Great when it worked but.....

I've owned this oven for a few years and loved it (I previously had a smaller Breville oven with less features) until it started to have problems. First the oven door stopped closing properly (my husband found out online that this is a frequent complaint) but we still used the oven. Then the oven - after preheating - would make a popping noise. Whenever that happened, the oven would go back to the preheating mode with the timer flashing but the time would not decrease so....I had no idea how long something was cooking. I would have to open the door and shut it again for the oven to continue cooking properly. But now, the popping noise happens quite often during a cooking cycle and it's silly to keep opening and closing the door. I can use a separate timer but.....really? I expected more from Breville.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Takes 2x time to make toast than beloved Breville toaster oven. Takes practice to learn how to use the air fryer as lots of different air fries on market and all cook differently. I got so wouldn’t have to have 2 appliances on counter, but takes a lot of cleaning time with multiple trays to catch basket. Tried parchment paper to reduce but it allows moisture build up. Found tip to open door if see moisture build up, which works, but doesn’t keep air temp throughout oven when you do that. Was nice to use as oven when our AC was out.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The best oven in its class ( But air frying 🤔)
on June 24, 2023

This is our 2nd Breville oven we use every feature EXCEPT the air fryer we used it once and compared to the dedicated air fryer’s from other brands this is impossible to clean afterwards. Especially when fat from chicken hits the coils above there’s no good way to effectively clean it . However the roasting feature is my favorite. For a small appliance it’s extremely consistent. We love all our Breville products. Waiting for their pizza oven to come down in price.
We gained the air fry function but the toaster oven isn't as good. We now have to set it to 5 for some what toasted toast.

3 years old but hinge just broke

I use this more than my oven. The convenience is amazing. We broil, air fry, bake meals… I don’t use this for baking cookies and cakes because for some reason it doesn’t bake baked goods evenly. I am now looking replace due to I’m afraid the door will shatter because of the hinge being broken. I am debating getting a Breville or a Ninja.

It’s pretty good, but….

I love this air fryer. You can cook literally everything! But it bothers me that it doesn’t come with an anti dripping tray besides the crumb tray, so when you are cooking, you are going to have to clean the bottom before it sticks to the oven; I can’t find any accessories to fix that problem either.

Great until it isn’t

This was my 2nd Breville toaster oven. The first one lasted for 6+ years and we loved it so much that we bought a bigger one. This one has lasted for about 2 years before the door stopped closing the entire way leaving a gap and making it so the door sensor turns the oven off and has become unreliable and inconsistent. When it worked….it was awesome but it seems like lesser quality than older version since it only lasted a short time.
