Breville - Smart Oven® Air Fryer BOV860

Adquiri o Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer, e ele não apenas funciona perfeitamente, mas também dá à minha bancada um visual sofisticado e contemporâneo, com seu acabamento em inox. Ainda não experimentei todas as opções, mas já ouvi ótimos comentários sobre os modelos da Ninja e da Cosori também.

My partner absolutely loves the Breville Smart Oven. She uses it a few times a week for fish, and it always turns out perfect. Plus, it roasts veggies in half the time of our old oven!

Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer. It does everything- air fry, toast, bake, reheat, keep warm, etc. I use mine in some capacity every single day. Size is pretty good too, can’t remember the last time I had to turn on my large oven. Also, it’s easier to get things in and out of than the air fryers with the “buckets.”

I absolutely love mine! Mine is garbage for toasting, but amazing for anything else from air frying to plain baking. It's very handy to basically have a second small oven.

Eight minutes and turn it to the darkest setting! 🤣

I have the Breville smart oven and I have found really good use of the dehydrate feature.  

I absolutely love my Breville Smart Oven.

I’ve been gradually switching most of my appliances to Breville because I really like the brand's quality and having matching pieces at home. The Smart Oven Air Fryer, which is 30% larger than the Smart Oven Pro, would be my pick. I found a great resource on another subreddit where you can [compare the specs of different air fryers](https://www.reddit.com/user/No-Competition-5766/comments/1i5jdq2/air_fryer_models_comparison_spreadsheet/). Worth checking it out when comparing options. 

I have a slow cooker and end up using my stove for soups and stews. If I’m doing a whole roast I might get the slow cooker out. I make a lot of soup. I put one or two quarts in the fridge for the week and one or two quarts in the freezer when I make it. I have a toaster oven that air fries. I use that thing most nights one way or another. It’s larger so I even bake my bread in it. It’s the Breiville Smart Oven. So if the question still stands air fryer vs slow cooker I would say air fryer. However if you cook beans from dry a lot, like you are vegetarian or make burritos or burrito bowls a lot the slow cooker might be good. You can freeze the beans in pints or quarts too. Honestly I think a good freezer and learning how to use it is the best kitchen appliance.

Omg that’s amazing!! I’ve had my breville oven for probably 10+ years. Love it

Same here! I actually love this oven, we have the non-pro version as we wanted something smaller. It takes longer to airfry compared to a traditional airfryer, but I do find the end result comparable. We use it for many other uses, like reheating baby's food, baking, toasting, and more. Couldn't recommend more!

I bought the Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer a few months ago, and have been happy with it! It’s our first air fryer, so nothing to compare it to, but I like that it’s bigger than our old toaster oven and can toast more slices, and the air fryer function has been easy to use. I bought it at Target - just looked and it’s on sale! https://www.target.com/p/breville-smart-oven-air-fryer/-/A-90673371

Love my Breville! It holds a ton of food too. Cooks quicker than the ugly space ship style air fryers I tried. 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. I love how it does everything g in one appliance .

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.

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.

Definitely the Breville Smart Oven, it has a ton of space which is super useful for cooking bigger things like chicken.

We use the Breville Smart Oven one almost every single day, reheating so many things is a plus, even frozen burritos come out of it way better!

Same XL without rotisserie but holds full size pizza plus wings for a whole family! Use daily for almost last 3 years.

I had that too but now use an XL Breville with clear glass front door it’s way better!

Breville is my vote as well. It frys items very crispy and doubles as a little oven. In fact, if it fits in that thing, I'm using it. Our GE stovetop oven is beyond useless.

I purchased the Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer recently and have been happy with its performance.

I went with the Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer, and it not only performs well but also adds a sleek, modern look to my countertop with its stainless steel finish. While I haven't personally tried every brand, I've heard solid things about Ninja and Cosori models too.

The Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer is a great choice. If you want other options, Ninja and Cosori are solid picks, with Philips being top-tier for crispiness. Instant Vortex Plus is user-friendly.

Breville has been pretty good because it is entirely metal. We were concerned with the plastic pieces from the other brands, and it has been working well.

I went with the Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer after a few models.

Congrats on considering an upgrade! The Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer is a fantastic choice - the stainless steel finish does give it a sleek, high-end look. How's the performance so far?

No, you won't. They're great. My family uses ours multiple times a day. We have a Breville that's both a toaster and air fryer and it's basically the only thing we use in our kitchen (aside from the stove).

I bought the Breville Smart Oven ($350 right now on Amazon) and use it more than once per day. I moved into my current apartment 9 months ago and have not used the regular oven one time. If cooking for 2 it is more than roomy enough. It does look a little less than gleaming because of so much use, but it is amazing! Check it out to see all of the features and you will not be sorry for spending extra cash.

+1. It is amazing. You can fit a 9 x 13 pan in it.

Agree. We bought a used Breville off Craigslist and used it for years without any problems. We were randomly bought a Cuisinart for Christmas ~ 4 years ago, so we gave our Breville to our parents and used the Cuisinart instead. The Cuisinart function dials are now starting to break, while the Breville is still going strong.

