Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Who needs all that extra fat anyway? With the rotisserie cooking methond, fat drips off and food is evenly exposed to moist heat. The result is tender, flavorful food that tastes better and is better for you. What's not to love?

This machine is heaven sent. I bought mine almost 5 years ago and it still works PERFECTLY. I have a family of 4 and use my machine on average 2 - 3 times a week. It makes the BEST chicken I have ever had, perfectly moist and juicy every time. You WILL NOT be disappointed...

Simple to use, and good results. Negative aspect is that it is a space hog and the impaling rods are sharp. Not a good gift for the eldery. It takes finese and some strength to load a leg of lamb or chicken on the sharp daggars. Caution needed.
However easy to clean, the spit does well in the dishwasher.
You need to grease the pivot points w/ oil each time you use (I use olive oil). Otherwise it will make and odd sound like whale noises.
The unit does get hot, which is the point, avoid over hung cabinets or placing it in reach of children.
I have always covered the drip pan w/ aluminum foil, and after a year the pan is still like new.

I had one of these in the larger size and then when I moved I left it behind :( So when I decided I couldn't live without it I decided to get the JR since I was just cooking for one. I love how easy and foolproof it is but I have noticed it has quite the obnoxious squeaking sound if its holding say a large 5lb or more chicken. The squeaking is annoying but its ok because this takes all the guesswork out of cooking meats and they are ALWAYS so juicy and flavorful :-)

This is money well spent! We have used our for almost 2 years now and we have never had a problem with it. We cook dinner for 8 almost every weekend and people rave about this machine. If you want the best turkey you have ever had, put a turkey breast seasoned with Lawreys season salt and you will have the best turkey ever! We have used ours for everything from burgers in the basket to chickens and venison roast and everything comes out juicy and delicious.

I've read all of these reviews and love the rotisserie, but am wondering why these reviews are the same as the ones on the Target.com website? Are they genuine reviews? Do the sites share reviews?
