Thanks for this! Hope whatever new one you buy works out for another 20 years

Agree! The rest of the Breville has some wear but the liner pan looks pretty much like the day I bought it

My pleasure 😊

Glad you enjoyed it!

you love yours as much as I do ;)

Manufacturers need to make the interior nonstick to grease, that will allow easier cleanup. Itried to clean up, but through time, grease wins, and I end buying another one.

GTFO two kitchens when most cant afford a tiny house.

We will absolutely film that video!

Hope you enjoy it!

I notice that air frying is better if you rotate it though. The results are way more even. Especially with thinner french fry.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Glad it was helpful. Thanks

Bro, I thought the same thing but trust me, it’s totally worth it

Yum! Airfried cauliflower is amazing in the air fryer. Agree with you about the timing of the turn reminder

Great tip. Thanks for sharing

That’s great!

Thanks for sharing!!

My breville smart oven just died…..its not the same as the air fryer pro…….i know that it is the fuse….i know i can change it….but i just dont feel like it…..so i spent the money & bought this one!! Can’t wait to try it! I loved my old breville….and I haven’t used my oven in years~

After a coupon years the door spring will go. If that goes everything shot. Imas there is a switch that the handle rest on to make the temperature timer works. It will just flash and the. I cannot regulate your temperature . It’s easy to fix if someone is handy. You have to buy an after market spring as u cannot get it from breville. Breville wants u to buy a new oven. It’s simple fix. The new pro is just to add price it is exactly the same with an app. It’s not like ur controlling any major function. So save yourself the $100. It’s the same as the one 5yrs ago . Nothing change as the app is not a functional feature .

Thanks for the tip

You are so welcome!

she doesn't know what she's talking about. Follow the manual

Those two discrepancies caught my attention as well. No foil. 4 inch clearance on sides and back and 6 in on top. 👍

I just bought mine and just read the manual so I was 😮when she said to lined with tin foil and only 1” .

I’m glad you found it helpful!

Thanks!

@@everythingbutpasta - I actually own eight Breville kitchen appliances, and each one is tops in its category. I always watch a ton of product reviews, such as yours, before making my purchase decision. And in comparisons where Breville is pitted against the rest, Breville typically comes out on top. The downside is normally cost, never performance. However, as I shared, you get what you pay for. I say buy once and be satisfied-for a long, long time!

Absolutely. I love my Breville and feel it’s totally worth the money

@@everythingbutpasta - Well, I brought home my new Breville Smart Air Fryer Pro today. Currently selling at Best Buy for $319.99. Plus, I just moved and a neighbor gave me a Best Buy coupon for $75 as a house warming gift-even better!!

Hope it treats you well and you love it as much as I love mine!

I’m working on a new video that shows what I cooked in a month using mine so that should be out soon and will show the versatility

Glad you liked it!

All good points!

Thanks! It’s a no knead bread. I can share the recipe in a future video

I just finished filming my cleaning video and if the alternative is cleaning the bottom crumb catcher vs replacing with tin foil, it’s a risk I’m willing to take. However I always put it matte side up as you pointed out

Hope the review helped you make a decision

@@everythingbutpasta yes it had. Just ordered one. And waiting for Amazon delivery. Thank you again!

You’re welcome. Hope it works great for you!! I’m not sure if the capacity size changes based on location unfortunately

If by non-stick mat you mean a silicone mat, I used to do that too but I found it discolours over time and I didn’t like that. That’s when I switched to tinfoil. I agree, the toaster feature is quite slow but I prefer it to having another appliance on my counter

I don’t generally use the silpat in the air fryer tray (may have done it once) for that exact reason - airflow. But it does fit an 9x13 one.

You’re welcome. Hope the review helped

Yes it does! I’ve done it, just move the rack down to the lowest position

I find the toast browns evenly as long as it’s on the correct rack. Crumb tray, yes and easy to clean. It’s no louder than my kitchen fan except for when it beeps to let you know it’s done or ready to rotate

I haven’t tried it on a steak but I don’t doubt it would be great at that!

It does a decent job dehydrating if you only have one or two trays in. Normal dehydration is around 100f which is 37 C. The higher you go, the faster it will dehydrate but risks burning and there is nutritional impacts too but I’m not an expert on that

Glad we could help!

I used to use a silicone mat on the bottom for cleanup but I switched to using aluminum foil. I just leave it on the crumb tray all the time. I do sometimes put a try underneath but I feel like it interrupts the airflow so then that’s when the aluminum foil comes in handy. It does get dirty so it needs regular cleaning (once every month or 2) - most parts get clean but the inside of the oven itself is the part where cleanup is less than ideal. I have a full cleaning video on the channel if you want to see how I clean it

Thank you :)

I'm not entirely sure what type of metal the interior is, it looks like what is in a normal oven

Totally agree. If you can make it work, go for the bigger one

18.9x13.58 are the listed measurements

Good price!

It does a good job of reheating and this setting doesn't need to wait to preheat which is better (compared to the other settings where the time starts once it reaches temp). I usually reheat for 6-7 minutes

And tastes amazing too ;)

Will be working on that shortly!

Turning the oven on/off is just with the start button. The screen with the options stays on permanently so you’d need to unplug if you want that off but I assume it draws minimal power. I haven’t found a way to disable the preheat button but the warm feature starts counting down without preheating so you could just use that if you don’t want to wait or just put your item in anyway. I haven’t found a need for a pause button but I just add more time if I need

Personal preference ;)

No that doesn’t sound normal. I get steam in the oven (when I bake bread I often put a tray with water to purposely create steam) but it never affects the LCD screen

That’s what I’m thinking also. I tried researching about the issue and it seems quite a number of folks also experience the same. I’m still waiting for Breville customer support.

