Customer Reviews for Breville - the Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro - Brushed Stainless Steel
Posted by: Jackie
Verified Purchase:Yes
We purchased this because it was rated as a top air fryer. This device does many things - including ruining 90 percent of the food i put in it. Air frying is definitely something this machine does NOT do well. It will turn your food to mush with a few burned pieces on the outsides.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great product! Poor design
on October 8, 2020
Posted by: Kenosha
First of all this was an upgrade from the pro. I hate that I cannot select the frozen option when on bake whereas I could do so with the pro. I normally cook frozen dinners and would like to be able to have that option. Next the steam/smoke keeps coming out in the from of the unit which is now leaving a dark mark on my counter tops and under my cabinets. It’s a very very poor design. I am not sure if I have a defective item and sure wish I could get an exchange as it makes no sense.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello,
Condensation from the door and the area around the control panel is actually normal with the BOV900 depending on the moisture content of the foods being cooked. It is recommended that there be a minimum of 6 inches of space over top of the oven for proper ventilation which should prevent any issue with the over head cabinets.

Garbage
on May 8, 2022
Posted by: Lawrence
Just threw it in the garbage. The door worked for two weeks then started jamming. Next the heating element broke because the door guide struck it after the guide screw came out. I have had a Breville espresso machine for over a decade. This “oven” is not the same quality. Shameful design.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It's a very expensive toaster oven that requires a lot of clean up after cooking!! Grilling, heating on a cookie sheet in the oven is a lot easier and less hassle than this air fryer!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It’s a great size if you have a big family. We made our thanksgiving ham in it. However it IS very noisy, the outside gets extremely hot so watch out for anything that might be around it because it could melt. Does not cook evenly when using the air frying mode, one side burns. And cleaning is impossible without significantly scratching the drip pan. You can’t use oven cleaner nor chemicals, and scrubbing too hard with a sponge will scratch it. So now it smokes very time I turn it on because it has caked on grease from the ham and the sweet potatoes fries I made.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Best Toaster Oven Ever!
on October 6, 2020
Posted by: Nan
I’ve had this for about a year now, and I rarely use my regular oven! I have baked cakes, pies, cookies, muffins, pizzas, and air fried French fries, wings, cutlets! It’s unbelievable!!!
