TOSHIBA Countertop Microwave Oven Air Fryer Combo, Inverter, Convection, Broil, Speedy Combi, Even Defrost, Humidity Sensor, Mute Function, 27 Auto Menus, 1.0 cu.ft, 1000W, Stainless Steel

Let me tell you this thing cooks. I read some reviews complaining about moisture accumulation during microwaving. This is a good thing not a bad thing. It traps all the moisture in the cooking chamber so that it does not dry out the food. Microwaves work by heating up water molecules in the food. As they heat they vaporize. If it were completely dry, then all the moisture would have escaped or it doesn’t work. Once 100% humidity is reached it will stop drying out the food as the moisture would not evaporate. So again seeing moisture accumulation is good during microwave function. Broil bake works better than any countertop oven I have had. In fact it works almost as well as the top oven in my kitchenaid double oven that costs 4500$. I am just using this during the renovations. But I will definitely keep it to use in my new kitchen because it heats up so fast and is great for smaller items. Combi cook is pretty awesome. It uses the bake and microwave functions together. It keeps things crispy on the outside while quickly heating them to the core. Defrost is also fantastic. Defrosts a full chicken breast without actually cooking any of it. Super great. I have not used the sensor cook function yet. The only con is that I don’t think it’s something children or anyone not intelligent enough about metal in a microwave. It comes with racks and such but you CANNOT use them in microwave function. They will spark. This is the reason I think most companies don’t make a microwave combo. User error. But if you are smart enough not to be dumb then you will love it. If you are a foodie cook on a budget, you will love this product!

This is, or better yet, has the potential to be a great microwave. It was much quieter than my 2012 Panasonic inverter microwave. This was my first convection microwave and I was pleased with the convection cooking. Unfortunately, the microwave power input was a disappointment. The microwave is advertised as using 1250 watts but this particular microwave is consuming 1660 watts at the wall plug using a killawatt meter. Another disappointment were the presets. There is no way to adjust or customize them. I, basically, ended up manually selecting a temperature and time. The included accessories were a good bundle. I feel the air fryer, bake trays, and racks should last through many cooks. The final disappoint was the user manual. The manual provides directions for operating the different functions of the unit, but does not give you the details of what the functions do, such as weight and/or time. For example combi-cooking does not detail how much time is microwaving and how much time is broiling/convecting nor does it give information on temperature. The high power consumption, however, was a deal breaker for me. I bought the microwave mainly because it was an inverter model and was supposed to make efficient use of its input power. Sadly, it was a poor performer in this regards. The unit was great otherwise. Update 12/11/2022: I've own the microwave combo unit for 2 months now and my attitude towards this microwave has changed. I know, truly believe, this is a great microwave. I've had a chance to air fry multiple chicken wings meals, convection cook sirloins steaks, convection bake a chocolate cake, convection cook both a store bought frozen pizza and a from-scratch homemade pizza, defrost both chicken and beef, microwave bacon, microwave a potato, and sensor cook/reheat a Hungry-Man frozen tv dinner. I promise each one of these items were cooked to my satisfaction. I did overcook some items and I did undercook some items. But I was persistent and eventually learned the right combination of time and temperature. I have since gotten over the power consumption issue and focused more on the useability of the microwave. I am completely happy now. One more thing is I have learned how put a cup of lemon juice water in the microwave and microwave it for 6 minutes. It makes cleaning oil, grease, and any stuck on particles easier to wipe or scrub off.

This little Combo Microwave fits the microwave cabinet in my kitchen with enough vent room on the sides, back, and top. The inside is smaller than the other microwaves I've owned and you need to tuck the corners of wax paper or paper towels under the dinner plate when using the microwave feature or else it will catch as the plate spins around. The Convection feature cooks evenly as advertised. I have cooked Chicken Breast in the baking pan and Bread with success. The Air Fryer seems to work well, but I have not used a conventional Air Fryer to compare it to. I love the Eco Button Feature to turn the clock off and save a bit of electricity. The feature pad is not back lit, but easy enough to read. I still need to get the instruction manual out to use some of the features if I don't want to use the pre-programmed options. Using the dial is not as intuitive as pressing number buttons and limits you. I have not figured out a way to set the time for a minute and 45 seconds. It has to be a minute and 30 seconds or 2 minutes.

