I love my rotisserie and I'm sure other owners do as well, but being the nerd that I am, I want to now more about them and the slight changes that have been made over the years.
I had one that I sold to G$ that I never took pictures of and it had enough differences that we surmised it might be aftermarket. After seeing Harris's, I know believe it was just older. I hope G$ can take some pics of his for this thread.
The main differences were the tabs and the motor attachment.
The tabs were squared off and not rounded, like mine. The motor was metal cased and used this style attachment. (Pic stolen from the internet)
The second style is the one I own and it has rounded tabs, a plastic housing to the motor and slides into place. I believe this is the most common style.
The new style that I am seeing in the stores now has no tabs at all. It has a formed ridge around the bottom and looks like it might seal better than the old styles. (Again, pic stolen from the internet.
What I would like from this thread is pics of your roti's, boxes, catalogs, and any facts or wild speculation about the timeline of these changes.
Feel free to nerd out.
