I forgot to add that when I first ordered mine, I spoke at length on the phone with the secretary of Max Burton Cookware about the product. She recommended either wrapping things in foil, or putting them in a disposable or other foil/metal bread loaf pan to fit the inside of the unit, or perhaps even better - to use the oven bags. These are the types you can put a whole turkey in (they come in various sizes, made my reynolds), and can withstand oven heat. YOu just off the twistie they provide, open up the stuff, pour it out, eat, and NOTHING to clean up - viola! She added that truckers really like this unit; they put in a beef roast with some sliced onions, herbs, veggies, potatoes, etc., and then have a super quality meal at their destination, with all the vitamins (at least those not destroyed by heat) all sealed in the plastic oven bag. On the way to Kelley park, I threw in some crispy shrimp, and they were good and hot by the time I got there (90 minutes or so). Just don't forget to unplug the thing from your DC source when you get to your destination! :) /martha
