Cuisinart TOA-26 Compact Airfryer Toaster Oven

I received the item in terrible condition. Used item. Many scratch les and dents. Door doesn’t get closed!

I love this little toaster oven and use the air fryer feature all the time. It doesn’t fit huge sweet potatoes but most fit and it air fries quicker than my smaller stand alone air fryer. Plus it takes up much less room on my small countertop. I’ve had it three months and will definitely buy another.

The bake setting is useless. I have tried approx four times and it is either undercooked or burnt. The air fry is adequate, however the tray and basket are of such poor quality that they mark very easily. I have soaked in not soapy water but the stains remain. How do I return this item? I am not satisfied at all.

I ordered this compact Cuisinart as well as the larger model (TOA-70). Comparing with the larger model, the compact one: - Doesn’t have the grill feature - Doesn’t have a built-in timer for any of the features except for toasting - Doesn’t have an interior light - Isn’t stainless steel on the sides and top; it only is on the front However, I absolutely love it and went with the compact one. Here’s why: - Despite being “compact”, it has plenty of room inside. More room than my barrel-style air fryer! - It air fries as well as my barrel air fryer, which I’ll be selling soon because I’m trying to get away from cooking with nonstick and this is all stainless steel inside. - It also toasts as well and as quickly as the toaster oven I’ve had for 10 years. Some reviews stated this takes a long time to toast but they may be comparing it with a regular toaster, not a toaster oven. I haven’t used the other features yet as I mainly needed these two. - The main reason I really like this one over the larger model is because you can almost fully pull out the rack you’re cooking on without it falling down. The larger model was annoying with that because pulling the rack about halfway out meant it would fall. You would need to remove the rack entirely in order to flip food over or to take it out when it was done. - No timer: I don’t care about that because I just set a timer on the microwave like I’d do if I were baking something in the oven (this is technically a countertop oven after all). Many reviewers are upset there’s no auto-off for anything except the toasting, but ovens don’t turn off on their own. When the timer goes off I check on the food and turn the dial to off. Not a problem at all. - No light: At first I thought I’d miss the interior light, but my barrel air fryer doesn’t have one either, I just open the door and look in. Haven’t missed it. I am really disappointed that, unlike the larger model, the compact one doesn’t have stainless steel sides and top. It makes it look cheaper than the other one. A work around: I put it in the corner of my counter so you can’t see the sides as much. Despite this being an important miss to me, I love this toaster oven/ air fryer enough to overlook that.

this is a great little air fryer combo oven. It’s not huge on your counter and has so many different options from air fry to toast and cook. Cuisinart is a brand you can’t go wrong with.
