About the oven: USHA Halogen Oven uses a unique air fry technology to cook the food. The oven is a perfect blend of technology, elegance and utility. Multifunctional, it can replace 9 different kitchen appliances to bake, grill, deep fry, and roast or defrost. The smart digital panel presets to set the time and temperature for the large variety of delicacies from across the world. A circular filament filled with the inert Halogen gas, lights up to create a powerful, intense heat for cooking. This heat is equally distributed inside through the fan inside, ensuring uniform cooking perfected by the preset controls of the digital panel. Unlike in a microwave where the infrared rays excite the water and fat molecules instead of real heating, in a halogen oven the heat is intense and dissipated well resulting in better cooking.

Priced at just INR 8995, the oven comes with 12L capacity and 1 year warranty.
