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.
When we moved, we wanted to free up some counter space. So, after owning a Breville toaster oven for many years (and loving it!) and a separate air fryer, it made sense to upgrade to the Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro. We are so glad we did! We love our Breville!
We’ve been using this Smart Oven for weeks and always have been impressed. All the options work great. Easy to clean, too. This oven was recommended by a friend.
Such an awesome buy! We're so glad we chose this style of oven. Easy to use. easy to keep clean, has not failed us yet. If your looking for an air fryer and oven in one, this is the one to research. Hands down you will pick this product. Have not turned on our stove once since we got this and have stored our two air fryers.
