A New Mug Machine?

[JSR]

Has anyone tried this one?



Mini Halogen Oven

A friend just bought this for her daughter (from a Radio Times offer of all things) and I got to sneak a peak before it was wrapped for Christmas.

It's not a desk-hogging mug machine that'll take 8 wraps with an extender bar and a prayer, it's a mini halogen oven that's so dinky it verges on the cute. Using the adjustable wrap you'd be lucky to get just one mug in there at a time.

I wondered if, being smaller, would it be both faster at cooking a mug than a regular halogen oven and more economical for doing a single mug given that there's less space to heat up? My current halogen oven (from JML) is particularly slow compared to everyone else's and that's the reason for the questions.

Anyone have any thoughts?

I've heard they are ok for about 4 mugs but with the extender people have had problems with the timings. Argos have them for about £46 and netto had them for £36 2 weeks ago.

Hi John

I know you can get four in a regular mug oven, but this is a mini oven. If you stand one mug in an adjustable wrap in the bowl, you'd be hard pushed to get a second one in.

There is no extender for this mini oven either, as that would defeat the point of it being a "mini" oven.

Thanks for the added info about the extender, though.
