HONEST REVIEW OF THE BREVILLE SMART OVEN AIR FRYER PRO - 6 MONTHS LATER

[@apples.oranges]

Just buy it!!!!!! We purchased the smaller oven about 10 years ago. About 3 weeks ago my husband purchased this one since he’s the cook now. These Brevelles are built to WORK!!!!!!!! Will not heat up the house. The big one sits in the big kitchen and the smaller one in the small kitchen. Prior owner wanted two kitchens! We love our Brevelles!!!!! Buy one for kids or grandkids wedding gifts. I promise they will use it!!!!

[@everythingbutpasta]

you love yours as much as I do ;)

[@h.al.8801]

Manufacturers need to make the interior nonstick to grease, that will allow easier cleanup. Itried to clean up, but through time, grease wins, and I end buying another one.

[@zeldafitzgerald4149]

GTFO two kitchens when most cant afford a tiny house.

[@philochristos]

I bought one today. I can't wait to use it. I'm happy to hear it can hold 80ºF. That's perfect for making starter and proofing dough.

[@everythingbutpasta]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@XE-4]

Great review. Clear, thorough and balanced. One tip - rotate remind is for cooking with 2 trays, reminding you to switch the top tray to the bottom and bottom to top, mainly because a bottom tray shields the direct/radiant heat from the elements while the top tray gets full exposure. The trays don't need to be spun around as shown in the video because the oven produces very uniform heat from the front to the back of the cavity, especially when using convection or super convection/air fry.

[@nntflow7058]

I notice that air frying is better if you rotate it though. The results are way more even. Especially with thinner french fry.

[@salocin911]

Love the review... can't stress what a time saver always covering the bottom liner sheet with tin foil. Our Breville is 8 yrs old and the liner pan looks practically brand new.

[@everythingbutpasta]

Agree! The rest of the Breville has some wear but the liner pan looks pretty much like the day I bought it

[@ILOLnumber1]

My beloved little toaster oven of 20 years, yup, 2 full decades, is finally near its end. I've been scouring the internet, researching all the different kinds of toaster ovens with air fryers because after 20 years, I feel like I deserve an upgrade. 😂 This has, by far, been the most thorough, realistic, and pragmatic review I've seen so far. And I've now seen a ton!! 🥴😂

[@everythingbutpasta]

Thanks for this! Hope whatever new one you buy works out for another 20 years

[@ILOLnumber1]

@everythingbutpasta Thanks so much for your encouragement because I take a ridiculously long time researching (and soul searching if I'm totally honest 😂), making sure no stone is left unturned. Also, this is a big investment for me! 😬

[@XE-4]

Another tip - when dehydrating multiple baskets at a time I pull out the crumb tray a half inch to let the steam escape without losing much heat. This prevents condensation gathering on the glass and sides and eventually pooling around the feet.

[@respectbigman3133]

After a coupon years the door spring will go. If that goes everything shot. Imas there is a switch that the handle rest on to make the temperature timer works. It will just flash and the. I cannot regulate your temperature . It’s easy to fix if someone is handy. You have to buy an after market spring as u cannot get it from breville. Breville wants u to buy a new oven. It’s simple fix. The new pro is just to add price it is exactly the same with an app. It’s not like ur controlling any major function. So save yourself the $100. It’s the same as the one 5yrs ago . Nothing change as the app is not a functional feature .

[@everythingbutpasta]

Thanks for the tip

[@kirstenveneziano1205]

I got this air fryer a little over a year ago and love it as much as you do. I never use my oven anymore. The only problem with my Breville is the turn reminder doesn't work at the halfway point. It allows the food to cook 2/3 of the way and then reminds me to turn the food. I especially like the cauliflower roasted on the airfry basket without oil. It makes the vegetables so much better when roasted that way.

