This article was updated in November 2022 to ensure all picks are in stock and reflect accurate pricing. Our picks were updated to reflect new testing results. Some additions to our list include the Breville Joule Oven Air Fryer Pro and the Café Couture Oven with Air Fry.


Air fryer toaster ovens offer all the versatility of a toaster oven or countertop oven with the additional benefit of air frying. Some may argue that air frying is just like cooking with convection, but its technology typically allows food to cook quicker and get crispier thanks to a powerful heating element and a large, quick-moving fan. Compared to stand-alone air fryers, air fryer toaster ovens can be used for more cooking tasks and differ in design, making them more versatile.

In the Good Housekeeping Institute Kitchen Appliances and Innovation Lab, we've tested more than 20 different air fryer toaster ovens in addition to more than 40 standalone air fryers and 40 standalone toaster ovens. When we test the air frying function on appliances and air fryers, we cook 1 pound of chicken wings, 1 pound of frozen fries and 1 pound of fresh fries in each machine to see how quickly and evenly each crisps up. When we test air fryer toaster ovens we also test each of the toaster oven features by toasting bread, baking a cake on both the bake and convection bake settings, broiling steak and an open-faced sandwich on the broiling setting and more. We also assess several ease-of-use features like the clarity of the control panel and how easy each appliance is to clean. Here are the best air fryer toaster ovens you buy, according to our testing.

      How we test air fryer toaster ovens

      In the Good Housekeeping Institute Kitchen Appliances and Innovation Lab, we tested 20 different air fryer toaster ovens for their ability to air fry, bake, broil and, of course, toast. That means we fried more than 20 pounds of wings and frozen fries to see how quickly and evenly they crisped up.

      When we test wings, we simply sprinkle them with salt and place them on the rack. We don't add any oil, which would help them brown nicer and stick less. We assess how quickly they cook, how evenly and how dried out they become/how juicy they are. We also use this test to help us evaluate if the oven is prone to smoking and how easy it is to clean afterwards.

      One of our most important and telling toaster oven tests is simply making toast. We fill the rack with bread three times and toast them on three different settings. We evaluate how evenly the oven toasts, how consistently it toasts and how much the low, medium and high settings differ from one another. After all, an air fryer toaster oven should be able to toast well, since it's one of the most commonly used features.

      We also test the air fryer toaster ovens' baking ability by making frozen pizza (to see how evenly the cheese melts) and boxed cake mix. We score the results on cooking time and evenness.

      We also test the broiling function with open-faced sandwiches and steak since an air fryer toaster oven should be able to melt cheese nicely and broil steak quickly.

      How to find the best air fryer toaster for you

      ✔️ Size: Most toaster ovens can fit a whole, 4-pound chicken, but if you're tight on space, you might not need the extra height. If you mostly plan on using your toaster oven for bread, reheating leftovers or one to two-person meals, a compact model is sufficient. If you're looking to cook in it or use it as a second oven, consider a larger one; some are big enough to fit a whole turkey.

      ✔️ Dials: Toaster ovens can have digital or mechanical controls. We recommend digital for more precise control when it comes to setting the temperature and timer. If you don't mind guessing or keeping an additional timer close by, mechanical dials will save you money.

      ✔️ Racks and accessories: At a minimum, all toaster ovens should come with at least one rack and one baking/broiling pan. Air fryer toaster ovens usually include an additional basket or rack for air frying. The baskets usually sit on the baking/broiling pan and allow safe cooking at high temperatures as well as easy maneuverability and cleanup. Some air fryer toaster ovens offer the option to purchase more air fryer racks (that can also be used for dehydrating in most cases) to use at the same time, and some include a rotisserie attachment.

      Is an air fryer toaster oven the same as a convection oven?

      Air frying and convection cooking both work similarly in the sense that they both use a fan to circulate hot air. Air fryers, however, typically have heating elements that are more concentrated and located on the top, while most convection ovens work with the same heaters already built into an oven or toaster oven. These are usually located on the top and bottom of the oven. Air fryers also typically have a larger fan that works quicker and is positioned on top of the heating elements versus a convection oven with a smaller fan located in the back or side of the oven. This technology isn't regulated, so it's hard to define the exact differences between air fryer toaster ovens and convection ovens because every air fryer toaster oven is different even though they mimic the same principles. Ultimately, the best air fryer toaster ovens heat up quickly and make crispier food in less time than convection ovens.

      Can you put foil in a Hamilton Beach air fryer?

      Lining the bottom of the cooking basket with foil or parchment paper will block the airflow necessary for air frying and result in undercooked or unevenly cooked food. It's best to cook directly on the bottom of the nonstick basket whenever possible.
