4 Reasons For for Choosing the Hamilton Beach 31105
The Hamilton Beach 31105 has a rotisserie, but the AEG KEK742220M, the Bosch BFR634GB1, the Neff CMB1683 and the Russell Hobbs 22780 do not. More ...
'Rotisserie' denotes whether the oven comes with a rotisserie function: this is used for grilling meat (usually poultry) and involves a metal skewer attachment placed inside the appliance. The meat is impaled onto the skewer, and turned as it cooks - this means the meat cooks evenly on all sides.
Rotisserie cooking is an easy way to cook large amounts of meat so they taste delicious. Normally it requires specialist gear, so being able to use your oven for the same task is excellent.
The Hamilton Beach 31105 has received a Kagoo Score of 90, however the AEG KEK742220M scored 85, the Bosch BFR634GB1 scored 81, the Neff CMB1683 scored only 79 and the Russell Hobbs 22780 scored 84.

The Hamilton Beach 31105's average user rating is 80%, however the Russell Hobbs 22780's is 81% (based on 127 reviews).
