On one ordinary day back in 2012, a hefty envelope turned up in my snail mail containing a very kind letter along with a mechanical drawing so detailed it made me want to chew my hair. The sender thought I would be the perfect person to build my own solar oven. Right. Like that was ever going to happen. The idea of cooking with sunshine did, however, pique my curiosity.

A few days of intense research confirmed that I would never, ever consider building a solar oven, but instead invest in a Sun Oven.
