Customer Ratings & Reviews

This little awesome machine is one of the nicest easiest fastest alternatives to a microwave that I have ever used. I highly recommend anyone looking for a nutritious option to microwave cooking to check this model out they have done an amazing job Designing this unit.

Being a Vegan family, we are always looking for different ways to prepare and cook foods. We have tried lots of different countertop cooking devices and for the most part, have liked them all. When I saw this new steam oven, I was intrigued. Cooking with steam is nothing new, but cooking with steam in an oven? That seems like another healthy and interesting way to cook, so I had to give this a shot. The first thing we did was make pizza from scratch. The dough was raw, so it was a great first test. It came out incredibly good (see photos). How this thing can actually cook and crisp raw pizza dough and toppings with steam is beyond me, but really cool to say the least. We have also tried roast-steaming veggies and it worked really well. Almost the same as a regular oven, only faster, still crisping the edges of the veggies perfectly. While I know this isn’t a traditional “toaster oven” it is pretty close to the same concept, only using steam and dry heating elements together in unison. To me this seems much better than a traditional toaster oven. The front glass does acquire some condensation when cooking (not much at all), but there is an easily removable drip tray underneath that catches all of the moisture. It is quick and easy to dump this after each cooking session. The oven does have some sort of fan that stays on for a few minutes after it is finished cooking, presumably to dry out the moisture in the oven and eject it into the drip tray and/or to cool it down. The manual calls for filtered water in the tank for steaming, so we use the filtered water from our five gallon water dispenser. The tank is under the dial and comes out easily to fill. I once forgot to fill it and the oven worked well even without the steam, essentially making it more like a regular oven. The heating elements are on the top of the oven, so broiling, faux (or regular) cheese melting, etc., is easy. Nachos! The dial and buttons are super simple and self explanatory and I never had to use the manual to figure them out. The dial also lights up with a red light around its edge making it look pretty cool when in use. There are two pans inside. One is a flat drip pan that can also be used as a cooking tray. The other is the same size, only having holes so things can get a little more crispy. I find that I am using the tray with the holes 90% of the time and the other underneath to catch crumbs and other food from getting all over the bottom of the oven. I would have given a full five stars if it cooked toast as fast as a toaster does, but it does not. This is by no means a deal breaker, but it would have been nice to ditch the toaster and save some room on the counter. Secondly, it is stainless steel, so it does attract fingerprints easily. All in all, we are very happy with this oven. It cooks and re-heats very quickly. In our go go society today, this is a bonus. We are looking forward to seeing what we can do with it next!

This counter top steam oven has an excellent build quality and functions very well – but, its versatility is limited by its size. There is a decent amount of linear space, but the height is limited.  The manufacturer brags that the oven can cook 9 pieces of toast, but those needing such a large quantity of bread would also need space to cook a large quantity of other items.  Sadly, that space simply isn't there.  Successful use of this oven does require some trial & error as the cooking times listed on food packaging doesn't seem to match what is required here.  While pre-heating is not required, cook times still seem to be a few minutes longer than expected.  Luckily, the interior light and the window ensure that it is easy to view the current state of your food (that is, when the steam isn't fogging up your view).   The price seemed high at first, but I have been absolutely blown away by how well it re-heats pizza.  The steam keeps the crust soft and moist while the bottom is re-crisped and the cheese is brought back to the perfect bubbling hot temperature.  I will never use the microwave to re-heat pizza again.   While this oven does have its limitations, I am confident that this device is not a gimmick.  It is easy to use, is built to last, and very much holds its own as a worthwhile addition to the kitchen.  PROS: + Does a phenomenal job re-heating pizza. + The steam does a good job of keeping food moist.  (Over cooking may burn the outside, but still generally leaves the interior moist) + Solid build quality (should last for many years) + Simple & intuitive controls that are bright, easy to read, and aesthetically pleasing + Door handle stays cool to the touch + The window & interior light make it easy to see the food which helps to monitor cooking progress + The door is held close with a magnet (which means it is extremely unlikely that the door would break, or fail to seal properly) + Runs quietly + Does not require time to pre-heat + Comes with a Broiling Pan and Crisper Tray + The drip tray successfully catches the condensations that results from all of the steam that escapes the oven CONS: - No button to turn interior light on/off - Expels a large amount of steam when door is opened.  This can cause burns, or eventually damage cabinets above the oven. - Drip tray needs to be changed after each use, but as it is tucked under the unit - it is not always easy to remove without spilling. - Water reservoir is small and needs to be refilled after each item cooked.  (If you make multiple pizzas, you will need to refill the reservoir for each pizza). - Manufacturer Instructions for grocery store items do not include accurate cook times for this steam oven.  It takes a bit of trial and error to discover accurate cook times. - Interior of oven is not tall enough to cook many items such as roasted chicken, meatloaf, or loaf of bread.  A few additional inches would go a long way without taking up any additional counter space. - Stainless steel case gets too hot to have items resting on top of it. - Slightly heavy – meaning that you will not want to move it.  It will probably be a permanent addition to your countertop.

