That is they keep your kitchen and house cool while they deliver piping hot meals quickly and easily. This is accomplished by using a combination of conduction, convection and infrared. Thay are also cool to use because they are so efficient and fun to use.

Most require no preheating.
Many foods take less time to cook than other cooking methods.
