This premium convection oven features Quartz Heat Technology, which delivers 40% more even heat* for consistent crisping and even browning, and preheats quicker* to save you time.

A countertop oven is much smaller and can be easily moved around. It's the perfect size for single dish meals or techniques like toasting, thawing and crisping. Some countertop ovens offer a range of specialized functions, making them as versatile as their full-sized counterparts.

A countertop oven is a small, self-contained cooking unit that can be placed on a kitchen countertop or tabletop. It is a type of convection oven and is typically used for baking or broiling. Countertop ovens are also known as toaster ovens, microwave ovens, or combination microwaves.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE ALWAYS unplug the oven, and allow it to cool before cleaning. To clean exterior of oven, wipe with a damp cloth. DO NOT IMMERSE IN WATER. Make sure to only use mild, soapy water.

Quartz heating is a type of radiant heating, commonly referred to as short-wave infrared heating. Radiant heating uses infrared waves to directly heat the surfaces of objects. All objects emit and absorb infrared heat, which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum with a frequency below visible light.

Quartz heaters work on the principle of radiation of heat, uses infrared rays to radiate the heat to the surrounding area. The energy efficient heater has twin quartz tube for direct heating and a heating indicator along with a safety tip over switch to cut off power, giving the best choice of use.

The enclosed environment of an oven allows heat to fully penetrate the food, cooking it thoroughly without burning or overcooking it. This oven feature helps make the food taste richer as the heat increases the flavor. The food also has a better texture since it is neither dry nor soggy.

Toaster ovens cook food much like traditional ovens, heating electric coils to cook and brown, crisp or caramelize foods from the outside in. Rather than heated coils, microwaves generate electromagnetic waves that bounce off the interior walls, penetrate food and cause water and fat molecules to vibrate.

Smart ovens are multifunctional cooking devices that can heat food in many different ways. Whereas a toaster oven may be able to bake and broil, a smart oven may also feature convection-based heating, microwaving, or other techniques specific to certain kinds of foods.

Yes. Calphalon nonstick cookware and covers are oven safe. However, nonstick cookware is NOT safe for use in the broiler. Locate your specific cookware line below to see at what temperature it is oven and/or broiler safe.

Calphalon Unison Nonstick cookware is oven safe to 500°F / 260°C. However, it is NOT safe for use under the broiler, or if temperatures exceed 500°F / 260°C.

The heater consists of a helically wound resistance wire coil enclosed in a pure vitreous silica fused quartz tube with a translucent (semi-opaque) surface.

Electric quartz heaters consume less energy than ceramic heaters to produce the same results. Because quartz heaters directly transmit the energy and do not rely on convection heating, they are better than ceramic heaters at targeting their heat to specific areas.

Quartz heaters contain some of the most efficient types of heating elements available. They convert 100% of the electrical energy used into heat. The many advantages that quartz heater offer for businesses include: Even heat distribution: Quartz infrared rays heat the objects directly.

Advantages of Hot Air Ovens It can work at a higher temperature than autoclave and is faster. It kills the bacterial endotoxins. It's the only method to sterilize oils and powders. It's economical and safe.
