"has withstood the last week of winds over 70 freezing kph."
"The roborock I have kicked and smashed with my foot so many times out of anger when it doesn't collaborate, and still he rocks 4-5 yrs later and no broken parts"
"I've used it daily for at least 10 years now, probably closer to 15 and apart from the fact you need to clean it periodically, it's still works like brand new."

"You can cook potatoes or vegetables on bottom while you’re air frying on the top."
"And it does so many other things. ... I used normal air fryer before and they are extremely limited relative to the speedi. ... You can steam in the speedi. ... You could use it as a rice cooker. ... It has like 10 functions and they all work very well."
"it has a rotisserie mode, in case you want your fries to be tumbled while cooked and a "spit" that secures your whole chicken."

"it is actually a pretty good toaster too"
"It air fries, bakes, grills, toasts…"

"It has control knobs on it, easy to use, I have no site whatsoever. ... I love the model that I have with the control lamps ... this is why I chose the Cuisinart, cause somebody can’t always come running over if I need them. ... I live by myself I don’t always have sided help, this is why I chose the Cuisinart"
"much prefer its analog controls to digital ones."

"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_99KK_tbr30_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."
"Build feels pretty cheap especially the headset controls and microphone ... It’s one of the cheapest feeling headsets I’ve ever had. ... Overall build quality is poor."
"Build quality on hiboy and gotrax is not sufficient for a daily driver. ... Hiboy and Gotrax make ok entry level scooters, but they are toys. They generally don't last. They're fine for light-duty recreational use. If this is something that's going to get used everyday rain or shine they're not a good choice."

"it pales in comparison to our Cosori basket-style air fryer. Truly, there's a dramatic difference in the crisping and overall texture of foods prepped in the Cosori vs. Cuisinart."
"chicken is gross on that one I learned."
"I had this toaster oven and it burned everything! ... I put an oven thermometer in it, and it was never at the temperature I set it to. ... It would often get up to 500 degrees when I set it at 350."

"My only gripe with it is that the knob on my model (it only has one) is wonky, and sometimes you turn it up and the numbers go down, or vice versa. It needs to be turned with just the right amount of pressure to get the knob to work right."
"the dials never worked correctly."

"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"
"It's the heat exchanger down inside the machine that the outside air is drawn through in order to cool the air inside. There is no filter for the incoming air. It just goes down the tube and right through the exchanger. The only way to properly clean it is to disassemble the entire machine. ... The blower fan is impossible to clean unless you open the entire machine up and do some major surgery. ... Mine had mold and other fun looking bits on it from the humid air out in Arkansas. ... I had to take the entire shell off, remove a good amount of the ducting, and disassemble the fans motor attachment to be able to clean it. ... It would be easier to clean the blower if the screen was removable that protects it but you cant remove the screen without once again disassembling the entire machine. ... the lack of accessibility to clean parts that should be user cleanable makes me angry."

gigashadowwolf 1.0I don't know if it's BIFL, but the Cuisinart TOA-60 is one of the best purchases I've ever made. It or the virtually identical models regularly go on sale for $99.00. It's all simple mechanical parts so there is basically nothing to fail. It's a great toaster oven AND air fryer. I've used it daily for at least 10 years now, probably closer to 15 and apart from the fact you need to clean it periodically, it's still works like brand new. CTOA 122 is the same exact model except it's sold exclusively at Target. TOA-70 is almost identical, it just comes with a grill plate. I won't lie to you and tell you there are not better air fryers or even combination air fryer toaster ovens out there, but this little guy is reliable, and punches way above it's weight class. My only complaint with it is that there is an independent toaster dial for some reason that only works if all the oven related dials are turned off. It's easy to try to turn this on and not realize nothing is actually cooking because the other settings are still set up for oven or air fry modes.
pirfle 1.0I have a convection oven the size of a toaster oven and it has an air fryer setting. It's frocking amazing! I used it every single day. This is almost identical to mine. https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/cuisinart-convection-air-fryer-toaster-oven-w-7-functions-stainless-steel-0439587p.html
KissMyGrits60 0.5I know a lot of people who are blind, who have the story air fryer is Wi-Fi capable, and they use it. I don’t have one of those. I am a cook. I don’t believe in running and kitchen appliances, that could cause fires with an app. I have the large model of the Cuisinart toaster oven air fryer. It has control knobs on it, easy to use, I have no site whatsoever. I love the model that I have with the control lamps, they also make one that’s a smaller model with control knobs, and now they even have one and this is the one I wanna get after mine breaks down, they have one that is called the Cuisinart toaster air fryer grill, it has a grill portrait in the air fryer. That’s the one I want, but not until after this one breaks down. And the reason I say that I don’t believe you should control kitchen appliances, especially ones that are meant for cooking, with an app, what happens if you are complete Internet goes down you’re going to have to try and manually use the to air fryer, but if you can’t see, how are you going to use that, especially if you live independently. I live by myself I don’t always have sided help, this is why I chose the Cuisinart, cause somebody can’t always come running over if I need them. now this is just all my opinion, I’m sure they’re gonna be people who don’t agree with it, but that’s all right. I wish you the best of luck. I love my air fryer.
Shadyrgc 0.1Cuisinart makes a nice little combo Air Fryer/Toaster/Air Bake oven. Have one, love it. But the microwave is a necessity for reheating leftovers!
veritasjusticia 0.1Cuisinart makes a stainless steel air fryer with convection and toaster oven combo. I won’t use anything else! It’s great.
SlowDescent_ 0.1I 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.
Veggie108 0.1This 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!
btmalon 0.1Same 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.
djcp 0.1We have the same brand and have shared this experience. Well made and it is actually a pretty good toaster too.
Legitimate-Mess-1973 0.1I have a version of this, too. We moved in October of last year & have never used our oven - we use the air fryer for everything - it’s just my husband and I so we find it much easier & cheaper than using the oven. And ditto for the cleaning. 🤪
