Amazon.com Review
Bacon is excellent with Sunday brunch fixings or on a turkey club sandwich, but many don?t cook it often at home because of the high fat content and the mess. The PowerCrisp just may change all that by providing a leaner and cleaner way to make bacon. This microwave bacon cooker cooks bacon either to a crisp or a soft consistency, depending on how much cooking time it?s given it in the microwave. It has a pair of tent-shaped plastic racks that are easy to load by simply draping strips of bacon over them. The racks rest within a 2-inch-deep tray, which collects all the fat drippings as bacon cooks so the meat is not sitting in its own grease as with stovetop frying. And, as opposed to pan-frying, there is no splatter involved when cooking bacon in the microwave. Simply place a paper towel over the racks and it captures any grease and keeps microwave walls clean. The wraparound handle makes it easy to remove the PowerCrisp from a microwave turntable and dispose of hot drippings without burning hands. Slotted tops on the two plastic racks allow you to slide a knife through the racks to remove cooked bacon. The PowerCrisp cooks up to 10 strips of bacon at a time and both racks and the bottom tray are completely dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. Presto covers this microwave bacon cooker under a two-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

5 out of 5 stars Bacon for the 21st century   November 3, 2008

The Presto Microwave Bacon Cooker is an outstanding device. It is easy to use and keep clean, but most importantly, it produces crisp bacon with much of the fat drained off. Strongly recommended.

have been using this same type bacon cooker for several years- decided to give some as Christmas gifts this year - best bacon cooker on the market


5 out of 5 stars The perfect bacon cooker   October 28, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I've had this microwave bacon cooker for as long as I can remember. My new girlfriend used it and it apparently made such an impression that she begged me to find one for her. That's how I ended up buying on Amazon.com. No wonder it is still around; it is a perfectly designed product that does exactly what it is meant to do. I like this design because the fat drips down away from the bacon making it as healthy as bacon can be. Once you figure out the right setting on your microwave, you get perfect results every time. It is also easy to clean in the dishwasher.

This item cooks bacon well. I do not like overcooked crisp bacon. I find that I can control the doneness much easier with this device.


5 out of 5 stars Great for crisp bacon   October 14, 2008

My wife likes crispy bacon and this is a perfect way to make it. We put 8 pieces of bacon at once and microwave it for 7 minutes and it comes out perfect. If you like it less crispy you just leave it in a little less time and you can have it the way you like it. We also got one for our daughter's family.
