I like mine. I bought it new several years ago & it as of yet hasn't
broken.

It makes the *best* Rotisserie chicken, but I have learned to cover my
meat with foil (poked with holes for drainage) for the first 30 min &
then uncover. Otherwise the skin burns.

I didn't write about the reconditioned Ronco. Tina Marrie did. I asked the
question: "84% off??"

I have a rotisserie too. Not the Showtime, but another less expensive and
excellently performing rotisserie. Love it!! But I'm not sure I'd've paid
84% off regular price for it.

<there should be no need to cover your chicken with foil in your rotisserie,
btw. If the skin is burning in the first 30 minutes, your temperature
setting is too high>

It is a good price for a very good appliance, but it is not 84% off. You
can buy that new for $129 to $159 depending on the model. Amazon uses
unrealistic inflated retail prices.

I wonder if you've got a bad unit, Denise -- I haven't had that issue
with mine...

I have a George Foreman jobie. It has made me a rotisserie Chicken
Junkie. I like to do a largish chicken say a 6-7 lbs bird. I shove thin
lime slices under the skin all over. Gives the bird just a hint of lime
flavour. Lately if it isn't crockpotted it is spun.

When using a rotisserie what does the food do other than cook?...It
spins.

That's what it said. Anyway I was wanting to make sure that this purchase
wasn't a wasted one. I've gotten gadgets before that take up my precious
kitchen space that were more trouble than it was worth. Someone else wrote
me and said that they had very good luck with theirs as long as you clean it
right away.

I've got to check to see if the price is still good though.

Thank you for the reply, it has definately helped me. I hadn't thought of
the lime under the skin, sounds devine.
I am a fan of lemon pepper but lime..how refreshing!

May I ask, what is "spun"?

Rotisseried food does something else other than cook and spin, it does
something *extrememly important* that distinguishes rotisserie cooking
from ALL other forms of cooking, which of course embodies the *entire*
purpose of rotisseries, the food _continuously bastes itself_.

My 40+ year old hand me down Sunbeam Carousel has cooked countless
meals.

It is used at least a couple of times a month. It is easier to store
than those horizontal Rotisseries.
