Cuisinart - TOA-60

I do have 3 teenagers. It’s my wife and three teenage kids, so we need to make pretty big meals these days. I know this post is 7 months old, but I hope you went with a bigger air fryer. Our first air fryer was a 10 quart model. We thought about getting a second one, but my brother in law is an electrician, and he said they draw too much power to be on the same outlet, so we just ended up getting a much larger model.  We landed on a Cuisineart model that’s 18 quarts by narrowing down all the size options using this handy [product database](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Y4PR6GCz-Lk5mWX1LUzo-3kChRBv302vSv5HZFB5K1c/edit?gid=1554522955#gid=1554522955) that someone on Reddit put together. The nice thing is that it can toast six bagel halves simultaneously, so I was able to get rid of my toaster altogether too.

I am a cook. A lot of people in the Blanc community know who I am. I do not have Tori air fryer, what I have, is the Cuisinart toaster oven air fryer, with the control knobs. There are two versions, the large amount which I have, and the smaller model with control that I got for each of my children when they bought their perspective homes. The Cuisinart to have a control knob that you can control it yourself, you don’t need to have an app on your phone. Do a lot of investigating first before you purchase an air fryer. my recommendation would be the Cuisinart toaster oven air fryer with the control knobs. But that’s just my recommend. I like to be in control of all my kitchen appliances, not having to use an app. Since I live by myself, it’s very critical that I am in control of my cooking appliances.

I purchased a multi purpose oven - a big bitter than what folks in the US call a toaster oven. It air fries, bakes, grills, toasts… mine is a Cuisinart model and I absolutely love it. Use it every day. I particularly love the fact that I’m not putting my food in contact with plastic at high temps.

This is what I have too! It's fantastic! It's about the only way I make tofu now because it's so fast. Yes, the basket is stainless steel. It can even proof bread dough. It's used multiple times a day!

I have a stainless steel air fryer / toaster oven. It’s a Cuisinart but I don’t remember the model number.

It’s not labeled as non-stick and there is no obvious coating on any of the components. It looks and feels exactly like my stainless steel cookware.

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.

Negative. Going to a Cuisinart toaster oven/air fryer Not as good at air frying but still really good from what I've read That's good enough for me to have non stick

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 the same brand and have shared this experience. Well made and it is actually a pretty good toaster too.

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.

Cuisanart toaster oven/ air fryer. Use it daily for over 4 years.

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.

We got the Cuisinart air fryer toaster oven on sale and it’s been really good

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. Over time the heat will degrade the operation of things until it becomes inoperable.

yeah mine started to fail after 2-3 years of use.
