🤔 Does this oven have a dehydrator setting on it as well? I'm looking to buy an oven, and I have seen some with the dehydrator setting on them. This would be less gadgets in the kitchen and more counter space if it does. Thank you @MarkWladika

[@trustbuster23]

I have had a Breville for several years now. It does perform very well and we use it almost every day, but you should expect the convection fan will die long before the rest of the oven does. Fortunately, you can turn the convection fan off and use the oven normally when that inevitably happens. But if you look into it, you find out that the fan is a well known defect, very common with these ovens. On ours, the buttons on the oven are now starting to go bad, so despite the very high price, it is not long for this world. It is rather disappointing that build quality/long term reliability is not part of this evaluation, because the Breville is so expensive it really should not just perform well but be screwed together well too. It definitely isn't. We will be replacing it with something else when it dies. Call me old fashioned, but I expect quality at this price point.

Yeah, and you should, wish it would last a decade

Got my Brevelle Smart Oven Air Fryer at Canadian Tire on sale for $375 Canadian dollars. It normally retails in Canada for $490. First thing I got it to do was make french fries and chicken drumsticks. This oven is unbelievably flexible. This ovens air frying feature is so good that it even rivaled the better dedicated air fryers like those made by Philips....... 6 months later, my door mysteriously shattered after gently closing the door. I found out later, this oven was being recalled by Brevelle for door replacement.

[@leatherindian]

I just bought a top end Breville Toaster Oven you recommended and I’m astounded that you didn’t mention that the metal an inch away from the handle gets hot enough to give second degree burns. When you grab the handle, your fingers are less than a quarter inch away from that surface. I checked the temperature of that area and it exceeded 140 degrees in many spots which is hot enough for second degree burns.. Despite it working perfectly, we will return it.

[@robfl07]

I’ve had the smaller Breville toaster oven for over 6 years and still love it. It won’t fit a whole chicken like the larger one reviewed here, but is great for pizzas, toasting sandwiches and other smaller items (roasting chicken pieces) and takes up a lot less counter space!

[@Ibiki]

Thanks for updating the old reviews

[@RodneyFisk]

I have the Breville and I can attest to its cooking chops. It cooks so consistently, that I can cook the same item for the same time and temp every single time and achieve the exact same results. It remembers the last settings for each cooking mode, so if you cook a particular thing all the time, you just push start and insert the pan. Very much worth the money.

[@rpols22]

Btw, I do have the previous model of this breville toaster oven. It is everything they say it is. Hands down the best toaster oven I have ever owned and I would buy it again in a heartbeat. One thing to remember though.... as good as this is, it is not a traditional oven and do not use it as such. You will wear it out. Its fine for the occasion small roast chicken or frozen french frys, tator tots, etc. But do not use this to cook things you would/should in a traditional oven on a regular basis. It will fail on you as mine did. My wife use to cook things that had long cook times (in my opinion, long cook times for a toaster oven constitutes anything at or around 20 minutes) almost daily. I think the high temps and long cook times fried the circuit board cuz the oven setting doesn't work anymore. Toaster setting still works great but the roast/bake setting is inoperable.

[@HappyTrailz2u]

SO sorry ... but y'all need to go BACK and do some re-testing. I just checked out your recommendations and it looks like the Breville, Cuisinart, AND the Caphalon ALL have TERRIBLE reviews on Amazon! All these brands started out really well but after the warranty times they almost completely started failing. BUT ... The De’Longhi Livenza Digital True Convection Oven DID have some really GOOD reviews so I will probably be purchasing THAT one in the near future. My Oster has been a REAL disappointment but I'm trying to get a bit more use out of it. Thanks for all your reviews ... I really do enjoy them and they are really helpful.

[@LA70S]

Since I watched this the first time, I have read a lot of reviews on this oven. Lots of people are very unhappy that the Breville oven has broken down and had to trash it after a year or so. Now, I don't know what to buy since my old toaster oven that I had for 15 yrs finally died. It was a Hamiliton Beach with concpvection that cooked beautifully. But, that model is no longer made. Since this review is only a couple years old I would have purchased this oven. But, the recpviews by actual buyers aren't so good.

[@PamOrl]

I also own the Breville. I like it so much I’m tempted to buy another as back-up in case they decide to “improve” the model. It’s perfect as is. One thing they didn’t mention...it has a pop-out space that allows a 12” pizza or large round dinner plate to fit inside. Well worth the money!

[@Raz0rsedg3]

I bought this brand oven (don't know if it is the same model) around the time this video was made. I love it. I do many different things with it, but most often I'm toasting bread slices. I recently did a week stint house sitting where there was a Wolf toaster oven. I could not believe how badly it did the simple task of toasting bread. On dark setting, one side was slightly over toasted while the under side was still white.. And it took over 10 minutes to produce that result. I am so glad I bought that Breville.

