Can you broil in this roaster safely? How hight of heat is safe in baking? Does roaster keep its beautiful appearance after several uses?

I have not broiled with this roaster. You should check with the manufacturer on that subject. I've not used a baking heat over 375, but it should take a bit higher heat. Once again, check w/the manufacturer. Also, it KEEPS its BEAUTIFUL appearance . I've had it for almost 2 years. I hope I have helped you. It is perfect for a large turkey, and I have even cooked in the top and the bottom of this roaster.

I would say yes. The darker the bakeware the better but I have used glass. Just make sure you cover it with tin foil or the cover that comes with it. Also, measure your roaster and measure inside of oven (or shelf) to make sure it will fit. I use a smaller roaster pan that happens to be granite wear but I think you can use any kind as long as it fits on the shelf. However, you can remove the shelf and set the pan inside so measure that. I have baked chicken, brownies, lasagna, casseroles, apple pie and strawberry pies, banana bread, meatloaf, meatballs. The possibilities are endless. You will love it after you use it several times and experiment with times. Good luck.

Yes, it is oven safe to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. It is not safe for use under the broiler.See http://calphalon.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/26/~/can-i-use-calphalon-cookware-in-the-oven-or-broiler%3F

I am not near the roaster, but know that it was used several times and is wonderful. It is sturdy enough for large turkeys and cleans up easily. I had another one that was Teflon and this one is 10 times better. I plan on ordering another one for a gift.

We have not used the broiler so I can not answer your questions, but as a baking oven it works great and does a good job of browning.

I have similar silicone bakeware that takes oven but not broiler. I would be cautious because they are taller and don't have a rim for extra strength. I use them often in my kitchen for mix and prep duties. Love the flex for pouring.

The oven may provide even heating. It may not warp then. When I used it on the stove top for which it was designed, it warped badly and never to return to it's original profile. I ended up throwing it out and buying the Lodge cast iron model. Worth the extra money. Now I stay away from Nordic Ware.

In the Bake Reheat Roast Position a safe height would be about 3.5 inches. 4 inches will interfere with the top heating element.

I have, my broiler is at the top of my oven. Makes no difference, have had it up to 500. There is a smell to the holders, but I'm sure whatsoever you're cooking will overpower any other oder. It's somerhing with the material.

Yes, it bakes well. But as I mentioned in my original review I cover the pie crust for half of the time it's in the oven so it doesn't burn. Brownies I put on the lowest rack so the top doesn't get over cooked. It's still a toaster oven and although it is very big, the heating element is still closer than a regular oven. It bakes beautifully but you still have to take precautions that you don't have to take with a regular oven.

This item is oven safe, but not for use under a broiler. I would not put it under a broiler.

We have used the roaster oven on constant occasions, to date we have been more than satisfied. Our roasted chickens always turn out perfect, so by all means be creative and consider the oven waiting to prove its worth.

Works beautifully going from stovetop to oven. In the oven, if you have this model with the stainless steel handle, the cover can handle up to 450 degrees. But you can't broil with the cover. Enjoy!

Not sure I would recommend that high a heat. I have used it successfully to bake baguettes at 450 degrees F.

I have only used in in the broiler...and it warped after 2nd use. I doubt it could handle the heat at any level. I would look for something else it's a cheap product and not worth the money

I use mine for baking all he time, therefore I surmise broiling would be okay. I use my grab-its Every day !!! Love them !!!
