$264.29as of Jun 7

The Cuisinart TOA-60 is the best value air-fryer toaster oven: a ~$130, 1800W, 7-function unit that toasts six slices evenly and roasts a 4-lb chicken. RTINGS rates it good for toasting, though its air-fry crisp is closer to a convection oven than a true air fryer and its analog dials run hot. For a one-box toaster-oven-plus-occasional-air-fryer on a budget, it's a strong pick.

Strengths
  • Adds a true air-fry basket plus 7 functions in one ~$130 countertop unit
  • Makes evenly browned six-slice toast — RTINGS rates it good for toasting
  • 1800W with a roomy 0.6 cu ft cavity — fits a 12-inch pizza or 4-lb chicken
Watch-outs
  • Air-fry results are merely okay — close to convection-oven crisp, not true air-fryer crisp
  • Analog dials lack precise temperature control and run hot
  • TechGearLab measured the worst temperature accuracy in its test group

Ranked #3 in Best Toaster Ovens Under $200
Ninja Foodi SP101 Digital Air Fry Oven
$249.99as of Jun 7

The Ninja Foodi SP101 is the best space-saving pick: an 8-in-1 digital air-fry oven that flips up vertically to reclaim counter space. Reviewed.com found it toasts very evenly and heats up fast, and it fits 9 slices of toast or a 13-inch pizza. Its air-fry mode can crisp unevenly versus a dedicated air fryer, and it can't hold tall items, but for small kitchens that want air fry plus toast, the flip-away design is uniquely practical.

Strengths
  • Flip-away design folds vertically to free up counter space when not in use
  • Toasts very evenly and heats up fast — Reviewed.com praised even toasting
  • 8-in-1: Air Fry, Air Roast, Air Broil, Bake, Bagel, Toast, Dehydrate, Keep Warm
Watch-outs
  • Air-fry results can come out uneven versus a dedicated air fryer
  • No setting for extremely light toast
  • Can't hold tall items like a whole chicken

How they stack up

Cuisinart TOA-60 Air Fryer Toaster Oven

The value air-fryer pick: cheaper than the Breville Smart Oven Compact BOV670 and adds a real air-fry basket, but cooks less evenly and runs hotter. Crisps about as well as the Ninja Foodi SP101 but with simpler analog controls; bigger cavity than the Hamilton Beach 31156.

Ninja Foodi SP101 Digital Air Fry Oven

The space-saver: its flip-away body reclaims counter space no other pick here offers. Crisps about as well as the Cuisinart TOA-60 with better digital controls; less even-baking than the Breville Smart Oven Compact BOV670; holds more toast than the Hamilton Beach 31156 but can't take tall items like the Toshiba AC25CEW's rotisserie chicken.
