Cuisinart TOB-135N Deluxe Convection Toaster Oven Broiler

Yes, for the right buyer. The Cuisinart TOB-135N Deluxe Convection Toaster Oven Broiler ranks #11 in our Best Toaster Ovens list. Its biggest strength: exact Heat sensor actively corrects oven temperature mid-cook, closing the gap with pricier Breville models. The main caveat: no air fry function, unlike the Cuisinart TOA-60 in the same lineup.

The main trade-offs owners and reviewers point to: no air fry function, unlike the Cuisinart TOA-60 in the same lineup; exact Heat correction is not as fast or precise as Breville's Element IQ in side-by-side testing; larger footprint than the TOA-60 for a similar price range.

1800W with convection fan and Exact Heat sensor, 0.8 cubic foot cavity fits a 13x9 pan or 12-inch pizza, Exact Heat sensor monitors and corrects temperature during cooking and 3-year limited warranty.

Worth comparing: Panasonic NB-G110P FlashXpress Compact Toaster Oven, Toshiba AC25CEW-SS Digital Toaster Oven with Convection and KitchenAid KCO255BM Dual Convection Countertop Toaster Oven. Each ranks near it in our research for a slightly different buyer.

For most foods: close enough that most households cannot tell the difference in a side-by-side test. For french fries, chicken wings, and breaded foods: a dedicated basket-style air fryer (where the food is surrounded by airflow on all sides) produces slightly crispier results than a toaster oven rack because the basket geometry exposes the food bottom to direct hot air rather than resting it on a solid rack. For larger items, whole chicken pieces, salmon fillets, vegetables, toaster oven air fry performs identically to a basket air fryer because the air circulation rather than the basket geometry does the work. For households that want both functions in one appliance without two countertop footprints: a well-chosen air fryer toaster oven is the practical choice.

The Ninja DT201 Foodi is the largest widely-available air fryer toaster oven, with a 2-rack capacity that holds a full-size sheet pan on each level simultaneously. It fits a 13-inch pizza, a whole chicken, or two racks of food at once. The Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro BOV900BSS is also a large-capacity option at 1 cubic foot with Element IQ.
