Best Air Fryer Toaster Ovens of 2026

Where the SP101 folds itself away, this Ninja opens up. Two French doors swing wide and stay put, so you can slide the 5-quart basket in and lift it out with one hand instead of dragging a hot rack toward your wrist. That sounds minor until you are shaking fries halfway through a cook, and we think it is the better design for anyone feeding three or four.

Ten functions cover air fry, air roast, whole roast, bake, pizza, broil, reheat, dehydrate, toast, and bagel, with cyclonic air up to 450°F and a basket rated for five pounds of fries. The doors matter for more than access: a flat pan of cinnamon rolls or a 12-inch pizza goes in without dismantling anything, which is where a French-door oven pulls ahead of a basket fryer.

One habit to build early: this oven runs hot. Bagels set two shades lighter than usual still come out dark at the edges on the first try, so start low and add time rather than the reverse. The skin also gets genuinely hot during a long roast, which rules out tucking it against a cabinet or a curtain.

Depth is the specification nobody shops by and everybody runs into. This Cuisinart is 12.25 inches front to back; most of the ovens on this page run 15 to 20, and on a standard counter that gap is the difference between a usable strip of workspace and none at all.

It is not a stripped-down model for the trouble. Eight functions, 0.6 cubic feet, an 1800-watt element set adjustable from 80°F to 450°F, a 60-minute timer with auto shutoff, and a toast shade dial that keeps you out of a menu. The accessory kit is the generous part: oven rack, baking pan and drip tray, air fry basket, and a ceramic nonstick reversible grill/griddle that turns the oven into a flat-top for pancakes or a quick steak.

We prefer the dials to a touchscreen, and not out of nostalgia. Control boards and heating elements are the two things that fail in this category, and a knob has nothing to fail. Add a three-year limited warranty and this becomes the pick for someone who wants the oven still working when the novelty wears off.

Twenty-one and a half inches wide, 33.7 pounds, and the most expensive oven on this list — the Breville asks for a dedicated landing spot and a real budget. What it gives back is the closest thing to a second wall oven we tested.

Thirteen functions is not a marketing number here. Beyond toast, bake, broil, and air fry it proofs bread dough, dehydrates, slow cooks, and runs a pizza setting that can replace delivery on a weeknight. Five quartz elements move power around the cavity, and the super convection setting is genuinely faster than the standard fan: sheet-pan vegetables and a roast chicken came out browned across the whole pan rather than only at the corners.

The caveats are money and mass. It needs a deep counter, it is heavy enough that repositioning is a two-hand job, and the thermostat reads off enough that an inexpensive oven thermometer is worth buying in the first week and trusting over the dial. Long-term, the heating elements are the part to watch.

A reversible ceramic grill plate and a temperature probe are the two things no other oven here includes, and together they change what the machine is for. The plate lays char marks on steaks and burgers and flips to a griddle for pancakes; the probe lets the oven hold a roast at a target temperature instead of a guess. If you have been missing a grill in a small kitchen, this is the closest thing in this group.

The rest of the sheet is the broadest on the page: 12 functions, 142 presets, 30 memory slots, a 50°F to 500°F range that beats everything else here, adjustable top and bottom heat, four rack positions, and 1800 watts. The accessories are dishwasher safe and PFAS-free, which is more than most of these ovens can say.

It is also the roomiest for real cookware. A 30-quart cavity swallows a quarter sheet pan, so cookies, a tray of vegetables, and a whole chicken all fit the same machine, and at 17.8 pounds it is light enough to move when you need the counter back.

Two honest reservations. The preset library gets in the way more than it helps — 142 options is a menu to scroll, not a shortcut, and we ended up cooking manually most of the time. And the control layout takes a session or two to learn, so keep the manual within reach for the first week.

The plainest oven here is also the easiest to hand to a small household. A 16-inch footprint, a 0.6-cubic-foot interior, and a panel with actual labels instead of a menu: you turn two dials and it air fries, bakes, broils, and toasts. Nothing about it needs a manual, which is more than several of the ovens above can claim.

It holds more than the size suggests — three pounds of wings, six slices of toast, a 12-inch frozen pizza, or a 9-by-11 pan — and a top-mounted fan with four elements pushes air at up to 450°F, the same basic setup as the bigger Cuisinart. For a tray of vegetables and a couple of pork chops, that is the entire job, and it does it without asking you to learn a preset library first.