This unit, a TOSHIBA 7-in-1 Countertop Microwave Oven Air Fryer Combo does have a nice feature set. The ability to air-fry was the reason we purchased the unit. Unfortunately, Toshiba quality control and customer support is extremely poor. The unit itself It is very light and flimsy and just exudes an inferior product. The door rattles when you close it. The worst issue is that the turntable grinds and "groans" when the unit is on. We are not talking about a subtle sound, but a fairly loud noise grinding noise. We triple checked how the turntable is installed, but without any different result. Unfortunately, this started several days after the Amazon return period, so I had to contact Toshiba support. These are the most miserable support folks I have ever encountered. Their "requirement" to talk further to you is: a picture of the Model # plate, the order (that says PAID), and the serial #. Those 3 are no big deal, but they ALSO require a video of the problem, seemingly not a dig deal either. You send all 4 files in via text or via email. Well, text is pretty easy - so I sent all 4 files via text. No response from Toshiba. I called again (call #2), and they said they did not receive the files and to retext everything, which I did. No response from Toshiba, I called again, (call #3) and they said NOT TO TEXT, but to email the 4 files, which I immediately did. No reply from Toshiba. I called again (call #4) and they said they DID receive 2 files, but the video file and jpg of the order was not received and to send those two files via email again. No response from Toshiba. I called again (call #5) and they said to shorten the video and resend the email. No response from Toshiba. I called again (call #6) and they said to shorten the video to 10 seconds or less and resend, which I did. No response from Toshiba. I called again (yes this is call #7) and I again asked if they received the files. Initially they said "NO" BUT, they looked again and magically they found the "missing" two files and watched and listened to the video file. The customer support person agreed that I indeed had a valid issue and said the turntable sounded "terrible" and that Toshiba would issue a full refund. So at least I was partially satisfied with their response ------ BUT ----- on the morning of March 31st, 2023, Toshiba calls back and says "your refund has been denied". This is now call #8. I asked to speak to a supervisor and she explains that it is Toshiba policy to not issue a refund, contradicting what the prior customer service person said. She said the unit will now be replaced. OK - fine: Now 8 calls in total, about 2 hours of wasted time and the Toshiba customer service folks really don't know what end is up. Based on this experience, I am unlikely to ever purchase a Toshiba product again.

It took me four tries to finally get the right combo unit. Firstly, I have limited counter space. I wanted an airfryer originally. Got one but it had peculiar issues I was not expecting or what happens when you mix molded plastic with high heat. Decided that the unit I buy must be all metal with limited use of plastics both for recycling latter on and reducing BPA contamination. That's when I decided to look at the combi function appliances. Setting this as the prequel to my review for the purpose of contexting my following comments on this unit. I want to make it obvious That this item has limitation many of which have been written in previous reviews. Had , I had a bigger counter , more space ,etc. I would have made my kitchen gadgetry demands and purchases quite different. Pros' This unit does indeed do all that it is asked to do. It has plenty of power (Wattage) to serve all functions. It is well built , good looking on the counter takes less space than my old microwave. The microwave wattage is larger than my previous one so it does better than my old one. The unit produces no unwanted odors. It has smaller clearance valve to other objects and walls than most of the others, another important factor in my decision. The benefit of the combi functions where I can microwave and airfryer ( convection) or broil at the same time. This is a huge time saver in cooking while at the same time giving a higher desired result than just microwaving food. Personally , I would love to have bought the 1.6 cu ft. the 4 in 0ne model instead , but its size was still to big for my counter. Overall I am extremely pleased and would indeed recommend. Cons' Most who have read the reviews with this model will hear some of the same things regarding this unit> Alas, No mechanical device is perfect either by design or omission for the sake of trying to do to much with one item. So, yes the presets and the controls are a complete boondoggle to the mind and renders simplicity of use to the back of the line. I actually wasn't originally going to buy this, because of this fact alone, and did in fact try another model, one of my many tries. It was one of the highest rated and most expensive one. But it was a clunker to me and didn't at all appear to be built to last, I returned it quickly without a second thought. The number of combinations this unit has for cooking I guess just makes difficult for any controller to be easy and I assume they all suffer in this way. It is manageable and I am gradually gaining confidence in selecting the right combinations of pushes and selections to match my own desired cooking results. Other than this unit is operates flawlessly. Is easy to use and keep clean. I will address one other concern or flaw that some have commented on, "the moisture build up" . Indeed , if one does not pay attention this does indeed happen. It is a minor issue, INMO, that is easily remedied by leaving the door open after using the unit for about 10 mins. It does not happen all the time and is only the result of certain cooking functions and types of food being cooked ( mostly liquid beverages or soups and Microwaving). I assume somehow that this unit has an interior insulating blanket or mat to keep the outside metal from becoming to hot. I am guessing it also inadvertently creates a moisture barrier for the inside. As stated it is only relevant to to easily comprehensible cooking functions and types of food/ beverage which are understood immediately and one knows to not close door after this use and allow for unit to air out. Much like modern washing machines require that the door be left ajar. Overall a great purchase worth the money spent. Thanks.