[@everythingbutpasta]

Yum! Airfried cauliflower is amazing in the air fryer. Agree with you about the timing of the turn reminder

[@mfb6310]

Thank you for your honest review, very helpful. You might be even more happy that you have a stainless steel vs plastic air fryer. It seems people are finding out how much plastics is ending up in their food. I don't know about the science of this worry, but I'm not going to get a plastic one, just in case. And I love my breville blender, it's excellent in its designed shape so I'm glad to hear this oven is a winner too!

[@everythingbutpasta]

I’m glad you found it helpful!

[@blokeabouttown2490]

I just bought one of these at Harvey Norman here in Australia for $481AUD (about $315 USD), they were on special. I have no experience using an air fryer. I found your review really useful in showing the different things that you do with the air fryer. I have a lot of tomatoes from my garden and using it to make dried tomatoes is a really good idea.

[@everythingbutpasta]

I’m working on a new video that shows what I cooked in a month using mine so that should be out soon and will show the versatility

[@alicewistrand210]

I bought a nonstick mat for bottom of this oven and just easily wash with soap and water as needed. The only feature I don’t like on this oven Is the toaster. It takes much more time than a regular toaster to toast bread . I’ve had this for 4 yrs and use in place of my oven. I got mine through rewards points at work so it’s been a great gift.

[@everythingbutpasta]

If by non-stick mat you mean a silicone mat, I used to do that too but I found it discolours over time and I didn’t like that. That’s when I switched to tinfoil. I agree, the toaster feature is quite slow but I prefer it to having another appliance on my counter

[@lisalilge9765]

Thank you for this great review! It has given me so many ideas of what to cook! Just got mine and am reading the manual. Just a couple of notes: Around 58 seconds into your video you mention lining the crumb tray with tinfoil. On page 3 "Important Safeguards" it says not to do this to the crumb tray or any part of the oven as it will cause overheating. Then around 1:10 you say to make sure to have 1 inch of clearance. In the manual it actually says 4" on the sides and 6" above.

[@livelaughandlove299]

she doesn't know what she's talking about. Follow the manual

[@looktoHim499]

Those two discrepancies caught my attention as well. No foil. 4 inch clearance on sides and back and 6 in on top. 👍

[@JC-zy5gg]

I just bought mine and just read the manual so I was 😮when she said to lined with tin foil and only 1” .

[@JaneDoe42011]

I love mine so much. I rarely use my big oven any longer, except for Christmas baking.

[@albeal9213]

Young lady thank you for this review. I have been Eye'ing this unit for awhile but unfortunately I am on a "VERY" limited budget. You have given me an incentive to stash some funds away for a future purchase. Never the less, thank you for your video. I hhave subscribed and and look forward to more. avb

[@everythingbutpasta]

You are so welcome!

[@computer__eyez]

Thank you. this helps me make an informed decision… between the other two i’m looking at: Cosori & Cusinart Outside of baking, frying, roasting & toasting… I’m interested in the dehydrator function for raw vegan meals. I have the excalibur dehydrator.. but I’m going minimalistic, need gadgets that can do multiple.

[@everythingbutpasta]

You’re welcome!! Glad you found it helpful

[@JaneDoe42011]

My first one lasted almost exactly 5 years before it started dying. That was with using it multiple times a day, every single day. I happily(sort of) spent the $500 again, the oven is THAT good.

[@everythingbutpasta]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@Cocoatreat]

My breville smart oven just died…..its not the same as the air fryer pro…….i know that it is the fuse….i know i can change it….but i just dont feel like it…..so i spent the money & bought this one!! Can’t wait to try it! I loved my old breville….and I haven’t used my oven in years~

[@mulciberus]

Thank you for your excellent review. In considering purchasing this I noted that the maker warns against putting foil in the crumb-catch pan because, they say, it will cause the unit to overheat. I suspect if you place the foil matte side up it won't make a difference, but I've no confirmation of that.

[@everythingbutpasta]

I just finished filming my cleaning video and if the alternative is cleaning the bottom crumb catcher vs replacing with tin foil, it’s a risk I’m willing to take. However I always put it matte side up as you pointed out

[@MichaelGallegos]

Thank you for the visual tip of putting parchment paper down on the air fryer basket to cook potatoes. I did not like how the oil dripped off without it

[@everythingbutpasta]

Glad it helped you!

