Breville BOV900BSS

- Viewing window
- Named best toaster-oven style by two reviewers
Cons
- Premium price

A niche pick for buyers consolidating appliances. Everyone else gets better air frying for far less from a basket model.

Pros
- Strong air frying and fast cooking in RTINGS scores
- Compact, light body
- Backed by three independent testers
- Dishwasher-safe basket and crisper plate per Ninja
- Mainstream price that is often discounted
Cons
- Only four modes and no preheat
- 400°F maximum temperature
- No shake reminder or auto-pause
- Large-batch performance and capacity score lower than the rest of its results
The best choice for most one- to four-person households. It crisps well, cooks quickly and does not take over the counter, though larger families will want more room.
