From Breville to Cuisinart to a high-end Lotus, there’s a new breed of toaster ovens that can air fry, bake, roast, grill and more. We reviewed them to find the best
Toaster ovens have always been extremely versatile appliances, but the newest models take it to another level. A modern toaster oven can do away with your dehydrator, air fryer, microwave and even your traditional gas oven. They heat up faster than ovens, cook your food faster, and use less electricity. Many of the toaster ovens in this guide are even capacious enough for families of four, and can roast a whole chicken.
They are also consistently excellent appliances. I tested 10 different models for this guide, and they generally produced such good results that you really can’t go wrong. But with so many sizes, features and price points, it can still be challenging to find the right fit for you and your kitchen. Fortunately, we found great models for every size and preference.
