The metal scythes fell on the riveted side and started a fire.

I bought an expensive Β£7 rib roast for the holidays and it's now in the bin because the metal skewers collapsed on a fixed rivet and caused a fire. After an hour of cooking, when I was in the bathroom, I heard a big explosion. When I got out I saw that it had collapsed, which was probably caused by the drip pan picking up some grease when it fell, or because it stopped spinning, one side just got too hot and caught fire. From the photos I have it looks like they just fell off. My whole house…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Hard to tell

The easiest and most delicious chicken rolls at home!

After 17 years of bi-monthly use my original Showtime Platinum is obsolete and I bought this to replace it. If it's almost identical to the previous version, but if it's not broken, don't fix it! I love this spit. I've cooked hundreds of chicken, venison, a small roast pork (with BBQ sauce), roast beef, and turkey with just a skewer. The basket is great for fish, and if you have skewers, they're great for sausages and hot dogs. The quality and durability is outstanding - 17 years is the longest

Pros
  • Nice thing
Cons
  • Makes me nervous

Much better than the original version

Well after my original grill had been running for about 10 years the heating element finally failed. We usually cook chicken once a week and it's always turned out great: My biggest complaints were: 1) OLD: No temperature control (always used 1.5-1.25 hours for medium sized chickens. About 90% success rate using this method1) NEW: . So there are now two distances to the heating element that you can use, which is great at first glance. However, they reduced the rotation speed to a much lower…

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • Retrofittable