[@TimHPop776]

The oil is a fantastic move. The oil helps cook faster by the oil raising the temp. It also gives a lovely finish to most fours; ie, veggies!

[@everythingbutpasta]

All good points!

[@chefevilee9377]

Great review I’m sold! As I pointed out in another video if you put the boiling tray under things you’re cooking it will collect most of the drips. Then that way your oven won’t get so drip on!

[@everythingbutpasta]

Great tip. Thanks for sharing

[@isabelgaynor2589]

I began with a quality basket style air fryer and now am sure this Breville will be a very sensible upgrade. *** I have a question?*** I'll be placing this on a heavy duty wire rack system that is 18" deep. How deep of a shelf does this need to go on so I don't end up bending the door hinges? I guess I will have a piece of strong plywood cut to go underneath the entire oven. Your recommendation was really helpful. A new subscriber.

[@everythingbutpasta]

I’m not sure how deep the shelf would need to be but at least the depth of the oven. I’d try to get the shelf into studs though for max strength

[@1francie]

I bought the smaller version of this and so far I am impressed. I would have loved to have gotten the larger one but am limited with counter space. It was just a little less expensive than the larger one so if you have the space, the larger one is a better buy.

[@everythingbutpasta]

Totally agree. If you can make it work, go for the bigger one

[@AlvaSudden]

That is a fantastic looking loaf of bread 7:25 You are truly an artist.

[@everythingbutpasta]

Thanks! It’s a no knead bread. I can share the recipe in a future video

[@chefevilee9377]

Oh I forgot one of the reasons why I need a toaster oven per say is because I live in the deep South. It just saves so much money not heating up our house with a big oven. I make lots of food from scratch like you so it really helps with our electric bill. Why don’t you make pasta?

[@everythingbutpasta]

Personal preference ;)

I bought a Breville oven just before Covid. Used it 3 times a day everyday for the last 3+ years. The fan has quite on it, however it still cooks. Well worth the money. I came here to looked at reviews as I’m looking to buy the air fryer feature.

Hope the review helped you make a decision

[@joeyjojo9135]

@@everythingbutpasta yes it had. Just ordered one. And waiting for Amazon delivery. Thank you again!

[@sajehill]

Thank you fo the great review. Does the oven make good toast, evenly brown on both sides? And does it have a crumb tray that is easy to remove and clean? Also, is it quiet?

[@everythingbutpasta]

I find the toast browns evenly as long as it’s on the correct rack. Crumb tray, yes and easy to clean. It’s no louder than my kitchen fan except for when it beeps to let you know it’s done or ready to rotate

[@EdMelando]

Hi, I'm new to air frying but my kids bought me the Breville air fryer so i'm looking forward to using it. Your review is very helpful. I have a question. When you refer to different foods cooked in your "air fryer" are you using the air fryer function or other functions in the "airfryer" like baking, roasting etc. The reason im asking is can I use a glass receptacle when using the air frying function or does that impede the circulation so foods won't fry properly? Thank You

[@everythingbutpasta]

I do a bit of everything but when I want to air fry something I always use the basket. If I’m just baking or roasting I don’t use the basket

[@iw1328]

Thanks for your nice video, I just bought mine and can’t wait to try it. Wondering if Breville have larger capacity selling in south east Asia? 😅

[@everythingbutpasta]

You’re welcome. Hope it works great for you!! I’m not sure if the capacity size changes based on location unfortunately

[@hadiakhan821]

Hi please do a video about how you clean your air fryer.

[@everythingbutpasta]

Will be working on that shortly!

[@veroniquevenning2083]

Great review! How good a job does it do dehydration? I thought you need around 30degrees to dehydrate food.

[@everythingbutpasta]

It does a decent job dehydrating if you only have one or two trays in. Normal dehydration is around 100f which is 37 C. The higher you go, the faster it will dehydrate but risks burning and there is nutritional impacts too but I’m not an expert on that

[@tomunderwood4283]

Why not just use the full size oven? (Serious question. I’m thinking of getting a Breville air fryer but I’m thinking is it redundant to my convection oven.)