On arrival, the box was bigger than expected. I opened the outside brown box and found a nicely padded factory box. After opening the factory box, it was pretty straight forward. It had the oven itself, the drip tray and the cooking and crisper trays. After pulling the oven out, it was larger than I was expecting. I checked the dimensions prior and knew it would be a Hoss, but it was BIG. Please note, you'll need some counter real estate to place this Bad Boy. Set up was expectedly easy. Insert drip tray at front base, insert the baking tray and crisping tray and that's about it. I read the instructions and it was suggested to run a "Clean" cycle before first use. No problem. After running that we were good to go. Our first test was pretty dang simple. Toast! We placed a couple pieces of whole wheat bread, rotated the dial to the "Toast" position, chose our preferred level between 1-7 (we chose 4) and pressed "Select" and then "Start" and it immediately started. Approximately 5 minutes later we had 2 surprisingly moist but crisp pieces of toast. The taste was excellent. We were pleasantly surprised with the taste and quality. I know that 5 minutes seems like a bit long for toast, but on a matter of scale, our regular toaster can do a maximum of 2 pieces in 2.5 minutes where as this unit can do 6 to 9 pieces (depending on size and shape of bread) in just a little over 5 minutes. The same 9 pieces in our regular toaster would have taken more than 12 minutes so this unit could be a real time saver and offer a superior product. Our next test? The classic frozen waffle. Again, using the toast mode, we did 3 pieces in the same 5 minutes and the end product was great. The waffles were really moist yet crispy and they had a great texture. Very impressed. Third test was an interesting experience. We purchased 2 thin crust frozen pizzas. My son did the first one per the box instruction. Truth be told, it turned out a little over-cooked. It was still tasty and moist but a little rubbery. I looked at the included card and it suggested to go a little more than half the suggested time for a thin crust pizza. So I put the second pizza in at suggested temp but I ran about 40% less time and the second pizza was excellent. The crust was crisp, the toppings moist. Very good. IMPORTANT NOTE: I am cooking at just around 6000 feet above sea level, so some of this feedback may be slightly different depending on your unique location. Fourth test was some refrigerated fried chicken from our local grocery deli. We put stove on bake mode and placed on crisp tray at 350 degrees for 12 minutes. The end result? Another home run. The chicken was considerably more moist than from an oven but the crust was still crisp. Excellent. Fifth and final test was the most surprising one. My wife and 16 year old son went to run a few errands and my 13 year old daughter said she wanted to test the oven with chocolate chip cookies. Great idea! Long story short, we made 2 different recipes and cooked half of each recipe in traditional oven and half in this unit. Both my daughter and I preferred the cookies from this stove. They were moist, crisp on the base and had a great texture. The real test for this was just as we pulled the last batch out, my wife and son came back from errands and we had them blind test. It was an overwhelming and immediate preference from both of them for cookies delivered from this oven. Pretty impressive! Truth be told, when I first saw this I thought it was a bit of a gimmick. I mean I thought it was cool gimmick, but a gimmick nonetheless. After these tests and a few days use, I humbly stand corrected. This is a truly unique, efficient, effective and useful kitchen appliance. The other impressive aspect for me is that it uses considerably less energy than a standard electric oven. Anything to save a buck or two and I am all in. Another important note, this stove DOES NOT require pre-heating, so in addition to saving that pre-heat time, you are saving also the pre-heat energy expense waste. Very cool feature In the end, this is a great unit if you have the room for an additional large-small appliance. Important to note that this unit will take a little bit of experimentation and I highly suggest (can't believe that I am saying this!) to read the short manual and instructions first, but if you do, you can't go wrong.

