"I had mine staked down in packed sand during a rainstorm that dropped 1.5”-2” per hour for 3 hours according to a ranger station nearby and it took it like a champ."
"after heavy and extreme and I mean extreme use in a very dirty environment, after a year the range suddenly cut down... I felt like I'd gotten my measly 20ish buck worth from them and didn't fault jlab due to the extreme circumstances I used them in daily. ... I work in a hot asa filthy steel mill and the fact they lasted a year was impressive to me."
"My old Breville lasted 10-11 years ... I got the new one 3 years ago with the air fryer option … if it breaks tomorrow I would figure out how to get it again - I seriously love it."

"I have not used my “basket” style air fryer or my full sized oven since we bought this. Well, aside from Thanksgiving to cook the turkey."
"Even without adding oil, food is crispier than in an oven. ... Like - frozen oven chips are always soggy. In the air fryer - crispy French fries."
"Now all I use is my air fryer, microwave for frozen veggies and rice cooker. ... I like everything to be as simple as possible, so set it and forget it. Haven't used my stove top or oven since I got the ninja in 2022."

"it cooks a whole roaster chicken extremely nicely ... you can fit a whole roaster chicken extremely- it keeps it extremely juicy"

"It’s great for baking so far. It’s very precise and big enough to fit my large bread baker/dutch oven."
"it has a ton of space which is super useful for cooking bigger things like chicken."
"We have the pro and it fits our 6.75 round wide with lid."

"I cooked a whole, bone in turkey breast, around 5.5lbs. Came out amazing, and in no time"
"Takes less than 30 seconds to preheat."
"poke some holes in a potato and toss it in the microwave for 7 minutes then roll in a little oil and salt then 8 minutes in the air fryer (flip halfway) and it’s better than a restaurant baked potato."

"I have constant smoking issues while using the air fry function. ... Even using foil, still smokes like a chimney."
"Ours smoked terribly since day one. ... Sets of the smoke alarm."
"I HAAATE how short it is, you have like a 3in. height limit for anything you want to cook lol ... I mean really if whatever I'm cooking is even 2 inches tall, I feel like it'll be too close to the coils at the top and it'll burn 😅 ... I used to eat a lot of frozen stuffed chicken breasts and I think those would be too tall and get burned, especially being in there for like 30+ minutes that close to the burners. or this one time when I wanted to air fry some fat ass enchiladas I had cooked the day before, those things were chuuunky! Or toasting up some french bread for sandwiches!"

"Mine is garbage for toasting ... Eight minutes and turn it to the darkest setting! 🤣"
"Does a poor job of air frying. ... Does not get things crispy."
"However it is not very good at making toast, so don’t replace your toaster."

"My first one turn up. I plugged in the subwoofer to mains for the first time, I heard a bang and it was dead. I was pissed."
"I had the stick and the ball versions and both barely lasted a year"
"all of them developed a double click problem (i play alot of games that require alot of clicking)"

"this thing makes a f***ing mess. ... It's hard to clean, the crumb/ drip tray is a really bad design (the seams can leak food oil directly beneath the machine). ... I can appreciate the idea of having an outside accessible crumb pan, but in practice it is just not worth it."
"stuff dripped from it so clean up was always terrible ... Just a real pain to deal with"
"If you don’t put something underneath a drippy food it’s a really bad scene."
abarthsimpson 1.0This is the one I have too.
_Bon_Vivant_ 1.0I just bought a [Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N5UPTZS) a month ago. Amazing product! It does everything right. So happy with the purchase. It's expensive, but definitely a worthy investment.
BrenInVA 1.0I have the Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro BOV900BSS, Brushed Stainless Steel - a combo convection oven and air fryer. I have had mine for years. When it is on sale (a few times a year), it is about $329. I purchased one for my mother and mother-in-law. They both love it and use it instead of their regular ovens. Both Wirecutter and America’s Test Kitchen give it high ratings.
I have been using the Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro and Convection Oven (BOV900BSS) for years. It does a great job for many things, including air frying (super convection). It was just on sale for $339 at Amazon Prime Day. It may be less on Black Friday. I rarely use my full size oven any longer. I purchased one for my mother and mother-in-law also, and they love it. Friends have even bought it too. No need to have a single-purpose air fryer when this does a better job and cooks a larger amount (air fryer mesh basket rack included) and has many uses.
feelinuneasy1234 1.0Your best bet is [this breville](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N5UPTZS/). It's been wirecutter's top pick for a long time.
Femmecookery 1.0We have a really small kitchen with very valuable counter space. It also has no windows or hood so it’s gets hot as Hades in the summer. This countertop oven/ air fryer saves are ass in the hot months; https://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/breville-smart-oven-air/.
FirstNameIsDistance 1.0You're going to want something like the Breville BOV900BSS Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro and Convection Oven

Pizza, jerky, dehydrating, toast, baking, broiling, air frying. I have thoughts of getting a second and ditching the regular oven/stove.
mrb4 1.0I have had two brevilles, both have been great. I have the smart over air fryer pro now.
neksys 1.0We have the top of the line Breville too. It doesn’t really matter, the toast is always still a bit uneven. I could care less through — it has virtually replaced our big oven. We use it daily, I’ve cooked whole chickens in there
Pastorfuzz69 1.0I have the Breville 9000 Pro. I’ve had it quite a while. I bought and extra basket for it to make 2 levels of wings mostly. I clean it after every use with Easy Off cleaner and degreaser and some paper towels. Doesn’t take long at all . Still looks like new. It will fit a 12 inch pizza. I line the bottom with foil or parchment paper.
I keep the baking pan just above them so I’ve never had to clean them
