Cadco POV-013 Commercial Half Size Convection Oven

Buy Cadco POV-013 Commercial Half Size Convection Oven
==================================================================

Half Size Commercial Convection Oven
  • Accommodates up to 3 half size sheet pans (1 commercial sheet pan included)
  • Advanced airflow design with patented baffle
  • Heat settings from 175 - 500 degree F and 60 minute timer
  • Heavy duty stainless construction
  • Cool-touch safety door is removable for easy cleaning

This Convection Ovens give to us some advantages, like this :
1. No on/off switch - fan runs until spring timer unwinds by itself
No switch to turn spring-loaded timer off - cannot be freely turned. Must wait for timer to "wind out" its time, before fan will stop. Thermostat can be off but fan will still run.

It's not like I don't do the research. I called Cadco home office back east and a "technician" told me you can shut off the timer any time you want. He lied (or made a mistake.)

These are special order items in bricks and mortar equipment stores in my area. They have them in catalogs, but nobody stocks one to look at. If you order one, and don't like it, it is not returnable. You are stuck with it. - Thank you, Amazon. I almost did that.

An Italian company makes it, but does not say anything about design, manufacture or assembly country of origin, not of the whole item, or any part.

It is noisy, but I am not familiar with other countertop convection ovens. Maybe they are all that way (or worse.)

The shelf gratings inside tilt herrendously when slid out...

2. Great Counter Top Oven
Have had this oven for about 1 year - used 5 nights a week in my kitchen to prepare appetizers with a baked entree or two thrown in at times when busy.
Operates perfectly. Cooks fast. Cleans easily.
Very pleased.
We often prepare pans of cupcakes and cookies - they come out perfectly. Better that my larger ovens.

Need more appointment... ?
Superb oven, quality all around!!
After seeing that Costco uses Cadco ovens at their food sample stations, we retired our 'premium' Breville toaster oven and upgraded to this unit. We bake a lot, so quality, durability and safety matter to us. Compared to the premium toaster ovens, the Cadco has many benefits that make it worth its higher price:

(1) It has a good layer of insulation around the oven cavity, and double glass on the door. As a result the exterior doesn't get dangerously hot. This is a major plus for safety.

(2) The insulation helps the Cadco retain heat better, so it uses significantly less electricity. In our area electricity is very expensive, so this is a major advantage.

(3) The interior of the unit is smooth and lined with stainless steel. It's easy to clean, and heating elements are hidden so grease and oil from foods can't fall on them.

(4) The Cadco has a powerful convection fan, so the oven cavity is at a uniform temperature. This means one can fill up...
