The Best Air Fryer

When we first tested air fryers in 2017, most models were pod-shaped appliances that looked more at home in a sci-fi movie than on a kitchen counter. They used the same technology as convection baking under the guise of a trendy new term: “air frying.” Since then, to stay on trend, some manufacturers have started calling their convection toaster ovens and electric ranges “air fryer ovens.” The Cuisinart Chef’s Convection Toaster Oven TOB-260N1 predates the air fryer craze (so you won’t see that buzzword on the box), but we think it yields better results than any pod-shaped air fryer we’ve tested.

The Cuisinart strikes the best balance of value, size, and versatility, but depending on your needs or space limitations you may still want a pod-shaped air fryer. Even though we don’t officially recommend one, we can tell you which one we liked best. If you’re not sure whether you want a convection toaster oven or an air fryer, we’ve written a helpful checklist so you can better understand the trade-offs for each appliance. We also have general advice on how to adjust air fryer recipes for your convection toaster oven.
