Purchased a used Motorhome with this oven and the turn table stops turning in the middle of the cycle when using the convection oven? Can you help?

Are you sure that the rotating part has not slipped slightly when you placed the food on the tray? Sometimes we have the problem and find that the tray slipped a hair and then from the weight of the food, it slipped enough to stop completely or rubs on the side of the appliance. Was cooking a chicken in a bag (in half-time) and the bag got so heavy with juice that it hit the side of the appliance and stopped completely. My wife loves the half-time. Does not use the regular oven at all anymore.

Hi back, sorry about the problems you are having - it sounds bad. I have not had that happen with my machine, so I expect there is a problem with yours. The over heating is worrisome, and that kind of thing has lead to fires in other appliances, so I strongly recommend you return it for a replacement! Best of luck to you. Just read other comments and it sounds like others have had that problem. I only make 1 loaf a week, so have not had to let mine cool down before making another loaf.

We are not having that problem, but then again we normally only one of the two ovens and hardly ever use both at the same time. I would think when using both then that may alter the temps due to the voltage being pulled. Wiring may not be thick enough to handle the voltage draw. Sorry I couldn't give you a (for sure) answer.

Hi R.L., This unit is a very good microwave oven, but does not have the convection feature [we have a 2nd microwave, from Dacor, that has this feature. The convection feature would be labeled on the operation panel if it was built in to this unit; I did extensive research on this Panasonic before my purchase to verify that it was not a convection oven]. As far as using anything with aluminum, the owners manual states that you may only use small strips of foil to mold around thin parts of meat or poultry to prevent overcooking, with a chance for arcing if the foil is too close to the oven wall. Using this info, I would have to say no to your question about using a 9x13 disposable pan. Hope this helps.

My turntable is working ok. With my current Panasonic oven the turntable coupling in the base of the oven only has one prong. The coupling in the earlier Panasonic oven it replaced had three prongs. You should look closely at your coupling to make sure it is not damaged, especially if it only has one prong.

Mine worked fine until I turned the oven cleaner on. Didn't work afterwards.Appeared to have burned out. Says on packing fine for conventional ovens, however, I'm looking for something else.

Sorry, I don't. I just installed this but it is supposed to convert bake times and temperatures to suit a convection oven. Still have to see.

Hi,I am in seach of a good countertop oven to use mostly for the rotisserie feature and for meat, pork and not chicken - most reviews focus on baking and chicken. Would you have any specific suggestions or just features/ qualities that I need to look for? I take it that convection would be big deal here. I see a lot of complaints about how flimsy the applicances look and the external heating... Any help will be appreciated, thanks!

I noticed that it caused my cabinet to separate, which means there is a lot of heat generated from the top, so I moved it out from underneat the cabinet and it's fine. I have a granite counter top so it's ok on that.I love the oven!!

Mine is doing the same thing but it's under warrenty and I have sent it back twice now to be fixed , I got it back this past Friday and it still doesn't work they said they replaced the top housing where the flappers open and shut on top they allow it to go forward and reverse. This must be a big problem ugh

Ours turns at about (almost exactly) 4-3/4 revolutions per minute. We are very pleased with the performance of this oven so I guess that's a fast enough turntable rate. If yours is slower, then you may want to pursue further action. Hope this helps.

In some cases when the toaster oven is new, it can be tough to turn. In time and with use, it will become easier to turn. For now please make sure that your hands are not damp. If the problem continues please contact Oster direct for troubleshooting

I remove the racks. When baking you use the racks just like you would in your oven, except because it is convection you can bake on both racks at the same time. Baking is done on the racks (Think like it's an oven, you would not bake on the oven floor). The turn table can be turned off so it does not rotate. What is nice about the turn table is it does not need to be changed (or removed) because it works on Micro or Convection: It is ceramic. You can't go wrong with this one. Lots of room in it & turn table bigger the others (the size of a large pizza). Do some more research on how to cook & Bake in a Convection Oven (this is just one fast reference; http://www.cadco-ltd.com/convectioncook.html) The unit does come with a recipe booklet too. I personal LOVE convection & use it only. It took a while to learn how to convert & get the best results but well worth it. I now use it 80% of the time. Any other question or if you'd like more info on cooking/baking with convection I'll be glad to help.

I have only owned this one for a month, but I have owned a convection oven for 20 years. I have not had an experience of a burned out bulb. Should that happen, they have a website. I would contact the company @ Customercare@thesecura.com. I have and do enjoy using it. So, use it and if you are apprehensive about it, I would send it back. I don't know of a way to care for it. Except to use it according to the instructions and keep it cleaned after every use. (meaning washing and wiping down the inside of the top for grease build up.) Enjoy!

I've had mine since December. LOVE IT! I love the fast bake feature and the convection oven works wonderfully! Especially nice when I don't want to heat up the entire kitchen! Follow the directions for the install, and enjoy it!

Something must be wrong with the bottom heating element. When I first got mine, the bottom came out burnt and the top was not baked.I modded it so that I can turn the bottom element off after baking 45 sec. Leave the top on for a total of 3 Min.
