The video below pushes a certain brand name of solar ovens. The real point is that clean, super efficient energy use such as a solar oven helps sustain life on this planet which is what Bioenergetic Spectrum is all about: Clean, efficient energy sources are conducive to the health of this planet and everyone on it. Please have a look:

Now, you could spend hundreds of dollars on a solar oven. In fact, there are many models from which you can choose to fit your budget and your lifestyle like this one from Amazon:
Product Features
- Includes a 5.3 quart enameled steel pot
- The aluminum reflector sides fold down for easy storage
- Can reach temperatures up to 350-400 degrees
- Low-cost, high-performance solar oven
- 15½” x 15½” x 10½”; ship weight is 19 lbs.
Or if you prefer, you can get the Sun Oven that you saw in the video at a reduced price through Amazon:
Or, if you’re a do-it-yourselfer (DIYr), then here’s a .pdf manual that shows you how to make your own solar oven from an umbrella, aluminum foil, and a few spare parts: Paracuina. This project has a projected cost from $10 to $20 depending on how elaborate you want it.
If you’re a hardcore DIYr and you want a permanent, weather proof, solidly built solar oven for your backyard, then please grab the following .pdf manual that shows you how to build an oven from raw materials including dirt, straw, rocks, brick, aluminum, cork, wood, and glass: Presentacio forn solar cob.
The design is from South America. Since it’s more elaborate with materials and workmanship, it can cost upwards of $100 to make. The difference is this is an item that a solar BBQ type contractor might charge you $500 to $600 to make for you, easy. If you want a permanent niche for your very own super efficient solar oven where you can bake your favorite foods, then this is the way to go.

Thanks for your time.
