This is an essential appliance

This is my second Breville oven. I loved my last one, buy when this larger one came out I had to have it. I have had it for a couple years now. This counter oven is the most important appliance I own. I use it every day. It is awesome for fries. It is also great to bake muffins and breads. The super convection makes the best frozen pizza and super fluffy biscuits. I frequently use the warm feature for dinner when I am making several different things. I basically stopped using my crock pot, since I can brown stuff in a pot on the stove then I put the pot right from the stovetop into this oven to slow cook. This is so helpful for big meals like at thanksgiving. I cook whole chickens and roast potatoes in this all of the time too. I almost never use my regular oven. I proof bread at 85 degrees, so helpful on chilly days. The temperature is very accurate. The only thing to complain about is that the toast feature takes longer than other machines because it is so big it takes a while to heat up enough to toast. If it is cold, it takes about 5-6 minutes. It does make perfect toast though, even when you are making 8 pieces at a time, they are all perfectly brown. I would never be without this oven, if it breaks out of warrantee, I will buy another the next day. I use a 10x15 size baking sheet, that is the biggest that fits(try the NordicWare Jelly roll pan- it fits perfect.) It takes a little while to get used to convection, but it is definitely worth adjusting your recipes for things like biscuits and pizza. I have to stop, but I could go on.

Cooks Well, Display and Dials Stop Working after a Year

This would be great...if I could select which cooking mode! Used to love this toaster oven air fryer. Unfortunately, the dial doesn't work. You turn it and it won't change the cooking mode, or it will go backwards.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Ana, We are very sorry to hear about the difficulty you're having with your oven. Could you please send us an email to askus@brevilleusa.com? We'd like to start a case with you and assist however we can to get that oven working perfectly for you again
Unfortunately it does a terrible job toasting bread, etc... takes a very long time and usually have to run it more than one cycle, on the highest toasting setting. 10 minutes to wait did an English muffin is ridiculous. I do like the air fryer feature.
Excellent counter top oven. Even has convection in two versions. When air frying, be sure to put pan just below the basket to catch drippings. Also LIGHTLY cover anything to catch the splattering but loose enough allow air to freely circulate around the top of your dish. (sure helps with the cleaning) btw Service from Breville was top notch when I had an issue. If this is even close to what you are looking for, buy it. This is my 2nd or 3rd counter top oven but my first Breville. OUTSTANDING. (disclaimer) No I do not work for Breville nor am I getting anything from them. Just totally impressed.
We received our oven a month ago or so and use it almost every day. We love it. I cook a lot and we only have had one over which is challenging at time. This is a second oven. It does everything our full size oven does and more. The only thing it can't do is fit full size cookie sheets but that's no problem. It pre-heats quickly and cooks fast. I have had to adjust cook times since it does cook fast but the learning curve is not steep. I would highly recommend this to any one looking for a real counter top oven. I also want to comment Breville's quality. I have several Breville appliances and they are all outstanding.
Works like a dream, but a real nightmare to clean.

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is an amazing machine. All of the settings work wonderfully, and as they should. Air fried items come out perfectly crispy, baked items bake quickly with swirling conventional beauty. But oh my, good luck getting it clean. The non-stick tray was almost impossible to clean after air frying a batch of lightly oiled fries (we used it under the air fryer so the oil wouldn’t get on the burners, so much so that I will never use it again without covering it with aluminum foil. But the worst part is the air fry baker. It works well, but it is literally impossible to clean. It has a tiny basket wave structure made of metal, and if you try to scrub it with a sponge you will spend the rest of your short life trying to pick out the hundreds of millions of tiny plastic sponge fibers that have been shredded and stuck into a million tiny mesh eyelets. Oh, and the manual provides no suggestions. But it does say you can’t put the air fry tray in the dishwasher.
