Is the Breville Smart Oven Air Fryer Pro BOV900 worth it?
Yes — if you want a second oven more than an air fryer.
It's really a compact oven: nine slices of toast, a 13-inch pizza or a 14lb turkey, 13 presets including slow cook, proof and dehydrate, and precise temperature control. As an air fryer it's slower than a basket model, needs a few minutes to preheat and crisps less, and the mesh tray and inside are hard to keep clean. It's big, pricey, and the outside gets hot.

How we reached this verdict
Digital Trends calls it more oven than toaster, big enough for a turkey and pizza, with well laid-out controls and powerful convection, though loud on air fry and dehydrate. TechGearLab's air fryer test found it versatile enough to replace a conventional oven but slower to cook, with a long preheat, a hot exterior, hard cleaning and less crisping than basket fryers. RTINGS also rates it a strong toaster oven. No shop we read has verified owner reviews of it yet.
We compared independent expert reviews with the manufacturer's specifications, then checked it's sold at a major retailer where you live. We don't test products ourselves.
