I tried my Gosun for the first time this weekend. First I heated water for tea. It is a learning curve of knowing where in my yard to put it for optimal convenience with no shading from the sun (and our moving Earth). Worked great, the water was painful to my finger when I tested it after 30 or so minutes. It took that long because I accidentally had a little shade in that time. Next I heated some garlic toast. I left it in there for well over an hour and it came out crispy. Hard to believe that food in an enclosed tube can become crispy and not soggy. There is a tiny airhole in the cap (purposely) but still I was surprised the bread was nice and crisp. It is quite small, only good for one person, in my opinion. Appetizer sized courses and 1.5-2 cups of water can be heated in there. But it heats so quickly that you could make one item and pop the next food in there to cook as you are enjoying the first course. Pretty cool!

It's a bit smaller then I expected but works great!

My GoSunGo shipped super quickly and arrived before I was expecting it. The tube itself is intact, and by all appearances the Go is brand new- it still had the protective covering on the mirrored panels and everything- but there are a couple of scratches on the coating between the layers of glass, so it won't be as efficient as it should be. I'm not too fussed about it, since I mostly just want this thing for boiling water and I got it on sale; it's not worth the hassle and expense of going through a return. I do find it relevant, though, that the GoSun Sport Pro I bought directly from GoSun arrived in immaculate condition.

Really good sale find, though. I'm happy with the 38% off.

I am a believer in solar ovens, for fun, preparedness and camping.

I have a 5" evacuated tube oven I purchased on Amazon and really like it, but it is large and with the reflector takes up quite a bit of space.

I wanted something small and packable to take hiking and the sort. The Gosun Go fit that bill.

Taking into account that it is small and you won't be making large meals with it, I really like it. If you take into account the payoff of size vs capacity it can be a great tool.

Make a couple of hotdogs for the kid and other similar size items, it is great! Kid can be playing at the park while some snacks or a small meal is cooking. No fires, charcoal or other fuels required.

The price is rather high, but the quality is good. All the pieces work well.

For disaster preparedness you will want a larger solar oven, but if you know it's limitations and strengths it can be a handy and fun tool to make a nice hot snack or small meal on the go.

Such a cool product. So fun to use. Easy to attach to a backpack and use while hiking. Single serving but that comes with the smaller size. I used it about 5 times in the first 2 days of owning it because it's so fun to use.
