I bought a different Breville Toaster Oven earlier and was thrilled with it. I then found this model which added air frying. I had to have it. I gave my earlier model to a friend and they were also very happy with the unit.
This is my second Breville Oven (lost my first in a custody battle,lol). I wish I hadn't waited so long to replace it. However, this new Smart version with Air Fry is amazing. All the presets make this oven easy enough for my 9 & 10 year olds to use (supervised of course). As for cooking performance, until you get used to it, I wouldn't cook anything as long as the instructions on the food package or recipe say too. You may end up over cooking if you do, as the heat is much more uniform in this oven, and the cooking space being smaller it tends to cook faster than most regular size ovens.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased this oven two years ago. I was happy with all of the functions although several features do not work well. The oven does poorly for toasting. I tried to heat something in a 500 degree dish which shattered. I only use the oven to reheat pizza or use the air fryer. Would love to know how to clean the oven! Would not buy again.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is my second Breville. First one was showing signs of age so decided to get a newer model. Glad I did. Air fryer, a new feature to me works well and have used it for French fries, onion rings and chicken wings. Pizza setting works well. Use it for toast daily and the reheat and warming settings often. A “jack of all trades” appliance is well worth the purchase price.
I've used small ovens for most of my needs for decades. This is my first Breville. I haven't used all the functions yet but the bake, roast and convection works perfectly. I absolutely love that it has an interior light and that you can change the temperature and timing even as you cook. So far it is outperforming my expectations.
