Recently ordered one of these ovens from Amazon an have to admit it seems to be well built. This was a no brainer since I live in Arizona in the desert an as you all know sunshine is still free. Have not set it up yet since the desert monsoon season is in full swing here and to be honest just haven't set aside the time to mess with it. I have seen these working before at solar shows an I know they work well. Alternative energy is not the only answer but last year we set up a 9.3 kilowatt system from Solar City an it has been the best investment in our home. Our APS electric bills have dropped dramatically since the solar panels have been in use. We actually had 1 month we owed only $16 an our summer bills which were touching $400 a month during July an August have dropped to about $150 for those months. I still think leasing is a better option at this time for solar panel systems but if you feel you only need a 5kw system or smaller buying the system outright makes more sense. Living in the sunbelt states helps a lot too. I think within the next decade there will be a strong shift to alternative energy sources. They can save you a bit of dough $$ an whats not to like about that. The sun oven if your unfamiliar with them uses the green house effect in a insulated box to generate oven temperatures under the glass cover. Typical highs of 350-400 degrees F are possible with a clear sky an summer time. Northern latitudes an winter can still net 250-300 degrees F.
