Door does not close tight

Posted by: Darlene
First time I used the oven I noticed the door does not close tight and heat escapes.

As long-time fans of the Breville Mini Smart Oven, we were excited to upgrade to the Smart Oven Air Fryer. We wanted something a bit larger that could replace our regular oven for most meals while still fitting comfortably in our tiny kitchen. The Smart Oven Air Fryer delivered, occupying the same corner as its predecessor while providing significantly more cooking space.
The interface/controls are intuitive and we’ve been absolutely amazed by how quickly and perfectly it cooks a wide variety of foods. While toast takes slightly longer than in our Mini and we miss the "A bit more" button, we appreciate the added convenience of the interior light and the magnetic auto rack eject. Cleaning is a breeze, especially with regular maintenance.
Previous reviewers complained of a loud hum, but ours is silent when it’s not in operation and shockingly quiet during all cook cycles, even those with convection. Only super convection/air fry produces a hum/fan noise.
Our only real complaint is the lack of a "skip preheat" function when adding extra cook time after a cycle ends. This can be frustrating, especially when the oven is already hot.
Overall, we’re thrilled with our Smart Oven Air Fryer. It’s the perfect solution for our small space. Highly recommend!
Cooks well and evenly but takes longer to air fry than other brands. Knobs seem a bit finicky and take a couple of times to turn to get it to move. Outside gets extremely hot unlike other ovens.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Air fryer basket rusts
on April 12, 2024
Posted by: George
Have had for 6 months now. The air fryer basket rusts after couple months of use (It's been top rack dishwasher; only place the basket fits); layering a piece of foil on the bottom defeats the purpose of the air fryer basket, unless you like rust to contact your food. Toaster oven & air fryer heating works great though; you would think at this price, Breville would use a better quality steel for its air fryer basket.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We're very sorry to hear about your experience with your oven. Per the instruction book it's not recommended that any of the parts or accessories for this oven be washed in the dishwasher.
Deducted one star because Air Fryer has no ON/OFF switch. LCD display is always ON. Bought a separate plug build-in switch to remedy the situation. Very satisfies with it with what we cooked for it. Did not use all the features yet.
Bought about 3 weeks ago and use it everyday! Best decision and purchase I've made! I absolutely love it and totally meets my needs. Takes up minimal space, doesn't heat up the room like my oven does. The clean up is super easy as well. Very pleased and highly recommend this quality oven!!
