This new way of cooking turkey and other meats is ideal for saving time in the kitchen, offering the user a faster alternative to the oven. This upright roaster is perfect to have around during the holidays or any time of year as it offers the versatility every home chef needs. Innovative Roast-Ryte™ Technology uses infrared heating elements to evenly cook a turkey. The center heating element cooks from the inside out as the outer heating elements rotate heat around the turkey, maintaining the moisture on the inside while searing the skin to a golden-brown on the outside. This oil-free, easy-to-use vertical roaster can cook up to an 18-lb. bird in less than two hours, reducing cooking times by up to 40% versus a conventional oven. You’ll never have to worry about overcooking your bird, as the easy-to-read control panel has a digital timer as well as a preprogrammed 120-minute turkey setting with auto-off function. Illuminated lights indicate when the heating elements are on and cycling and the glass cover allows for convenient viewing during use without removing the lid and letting heat escape. Removable and dish washer safe, the cooking stand drip tray collects all unwanted turkey drippings and the interior surface is nonstick making clean-up quick. This upright roaster is lightweight and includes side handles for safe and comfortable handling. The black and stainless steel finish will accent any kitchen décor and the compact design leaves countertops uncluttered. The NESCO Upright Turkey Roaster is Your Key Ingredient™ to the most convenient and mess-free way to cook poultry and meat, allowing you to cook comfortably and enjoy more time with your family outside of the kitchen.

This cooker is easy to operate. The instructions are simple and clear. Our turkey has cooked perfectly every time to a golden brown, tender and juicy. Place the turkey or roast on the center probe, turn on the roaster and check the meat temperature in about an hour. Ours usually takes 2 hours or slightly less. This is so helpful during holiday celebrations to have access to cook other foods in our ovens while the turkey cooks. Highly recommend.

Finally can make a Turkey perfectly. I have made several chicken and turkey dinners all perfectly cooked.

Bought this in 2020, have done about six turkeys and they all come out perfect. My wife bought a couple that were 20-22 lbs but they still work, you just have to increase the heat time, 6 min/lb. I always leave mine in for a little longer than recommended just to make sure they're done, but they have all come out moist and delicious. I do it on porch and clean up the next day. Keeps inside ovens free for all the other stuff we have to make.

It was defective. Also the build quality is very poor. I returned it for a refund. Additionally, the appliance is huge and hard to lift.

I bought this vertical roaster mostly for TG turkey. For years I've roasted my bird in an 18qt electric roaster because roasting it in the oven was always a desiccated disaster. The bird comes out wonderfully moist and tender in the roaster but the skin is a dismal grey. I missed the golden crisp skin of an oven roasted bird. Stumbled across the Nesco vertical roaster and was intrigued. I read numerous positive reviews and decided to give it a try. I performed the burn off per the instructions. I roasted my 14.7lb TG turkey per the roasting instructions that came with the Nesco roaster. It turned out beautifully brown but a little over done. As with any new appliance there is a bit of a learning curve. Next time around I will cut the time back to 5 mins/lb. Can't wait to try it with a roasting chicken! Took one star off due to the finicky nature of the on/off switch. The switch is actually a little below the indicated location on the touch pad so you have to fiddle with it a bit to turn on the roaster.

This product does a good job of cooking a turkey. However, It's somewhat slower than the manual implies meaning It doesn't do a much better job than a convection range. It's absolutely no match for a deep fryer (even accounting for the oil heat time)It's also quite cheaply made, thin metal, cheap plastics etc. My unit made a massive squeak every time you removed the basket (it was scraping on the heating element). Finally the cord is quite short.I say skip it, or wait for a higher end model.

I have had an 18-quart Nesco electric roaster for years and had no desire for another appliance in my kitchen. I also have a vertical rotisserie, but it's too small to fit a turkey. This is the perfect size. It will fit up to an 18-pound, and I usually get a 12-15 pound bird.To test it, I roasted a chicken. The owners manual said 8 minutes per pound for a whole chicken. My chicken was 5.15 pounds so 45 minutes was spot on.I was surprised at how easy it was to clean. After I cleaned it, I put it up on a shelf and will use it a lot, especially for poultry.When I think about how much time this saves vs a conventional oven, and time is money, I'm very pleased with its cost and performance. Imagine, 6 minutes per pound for an 18 pound turkey is 108 minutes (1 hour 43 minutes) vs 270 minutes (4 hours 30 minutes ) for a conventional oven. That's three hours of energy being used. Yes, highly recommended
