Cons of TOSHIBA Air Fryer Toaster Oven
The oven doesn’t pause the cooking process automatically when you open the door.
Design of TOSHIBA Air Fryer Toaster Oven
The TOSHIBA Air Fryer Toaster Oven looks fantastic with its charcoal grey color finish. And it blends perfectly with any modern kitchen decor.
As for the size, it’s not too big measuring 18.9x 18.2 x 11 inches. So you can leave it on the countertop permanently without sacrificing too much space.
It’s made with stainless steel and features a drop-down door with a nice ergonomic handle.
Besides, it has a wide control panel with buttons and a turn dial. However, this turn dial is used to change three different settings – time, temp, and cooking functions. And no doubt, this can be confusing for some users.
But don’t get us wrong. To be honest turn dials are great, but it would have been more user-friendly if there was a separate turn dial for the cooking functions.
And just like any other traditional oven, it has a drip tray to catch all the food residue and an oven light to see the food from outside.
Altogether, the TOSHIBA Air Fryer Toaster Oven is aesthetically pleasing, and it’s finished so nicely that you would want to keep this on display.
Is TOSHIBA Air Fryer Toaster Oven Easy to Use?
The TOSHIBA Air Fryer Toaster Oven is fairly Easy to Use. However, we didn’t like the only one turn-dial for three different settings. But after a couple of use, you will become used to it in no time.
Because the control panel is fairly simple with only a few buttons and a medium turn-dial. Using the turn dial you can change between time, temp, and different cooking functions.
That’s not all, with its large capacity you can toast 6 slices of bread, roast 4lb of whole chicken, or bake a 12“ pizza. No doubt this will save so much time and effort in the kitchen.
The toast function also comes with two shade selectors- light and dark. So if your family members like different toast shades this will be really helpful.
Lastly, all the accessories of this unit are dishwasher safe. So there won’t be any hassle with cleaning. The interior of this unit is super easy to clean too. One swipe with a damp cloth and you are good to go.

How to Clean TOSHIBA Air Fryer Toaster Oven Properly?
Cleaning this unit isn’t a hassle at all, as all the attachments are dishwasher-safe. However, the good practice is to wash it by hand. To hand wash it properly, follow these few steps.
First, soak all the used attachments in warm soapy water for an hour or two. If it’s easy to clean, you can skip the soaking part.
Then, use a soft soapy sponge to gently scrub off any food residue, which should come off quickly. Don’t use any abrasive sponge like the scouring pad of the Scotch-Brite as it can leave scratch marks.
Rinse off the attachments with running water. Finally, dry completely with a dish towel before storing.
As for the interior, simply wipe it off with a damp cloth then wipe it again with a dry dish towel to keep the glossiness. Repeat this same step for the exterior too.

Unplug the appliance before starting the cleaning process.
