The essential addition of a metal crumb tray and a non-stick interior makes it easier to catch the inevitable droppings from toasts and clean up any sticky bits. It was also much more charred on the bottom than the top. Six toasted as expected, while eight was almost overkill in the toaster, which came out smoking. The parts not directly over the heating element didn't toast as dark either. Levels two and four toasted pretty evenly on the bottom side closest to the heating element, with unexpected black lines really popping through on the second to lowest settings. In the following photos, I toasted whole wheat bread at levels 2,4,6, and 8.
I wish they got a little browner, but I likely would have needed more olive oil.Ĭommon to most toaster oven designs, only one side will actually get those grill lines, making it perfect for a bagel, but less "even" on bread. We placed a single layer of fries at 370☏/ 187☌ for 14 minutes, though the thicker fries got crispier at the 17-minute mark. Whipping up some steak fries (pretty much the thickest you could try) were ready within 15 minutes. Deep fryer fries are so satisfying, but high in oil and fat, while baking just seems to take forever. When it comes to an air fryer, perhaps the most obvious food you'll want to try out are fries.
Of course, others may prefer the unobtrusive sound. You'll want to keep track of the cooking, however, as the finishing chime is not very loud, so if you're playing music or in the midst of a conversation while cooking, you could miss it. While not as large as your oven, this countertop oven is still large capacity with the capacity to fit a 9"x13" sheet cake or one-pan dinner, 12-inch pizza pan, or up to 2 full-size chickens (3.4 lbs each). The Double Convection Bake design can also cook chicken up to 20% faster than the Dual Convection Bake when compared to the bake setting for a 3 lb. In air-fry mode, the 360° Air Fry System means that you don't have to rotate your food halfway through, and all sides will crisp up just the way you want it. The machine itself also runs pretty quietly, even on air fry, it's not intrusive. The oven will preheat for most settings, and takes less than five minutes once the pre-heat temp has been reached, the countdown timer immediately begins. The inside light stays on during the entirety of cooking, allowing you to watch your food crisp, or keep an eye on your recipe. The start button initiates cooking, there is a convection button to toggle convection cooking and a cancel button.
LARGE COUNTDOWN TIMERS MANUAL
The manual did not clarify which parts of the toaster would heat up if it were one or six slices of bread, so I simply put all 6. The more pieces of bread, as well as the higher the setting, the longer it takes to toast. On toast and bagel settings, you'll use the knob to designate the desired toast level (between 1 and 8) and the number of pieces you're making (up to 6). The addition of a Proofing function is a nice feature for bakers, and something that's not as common of a feature in similar products.ĭepending on the setting, you'll be prompted to adjust your desired temperature with the black dial next to the digital screen, and press it to toggle back and forth between time. You'll find settings including Air Fry, Bake, Broil, Reheat, Keep Warm, Toast, Bagel, Dehydrate, and Proof. When it's time to start cooking, you'll turn the dial to your desired setting.