Big plusses: variable power inverter microwave, recessed radiant quartz tube broiler elements, capacitive touch control pad (like your phone), controllable temperature air fry function, really quiet, Also good: pictograms show you what mode you're in, can add/subtract time remaining while running, 1-touch to go microwaving, polished stainless interior, oven initial/preheat uses both broiler and bake (hidden resistive) elements for faster heating. Smart defrost presets vary power from high to low over time for better defrosting, single motion to open door (latch in handle). Good to know: Combi function acts by alternating between microwave and bake/broil modes, not both at once. A std 9.5" round cooling rack fits nicely in the bake pan so fatty meats can drain while cooking. Metalware can be used in all but the pure microwave mode. Most of the hot exhaust air exits bottom-front. I wish: while good that the pan and 2 racks nest for stowage, the 2 pans do not nest. No program stacking (like, defrost then cook). Controls not backlit. Amusing: every recipe in the included cookbook uses the convection mode only.

Update: A replacement unit suddenly showed up at our door about a month after I notified them. I’m glad they honored the warranty. It had all the trays and additions that came with the original. I just swapped the unit and carefully packed the rest to be returned with the defective unit. There was no return label or instructions on where to ship it. They finally told me they wouldn’t take it back, so I had to deal with that. We really do like the combo unit. Perhaps we got a random one that failed, but I’m waiting to see if the replacement will make it past the one-year warranty. If they actually build them to last, I would be fan for life. I hope they improve the design to make them last longer. Original post: I was thrilled to get this combo microwave last November. It looked nice, worked well, was quiet, and saved me lots of counter space with its combined uses. We loved it and used it well for months. Then, about three weeks before the warranty expired, it suddenly flipped the circuit on the breaker outlet during normal use. When the power was reset, the microwave no longer worked. My last GE microwave, purchased for $45, lasted 28 years and was still working when we tossed it for this sad unit. I’ve regretted it every day since I emailed Toshiba support on 11/13/25. At first, support seemed great. They first said they would refund me, but then said they would send a replacement and I could mail the other unit back instead. I was happy with that, but then they said to wait. And wait. And wait. 27 days later, there is still no resolution and they’ve stopped responding to me. Our unit still air fries and broils, but no microwave, the main reason we use it. I’m so sad and disappointed. $300+ later, I have no idea what to do now. Buyer beware.

We just upgraded our kitchen with this Toshiba 8‑in‑1 microwave oven, and I am blown away by everything this small appliance can do. We were replacing our microwave that recently began arcing and smoking. While I was researching microwaves, I discovered this unbelievable all-in-one sleek unit. It not only replaces our microwave, but it also allowed us to remove our countertop convection oven enabling more counter space! It Air Fries, Bakes, Broils, Reheats, Defrosts, uses Convection, and even has an odor‑removal mode. It also has Inverter Technology, which means it cooks with smooth, steady power instead of the old on‑off bursts — so food heats more evenly, i.e., no more cold on the inside and hot on the outside! I had no idea that anything like this was on the market. What I love most is how easy it is to use. Every mode is simple to understand, the controls are intuitive, and the results are fantastic — crispy foods stay crispy, baked dishes come out evenly cooked, and reheated leftovers taste like they were made fresh. If you’re looking to declutter your kitchen or replace multiple appliances with one smart, efficient machine, this Toshiba is absolutely worth it.

Horrible. I am extremely unsatisfied. This item stopped working and began sparking and smoking within 10 months of use. Amazon, the seller, and Toshiba have been unhelpful in resolving the issue.

No gourmet cook book as promised and advertised
