I can guess this one is the Our Place air fryer based on the verbiage 😂 Might be wrong, but I have researched too many air fryers. The one we have is Cuisinart and when I emailed them to ask about PFAs, they said it didn’t have PFAs and we’ve used it for 2 years, only to find out recently that it DOES. So frustrating. Air fryers are amazing, I’m planning to save for the Green Pan one soon. One thing to consider when it says PTFE… that’s only one PFAs. There are over 15,000. I would ask the company if it’s PFAs free. I recently saw a ceramic pan that was advertised as PFOA and PFOS free but it was actually made with PTFE. So they swap one PFAs for another…

It’s the toaster oven air fryer. I emailed them when I bought it and they said it didn’t have PFAs, but recently discovered it does. I have Model CTOA-122 and it lists PTFE among others :( https://www.cuisinart.com/chemical-disclosure?srsltid=AfmBOoqIFuZcYuoBUCOfwkkQz0nK2Q23j1NXwaWCJFoF1kN_W0ewthU3

I really wish some company would make a simple air fryer with all stainless steel or enamel coated like a real oven. Also reducing the number of settings would be nice to simplify things. I want it to last 10 years+ not 1-3 years like they currently do. Make it fit a standard 9x13” pan for the oven styles. Somehow Breville breaks, Cuisinart, Oster, Hamilton beach, etc. I’ll spend $400 if it’s like Vitamix and last a while, but all of the brands die so easily so it’s hard to judge. My cuisinart digital air fryer died twice because the knob kept going crazy after 9 months. So now I’m on the new version and it hasn’t happened for me yet after 5-6 months, but I bought a new Instant Pot basket style but still Teflon (rated the best from Americas Test Kitchen).

What’s bad is that the Cuisinart digital air fryer will break after 9 months with the dial so long term durability isn’t a factor in this review. I warrantied mine 2 times already and they said that was the last time.

Same for us. Very happy with it, but I will say it doesn’t get battered food quite as crispy as some air friers. 2-3x better than a normal oven but a step behind what you see in air fryer videos.

I had the Gourmia some years ago and all the basket finished peeled. Then went for a Cuisinart air fryer toaster oven (died quickly) and exchanged it for a Kitchen Aid Air Fryer (great appliance, fair air fryer, very difficult to clean). After days of deep research, I bought the Ninja Flexdrawer 11qt renewed from Amazon and it’s amazing! Amazon recommended a set of silicone inserts which makes cleaning a breeze.

We have a cuisinart air fryer toaster oven and it’s great. Gets the most use out of all the small appliances. Can make whole dinners in it for 2 adults. Anything that is not a toaster oven size/shape is going to be way less useful

We’ve had a cuisinart air fryer/toaster oven combo for a couple years and it’s been great. We’re a large family and it gets used several times a day. It’s a workhorse type appliance and I like that the rack that the food actually touches is stainless steel. If it ever breaks I’ll get the same one to replace it. I’m not sure it’s true bifl just because of the way small appliances are made now but it should hold up to a decade or two of heavy use pretty easily

Yeah, I second this reco. I love my Cuisinart air fryer toaster oven, its about 3 years old, & going strong, it gets used several times a week, I recommend wrapping the drip tray with foil for easy cleanup.

I also have a Cuisinart air fryer/toaster oven and use it daily. Agreed that wrapping the tray in foil is a necessity. It takes longer than a regular toaster for bread, but using it to reheat pastries or pizza makes it a winner.

I have a Cuisinart toaster oven/air fryer. I love it but didn't want a dedicated air fryer. I saw one similar to the one (mine is a few years old) I have around Christmas, not sure if it always there.

Second this. Our previous one lasted about 5 or 6 years before it just died. Replaced with the same about a year ago but the construction is a little cheaper. On the newer models they used thinner stainless steel and you can hear the metal flex when it heats up or cools down. The older model didnt. Still a great device and much prefer its analog controls to digital ones.

Our store only carries one or two of the toaster-oven-style air fryers. We picked up the Cuisinart model as we had a Cuisinart toaster oven before and it works fine.

Yes, we've found that out too. I suspect that they set up the settings for a regular toaster oven and didn't factor in the faster cooking because of the blower motor. This is something that you learn with trial and error.

I second the cuisinart. It has functions for cookies, pizza, baking (separate from the cookie function). Like 12 settings, including air fry. A regular oven grate, a basket, a pizza pan, and a little baking dish. Sometimes, you can even make two things at once by using the grate in the lowest setting and using the basket above it.

I too have the Cuisinart and use it often. But note: it cooks a lot hotter than the setting indicates. I know 2 other people with the same oven and they've said the same thing. I turn it down about 50° when I'm air baking/frying.

I have one of those cuisinart multi function toaster oven/air fryers. I am on my 2nd one as the 1st one failed and was warrantied by Cuisinart. Now this one is starting to fail again in the same manner (the rotary control knob jumps around randomly and doesn't increment up or down cleanly) After watching a video by [Technology Connections](https://youtu.be/6h9JhW-m35o?si=I_99KK9tbrb30_yc) the control board being above the oven is a big achilles heel of these machines.
