Our take
PKMFT028 is a two-tier cooker whose main decision is whether the different controls on each level suit the buyer. The lower oven has selectable Toast, Bake, Broil, and Rotisserie routines. The upper section has a timer and fixed power with no mode switch in the guide. Treating both as independently adjustable ovens would overstate the evidence.
For a buyer wanting lower-tier Toast/Bake/Broil/Rotisserie and a separate fixed-power warming/cooking space..
Not for a verified Convection function, two independently temperature-controlled zones, confirmed simultaneous cooking, pizza diameter, or a historical-ASIN/current-offer match.
Pros & cons
What could work for you, and what to consider before buying.
What works in its favor
- The exact page lists separate 14 qt upper and 28 qt lower volumes.
- The owner guide describes lower-tier Toast, Bake, Broil, and Rotisserie procedures.
- The model sources give electrical ratings, dimensions, and four-inch spacing.
What to weigh up
- The upper tier is timer-only and fixed-power in the manual.
- No slice count, pizza diameter, or inner opening is given.
- A Stay On rotisserie cycle needs manual checking and does not auto-stop by time.

What the features mean for you
Two volumes, but not two identical ovens
NutriChef/Pyle lists a 14-quart upper compartment and a 28-quart lower one, for 42 quarts combined by addition. Those capacities do not show the usable shelf openings or tell which pans fit. The guide separates lower-oven Toast/Bake/Broil/Rotisserie directions from an upper section labeled Bake/Broil. Its control description says the upper space runs from an on/off switch and timer at fixed power without mode selection. A maker-page reference to independent zone timers does not establish independent upper temperature or mode control.
The lower tier handles the selectable cooking
The lower oven lists Toast, Bake, Broil1, Broil2, and Rotisserie. Toast is suggested at 350°F after preheating. Bake cycles both elements to maintain the chosen temperature. Broil calls for MAX, a 15-minute preheat, and an upper rack position. Rotisserie uses 450°F and a drip tray. The guide describes a separate 15-minute preheat for the upper section, but it does not give that tier an independently chosen temperature or mode. Do not infer a simultaneous-use recipe from the two chambers.
Plan for the electrical load and open counter
The exact page and owner guide state 120 V, 60 Hz, and 1,780 W, household use, and a polarized plug. The manual recommends that the oven be the only appliance operating on its circuit. The maker page gives dimensions of 18.7 by 14.8 by 17.7 inches and a weight of 26.2 pounds. The guide calls for four inches of open space on the sides, back, and top and says not to store items above the hot or operating appliance. Verify both counter location and circuit before purchase.
Timed use has a Stay On exception
The product page describes timed operation up to 60 minutes with automatic shutoff. The guide also gives a Stay On option for rotisserie cooking beyond an hour and directs users to check the oven after the intended interval. That exception requires manual attention and should not be described as an automatic stop. The sources do not explain a simultaneous cooking routine, so this should not be treated as proof that both tiers can safely complete separate dishes at once.
A better fit for a specific two-tier routine
Choose PKMFT028 when the lower tier's documented modes are useful and the simpler upper compartment still has a job in the kitchen. Do not rely on the old title's Convection wording: the exact guide does not describe a convection setting or fan. It also gives no bread-slice maximum, pizza diameter, measured interior opening, or named pan fit. The tagged search uses the exact model, not the old ASIN, and maker-listed accessories do not prove the seller's package.
What else to compare
Compare a single-cavity oven when one adjustable temperature range is more useful than the PKMFT028's two different compartments.
Before you buy
How are the two tiers different?
The lower tier has selectable modes and temperature; the upper guide describes a timer-only, fixed-power section without a mode switch.
Does PKMFT028 document Convection?
No. The saved exact-model guide does not show a Convection setting or fan procedure.
What capacity does the maker give?
The page lists 14 quarts for the upper tier and 28 quarts for the lower, but no pizza diameter or slice maximum.
What outlet and circuit should I plan for?
The sources state 120 V / 60 Hz / 1,780 W and recommend this oven be the only appliance on its circuit.
Can the rotisserie run on a timed automatic stop?
For longer than an hour, the guide directs the user to Stay On and to check the oven manually.

The decision
Choose PKMFT028 for its lower-tier functions and distinct upper section only when the fixed-power limitation is acceptable.
