The HOT POT™ is comprised of a 3-quart, black-enameled steel pot supported by its rim inside a covered, transparent, tempered glass bowl and polished aluminum reflector panels.

How it Works...

The sun's rays are concentrated by the aluminum reflector and projected through the glass bowl onto the steel pot, which converts solar energy into heat. As there is a half-inch of air space between the steel pot and the glass bowl, heat is retained inside the glass bowl, creating a miniature "greenhouse" effect which maintains cooking temperatures.