[@everythingbutpasta]

Heats up faster and seems to cook faster than my convection oven. And presumably using less energy to heat (though I haven’t tested it scientifically)

[@reallyoldsubdude387]

@@everythingbutpasta I am trying to remember this from 40 years ago, Heat = U a ∂T or M c ∂T in basic terms a=area, m=mass the two variables, So what is bigger and uses more heat? I have the oven and only use my big oven for really big stuff. If that helps.

[@aussielass5621]

What are the measurements for the shelf racks supplied with airfryer?

[@VideoGuyHawaii]

Nice review. Thanks. What size is the Silpat sheet you use in the Air Fryer tray? I'm always thinking I'm reducing air flow. Doesn't the sheet or parchment paper reduce the required clearance?

[@everythingbutpasta]

I don’t generally use the silpat in the air fryer tray (may have done it once) for that exact reason - airflow. But it does fit an 9x13 one.

[@tmod5257]

Can you just melt butter or chocolate and reheat a cup of coffee in this? Thank you!

Yes you can melt/reheat. There is actually a reheat feature

Hello! Thank you for this review. Im researching for an air fryer that is non-toxic. Are all the interior stainless steel?

[@dannymcneal]

Thank you for your personal in-depth review. Lots of very helpful information to know about. I am also considering this one because of its versatility and Breville’s solid reputation. Not so wild about the footprint, but perhaps I can make that work. And, as always, you get what you pay for. Thanks again!

[@everythingbutpasta]

Thanks!

[@dannymcneal]

@@everythingbutpasta - I actually own eight Breville kitchen appliances, and each one is tops in its category. I always watch a ton of product reviews, such as yours, before making my purchase decision. And in comparisons where Breville is pitted against the rest, Breville typically comes out on top. The downside is normally cost, never performance. However, as I shared, you get what you pay for. I say buy once and be satisfied-for a long, long time!

[@everythingbutpasta]

Glad we could help!

[@ellieb3930]

I noticed that you have a red mat (maybe silicone?) showing in some of your shots. Just wondering what the purpose is as it seemed to be the shots of casserole type dishes which wouldn't drip. Also, I wanted to ask if you put anything under the baskets when you have oiled vegetables to catch the drips. And what clean up is like please 🙂

[@everythingbutpasta]

I used to use a silicone mat on the bottom for cleanup but I switched to using aluminum foil. I just leave it on the crumb tray all the time. I do sometimes put a try underneath but I feel like it interrupts the airflow so then that’s when the aluminum foil comes in handy. It does get dirty so it needs regular cleaning (once every month or 2) - most parts get clean but the inside of the oven itself is the part where cleanup is less than ideal. I have a full cleaning video on the channel if you want to see how I clean it

[@mariakathrina443]

Does your oven releasing smoke/steam in the oven door? Mine is releasing some steam kind of leak and fogging the LCD screen. I’m not sure if its normal or expected.

[@everythingbutpasta]

No that doesn’t sound normal. I get steam in the oven (when I bake bread I often put a tray with water to purposely create steam) but it never affects the LCD screen

[@mariakathrina443]

That’s what I’m thinking also. I tried researching about the issue and it seems quite a number of folks also experience the same. I’m still waiting for Breville customer support.

It does a good job of reheating and this setting doesn't need to wait to preheat which is better (compared to the other settings where the time starts once it reaches temp). I usually reheat for 6-7 minutes

[@anetany]

Do you spray food with oil before air frying ? How is the cleaning after ?

[@everythingbutpasta]

I don't usually use cooking spray but I coat my veggies in olive oil. I also usually put a tray lined with a Silpat in the bottom rack to catch any dripping oil. It cleans pretty well that way but it does need a deep scrub clean every few weeks.

[@everythingbutpasta]

My pleasure 😊

[@louisep3241]

Nice review. Do you have to sit the Airfryer on anything to protect countertops?

