Has anyone found any good pans to use in this oven? I just got one and really like it but don't have any cookware yet to go with it.

I've been mostly using standard dishware and micro-wave bowls. It did fit my casserole dish nicely. I find this to be a much roomier oven than my prior one.

If you use it as a convection oven, any type of cookware will do.... just remember that food does cook faster because of the circulating air.......If you use it as a microwave......Use microwave cookware and be careful not to use metal or cookware that has metallic paint.....you will have a fancy spark show! ceramics seem to work best! Hope this helps!

It's tiny so pretty much only small bowls and Tupperware work in it. Plastic mixing bowls work too.

First, I would like to say, personally, I would NEVER stick a pot in the oven. This one will get extremely hot on the handles even if it says oven safe. I have never paid attention if this pot is oven safe. How often do you need an over set OVER 400 degrees? I have never gone over 425 and that is for like a short bake items like say pizza crust. This pot is great, but I would never stick it in the over. The handles get hot and check the manufacture link if it is designed for over use. My advice, use stonewear. Hope this helps.

We've had ours for about 2 weeks and it seems to get pretty hot. We've rotisseried five different things and used the oven quite a bit, and everything's turned out great! Pre-heating is essential. Good luck!

I've used all four pans, and I have not experienced any issues. I really like the fact that the heat is evenly distributed in the pans. What is the trouble you are having specifically?

I've had mine since December. LOVE IT! I love the fast bake feature and the convection oven works wonderfully! Especially nice when I don't want to heat up the entire kitchen! Follow the directions for the install, and enjoy it!

I have put mine in the oven, but I used a foil lid cause I didn't want to risk the glass/plastic of the lid which also fits other pans I have. The lid handles are a bit flimsy.. but the pot itself should be no problem.

I have -- more than once! It worked beautifully. A part of using a pan like this well, I think, is knowing not only the properties of the pan, but the habits of your oven. I use a sort of tired electric stove, and instead of pre-heating oven and pan, I usually oil well, put a little extra flour in the pan before putting the dough in, and let the oven and pan slowly heat together. That means I do end up cooking the bread for, say, closer to 40 minutes than 30, but the results have been delicious. The lid does a good job of helping the crust balance crispness and moisture. One thing to note: the dome on the lid is rather flat, so if your risen dough (even after punching down) does a really BIG second rise while it's cooking, it is going to bump against the lid. The one time that happened to me, it just meant the top was a little indented rather than really round, which doesn't bother me. In any case, it's cooked evenly and tasted great every time I've done it. I'm about to cook a couple of loaves to take with me for the holidays, in fact. :)

I just got mine. I have a 9 X 13 that I was hoping to be able to use, but the handles make it entirely too long. Do you know where I could find a 9X13 GLASS pan WITHOUT handles? I need this size for my cake, but I HATE to use the big stove oven.

I didn't and still love ours. Use it all the time. It is showing some signs of wear but less than other high quality non-stick pans.

Can anyone tell me if a casseole dish will fit on this oven. A reg. size one like a 9x13. biggefr would be great!

I have never put it in the oven or the dishwasher. It is really easy to clean. The only complaint I have is that the bottom of the pan is not flat, not sure why but I did read something when I bought it. I have really enjoyed it though. The lid handle is metal so does get very hot.

I have used other lodge cast iron and it is fine, it gets a little dirty and you may have to reseason after that or after using at a sustained high heat. I have used this pan on the stove at max temperature and the only thing I noticed was that it warped a little because of the temperature difference between the center and the outside of the pan, but it went back to normal when done. Should not be a problem in the oven.

Your experience highlights one major flaw in the marketing of the Fagor 12 quart oven. No detailed information on temperature and other cooking requirements. In all honesty my experience has been through trial and error. Fagor's main competitor in the US is Nuwave. Their oven has much more specific directions on cooking procedures. I would suggest you contact Fagor on their customer support number in the manual and query their food prepartion rep. Sorry I can't help you with more specific information but I can thorougly sympathize with your experience as it mirrors my experiences too. When I do get satisfactory results I note the rack/temperture/time in a notebook that I keep near the oven for future reference. Good luck!

I have washed my pan in the dishwasher, no problem. Haven't used it in the oven yet, but I'm sure it will be fine. Hope this helps.

You betcha!!!! I even bought a pizza stone for this oven. I tell you it's a great deal. I use it all the time. You can fit a 1/4 sheet pan in it. Happy pizza making!!!

I'm unfamiliar with what works in an easy bake oven. I bought it for playdoh play. It's a great set. I'm just uncertain about using it with easy bake !
