"Easier to clean and cook. ... No need to preheat or stop to turn midway through. I sometimes, but if Inuse the basket, it’s not necessary. ... Everything’s so simple"

Breville, costly but it works so well. Replaced a cuisinart x2. Big but worth it. Can cook two layers at the same time.
r/BuyItForLife • Looking for an air fryer/mini oven combo? ->Breville counter top. Love mine, I haven’t used my oven since I got it. We keep the house very cool and the proof setting for bread is a game changer. Roasted veggies awesome
r/BuyItForLife • Best Air Fryers to Buy? ->Our air fryer is also a toaster oven (Breville). I’ve never looked into the paper liners and have been using parchment paper. Now I’m wondering if there’s a better option. We mostly use the air fry function for green beans, samosas and chicken nuggets. Otherwise it functions as a toaster and extra oven.
r/moderatelygranolamoms • Air fryer… yay or nay? ->I have the Sage Smart Oven Air Fryer (Breville in the US, it's the same brand). Not cheap but absolutely excellent.
r/airfryer • im looking for an air fryer-oven combo for 2/1 people in Europe ->Breville for sure. We’ve had ours for about 6 weeks and love it!
r/airfryer • Recommendation for the Best Air Fryers with a Toaster Oven? ->I have a Breville too, and we use the air fry function all the time! I’m not a typical air fry person. I think they’re ugly and a space Taker. Also from trying 2 out before, they sucked compared to my toaster oven, which does it all. My big oven is convection, but it takes so long to preheat and then it just heats the house So much.
r/homemaking • Recommendations on toaster ovens/air fryers? ->Breville convection (air fry) toaster oven. I’m in my 2nd one, only because our last one got taken out by a power surge. Love, love Breville! Everything’s so simple, and when times up, it powers off. Cooks very quickly too.
r/homemaking • Recommendations on toaster ovens/air fryers? ->Is this the Breville Smart Oven? I have that and I have constant smoking issues while using the air fry function. Even using foil, still smokes like a chimney. Love it otherwise, especially for the reheat setting. Almost makes the microwave obsolete.
r/BuyItForLife • Best Air Fryers to Buy? ->Since you mentioned how hot it gets on the outside, I thought I would share my experience. We've used a breville toaster oven forever, and since it even fits a pie, we almost never use the actual oven anymore. A friend let us borrow a spare instant vortex air fryer and we loved it, so we thought we would try an air fryer toaster oven so we could still just have one appliance. It did not do nearly as good a job at "air frying", but the big issue was that it absolutely radiated heat because there seems to be no insulation in there at all, to where it actually heated up the kitchen more than the full size oven does. We returned it, kept our toaster oven, and just added an air fryer to our repertoire. 🤷♂️
r/airfryer • If you have a basket style air fryer, does it make sense to have an oven style one? ->Is there a reason you’re looking for a basket style? We consolidated a lot of our kitchen appliances and in that process, we got rid of our super old/tiny toaster oven and got a Breville toaster oven that also functions as an air fryer. It is bigger than a basket style, but we saved counter space by not needing to buy a basket style and getting rid of the toaster oven. It’s all metal and it is quite roomy. We use it more often than our regular oven.
r/PlasticFreeLiving • Plastic free basket style air fryer? ->I have this too but isn’t the interior non-stick though. I contacted Breville and said the interior is non-stick.
r/airfryer • Where the hell can one acquire a good stainless steel interior air fryer??? ->Couldn’t agree more! I have a breville toaster oven with an air fryer and it is my most used kitchen appliance. We mostly use the air fryer, toaster, and bake settings, but there is an occasional time I need to broil and I have used the pizza settings and they are also great! Its been about 2.5 years that I’ve had it and don’t know how I lived without this before!
r/adhdwomen • If I buy an air fryer, will I regret it? ->if you can spring for it, get the breville toaster oven with the air fryer feature. I do 90% of my cooking in that because it heats up so quickly and is perfect for those small meals
r/toddlers • Air fryers ->I second the Breville counter top air fryer also. Large knob’s and easy to use
r/airfryer • Air fryer with actual buttons or knobs? ->I went from a corsori air fryer to the breville oven style and the corsori was definitely faster if that matters to you. Otherwise it doesnt really matter and I like the extra features (toaster) of the breville. Both are fairly easy to clean.
r/airfryer • Pros cons about the oven style airfryer? ->2nd this suggestion. Loved mine so much I bought one for my parents because it's so convenient
r/BuyItForLife • Best Air Fryers to Buy? ->I’m a big fan of the Breville convection oven. I use it multiple times a day for everything. Don’t need a separate toaster or air fryer with that thing.
r/BuyItForLife • Best Air Fryers to Buy? ->My parents had the cuisinart & hated it & had so many issues. Got the breville all good.
r/BuyItForLife • Best Air Fryers to Buy? ->Best purchase in my kitchen by far.