The Sharp SuperSteam Oven is about the size of a large microwave. It has a nice, modern look with its stainless steel exterior and minimal buttons. Although it takes up counter real estate, it isn't heavy so it could easily be stored elsewhere when not in use. It is nice enough looking though that you can keep it out if you have the space. One thing I love about it is that you don't need to preheat it!! You just fill the reservoir with cold water, select your cook mode, set the temp and cook time and you're done. The interior light illuminates when the oven is cooking so you can watch your food get crisp and browned. The oven will cook as high as 485 degrees, so it is great for making small pizzas (up to 9 inches). So far I've used it to cook homemade pizza, frozen pizza, and french toast. All have come out looking and tasting great! The french toast didn't even need to be flipped! The steam gets the outsides crisp and keeps the inside moist and chewy. I am thoroughly enjoying this oven and I would recommend it if you like cool kitchen gadgets.

This Sharp SuperSteam Toaster/Pizza Oven was a revelation. The name is a misnomer if you think it describes exclusively what this appliance does. It does so much more. And does it well. First, it is not a small counter-top appliance. It weighs almost 25 pounds and has enough interior space for 12.5 X 12.5-inch toasting and broiling pans. And it needs some space around the unit for venting. The chrome finish is gorgeous, but like all such finishes, it is a fingerprint magnet. There is almost no cooking task that it cannot do. It can bake, broil and toast with the best conventional oven. It is limited only by its size. Obviously, it can't hold a full-size turkey or ham. But I used it to make our favorite chicken tetrazzini recipe in a huge casserole dish. No problem. I heated a frozen pizza. I cooked hot dogs and hamburgers. I baked brownies. I made toast and delicious grilled cheese sandwiches. A recipe book is included, but the cooking possibilities are endless. There is a handy chart in the back of the book for the temperature and cooking times for generic items. There is no preheating, so it is quick. Because it uses a combination of super-heated steam and more conventional electrical heating elements to thoroughly cook your food. I prepared two hot dogs for lunch. Fill the reservoir with water for the steam. Set the unit to grill on the broiling pan at 485 degrees for eight minutes and press the button to start. That’s it. And the cooked food is extremely flavorful and moist on the inside. The toast and pastries were beautifully browned on the outside. I have never eaten a frozen pizza with the flavor this little unit unleashed. I am sure the super heated steam played a large part. I cannot readily name a shortcoming. For a young person living in an apartment, a full- sized stove could be totally replaced by this attractive unit. And for an elderly adult, almost every food could be prepared at counter top level without having to bend down to open a stove door and retrieve its contents. And it is faster and more economical to use that a full size oven. I am very fond of it. Highly reccomended!

I am not a chef but I do know how to cook, I use pots, pans and stuff like that, and I usually use microwave to reheat or cook frozen food. A steam oven toaster never heard something like this until I tested this one out, I am very impressed of how a combination of heat and steam can achieve some of the results you get from this oven. The oven itself is a bit smaller than the regular countertop conventional oven and some microwave. The inside is not as tall as the microwave, but is deep and you can fit most food items (not a whole chicken). The built quality, modern looks and the stainless steel make this oven look very nice in the kitchen and is also very simple to use, with 3 buttons and a rotary knob. The glass windows, and interior lights makes the viewing of the cooking process of your food very easy when the oven is in use. I made a few grill cheese sandwiches and they all came out perfect every time, crunchy & golden on the outside, and moist with a prefect melted cheese in the inside just like they advertised. I usually used countertop grill to toast my sandwiches but with this oven I don’t have to any more, I get better results in less time. This toaster oven is by far the perfect pizza reheater I have ever used, pizza will come out so good is like you just bought it, not like the microwave which will make the crust and bottom chewy, you will be amazed. No more eating reheated pizza in with a fork and knife. I did not have any idea it was possible to toast using steam and heat and get this amazing result, this thing already replaced my countertop grill. In the box it comes with the microwave, 2 pans (crisper/broil), water dispenser, drip tray, cookbook and the manual.

I have always been aware that cooking with steam does great things to food in terms of taste, especially for fish. What a genius idea combining steam and traditional oven! My wife and I had plenty of fun testing this oven for the past 3 weeks, broiling/grilling scallops, cod fish, and salmon, achieving greatest results. Steam preserves natural taste, and as such much less salting is necessary if anything. Also made various frozen pizzas with awesome results. Definitely better than making pizza in a traditional (convection) oven. More fluffy and crusty. It's very easy to use this oven. I'd say there it's almost impossible to not achieve great results. Just make sure you always pick the right cooking mode (I once selected the "Bake/Reheat" cooking mode for pizza instead of the dedicated "Pizza" cooking mode which resulted in soft pizza. And, best follow the enclosed recipe book in terms of duration and temperature, as well as the table (see picture), and you can't go wrong. I very highly recommend this steam oven to friends and family, a well-deserved 5 stars. Only improvement recommendation I'd have: Provide a display that shows the actual state of temperature (for example, as the oven is heating up). The display shows temperature presets and a count-down timer only, which is probably sufficient for most. It's like a "set and forget" experience: You set the cooking mode and temperature, add your food to the upper or lower tray, and select "Start". Don't forget to check the water tank that is full of water.

