Black+Decker BXTO3001IN 1600W 30L Oven Toaster Grill OTG with Rotisserie & Convection Feature for Grilling and Baking | Full Stainless Steel Housing | Barbeque Rack with Skewer Rods | 2-year Warranty (Black,Grey)

Black + Decker:--It is a US brand--Manufactured in CHINA.--India specific design (220 volts)--It comes with convection fan--Crystal clear view with Bright yellow light.--I like the look and the build quality is definitely better than Havells/morphy richards.--Except timer knob all other knobs feel good.--OTG door is nice and intact.Loads of reviews available for US oven modelsCommon Issues:1. Shattered glass (US models), lot of shattered glass cases in USA.The Indian model comes with DOUBLE tempered glass, hope that resolves this issue.2. Faulty timer functionality (US models): On this model, setting timer does not feel right. You need to turn knob all the way to 60 min and then back to your desire temperature. It does not feel smooth transition.3. Surprisingly black + decker Indian website does not even show these models,4. Expect zero customer care supportSELLER lied about this model having crumb tray, in fact it does not.Also there is no Baking rack. It’s misleading in the description, thought we get two. Barbecue tray backs up for baking rack now.Performance:1. Baked chocolate cake: Came out really well. 45 min baking at 170 degree Celsius (middle rack)2. Grilled 1.5 kg chicken: Perfect. 70 min grilling at 230 degree Celsius3. Egg puffs: Flopped, maybe my dough preparation was not correct. 40 min baking at middle/top rack 220 degree Celsius4. Coconut cookies: Perfect, 30 min top rack at 180 degree CelsiusI did notice that it takes more time than mentioned in the recipe. And convection did not speed up things. Nevertheless I liked the product and besides its drawbacks I decided to keep it.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I normally write short reviews but decided to go all the way for this product. The reason: I spent way too much time on researching a suitable OTG for my requirement,What size ?40 litres--If you plan to use multiple trays in a single go--Rack up two pizzas--Or bake large cakes, then you need 40 litres--Heating large volume means high power (all models this size come with a power output of 2000 W)30/28 Litres--With couple of tooth picks here and there, we can easily grill 1.5 kg bird--We can also fit two baking racks here but spacing won’t be large, and definitely no 2 pizza’s on this one--Usually wattage is around 1500-1600,--Correct size for me18 Litres and below--No rotisserie, so it does not make my cut.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------Morphy Richards OTG,It is widely popular brand, not just on Amazon, but on YouTube/Food channels, i.e. it’s a de-facto OTG for most Indian baker enthusiasts.So my first consideration the modest 28 L Morphy Richards SS,Look wise not that appealing but it seems to have everything I wanted,--motorized rotisserie,--1600 watt,--crumb tray and--stainless steel body--and the size is just right for me--No convection fan (I was fine with it)But wait, did you check the quantum of BAD reviews it accumulated, issues ranged from--Defective Products being sold--Way too much Heat leak from the door; Too much time to bake--Temperature control is too erratic, and finally--Arrogant customer care unitSimply the current rating (2.7/5) with 296 reviews, a NO GO for me,Note 1: The new besta model seems to have better build quality and I personally like the look. It comes only in 40, 18, 52 litres. No 28/30 litres Note 2: I did not consider Bajaj OTG’s.------------------------------------------------------------------------------Havells:Look wise, it’s similar to Morphy Richards 28 L SS. It is not easily available though.Reviews are available online, all decent enough but too few reviews to make a call.It has,--motorized rotisserie,--1500 watt,--Decent reviews--No crumb tray and No convection fanWell crumb tray was the deal breaker for me,-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I have purchase this sometimes ago. During the first use the inner glass of front door broken. I have contact the supplier through Amazon app and he told me to contact to manufacturer for repair. I also contact them and write the matter Amazon too. I was glad when Amazon supports me and done replacement order immediately. After returning I got my new otg. It is working well now. No complaints about it. But I am afraid of glass quality forever now. Let's see time will tell about this.

I luckily have a digital thermometer which i keep inside the over and control the temperature to get my ideal temperature for baking. This means, i am sitting next to the oven checking the temperature every minute or so.

Condition:-I got the product in good condition with some small dents not easily visible.The packing was good I think the dents are before transportation Packaging:- Packaging was good and very intact.even it's very difficult to open the package.First Look:- The product is looking new and untouched and outer body made of stainless steel is giving good feel as per it's name. Control buttons are simple and attractive and looking durable. I found one nonstick baking tray ,a grill tray and some items for grilling purpose and some items for handling trays. Here one thing is to be mentioned that company/seller giving misleading information about crumb tray. crumb tray is not there. I request the company/seller, could they, please provide me the crumb tray with or without cost.Operation:- Working good ,easy operation, no confusion. This OTG gives option of selection of elements like upper element, below element or both elements.I can select between convection and rottisire or both at a time.A classic timer working well. After sale service:- It's difficult to say about it right now but I have read many times in reviews that servicing is not good. Let's see what happens, I am happy to get my favourite brand it's enough for me. I will revise once again my review after using it some more time. In short I am satisfied with the product On 12th july I used it ,like baking pizzas, garlic bread and chocolate cake. I am very happy with baking all recipes were perfect and nice. The cake was with correct moisture not more not less. This OTG can be purchased without hesitation if you ignore crumb tray.

Please do not buy this product. The top ortion of the oven and portions in the sides started rusting in about 2 months of purchase. Made s big mistake buying this. It had no manual or warranty card in the box when delivered. I still took it. Had I know it’s going to start rusting like that I would have returned it immediately. Now have lost the time. I don’t have any dealer number whom I can speak to, to assist me on this front

The body may be stainless steel but its 202 & not 304 grade. People who know steel will tell you 202 grade stainless steel can also rust. 202 grade stainless steel is magnetic and so is the body of the Black & Decker 30 Ltr oven. So a bit dissapointed. everything else is pretty standard.

Design and functions are good but delivered product is dented. cord length is too less. The plug is not power plug may lead to early damage to socket plug.

Nice and sturdy oven with one drawback that the door opens downwards too fast with no support, chance that the glass might crack.Temperature control is not very accurate and one has to set the temperature higher than required.Otherwise a good looking oven and meets the basic requirement. No crumb tray provided
