32 QT Digital Toaster Oven Air Fryer Combo, AUMATE by Kitchen in the box Convection Oven Countertop, 19-in-1 Smart Airfryer, Pizza Oven, Toast Bake and Broil, Rotisserie, 7…

This is a top notch toaster oven. Does more than just toast and it’s such a nice size you could probably fit a turkey or something in there. Easy to use. I love when items have multi uses. I think the price could come down a bit though. This is not new technology and these shouldn’t cost this much at this point.

I got this to replace another “air fryer” toaster oven that cooked slower than a full sized non-convection oven. It had a fan with the power of an asthmatic chipmunk, blowing through a straw. I wanted to test some French fries in this, but first I had to run it at 450° for 18 minutes. It says to do that in the instruction manual. It will make your kitchen stink as it burns off whatever is in there. I turned on my vent. Anyway, my test was simple. I wanted to see if this could cook French fries using the air fryer instructions on the back of the bag. My rather expensive Ninja air fryer absolutely can. That thing this replaced took 50 minutes at 450° to cook French fries because it was garbage. I don’t like charcoal for French fries if you are wondering. I like them crispy on the outside and soft on the inside like any sane person. Anyway, the air fryer instructions on these fries say 400° for 12-16 minutes. They were perfect in 14 minutes. 12 minutes might have been good enough, but they were still just a little soft on the outside for my taste. In other words, this works!

Pros:

Crumb tray! There’s a tray that covers the bottom. You can take it out and clean it. That is so much better than trying to clean the bottom of a toaster oven.

BIG! I fit a frozen pizza in there. It was an actual, full sized frozen pizza, not some little French bread pizza or whatever. I know there’s a pizza button, but I decided to just use the oven instructions and the bake setting. It came out wonderfully. The crust was crispy without being burnt and the toppings were perfect.

Tons of settings. It can even be a dehydrator. Look at the listing.

Preheats rather quickly. This definitely doesn’t take anywhere near as long as a full sized oven. It seems like it’s even faster than my last toaster oven. Though, that thing was a bit of a joke and I kind of want to take it out back and shoot it.

Loud beep. I could hear it about 40 feet away from my kitchen, clear as day.

Bright light. I can easily see in there with the light on.

It shows you where to put the tray. There are lines on the outside that will show you how high or low the tray should be, depending on the setting.

Adjustable in 5° increments. This is an area where my Ninja drives me crazy. That one has random temperatures that you can use. This one just goes up and down by 5°. Perfect. If you’ve ever cooked something where you know that 375° will burn the outside before it cooks through, while 350° will ruin it, you know why 5° increments are great.

Neutral observations:

BIG. Yes, this was a pro. However, if you have limited counter space in any of the three dimensions (don’t forget height!) get out your measuring tape and check.

It’s a bit complicated. This isn’t really something that you can just immediately start using without at least doing some thinking. For example, preheat is an icon, instead of just using the word “preheat” or something that would be more obvious. Once you use it a couple times, you’ll get the hang of it. It’s not that terrible. It’s the kind of complicated that you will figure out quickly, not the kind of complicated where you’ll be reaching for the manual every time you use it forever.

Cons:

The buttons are not all buttons. The buttons look exactly like the lights that do nothing. The buttons are just touch sensitive, and you’ll be trying to press things like the cooking settings, which aren’t buttons. If you want to get to something like bake, you have to scroll through everything.

Uh…that’s about it for the cons thus far. I have not tried the rotisserie or the spinning basket thing just yet. I just got it two days ago, so I have no idea about its longevity. I haven’t even toasted toast. I will update this as I go. As of right now (8/10/23) I’m rather happy with it. I really want to try that dual cooking thing, since roast chickens are best when you sear the skin first. I usually have to do that manually in the oven, but this should be able to do it with me not even in the room. Well, I might stay in the room. I don’t want to set my kitchen on fire.

I haven’t use it a bunch yet but so far I’m very happy with my purchase.

This air fryer was a great pick up in my opinion because I really love using them in my everyday life. It’s very versatile and this one is huuge, much bigger than I anticipated but that isn’t a bad thing. It can be a bit overwhelming at first but once I got the hang of using it, it was very easy to use in general. I think this would be a great investment for anyone who needs a solid air fryer in their lives to make things easier.
