There is a wide variety of solar cookers available in the marketplace today. Some designs are easy to build yourself with inexpensive materials, and plans can be found at [[Plans|solar cooker plans]]. Cookers that are available commercially can offer convenience, and are typically constructed from durable materials. Most self-made designs will not be waterproof. Basically, cookers can be divided into three groups: [[:Category:Solar_box_cooker_designs|Box]], [[:Category:Solar_panel_cooker_designs|Panel]], [[:Category:Parabolic_solar_cooker_designs|Parabolic]]. The table below lists strengths and weaknesses of the most common types. Determine which type of cooker might best suit your requirements. It is always best to buy a cooker from a local source since shipping costs can be very expensive.

There is a wide variety of solar cookers available in the marketplace today. Some designs are easy to build yourself with inexpensive materials, and plans can be found at [[Plans|solar cooker plans]]. Cookers that are available commercially can offer convenience, and are typically constructed from durable materials. Self-made designs made from cardboard will often work quite well, but need to be protected from moisture and will not be waterproof. Basically, cookers can be divided into three groups: [[:Category:Solar_box_cooker_designs|Box]], [[:Category:Solar_panel_cooker_designs|Panel]], [[:Category:Parabolic_solar_cooker_designs|Parabolic]].

[[File:HotPot_product_photo,_6-4-14.jpg|left|200px]]
  +
The HotPot is a versatile solar cooker, good for use at RV parks, on the boat, in the backyard, emergency or disaster preparedness, and regular use. Reflectors are made of polished aluminum. The 3 liter (~3 qt.) steel cooking bowl is coated with UV absorbent food grade enamel and comes with a glass lid. Panels can be easily folded for storage. Cooking temperature ranges up to 250°F (120°C).
−
The key design feature of the All Season Solar Cooker is its adjustable, coordinated reflector array. Working from one of two initial orientations "summer/midday" or "winter/morning", it can focus on a solar elevation of 40º to 90º (summer) or 0º to 50º (winter). The cooker accomplishes this while maintaining a level cooking floor at all times. The advantage of the ASSC is that it can efficiently capture the earliest morning sun - starting cooking far earlier than most other designs.

There is a wide variety of solar cookers available in the marketplace today. Some designs are easy to build yourself with inexpensive materials, and plans can be found at solar cooker plans. Cookers that are available commercially can offer convenience, and are typically constructed from durable materials. Self-made designs made from cardboard will often work quite well, but need to be protected from moisture and will not be waterproof. Basically, cookers can be divided into three groups: Box, Panel, Parabolic. The table below lists strengths and weaknesses of the most common types. Determine which type of cooker might best suit your requirements. It is always best to buy a cooker from a local source since shipping costs can be very expensive.

Below you will find a gallery of some featured manufacturers and vendors followed by a complete list of such. To see Manufacturers and vendors by country, first choose a country.