It’s 1 cubic foot. It can apparently fit a 14lb turkey and fits a normal 9x13 pan or muffin tray

I line the crumb catcher with tinfoil. The heat elements do get a bit dirty but it’s the best I can do to at least keep the bottom clean

I don't usually use cooking spray but I coat my veggies in olive oil. I also usually put a tray lined with a Silpat in the bottom rack to catch any dripping oil. It cleans pretty well that way but it does need a deep scrub clean every few weeks.

You may want to put a tray underneath with a bit of liquid in it to collect the drippings and see if that helps

I can't recommend the tinfoil method to others, just share what I do and note it's not the recommended method.

The air fryer itself has 4 “pedestal” feet made of a silicone so it can sit directly on the counter without any damage to the counter

Which essentially makes the air fryer sit about an inch above the counter

@@everythingbutpasta thank you! I’d have to jump out a window if I ruined my new quartz counters. (Not really about the window jumping)!🤣😂

If you’re nervous you can put a silpat underneath. I do have to move the air fryer from time to time just to clean under it so it would serve double duty

I keep mine on a stainless steel counter (with nothing underneath) & have never had an issue with the counter getting discolored or burnt.

Yes you can melt/reheat. There is actually a reheat feature

I haven’t tried that one. Sorry

No, that hasn’t been my experience

I figured it out recently - you can have 2 different heat settings. Eg.: 15 mins at 450 to blast something with heat and then 45 mins at 350 to slow cook. Super useful

Yes you can do all the options of baking/dehydrating/broiling etc in addition to air frying

I do not recommend the air fryer basket to go in the dishwasher as it will rust but the other trays are ok in the dishwasher

Anything under 9 inches or less across!

I’ll be making a cleaning video soon to talk about that

2nd question about cleaning that I've seen. Iam hoping you will focus on cleaning the walls, elements and fan area. Please! Others have shown cleaning of the 4acks and crumb tray. Not helpful because I think we can all manage to do the racks and tray so again please focus on the interior that is where the problem is.vthank you!

Heats up faster and seems to cook faster than my convection oven. And presumably using less energy to heat (though I haven’t tested it scientifically)

I would say 4½ minutes. It's the one thing that would maybe benefit from a single use appliance, but I don't have a toaster and the Breville still toasts well! Just not as quickly

I use it pretty much every day. Today I airfried some spring rolls and dehydrated some chives

It can replace a microwave but does take slightly longer to reheat things. But the plus is that it keeps things crispy instead of getting limp

You can change it between no convection (fan off), convection and super convection

That's unfortunate - perhaps you can supplement with a separate timer, but not ideal for sure

Love the pizza mode!

No, it’s a black coating similar to what is in your normal oven, but I don’t know what the actual type of metal it is

Thanks for the kind words

I’m planning to do a cleaning video next

I fill my sink, just enough to cover it, with hot soapy water and put it in there right away so it soaks while I eat and then it is easy to clean.

Yes. Today I used it for toast for breakfast and now my husband is air frying chicken for dinner. And that’s a low usage day I would say, considering it’s a weekend

I realized my moms recipe is for apple pie not crisp. I used the same recipe for the filling but made a crisp instead of pastry for the top

Thanks for the tip

What is yours called?

Thanks for the feedback

Certainly better than where it started

There are tons of 1 and 2 star reviews on Amazon for lots of things that are simply a matter of ignorance. Look up any cast iron or High carbon steel pan. The number of negative reviews for rust is astonishing. With over 8000 reviews and 84% being 5 star saying there are tons of 1 and 2 doesn't hold much weight. I am on my second one of these ovens and can testify that the majority of the issues are due to user error. My sons used the first one a lot and did all kinds of damage in a short amount of time because they wouldn't read the instructions or heed mine. I didn't buy a replacement until they were out of the house. Several years later it is still going strong. The door hinge issue is due to weight being put on the door while it is open. On my first one my son sprung the door, but I was able to repair it enough to make it usable. The knobs and fan are electronic items, it happens on occasion. Breville is good about warranty on that stuff. The glass shattering is no different than the glass on a regular oven or the windshield on your car. When glass is hot and you put something cold on it it will at least crack and occasionally explode. Follow manufacturer instructions and common sense.

I can only provide my experience but you can use other reviews to help make an informed decision and decide for yourself

It's the upspeak for me. Like everything is a question

I haven’t had any issues with my display

@@everythingbutpasta Mine was a quite old unit so I hope with my new Joule they fixed those issues. Thanks.

We have that same issue - pushing buttons repeatedly to get the function we want! But, our unit is 7 years old. Waiting until it’s completely dead before investing in a new one!

@@fallenice77 Thank you for the info/response. I now have a Joule and the display is gorgeous. Of course it's new, but it seems to be much better than the previous versions. Almost like the display is completely separated from anything being able to intrude on it. Was quite expensive about $550, but since I had my last one for such a long time, I'm hoping this one will be even better. Maybe it would be nice for you also to do a review on the same oven I think you may like it, and also it is a little hard to find.. Best wishes.

I’ve had a very positive experience with mine

It's just disappointing to me to buy something I've been needing for a long time and being very happy about my purchase; then find out there could be problems with it.... So I'm at a crossroads with myself ; do I keep it, or return it. Any extra positive input would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure what you heard that suggests that there could be problems with it - every product has a risk of something malfunctioning but I've had mine over a year and it still works like the day I got it and showing no signs of slowing down. This is with regular use (pretty much daily)
