NUWAVE Bravo XL Air Fryer Convection Toaster Oven Countertop, 112-in-1 Smart Grill Combo with Original Flavors & Marks, Adjustable Heating Zones for Pizza, Roast, Bake, 50-500°F, Stainless Steel, 30QT

So I bought this oven during the winter when the gas company decided to hike prices while raking in record profits. They do it every year, but this year, it was especially bad. After a $300 gas bill without even turning the heat on, I decided to buy this oven to replace my full-size gas oven (yay, solar panels). After buying this, my gas bill was more than cut in half, and now that prices have come back down, it's only $20 / month. This oven literally paid for itself.This was hands-down the best purchase of 2023 so far. Are the controls non-intuitive? Absolutely. I mess up and don't actually start the preheating or don't actually start the timer at least once a week despite having it for a few months now.Is it difficult to clean? Ehhh. I tried baking a cake I normally do in two layers in 3 smaller layers, and the cake pans overflowed all over the heating elements and bottom tray. It turned into birthday pudding. But the baked-on bits of char came right off once the oven had cooled down, and now there's not even the lingering smell of failure.Does it cook food so evenly and efficiently that you'll wonder how you ever cooked before you had it? YOU BET. Having such a small cavity means you use less energy overall compared to a much more voluminous gas oven. When you open the door to put food in, there's always a temperature drop, but a smaller oven reaches cooking temperature again more quickly because there is less air to heat up inside of it.In fact, when baking muffins and cakes, I've actually had to knock about 25F off the cooking temperature (thanks to the fan) and also turn off the top heating element to prevent premature caramelization and burning. OH, did I mention you can control the heating elements independently on a scale from 0 - 100%!?The only downside is that BECAUSE it's a smaller oven, I've had to either buy new pans or accept the fact that I can't use certain cooking methods. Most 12-cup muffin pans won't fit. It's got a maximum clearance of about 14 inches (~35.56 cm) from side to side and a depth (front to back) of about 10 inches (~25.4 cm). The muffin pans with the curved sides won't fit. You need a straight, rectangular one (which you can find right here on Amazon!) I can actually fit my cast iron skillet in there turned diagonally, though just barely, and there isn't enough vertical clearance for a Dutch oven of any size.The bottom line: this oven is quality, and you will not regret purchasing it. Whether you're baking, toasting, roasting, broiling, or just reheating food, everything comes out perfectly.

Purchased as a replacement and am happy with unit. Have used the air fry function twice now and the toast function and am impressed with how food turned out. The oven is well made and comes with a nice mesh stainless fry tray. The controls are sleek and easy to read. The selector knob is large and easy to use to select you cooking mode. Plenty of cooking options as well. Comes with a nice cookbook and easy to follow documentation. The unit looks great and sits nicely in the corner of my countertop. I will definitely use this unit more than my home oven. Consumes way less power, heats fast and doesn’t heat up the whole kitchen either. Very happy so far with this oven.

I wish it was BIGGER. Bigger as in being able to do a Whole Turkey. But I can settle with a Whole Chicken.I've yet to cook/bake many things in it yet. But I've made Muffins, made Rolls. I want to bake a loaf of Yeast Bread, but unfortunately there isn't enough room inside to accommodate for the height of the extra rise of the bread while it's baking.I have used this unit as a Proofer to help with the first rise of my yeast rolls and used it again for the second rise. And it worked perfect.I've used the Air Fryer function and it works awesome so far.I've used the Toasting Function and works great too.I still yet need to use the other functions.It can be a pain to figure out some of the functions, how to set them, which buttons to press etc. So a little learning curve, but once it's figured out, it should work flawlessly to achieve what you need it to do.I'd recommend it for a Single family or even a Collage Student that don't have much room in their Dorm, giving them the ability cook many things in a confined space, Tray is easy to pull out and clean and slide back in., Can fix toast, Can bake eggs, Can grill hamburgers and steaks, has a Probe to cook whole chickens or other things that require a certain temperature internal, Can even make yogurt.

It takes some reading and some getting used to but once you start cooking you will be pleased. The good news is, it has multiple functions. The bad news is, it has so many functions it will make your head spin just trying to learn how to use it. The best thing to do is start with one function, get the hang of it, and then try another. Otherwise, you will be so overwhelmed you won't remember how to turn it on. It comes with a starter cookbook which is a great way to learn how to use it. It also comes with a quick guide and a more comprehensive booklet for those who want to know every detail. It truly is easy to clean. I was amazed at how easy it is to clean the griddle. The griddle makes amazing grilled sandwiches, by the way. And French fries cooked in the air fryer are magnificent! One of the reasons I chose this oven is because the oven door opens down, instead of up, like some do. I don't have to worry about the door hitting my cabinets above when it is opened. Overall, a great oven and the best alternative to using a standard oven.

I love this! So many different settings! So easy to clean! I can do so much with it from reheating fries to a perfect crisp ( unlike microwave that turns them soggy and stale) to cooking full side dishes for Thanksgiving! You can even do multiple things at the same time

The media could not be loaded. I bought it this Black Friday and it works perfectly!We used it for French fries, chicken, fish , bread, and cake. Now I’m using it to make a dry aging ribeye steaks for Xmas dinner!The temperature is about right. Now we can have so crispy fries and chickens.Bottom pulled out tray is easy to clean.Size is a bit wider than I expected but still ok.The downside is that it came with coated bake trays, not aluminum trays. I don’t like coated trays because they are easy to get scratches and that is not good for your health.
