[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first impression of the Hamilton Beach Air Fryer Toaster Oven is very positive. To be honest, I thought toaster ovens were overrated and kinda redundant but that tells you what I know. I started simple: a pound of frozen French fries to enjoy with some takeout we got while watching the football playoffs this past weekend.
I know that fries aren’t exactly a challenge but it was a way to get acquainted with the oven. Frankly, if it couldn’t handle French fries it wasn’t going to get much attention after that. So I dumped the fries into the basket, choose the setting (air fryer), set the temperature and timer. Done!
The first thing that I noticed was the relative silence. So much so that I got down to eye level to double-check that I chose the correct settings. What a difference from the air fryer we’ve been using for the past couple of years! You can have a conversation or listen to music or the TV without having to raise your voice or the volume. As someone with moderate hearing loss this is worth mentioning.
Also noticeable was the lack of a residual odor after the initial empty oven burn-off. To this day there is a very faint hint of that burning plastic smell when using our air fryer (thankfully it doesn’t affect the taste of the cooked foods).
After 15 minutes it was time to taste the results. Suffice to say, the Hamilton Beach Air Fryer Toaster Oven with Quantum Air Fry™ Technology performed very well at its task.
The preparation (none!), execution, and result were beyond easy and delicious. Cleanup, after cooling, was much simpler than the air fryer we have been using for the last couple of years. The slide out crumb tray is thoughtful and practical. While I’m more function than form, I agree with my wife that the oven is kinda stylish. Unfortunately, kitchen counter space is at a premium in our apartment so some rearranging is necessary to keep it accessible.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very pleased with my new Hamilton Beach Air Fryer Toaster Oven with Quantum Air Fry Technology. I have not tried all five modes yet – Air Fry, Convection Bake, Bake, Broil and Toast. I have air fried some french fries and some shrimp and have been pleased with the outcome in both cases. I am still learning the cook times and temperatures and modes to use for various food items as it is slightly different than the counter top appliance air fryer I have been using. I have a toaster but I did try the Toast function and it worked well so that could be handy with guests to make toast for several people at the same time. I look forward to trying Convection Bake to see if it works better that a similar function on a prior counter top convection oven. The instruction manual seems to recommend hand washing the oven and the racks and other removable components and that is what I have been doing even though I am tempted to put the pan and removable racks in the dishwasher. So far I am very pleased with this oven and like that this one product replaces a toaster oven and an air fryer in my small kitchen. If you are looking for an air fryer and toaster oven, I highly recommend that you consider this one in your evaluation.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This can do it all! It air fries and toasts so I can save countertop space. No more need for a separate air fryer and toaster! It’s also pretty compact in size and doesn’t take up too much space. It provides great crisp when air frying and my toast comes out perfect. It’s very easy to clean up and I like how the symbols are clearly defined on the front glass portion of the appliance. Makes it easy to remember what each symbols means. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a quality air fryer that will make your toaster obsolete.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this Toaster oven with air fryer Makes perfect toast Oven worked good also Air fryer was great I used with French fries they were done in no time about 10 minutes or a little less French fries was evenly brown this unit did a good job The unit is roomy and easy to use Would recommend
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Hamilton Beach Toaster oven is remarkable its ability to throughly cook food evenly throughout is definitely worth the price. I have enjoyed using it several times a week and will continue to do so. As you can see in the pics the sliver finish is amazingly able to fit in just right in almost any kitchen. I would highly recommend picking one of these up for yourself and enjoy all the wonderful food it can create!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this all in one product. It is very easy to set up and use. I like how fast it is to cook food in. It works great for a quick heat up or to make a whole meal with. One downfall is it gets hot quick on the outside but I just make sure to use an oven mitt when opening the door. I would recommend this product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Hamilton Beach Toaster/ Air fryer is a great kitchen appliance. It is stainless steel and adds a warming touch to your kitchen. It saves space because it replaces several appliances for just this one. The knobs are so easy to adjust and the door opens so easy. This toaster oven is a toaster,air fryer. This comes with a tray,a fry basket,and a crumb catcher . You can cook everything from French fries,to steak, vegetables,chicken, toast etc. It has powerful air circulation to evenly brown and crisp food with little to no oil.You can fit a whole chicken, six pieces of toast,a 12 inch pizza etc. This oven has lots of room. I have used all three modes and everyone has worked great. This toaster oven / air fryer is the best appliance to get. I love all it's great features
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off this is a great toaster oven. With temperature control up to 450°F, a timer that goes up to 30 minutes, and the capacity to cook a 12 inch pizza it does everything you would expect from a toaster oven. When you add the convection baking and air fryer capabilities you end up with an awesome appliance! This multitasker is ideal for those who don't have a lot of kitchen counter space to dedicate to a large, stand alone airfryer. I often use an air fryer to heat up snacks and it is so quick and easy now that this toaster oven has earned a permanent spot in my kitchen.
