Why We're The Best

Most consumers are looking for products that perform extremely well at a very low cost. That was the design criteria used for the XLT ovens. By using fewer components of a higher quality, XLT ovens out-perform most other ovens, in terms such as initial purchase price, performance, and durability.

Standard Features

The XLT ovens have all of the same basic features found in other popular designs, including:

Front-loading sandwich window
Stainless Steel front, sides, and top. (We actually have inside, outside, front, back, top, and bottom stainless steel)
Digital microprocessor controlled bake time and temperature
Adjustable air jet fingers
The finest air impingement process delivers consistent heat to the chamber
Reversible conveyor direction
Customer-specific adjustable jet fingers that allow control of heat delivery

Enhanced Features

The XLT design has additional features that make this design superior to all other ovens on the market because we use (click on a feature to view the explanation):

Standard Parts

Most manufacturers will use special motors, valves, or controls so that nobody else can use them. When you need parts and/or service, there is only one place to get them, and that is the original manufacturer of the appliance.

Stainless Steel

The US Commerce Department defines a "Durable Good" as a manufactured item, such as a car or an appliance that typically lasts at least 3 years. The Pizza industry is approximately 40 years old and has used conveyor ovens only in the last 20 years.

Stainless Steel vs. Aluminized Steel

Aluminized steel is similar to galvanized steel. Both are carbon steel sheets that have a thin layer of either aluminum or zinc applied to the surface to protect against rust. Most other oven manufacturers use aluminized steel for the interior and back of their ovens.

Bearings

We have rebuilt hundreds of Lincoln and Middleby Marshall ovens. The conveyor bearings we have seen are 1/2", 5/8", or 3/4" in diameter. Of the 1/2" bearings, we have seen about a 90% failure rate. The 5/8" bearings experience about a 50% failure rate. We have not seen a failure yet on a ¾" bearing.

Fuses

Fuses protect components. Airplanes and other high quality goods are designed so that a failure of one component will not disable another component. For example, if a motor "shorts out", it could damage the control that is driving it if there is not a fuse between them.

Clean-ability

The entire front panel comes off in seconds with just 4 stainless steel knobs, no tools required. The fingers come out the front even faster.
