The Dome Broke on My Nuwave Too
The dome on my Nuwave oven cracked after just a few months use. It's so bad now, I have to replace it. My friend (who recommended the Nuwave oven) also had to replace his dome. I just went to the Nuwave website to order a new "Wonder" dome and saw that the price was $50 (!!), which I probably would have paid reluctantly, but they were out of stock. That was the only item on their website that was "out of stock, " so that should give you an idea of how widespread the "cracking dome problem" really is. There are hundreds of complaints on the web about the dome cracking. Moreover, there are people that have replaced their dome 2-3 times! The Nuwave oven cooks great but the total cost of ownership over (say 5 years) must be sky high, virtually eliminating any of the purported cost savings realized by not using a conventional oven, which usually last for decades!
I wouldn't recommend the Nuwave oven to anyone until Nuwave proves they have fixed the problem. Initially, I loved the Nuwave oven but the dome problem does not make it good purchase. Don't buy it. If you do, you will be greatly disappointed.
