how much clearance does this rack offer above the roasting pan? (how much above the pan does it hold the meat?)

There is about 3/4" between the top surface of the bottom of the rack and the surface of the pan, so the meat is less than an inch above the pan.

It will depend on your roasting pan. I have an AllClad large with flared sides. The lowest part of the rack sits about 3/4" above the pan. The center is about 4" wide. When I want to roast larger vegetables with the meat like potatoes I run them down the sides.

I don't have one, but, if you're going to cook a roast, I think it would be a good idea to get the roast up and off the cooking surface. If you planned to use a drip pan, I really like the V rack idea. Then you could have a roast and all the "fixins." Good luck and good eats, Van.

It will only hold a 9x13 pan (glass or metal) if the pan does not have any kind of lip or handle. If you have pans without a lip or handle, you can put one on each shelf. I also don't understand what Judith is saying. It sounds like she is talking about the roasting pan, not a rack. And, if the oven did not have two oven racks, she should have contacted Hamilton Beach warranty. I just had an oven with a knob that quit working; called warranty and had a new one at my door within a week. Great oven, great warranty!

Only the rack pan is non-stick. The interior is only 11" wide so if your using it as an oven you might want to go larger. It hold 9" cake pan, 8x8 baking dish, or a meat loaf pan. The temperature dial setting is hard to find. you have to feel for the raised line. Also the two positions are either in the center or at the bottom. If you have anything with a little height, it is either to close to the top or bottom elements.

Fully covered no bigger than about 20lbs. When using the shallow roaster, I've cooked a 26lb turkey on a rack.

Judith, I'm no great cook, and I'm probably not the one to give you any cooking advice, but I think if the roast is elevated by the "V" rack, it will cook better, all around, and, if you intend to make gravy or to use the drippings, with something like a pot roast, the elevated roast won't be swimming in its juices. Good luck.With or without the "V" rack, I'm sure your roast will be good, so enjoy it with your family or friends, and take all the credit.

Dear Bubby Bob, Bosch's installation manual does not mention any specific clearance below the cooktop. They recommend at least 2 inches around the sides and back of the unit and 2.24 to the front. Any cabinets above should be at least 30 inches above the surface. You may want to contact Bosch directly or you can call our sales department at1-888-768-1710 and they can call Bosch on your behalf to check on any recommendation.

I would think so it is just an oval shape rack that raises up a little bit we got it for a dutch oven when we cook so the meat don't sit in the grease as it cooks

The rack is stainless. I roasted a turkey at 350 using he lid only, and roasted a beef roast and veggies using the entire pan at 325. Another post stated that the stainless didn't conduct the heat very well. The roast might have taken longer, but it was so tender and juicy. I can't see why it wouldn't be able to go in a hot oven. It is a heavy quality pan.

The horizontal rack is about 14" in diameter should be a guide. I've cooked chickens and pork shoulders in the 10 lb range.

Sitting on the lowest rack one needs 12 inch clearance. My Bosch oven will accommodate a 5 to 6 lb chicken.

The clearance between the upper and lower shelves is 10". The radius from the center bar to the back is 11". It will hold a good size pot (not big enough for a giant stockpot though). FYI...I love this pot rack!

Rack has held up well the only problem I had was during transit the rack rubbed and scared the pan in four spots but my pan does everything I want to use it for roasting meats and veggies

About half an inch. It's configured just like any standard flat roasting rack, just smaller in length and width.

3 and a half feet i would guess have it packed away right now and am unable to get to it to tell you for certain.the cooking rack for a grill is about a foot less

The feet raise the cooling rack to the level of the edge of the pan. Fits nicely inside a half sheet baking pan.

The rack "floats" above the floor of the pan by about half an inch. Plenty of space for drippings!
