This is a fantastic product! It has completely changed what I eat and the way I cook. So very easy to use, so accessible, and all my air fried foods come out perfect every time. I love air frying potatoes, veggie burgers, okra, frozen Trader Joe veggie bites, and just about everything I eat.
I like this oven so much I practically never use my big oven, which takes so long to heat and doesn't cook as evenly even though it is one of those high end name brand ovens that costs 10 times as much as the Smart Oven. And now I actually have two Smart Air ovens side by side that meet all my cooking needs! Just in love with this oven.
The only reason I don't give it 5 stars are two things: The crumb tray is hard to keep clean. I didn't realize fully how delicate it was and that it needed special handling - and to never ever let food drip onto it. Also, my oven malfunctioned a year and 3 months into its life. However, Breville gave me fantastic customer service and replaced my oven promptly with a new oven.
This oven was an excellent purchase. It is so well made and works flawlessly. I recommend this oven to all that is in the market for this appliance. I could not be more pleased.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is our second Breville Oven. After over 15+ years of DAILY use, our first Breville while still operational, was showing signs of age. We certainly received many great years of service from it! When considering another countertop oven, our selection was easy; ANOTHER BREVILLE! When we purchased our new Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro, we were surprised at all the improvements that have been made over the years. The addition of an interior light is really great. It’s super bright and lets you keep an eye on what’s cooking. The Breville quality is still evident as this unit is well built and works wonderfully. We have yet to try all the new features but are looking forward to many delicious meals!
It’s an excellent product. I am loving the convection and air frying capabilities. I’m able to whip up great meals fast. My cast iron pan even fits so my steaks and pork chops are moist and perfectly done.
We are enjoying our new Smart Oven Air Pro from Breville. It is being used in our basement kitchen so far as an extra little appliance down there. Pizza's come out great, Chicken Kiev's too. We tried the air frying function with frozen wings not breaded. They crisped up a bit, but by no means were crispy like fried chicken wings. The thing we did NOT like about air frying function is the clean up is VERY messy, even with the pan underneath the basket. Just be prepared if using that function, it will be messy and as soon as oven is cooled clean it up right away! It's still new, haven't tried all features yet, so far we are happy with the appliance. It is pricey though!
I have really been enjoying my new toaster oven. While I have not had a chance to really use the Air Fry option, I love the fact that it is larger than what I had an I can get a quarter sheet pan in the oven with room to spare. It certainly has a lot more options that I really wanted. I do wish that Breville had more recipes online for the air fry function. Most of what I have found online do not work for this oven.
