When I finally got everything that was supposed to be in the package, this solar cooker is BIG and should work well. I’m going to test it out this afternoon. The directions were very good that came with the product and it took about 25 minutes to assemble with flexing the joints as it recommends. It’s durable and should hold up for a long time, and it is easy to take apart and store and comes with a bag for storing the hardware.

The key to this product is studying the recommended usage instructions and finding the best fit pan situation to amplify the sun power. In the instructions it does admit it usually takes practice to find your perfect location for cooking and sometimes it is necessary to move about. Placement of the solar peg is important too. Adjusting the flaps works best with either clothespins or any kind of clamp and does require some intuition. It managed to cook a chicken soup within about 5 hours starting early in the morning it was in about a 5 quart volume of combined meat, veggies and water. Everything was thoroughly cooked and tasty. Pork chops were tasty but I probably could have pulled them out a bit sooner to avoid the toughness but it was my first attempt! Beans should work but again depending on the thickness of the metal pan the dark color of the metal and the amount of liquid and beans being attempted. I’ve tried 2 times the first time failed because I didnt know what I was doing and did 4 cups beans and 12 cups of water.The second time I halved everything but was trying to cook to much at once. The items you want cooked must be on the flat level base of the cooker. I also stopped using the flimsy grill they provided because the heat transference was poor with it there. (And all the videos of success showed pans directly on the box. I am awaiting some new pans and am excited to keep cooking with the sun!

I have been using it with the pyrex 4 quart bowls and the 3 pound Granite roasting pot. Till I broke one of my bowls. Tried one of the roasting bags and it works great also. Getting temperatures on the outside of the roasting pot close to 300f with good sun. I was using a car windshield sunshade and getting about the same temperatures. But the All Seasons Cooker is much easier to setup and keep in alignment with the sun. Something an owner should know it not to wipe it with paper towels, they will scratch the shiny surface. The instructions say to use a soft cloth and that works good. I did add two nylon strings and clips to help keep it more open. The video is a must watch for easy setup and working all the creases to break it in. Using it in Southern Oregon.Update with my pyrex bowls oven, they are working great. Yummy Pork roast in about 2.5 hours. Loving this well thought out design solar cooker. Well worth the money!

This is the first time I used a solar oven of any sort. Setting it up was very easy with the directions that came with it. I made 2 thawed salmon fillet’s. They were refrigerator cold when first put in oven, but were too hot to touch when I took them out. The consistency of the fillet’s were perfect and very moist. The flavor was amazing. It was a mostly sunny day and i had them in there 1 hour because it took me an hour to mow. It was very nice just putting the food in there and doing chores and coming back to your food perfectly done . I will be doing many more recipes as often as I can.

After spending time looking at reviews of different sun cookers, I went with this one and love it. It went together easily following the YouTube tutorial (although good instructions do come with it). Instead of trying rice for the first time, I did chicken and potatoes which came out perfect! (There are some good YouTube videos I watched first of other people cooking with it.) Using black-colored cookware inside of two large clear pyrex bowls got the temp up to 180 degrees after 5 hours on a sunny day. Because this cooker allows for flex in the body or “wings”, maximum sun can be had using a couple of clothespins to secure the position. I haven’t used the large clear bags yet that came with it (instead of the pyrex bowls), but I plan to try that tomorrow with a terra cotta cooker. Yum! It’s like a slow cooker except you do need to tend it every couple hours to keep it facing the sun as direct as possible. Great for camping or if you run out of propane after losing power to a hurricane or whatever. I’m probably going to just keep using it because it’s fun to keep learning how to make different things with it!

Concept and materials are great. Iβd suggest hanging the rack from the sides so that it would be self-leveling and more easily accommodate tipping the cooker to focus the sunβs rays beyond the deviceβs adjustment capabilities.

I love this for camping and would use it at home, too. It just makes too much sense to save energy, avoid waste, and enjoy the flavors of slow cooking. It’s great for drying food, also. Shiitakes will be perfectly dried within a 2 – 3 hours, and without sacrificing any flavor; to the contrary! Although the material is handy and light for traveling, it’s still plastic, and I’m unsure about the durability, since the reflective foil started to bubble within the first month of use, mainly for lunch, stored upside down when not in use – definitely not in any harsh weather other than midsummer sunshine. For anyone who thinks (like me, initially) this cooker may be too large and cumbersome to travel with: Don’t hesitate! It’s super quick and easy to assemble once you know how it comes together. 3 minutes and it’s ready to go! And it folds down to a very compact size. There are numerous ways to fold it. So, no worries about fitting it inside your car. It’s so light and packable, I wouldn’t rule out backpacking with it – definitely if cooking for 2 or more people.
