Sharp’s countertop steam oven shrinks down the super-fast steam cooking tech you’d find in a lot of restaurant kitchens to an appliance the size of a large toaster oven, and the results are terrific. Steam, convection fans, and a broiler combine to cook your food way faster than a traditional oven, and you can get it on Amazon right now for $201, a whopping $299 less than its original price from when it launched last year.

I don’t expect it to be the next Instant Pot in terms of popularity, but anything that saves time in the kitchen is worth a look, in my book.
