Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2024
So I've been putting through its paces for the last week. And I have to say - wow! This lil guy is really useful even in a full-service kitchen with a regular big oven, especially if you're cooking for one or just a few people . So far I've made crispy breaded chicken tenders, baked potatoes, air-fried sweet potatoes, roasted Cornish hen, baked apples, air-fried beet chips, pizza, roasted chickpeas, and toast. (Contrary to some reviews here, it can toast bread just fine - the instructions are in the manual, in some notes right before the recipes.)
Everything turned out very well (except one time I did not pay attention and set the temperature wrong and burned my toast.) The chicken was very tender and juicy, and the baked potatoes and roasted hens achieved that nice crispy skin. Roasted chickpeas were crunchy, so were the beet chips and the breaded chicken.
Air-fried food doesn't taste the same as food fried in oil - air-frying is essentially baking with hot air. So this method will deliver a good crunch, but add dipping sauces or even just ketchup if you miss the taste of the oil.
Now the dials are not very precise - there is no "click" between different settings so you have to eyeball it. I did not have any problems with the timer, as some have noted here. The instructions say to twist the dial past your desired time, then backwards to what you want. I've been doing that and the timer seems to be working fine.
I used some of the recipes in the included manual and some that I found online, following suggested temperatures and cook times and so far everything has come out great. If you need to open the door early to check your food or flip it, the fan will stop, but the timer will keep on ticking if it has not reached the end yet. So you may have to add a little time to make up. I do wish it had a light so that you didn't have to open the door to check the food - I guess the bigger model has one.
When using the oven, don't forget to slide the unit forward to the front edge of your counter; otherwise when you open the door, the handle will rest on the countertop and prevent you from opening the door all the way, which makes it difficult to slide the tray out. But you're supposed to move it away from the wall anyway when using it - it vents heat back there, and the top gets hot as well. So just slide it forward when using, away from the wall and any overhanging cabinets.
This smaller oven will not accommodate a whole chicken. However chicken pieces, or 2 Cornish hens fit just fine.
The basket and drip tray seem kind of flimsy, but were not too difficult to clean. I have been using parchment paper to line the drip pan each time I use it, which helps a lot. And a nylon brush is useful for cleaning the basket. The interior of the oven wipes clean very easily with a paper towel or sponge.
This thing exceeded my expectations...I call it my Easy Bake Oven and already prefer it to the big oven for many tasks. Five stars!
So, what have I made with it? A surprising variety of things. From left to right, fries, roasted red bell pepper and onions, and an Aidells chicken burger; a loaf of artisan bread; crisped tortillas for tostadas; panko pork and vegetables; and oatmeal-raisin cookies. You can see on the cookies that, unlike in the oven, you need not worry about the bottom of the cookies burning and sticking to the pan; they are cooked all the way through but the underside isn’t brown, only the top. If I wanted the bottom brown too I could have flipped them for a minute or two. I did flip everything else pictured (except the bell pepper and onions) for even browning.
The bread was the biggest surprise and delight, as I love to make small loaves frequently so I always have fresh bread, and during summer I hate to turn on the big oven for half an hour or more, just for a small loaf. I actually made two loaves that day as an experiment. The first one got a bit too brown and crisp on the top and was off-white (though fully cooked) on the bottom, in for 20 minutes at 400° - it also was flatter because it only had a 30 minute final rise before baking, but this one pictured rose for an hour, and was baked on parchment paper in the elevated basket instead of on the flat metal sheet. But the important thing was that I put it in at 375° for 12 minutes, at which point the outside was fully set; then I flipped it over and gave it ten more minutes, thus browning the underside too. It wasn’t too crispy-crusted to slice well, but it had a very satisfying snap when biting into the crust. I can imagine making perfect banh mi rolls in this oven. This was a fairly wet dough, not quite as wet as the NYT no-knead recipe but close.
Other than a few cooking classes, I had never used a convection oven before. It really cuts down on cooking time and temperature settings. If you have used them, you won’t have as much adjusting to do with this.
One thing I saw mentioned in another review was a loud noise and the buckling of a baking tray. This happened to me but after the tray cooled down it snapped back into the former flatness, and it didn’t affect what I was cooking at all. I’ve had flat pans do this under high heat, especially from one direction only, in a regular oven, so it didn’t alarm me, that is how metals can react to sudden and rapid heating, certain metals more than others (thin aluminum does it more than steel). If it really bothers you, I’m sure you could find a thicker steel pan to use in this oven, but since there’s no lasting damage, I don’t fuss about it.
By the way, air-fried French fries are really unappetizing. Crispy outside, sure, but too dry and flavorless inside. Cuisinart recommends spraying oil on starchy things to keep them from sticking to the basket or pan, but you also really need some fat for flavor and to keep the food from drying out. So don’t think this is going to be the answer to your low-fat diet. (I also can’t stand air-popped popcorn; in fact, I have recently rediscovered popping corn in oil in a saucepan on the stove, the way we did before microwaves and popping machines, and it’s actually delicious if you use good olive oil — even without adding butter! I was shocked.)
If I were buying it again, I might wait till I could afford the more expensive ones with 4 dials and top and bottom heat elements so I could avoid the split-time food-flipping, but I didn’t have more than $100 to spend and now that I’ve figured out how to brown the whole item, I’m happy not to have had to shell out $200-$300. I might also like a better-insulated one, because this does warm up the immediate area and can be hot to the touch; but it’s usually not on for long, and the heat dissipates quickly once it’s turned off.
