I cooked some chicken thighs last night in the thing-a-ma-bob. It was okay. These things would probably work better for folks that like to bake/roast small quantities of food with little or no oil. It's quiet in operation and has digital readouts so you can probably get consistent results once you get a hang of timing and temperatures. My chicken got scorched at the top because of the close proximity to heating element i.e., there's too much radiant heat being given off.

In my case, I'm a fan of frying and like to use a lot of oil when cooking so there's not much of an appeal for me here. Some folks might enjoy using it but as far as I can see, it's not doing anything that can't be done in a good convection toaster oven.
