I purchased this Breville Toaster Oven to replace an old toaster oven I purchased at a yard sale many years ago. This Breville Toaster Oven is awesome. It has replaced my toaster, toaster oven, and air fryer. This Breville Toaster Oven also has a convection oven and dehydrates. This little toaster oven can do almost anything.
I have been using Breville toaster ovens many, many years. Never had a problem. This new one has created a new kitchen for me. I have not used all functions yet but what I have used has given me the same satisfaction and covered all of my expectations... just like before - Five *****. I am going to use the roasting feature this week and hopefully the air fryer. I do cook a lot but am taking my time learning....and have no question in my mind that as I get to each feature I will enjoy using every one of them. Thanks for making such wonderful products... By the way I didn't know you made other products and am planning on making another purchase.... perhaps a food processer... next.
We bought the Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro to replace a perfectly good toaster oven that we'd had for probably 12 years! The Smart Oven looks better on our counter and has many more features. I've started searching for air fryer recipes and have made 8-10 recipes in the few weeks since our purchase. It cooks faster and with less oil for most items, so that's a big plus. We never deep-fried anything anyway, so that wasn't a reason for our purchase. It's great not to have to turn on our big oven and the pre-heat function is so much quicker than on the regular oven. I downloaded the Breville app for recipes but so far haven't found it to be very useful. I wish the little book that came with the oven had included more basic recipes. Most recipes I find online for an air fryer are geared toward the bucket-type appliance so I have to make some adjustments. All in all, we're very happy with it. One day the display window went blank and we thought it was broken. After unplugging it and plugging it back in, everything re-set and was fine. It's a very nice oven, but rather pricey so not something everyone would consider buying if they want a toaster oven/air fryer.
I bought this Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer for my boyfriend (life partner) for his birthday. He was so impressed with my Breville Smart Oven that he wanted to get one. He loves how it works; all its features and air frying option. He recently made a delicious pizza in it; cooked to perfection!
This oven was the right fit for our kitchen both on form and function. Highly recommend. The output is as expected or better. I am still leaning some of the quirks - when you set temp and time, when it reaches temp - it starts counting down right away. Maybe there is a setting for this. All in all good purchase and good value.