[@everythingbutpasta]

The air fryer itself has 4 “pedestal” feet made of a silicone so it can sit directly on the counter without any damage to the counter

[@everythingbutpasta]

Which essentially makes the air fryer sit about an inch above the counter

[@louisep3241]

@@everythingbutpasta thank you! I’d have to jump out a window if I ruined my new quartz counters. (Not really about the window jumping)!🤣😂

Do you have to unplug it to turn it off? I don't see a power button. Is there a way to disable the preheat option? One thing I wish this item had was a pause button instead of opening the door

[@everythingbutpasta]

Turning the oven on/off is just with the start button. The screen with the options stays on permanently so you’d need to unplug if you want that off but I assume it draws minimal power. I haven’t found a way to disable the preheat button but the warm feature starts counting down without preheating so you could just use that if you don’t want to wait or just put your item in anyway. I haven’t found a need for a pause button but I just add more time if I need

I have my first FAIL using Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro: The ROTATE REMIND did not work as I was expecting the oven to remind me halfway of baking time. It DID NOT REMIND ME HALFWAY, but did remind me 2/3 of baking time. It doesn't make sense to remind to rotate 2/3 of baking time. Most recipes will rotate halfway of baking time. You cannot customize the setting either. Dissappointed that this feature does not work well.

Glass door shattering while cooking, knobs breaking down, fan breaking down, door hinge breaking down because of poor design, the unfixable "E06" error etc. On top of that, tons of people having issues contacting Breville for customer support. Not being able to get ahold of anyone, long wait times, having to wait weeks for them to get your air fryer and make a decision on it, or never even getting contacted back by Breville. Makes me want to avoid at all costs!

There are tons of 1 and 2 star reviews on Amazon for lots of things that are simply a matter of ignorance. Look up any cast iron or High carbon steel pan. The number of negative reviews for rust is astonishing. With over 8000 reviews and 84% being 5 star saying there are tons of 1 and 2 doesn't hold much weight. I am on my second one of these ovens and can testify that the majority of the issues are due to user error. My sons used the first one a lot and did all kinds of damage in a short amount of time because they wouldn't read the instructions or heed mine. I didn't buy a replacement until they were out of the house. Several years later it is still going strong. The door hinge issue is due to weight being put on the door while it is open. On my first one my son sprung the door, but I was able to repair it enough to make it usable. The knobs and fan are electronic items, it happens on occasion. Breville is good about warranty on that stuff. The glass shattering is no different than the glass on a regular oven or the windshield on your car. When glass is hot and you put something cold on it it will at least crack and occasionally explode. Follow manufacturer instructions and common sense.

I can only provide my experience but you can use other reviews to help make an informed decision and decide for yourself

Can't get past her vocal frying.

[@MrSpeedyNYC]

Easy with the vocal fry. That will turn off some viewers.

It's the upspeak for me. Like everything is a question

[@albertjozwiak802]

That's what it all comes to quantity over quality!! Overpriced junk !! Must be made in China.

I’ve had a very positive experience with mine

[@albertjozwiak802]

It's just disappointing to me to buy something I've been needing for a long time and being very happy about my purchase; then find out there could be problems with it.... So I'm at a crossroads with myself ; do I keep it, or return it. Any extra positive input would be greatly appreciated.

[@everythingbutpasta]

I'm not sure what you heard that suggests that there could be problems with it - every product has a risk of something malfunctioning but I've had mine over a year and it still works like the day I got it and showing no signs of slowing down. This is with regular use (pretty much daily)

Is it hard to clean the dripping when air frier chicken wings?

[@everythingbutpasta]

I’ll be making a cleaning video soon to talk about that

[@nancydonoghue7488]

2nd question about cleaning that I've seen. Iam hoping you will focus on cleaning the walls, elements and fan area. Please! Others have shown cleaning of the 4acks and crumb tray. Not helpful because I think we can all manage to do the racks and tray so again please focus on the interior that is where the problem is.vthank you!