I like many folks, don’t always have time to cook a full meal even with 2 kids. So I sometimes make frozen foods. I went from a mid level toaster oven with convection. I thought the food with my old machine cooked well. That was until I tried this sharp oven with super heated steam. I didn’t know much about that super heated steam feature but Wow is all I can say. I tried foods my kids love first. So a frozen pizza was cooked first. The pizza sauce was quite hot and the chees was not over cooked like in traditional counter top ovens. I really was surprised as I thought it would be the same as convection. But man then I did chicken nuggets and frozen fries. They both were cooked evenly and not over done on the outsides. The flavor seemed better as well. It’s amazing for sure. Especially if you don’t want to use all that electricity with the oven and you are in a rush or want a break from cooking a whole meal. Also this oven is beautiful, not that it’s more important than the food but sharp really put thought into the design. Looks very high end. The options and buttons are plenty as well and easy to use once you get the hang of it. I’d say give it a shot. You won’t be disappointed in you are looking for a worthy upgrade. You will not regret it. Or at least I didn’t. Good luck and happy shopping!

i was searching for a new compact counter style oven when I ran across this sharp steam oven,.. it was intriguing to say the least and rather pricey compared to a few other ones i’d Looked at but after much soul searching I ordered it. I was very apprehensive and started getting a little buyers remorse while I awaited it’s arrival,... once it arrived and I checked it over from bottom to top I was delighted to see it was built very solidly. Once I started cooking things with it all that buyers remorse faded away,... as many have said before a frozen pizza is its forte ! Cookies,pies ,small casseroles etc have all baked beautifully. The controls are super easy to navigate, the cooking times may be a slight learning curve but you can always add more time at the end of your cooking cycle if you wish.,overall, I believe I made a good choice.

I absolutely adore this countertop oven. It is SO simple to use and I can literally cook anything in it-- cookies, lasagna, chicken, you name it. It has multiple cooking modes I use the bake/reheat the most and put it at 485 for less cooking time on my dishes. I would recommend to anyone in an apartment that doesn't want to turn on their regular oven all the time.

First time owner of a steam oven and I absolutely love it. I got rid of the toaster oven and the huge microwave oven, which I replaced with a small unit just to heat up my coffee. The steam oven is simple to use and I have used to toast and reheat every day. I have also used the pizza setting to cook frozen pizza.

This is amazing we took it on our last camping trip and it’s supper easy to use my kids are heating up food and the no preheating is a must have feature. It’s definitely a must have for our house and camping trips. There is really nothing to learn it’s self explanatory just put water select the setting and ready to eat.. cooks evenly .

SuperSteam Steam Oven is easy to use and cooks food to delicious perfection. I barely use my houses oven anymore. Who wants to heat the entire house using a full size oven when you can make the same size dish and have it turn out even tastier thanks to the steam bake technology the oven uses.

Beautiful. Fast. Powerful. Easy. I didn’t know about steam ovens but found this on the deal of the day. Love it. Better than an air fryer.

I originally bought this stove to minimize usage of our microwave because of its EMFs. Our family likes it for reheating food, but rice is not something to reheat in this steam oven because it comes out crispy. We also like that we don't have to defrost anything and can put it directly in the oven. Not everything is going to come out looking like if you cooked it on the stove but the taste is the same. Yes, toast does take longer to toast but we noticed that the toast was softer on the inside because of the steam but still crunchy on the outside. Need to also clean and use the drain process at the end of the day to get the water out of the unit. Takes getting used to just like anything else that's new.

Really convenient for daily use with toast/bake/boil functions when you don't need to waste energy in the monster oven. My family loves the crispy and tangy pizza and bread it toasts!

It’s easy to clean and easy to use. I don’t like to use my pre heat requirement of a regular oven and how big it is. This is a perfect size for me.

Just go for it. It's gonna change the way you cook honestly. Front right cooks a little slower than the rest, is my only gripe. Otherwise this thing is amazing. Cooks everything perfectly dang near every time. Fish in this thing is restaurant level, toasted bread - restaurant level, veggies? Restaurant level. You'll be happy. Forget an air fryer.

This steam oven is awesome. I had a Breville toaster over but this one does not need preheating and is easier to clean. Highly recommended!
