TOA-70 AirFryer Oven Grill

I've used that Cuisinart for 3 years. Still going strong. There was a learning curve with temps but I really recommend it.

Yes, on some cook methods it gets too hot. Using it to reheat food or make wings, is fast and awesome. Other items require frequent checking on temp.

Yes, cleaning is difficult. I have had the issue with the walls, but the door and bottom are tricky. The dust buster is handy!

I have owned this Cuisinart for a year now and love it. There are only two downsides that I’ve found: 1. The glass on the door permanently stains. It has streaks between the glass layers I cannot get out. 2. The back has an exhaust that heats the plug. When in use it needs to be moved forward and away from the outlet as to not heat the cord. Over all would buy again. It’s sleek, cooks well, and feels like quality.

I have both. Started with the Cuisinart about 8 years ago; about 4 years ago it got moved to the outside kitchen and the Breville has taken over inside. The Cuisinart is more like a toaster oven with big aspirations. If I want to bake a few cookies or roast a chicken the wall oven does a much better job. The Breville is significantly better; I use it daily and it cooks more evenly, with fewer hot spots. I use it for proofing dough, baking bread, roasting chickens, cooking sheet pan meals, etc. etc. It is every bit as good as my wall oven for all those things, just a little smaller. Both are a PITA to clean. Neither has given me any problems with reliability. Edited for clarity.

I got rid of my Cosori, the basket broke. (I got a new basket because I hate e-waste but its now a backup/office unit.) Replaced it with a Cuisinart TOA-70NAS. It's a toastover/airfryer combo thing. Knob controls instead of digital display. Stainless steel basket/rack. Ceramic coated griddle plate. Highly recommend it. Not as bells-n-whistly as something like a Typhur that I was contemplating but space/shape/cost sold me.

My toaster oven crapped out. I replaced it with a combo toaster oven air fryer that has just a slightly larger footprint. It does toast, bake, convection bake, and air fry. Fits a whole Freschetta frozen pizza. Can roast enough broccoli for 4 people. Great at getting a crust on salmon without overcooking. In the summer it really helps that I don’t have to turn the large oven on for a lot of things. It has a light and you can watch that your food doesn’t burn without opening. You can buy extra bake sheets and wire trays. My family of 4 uses it all the time. Like it so much we bought a spare for when this one dies. Cuisinart TOA-70

It’s between the Breville Pro and the Cuisinart TOA-70NAS. We personally own the Cuisinart and it’s been a solid workhorse.

I’ve tried to avoid air fryers or toaster ovens that have the control panel right above the cooking area. They always seem to fail faster. I had that exact cuisinart and it never worked completely properly. We have the ninja one from Costco and it’s been a great at about half the price of the breville one.

It's impossible to clean, though. I have the almost exact model shown here and I can tell you: 1. The glass door is non-removable and grease, crumbs, oil, etc collect in between the glass and the metal frame. There's no way to get rid of it. 2. The "non-stick" accessories are in fact extremely sticky and they will stain the moment you first use the oven. There's no cleaning them other than using a drill wire brush attachment. 3. The inner walls get caked with burnt grease which is, again, impossible to remove. I mean, it's a good oven, but don't think for a moment this Cuisinart is anything close to "easy to clean". I've yet to find a toaster oven that is.

I was also considering these two when shopping for a new countertop oven and went with the Cuisineart because I prefer mechanical knobs to digital inputs which could be harder to repair in the long run. I wipe mine down with soapy water after each use to prevent build up of grease.  So far so good but check with me in ~10 years and I'll let you know if it's "BIFL" worthy ;)

My girlfriend and I have a Cuisinart toaster oven / air fryer / broiler / grill combo that is amazing. we make everything in it. We also lack counter space and got this instead of a microwave and I highly recommend it

It's the "Cuisinart Air Fryer Oven with Grill" - I actually just found it on sale for less than what we paid over a year ago, ha [https://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/cuisinart-airfryer-oven-with-grill/](https://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/cuisinart-airfryer-oven-with-grill/)
