Nesco 4805-12 5-Quart Electric Roaster with Nonstick Cookwell, Red Review

I am giving it three stars because of its poor quality.This unit is not up to the standards of my old 4-quart Nesco roaster oven.This unit is manufactured in China and the quality shows.I will start looking for appliances manufactured in Europe and pay the price for the quality.

WARNINGS:
1.The unit gets EXTREMELY hot even the control knob.
2.Do the initial burn-in outdoors.This unit smoked for 45 minutes giving off harsh smelling fumes. This unit will need a burn in time of hours because it still has a harsh smell when heated.I am wondering if the smell is not the internal parts melting
3.Do not leave this unit unattended when doing the burn-in or cooking.
4.DO NOT allow children near this unit.

Before cooking in the unit, I decided to test how accurate the dial temperature settings were.I used a Taylor analog oven thermometer and set the units temperature dial to 275 degrees.I allowed the unit to preheat as directed in the owner's manual.After the preheating time I removed the lid and discovered the internal temperature was 350 degrees.I confirmed the Taylor thermometer reading with a Fluke model 62 IR (infrared) digital thermometer.I will test the unit again at a different setting later this week.I will make notes in the owner's manual so that I do not ruin a meal because of inaccurate temperature dial listings.