I hear ya. I went from a basket air fryer whose convenience in terms of cooking quickly was lost when having to do batch after batch in the basket. We quickly moved on from that one for a Breville Smart Oven and love it. After buying a couple more fry baskets, it's really easy to cook a whole bunch of food in one go. We do cycle the baskets periodically during cooking so that they all spend roughly the same time at the top and closest to the heating element, which is a minor inconvenience . The additional toaster oven features are also pretty handy. We really like the Breville oven.

Any of the toaster oven style ones should do it. And you can make toast and bake other stuff in them. The Breville Smart Oven (or pro which is just bigger) is great.

We needed a new toaster oven, so we decided to try a combo, the Breville Smart Oven. It’s been a really good product for many foods. However, its burner element is in the middle of it, so any air frying with dripping grease produces a mess. So we bought a traditional air fryer too. We actually use both, depending on the food. We are happy having both, because we needed a toaster oven anyway. The only downside is that we spent some extra money to have a very nice toaster oven with air fry capability.

If you’re dropping up to $300 on an air fryer, you’re in prime territory for getting something that’ll genuinely make your life easier (and make you wonder why you didn’t upgrade sooner). The Breville smart oven air fryer is definitely a high end choice. It’s basically an air fryer + toaster oven hybrid, so if you want something that looks sleek and does more than just air frying then go for this! But if you want a straight up air frying powerhouse, the Ninja foodi dualzone is AMAZING. Two independent baskets mean you can cook different foods at different temps at the same time (no more waiting for round two of fries!). The Cosori dual blaze is is also really nice. It has heating elements on both the top and bottom so you don’t even need to flip your food mid cook. I actually came across [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/airfryerhacks/comments/1izsvbo/confession_my_air_fryer_might_be_my_soulmate/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) that breaks down different models and why an air fryer is pretty much a kitchen essential. Might help you narrow things down!

We have a Breville Air Fryer/Toaster Oven combo. Purchased at Wal-Mart. I Love it - It gets used everyday!

Save up and get a Breville Smart Oven, if you can.

Agreed. I got my Breville when I was in an apartment and their oven sucked. It works GREAT as a small oven replacement. I really wanted the air fryer part to work well, and figured it would when I heard the fan fire up... but it just doesn't get the air flow required to crisp things up like an actual air fryer. It's a function I stopped using and just ended up getting the real thing. Sucks to lose so much counter top space to both, but they both server their intended functions real well. I still do not regret getting the Breville though even now that I have a decent oven. It is great being able to bake something or cook a pizza in the summer without turning the kitchen into a gas grill. Something that is impossible with the gas oven in my kitchen.

I don’t think my Breville Air Fryer Oven crisps quite as well as the dedicated air fryer types but I will never go back to those. The oven is so much more versatile and has almost completely replaced my standard oven.

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

Ditto. Heats fast, doesn’t heat up the kitchen, can do lots of stuff. Use it every day.

I second the Breville counter top air fryer also. Large knob’s and easy to use

I have one of these and love it

Breville for sure. We’ve had ours for about 6 weeks and love it!

Breville makes my favorite thermomix companion. Would totally get an air fry model buying today: https://www.breville.com/en-us/shop/ovens

I bake veg in my breville oven all the time. Buying today I would definitely get an air fry model: https://www.breville.com/en-us/shop/ovens

I have the Sage Smart Oven Air Fryer (Breville in the US, it's the same brand). Not cheap but absolutely excellent.

2nd this suggestion. Loved mine so much I bought one for my parents because it's so convenient 

I have this too but isn’t the interior non-stick though. I contacted Breville and said the interior is non-stick.

I’m pretty sure my Breville toaster oven with air fryer is all stainless

Yup! They are! Stainless steel is also easier to keep clean than aluminum.

Don't worry, it is. Plenty of people use these, like the breville, Cuisinart, Ninja etc. Imo this style works better for many people and is much closer to a real oven and also does air frying.

There's a certain amount of overlap between a countertop convection oven (which is what they really are) and basket style air fryers. The toaster oven style is fine for stuff like roasting vegetables but you're never going to get the true "air fry" with one of those. We have one of those Breville convection deals but eventually broke down and got a basket style air fryer too and do not for a moment regret it.

Wirecutter recommends the Breville and when my Cuisinart died last month, that's what I replaced it with. It's a huge upgrade from my previous air fryer/toaster oven. \*\*I'm talking about toaster oven air fryer combos. If you're interested in just an air fryer, I don't have one to recommend.

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

I have both a small standalone air fryer and a Breville convection oven/air fryer combo. I think the standalone one makes things a lil more crispy so my husband and I use it the most for heating/reheating small things like Costco chicken nuggets, French fries, quesadillas, etc. Larger foods like reheating pizza go into the Breville. We use the Breville as a normal toaster oven and then occasionally its air fryer function. Im not really a leftovers person unless I can get it to taste like it did in the restaurant. Using the air fryer helps a lot with that!

Best purchase in my kitchen by far.

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.

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.

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.

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.

My parents had the cuisinart & hated it & had so many issues. Got the breville all good.

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.

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!

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. 🤷‍♂️
