BOV860BST Smart Oven Air Fryer and Convection Oven, Black Stainless Steel

Fantastic oven air fryer it is very easy to use the knobs and display are well built. The style is very nice also. The oven cooks very well and I use it almost every day. I bought this as an upgrade to a smaller air fryer and I like the larger capacity of this one. It has a nice pre heating function and a wide variety of other cooking options although I have not tried them all. Keeping it clean is a problem as the grease builds up quickly especially if you use it frequently.

I was planning to buy a small, inexpensive replacement for my 20 year old, 2 rack Oster which finally bit the dust. After spending way too much time researching, it dawned upon me that since I use this every day, why not upgrade to bigger and better and so I did. This countertop oven is awesome. Wish I had done this long ago. Now for some details. The dimensions listed for the product are not accurate. I measured and found 13" D x 18.5" W x 10.5" H to be the actual size. Nonetheless, this product is ideal in so many ways and full of nice features. My old toaster oven had 2 rack positions and this one has 3 which is nice. When you open the door with the rack inside, the rack pops out with the rack guide which is very nice. It has a three plug outlet cord to run the 1800 watts and so far no issues with the kitchen circuit. The preheat time is fast and sweet. This model comes in a very nice blue and has 10 function controls, which is plenty. This Damson Blue Smart Oven is what I consider a mid range size in that it has three rack positions compared to many small toaster ovens which have two and the larger ovens have four. This unit is an upgrade in size from my older toaster oven and that is exactly what I wanted for the long haul. You can use parchment paper for most everything, which is so much better environmentally. Say goodbye to all the foil usage. While the manual does say to not line the crumb tray with foil, you can use foil to wrap your food if needed. A note about "Convection" and "Air Fryer" is also important since many brands now tout this in their marketing materials. In my research, what I learned is that these two terms simply mean, it has a fan. The fan is used to disperse heat evenly throughout the small chamber. This unit does come with a good sized air fryer basket but I have not tried it yet. The controls are very easy and simple to use and are of very good quality. Other than all of the features and size, I chose this model and brand based upon how high the Breville brand rates on most top ten lists. In my view, this is a great value and highly recommended for the cost.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars I bought this to replace a sad 4-slice toaster that was basically a “warm bread suggestion machine.” I hesitated because my full-size oven has convection… but turning on the whole oven to crisp nuggets felt like using a semi truck to deliver a taco. This countertop oven won me over immediately. Why I’m obsessed: Toasted bagels = perfection: First use was a bagel and we were instantly converted. I didn’t know bagels could be that perfect. Fits a 12" pizza: Yes, a full 12-inch pizza fits (aka the exact size of most grocery store frozen pizzas). It even comes with a pizza pan. Actually cooks a real meal: Big enough to do 4 full-size chicken breasts easily. It can handle a meal for 2–4 people depending on appetites. Fast: No 20-minute preheat lifestyle. This thing is ready to cook right out of the gate. Cooks everything well: Reheats takeout, nuggets, homemade mac n cheese, frozen pizza, fresh pizza… it just nails it. Pizza reheat is elite: Crispy edges, melty top, no microwave sadness. Easy controls: Dials + digital display are intuitive. I didn’t need the manual. Plug in, go. Looks amazing: I got the olive green and it’s genuinely beautiful on the counter. Easy to keep clean: I use fitted parchment liners to keep cheese/oil off the rack + crumb tray, which saves me a ton of cleanup time. Makes me cook more: I use it several times a day because it removes the hassle (and waiting) of the full oven. Noise + heat (real-life stuff): Noise: On air fry it sounds like a soft hair dryer. Not obnoxious. Heat: The front behind the handle does get hot (there’s a caution label right where it heats). Use oven mitts or tongs and you’re fine. Price reality: I was nervous spending around $350 on a countertop appliance (first time for me), but I don’t regret it. I use it constantly. Quick answers: Fits a 12" pizza? Yes Big enough for meals? Yes (2–4 people) Easy to use? Yes Preheat needed? Minimal Reheats food well? Yes (pizza especially) Loud? No (soft hair dryer sound on air fry) Gets hot? Yes, front area behind handle Easy to clean? Yes (liners help a lot) Would buy again? Absolutely

I am renovating my kitchen so needed something to get me by while we are in construction. This oven is amazing. Easy for my kids to use as well. Love that it’s family size and has so many different options. Happy I went with this Breville - highly recommend it

Since buying the Breville, we hardly ever use our full sized oven, and have also retired our toaster. Heats way faster than a full sized oven, and cooks as well, or better

Not my first Breville Smart Oven. Love it. I especially love the blue. Makes me smile every day. But sadly, the crumb tray is so difficult to keep clean. Crumbs are easy, but any oil or butter or drips and it stains so easily. I’m always scrubbing. There must be an easier coating they could put on.

I've had this oven 10 days now and I know it's going to be invaluable!! Air Fryer cooked my drumsticks to perfection. Pizza function was awesome. A quiche was baked perfectly and reheated without the crust turning to mush! Our Thanksgiving dinner was reheated to the right temperature without drying it out. And .... it toasts perfectly! Easy to clean. Easy to follow settings. Highly recommend this Breville machine. Happy cooking!!

Bought this toaster oven with airfry partly because we had the previous model. Main reason is their toasting ability with a Bagel mode. Bagel mode is important for bagels, english muffins, pizza reheat, etc. Not only did they add Airfry but an enhanced convection mode. The added lighting is a great feature (light shines on the food, for example comes on 30sec before toast is done so you can see the brownness - very thoughtful by some designer) Overall a great unit - if you have previous model you’ll be amazed how quiet this one is in regular convection mode, almost can’t hear it; of course enhanced or airfry mode has the fan noise. For us best possible combination unit and was surprised at the increased quality and convenience features.
