NuWave 20101 Report
NuWave 20101 Review by rmckim (Midwest US)
We've been using it for 18 weeks now (8/1/11), ~ once/day. All parts are washed in a DW, maybe once a week. Cooks slower than advertised. Cooks anything from frozen (vegetables, chicken, steaks, ribs) with superb results. Five stars absolutely. Why did I rate it two stars? It's flimsy, but not inexpensive. The dome is already cracked from the base flange upwards several inches, but still under warranty, so I'll replace it. But why did it crack? It's handled with great (really) care, like a good digital camera, but it still cracked... and the dome now looks mottled and dirty even coming out of the DW. I understand why the competing Superwave is made from glass... The Superwave (which I returned) is just too big, and the NuWave Mini is just too cheap IMHO.
Soooo, we'll replace the dome and continue using it. However, if you really look at it with a dispassionate eye, you'll probably agree that it's really just an inverted electric hotplate with a fan and a digital touch pad. I suspect that the manufacturing cost is around five bucks... maybe. It's just not worth its presently advertised price - to me even a $29.95 price point would be a bit high for the quality of this Mini model. There's just not that much to it. I also suspect that these Mini models are used much more frequently than the larger NuWave models. They're incredibly convenient. If that's true, the Mini needs to be more robust, unless a product cycle of 8-12 months is the goal.
NuWave 20101 Review by Sherry L. Lancaster "Sherry L. Lancaster" (Indianapolis)
This item was exactly as expected. My son has the larger one and kept telling me to give it a try so I bought the mini and it is perfect for one or two people. I love the fact that I can put the food in and go about my business and when it is done it turns itself off so I don't have to worry about over cooking and the next thing you know dinner is ready. Clean up is very simple and fast and the size of it lends well to my very, very small kitchen.
NuWave 20101 Review by Joni
This is a great item for one or two people. Purchased mine six months ago & use it almost every day. Takes a little getting used to, but I purchased a cookbook which helped tremendously. My favorite things in this oven are chicken breasts, boneless pork chops, & meatloaf. A great little oven!!
Just roasted a little 2# boneless beef roast. Rubbed with olive oil, sprinkled with seasoned salt, & roasted on power level 7. Roasted 30 minutes, turned over, & roasted until done. Well browned, moist & juicy, delicious!!

NuWave 20101:: Description
The Nuwave Mini Infrared Oven is designed to produce succulent meats, poultry, and fish. The NuWave quickly and easily cooks foods while keeping them moist on the inside, and crisp and browned on the outside with out using any fats or oils. Convenience and versatility comes from its small, light weight and portable size for use in RVs, dorms, boats or as an extra oven for big gatherings. Start the oven and watch the food sizzle and brown under the clear plastic dome. The safe infrared rays allow you to barbecue, roast, grill, bake, broil, dehydrate, steam and air fry.
Save up to 85% more energy by using 800 watts rather than conventional ovens' 3500 watts. No smoke is created so no ventilation system is needed. All parts, except the power head, are dishwasher safe and all oil splatters are self-contained. The polycarbonate dome is clear, lightweight, highly durable, while the stainless steel cooking rack is reversible for multiple uses. Easy to clean, the stainless steel liner pan base can also be used as a serving tray. The dome holder keeps the power head within reach while you prepare food. The Nuwave cooks most foods up to 50% faster than a conventional oven, without preheating or defrosting, for the best in flavor and taste.
