't like spareribs had thirds!! It is a breeze to clean. I love this. Only complaint is that it is too small to feed my family of six big-eating adults. I think I m going to buy another one I like it that much. Also, I wish it had a mesh vegetable basket so I could grill small veggies like asparagusRead full review...

Needs temperature control.

I really like the product BUT I tried to make a chicken and I was disappointed. The outside was almost burnt and in my opinion the inside needed to be cooked longer. I really wanted to love this machine, I wanted to get one for yrs. I may see about making a reostat to control the power but you shouldn't have to if it was built right. I don't see how anyone can cook a 12 pound turkey in this. It needs temperature control and it would be a great product. Read full review...

I would've paid double from what he asked for it

I had one before and they don't make them anymore and it lasted 15 years is one of the best rotisseries in the world for cooking. I got this for a fantastic price and it's brand new it's never been used. I had the trays, it was like the one I had but mine had electric timer and it was digital but it's worth every penny and it's immaculate and brand new for what I paid for the price it was a dealRead full review...

Fast , efficient and best of all free shipping...!

After a dozen years, our first Ronco unit failed. You can't beat this unit for simplicity to use, type in the time and go . The time cooking based on weight allows the freedom to cook many types of meat with the wildest of spices and imagination.
Just set it and forget it, they say, absolute truth, once you load it. The rotisserie option , eliminate 's the greasy bath a standard oven produces when cooking in your standard oven. A easy to read manual and cook book comes with the many accessories. Enjoy cooking meat like you never did before !Read full review...

You know you want one

I love this machine. I can roast vegetables or shrimp, well I can even do fish fillets or fish nuggets etc. Most of all, juicy chicken and even ribs. Everything can go right in the dishwasher which makes for easy clean up. If you have been considering one of these, don't consider any more.

I bought my first one when they came out years ago and just replaced it only because I was unaware the shield in the back came out. Also glad to see they changed from individual skewers to a bbq rack wheel. The skewers are so nasty and really enjoy the bbq rack wheel.

I really can not save enough about this because the drippings go to the bottom and you can easily use them to make gravy. Watching out for fat, well you can see it in the tray below. Don't resist any longer plus I received it just as described in time and free shipping.Read full review...

Awesome!

Love this rotisserie!! Makes me look like a better cook then I am! Cook my Thanksgiving turkey in it and the bird comes out perfectly browned and moist. Cook prime rib better then the restaurants!! The old commercials say "fix it and forget it" and that's exactly what I do. Love my Ronco!!Read full review...

Roasted Chicken Has Never Been Better

When my boyfriend decided to impress me by gifting me with the Ronco Showtime Rotisserie, I had my questions. Would it really live up to his representations? It does! It creates the most delicious, healthy, succulent chicken I could imagine. He won me over (in more ways than one)!Read full review...

Get it, don’t forget it

This is a replacement for an identical model that I owned for years the rotisserie is fantastic. Easy to use. Pretty easy to take care of. Food cooks easily and if you follow the guide, pretty accurate cooking times. The model I just got did not come with any accessories, but I was able to cannibalize parts from my broken unit. I love this rotisserieRead full review...
