As the previous owner of a Brevelle oven ( BOV860BSS), this one is a good bit larger and perhaps more heavy duty. We've done everything from air frying hot dogs to a full beef Wellington with great results every time. Also, it seems that the convection fan has been ruggedized, which may have been a weak point in the old one. Our 13" pizza stone works fine as does the cutting board from the previous unit. Very impressed.
I originally bought this because I wanted an air fryer, but I use very little of the function because it doesn’t produce expected results. However, everything else of this oven is wonderful — from toasting to roasting, and I use it every day. This oven makes cooking such a joy.
Multi functional, toast, air fry bake etc. Difficult to clean after something like chicken wings
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good oven

But there is a door gap visible from top. It's less than 1/4 inch but smoke comes from that gap when cooking. Looks like it can't be closed all the way because of round rubber stoppers on the door. Is it supposed to have that door gap?

On my second Breville and thought it would be a great idea to have the Air Fryer option. Well not such a good idea with this model. Makes a mess in the oven and nothing filter the air like many others - so the house smells like something was burning. After an hour of cleaning and all, back to basics for this oven.
I had the smaller Smart Oven Compact and long story short...I bought this and OH MY GOSH!! I am so glad I did! I LOVE the light, and the convection feature is fantastic. I especially like the larger size and the fact that you can cook a frozen pizza! Highly recommend!!!
It's is really easy to use, much easier than I thought it would be. Each day I'm learning to do something new with the oven. I especially like the toast and air fry feature, but there is a convection oven, broiler, and several other functions.