We love our Breville for all the reasons stated in the vid, but the start/stop button needs several pushes to activate the machine (sometimes 20 or 30). We've had this part replaced under warranty and three more times on our own (it's not that expensive to replace), but every replacement has the same issue. BUT, we still love the toaster oven and would recommend it to anyone in the market.

I know this is about a year old, but I did see your recent (Aug 2020) ATK online review of “air-fryer” toaster ovens and the Breville Smart Over Air was your winner. However that oven has gotten some pretty negative reviews on their web site (and Williams-Sonoma) for leaking grease, smoke and condensation happing around the controls, some the buttons and fails sticking, and the oven’s fuse failing. I hope you can go back and review these toaster ovens with the air-fryer function (the Breville, Cuisinart, Ninja Foodie, etc.) and really put them through their paces. Being they range from $300-$400 that is a huge investment. BTW: I have a15 year old Aroma Toaster oven that still performs as well as when I first used it, but I’m doing research for when it finally quits. Thanks ATK!!!!

[@chrisp5526]

I like the breville air smart oven. I read online where reviews state that the winning model breaks often, due to an element overheating. The upgrade to the breville air oven fixes that problem, I think; it keeps a fan blowing to circulate the air after the oven is done cooking, which dissipates the heat. The upgraded breville fan can also move more air, with a ‘super convection’ feauture, so the fan is probably built stronger/more durable, or at least I hope so. I bought mine at Bed Bath Beyond when it was on discount, and I used their 20% off coupon, so my smart oven cost the same as the winning model.

I have the Breville Smart Oven Air. Best kitchen investment next to my Vitamix.

[@robertmccoy9901]

That's one I'm looking at.

The 30 second mark shows a flaw in that model that I would find disqualifying. The oven door sprang back up toward the back of the tester’s fingers and if it had been hot and touched them it would have burned them. Oven doors that are OPEN should lay flat (or maybe they could make them slide under and out of the way) and not sprint back up.

I buy odd-sized bread, so I toast in my Cuisinart toaster oven a lot. I also bake and reheat foods that do not spatter, since cleaning the inside of an oven isn't just wiping it away. Microwaves do a terrible job of cooking/heating proteins, and the toaster oven does it well.

I've owned the "winner" oven for about 5 years. If this is as good as it gets, then other ovens are absolute trash. The Breville's dial knobs work intermittently. Sometimes while turning it up, it actually goes down, or jumps 10 clicks, or down 15 clicks, or shuts everything off. It's as random as a magic 8-ball. Every single knob has this strange problem. Even the push-buttons do weird things. Also, it cooks a little unevenly. I cook bacon trays in the oven a lot, usually the bacon is cooked in the back, and raw in the front. I can work around this, but something worth mentioning.

I have purchased 5 of the breville ovens . I own 3 myself. They are incredible.

I bought a Black and Decker Crisp and Fry from Costco recently……it’s back at the store! Breville here I come. More than I wanted to spend, but in this case it will be worth it I’m sure.

Looks like a great deal especially if you can avoid using a full-sized oven. If a Dutch oven fit it would be a great tool for slow braising

Very good video......I'm shopping for a new one now......Just buried my 1979 Toastermaster the other day; it was a very reliable piece of equipment for 41 years of almost constant use.....no doubt it was made here in the USA.....now...it seems it's just a crapshoot as to what I buy, as far as reliability goes.

[@josephhaynes3017]

I own it and agree ! Has slow cook and pizza settings. I rarely use my full oven anymore.

Hi, i hope someone from americas test kicthen will read this. :D When a white bread toastes way faster, a rye or another bread that has 0 percent of white wheat flour, its need a dark setting to make the bread toast the same rate as white bread. I think, because rye starch transfer to sugar slower than wheat.

This was a scientific review, best ever for any product i have ever watched

[@daveninjaneuro7089]

Love my toaster oven/air fryer. Saves energy and is quicker than my range.

[@edsan9788]

I have a combination toaster/convection oven I recieved as a gift and I love it

[@ScooterFXRS]

A year ago I went shopping for a toaster oven and wound up with the Farberware Air Fryer Toaster Oven. Works well for me.

[@ruthgumataotao1792]

Very informative. Didn't know there different burners. You touched on a couple of issues I have with my year old(with extended warranty🙄) toaster oven, longer cooking time and temperature setting off vs my oven. I know what I will be looking at for my next toaster oven. Thank you.

[@AereForst]

Majority of Amazon reviews of this product seem to suggest that it usually doesn’t last more than 2 years…

[@karenhunter9067]

My convection fan stopped 2 years ago but the oven is fine and it is 6 years old.
