Breville Smart Oven Compact BOV670

4.6

2 sourcesall derived$200as of Aug 1

The Breville Smart Oven Compact BOV670 is the best toaster oven under $200, packing Breville's Element iQ even-heat system and 8 one-touch presets into a compact footprint. America's Test Kitchen has long made the Breville Smart Oven family its top pick, and the compact version brings that even baking and toasting to a smaller cavity. It is the priciest option here and there is no true air-fry mode, but for everyday toast, bake, and roast it is the most polished.

Strengths

— Element iQ sensors steer heat across 5 quartz elements for even baking — Breville's signature even-cook system
— 8 preset functions (Toast, Bagel, Bake, Broil, Pizza, Roast, Cookies, Reheat) on a clear dial-and-display interface
— Compact 0.5 cu ft interior still fits a 12-inch pizza or 4-slice toast and a roast chicken

Watch-outs

— At ~$200 it's the priciest pick in this under-$200 lineup
— No dedicated air-fry basket mode like the Cuisinart and Ninja picks
— Smaller cavity than the Toshiba 6-slice for big-batch cooking

Ranked #5 in Best Toaster Ovens Under $200

Cuisinart TOA-60 Air Fryer Toaster Oven

3.6

3 sources2 derived$231.37as of Aug 1

The Cuisinart TOA-60 is the best value air-fryer toaster oven: a ~$130, 1800W, 7-function unit that toasts six slices evenly and roasts a 4-lb chicken. RTINGS rates it good for toasting. Its air-fry crisp lands closer to a convection oven than a true air fryer, and the analog dials run hot. As a one-box toaster oven with occasional air frying on a budget, it is a strong pick.

Strengths

— Adds a true air-fry basket plus 7 functions in one ~$130 countertop unit
— Makes evenly browned six-slice toast — RTINGS rates it good for toasting
— 1800W with a roomy 0.6 cu ft cavity — fits a 12-inch pizza or 4-lb chicken

Watch-outs

— Air-fry results are merely okay — close to convection-oven crisp, not true air-fryer crisp
— Analog dials lack precise temperature control and run hot
— TechGearLab measured the worst temperature accuracy in its test group

How they stack up

Breville Smart Oven Compact BOV670

The most polished and most expensive pick. The Cuisinart TOA-60 and Ninja Foodi SP101 add a true air-fry basket for less money but cook less evenly; the Toshiba AC25CEW holds more food for far less; the Hamilton Beach 31156 is a simpler toast-first machine.

Cuisinart TOA-60 Air Fryer Toaster Oven

The value air-fryer pick: cheaper than the Breville Smart Oven Compact BOV670 and adds a real air-fry basket, but cooks less evenly and runs hotter. Crisps about as well as the Ninja Foodi SP101 but with simpler analog controls; bigger cavity than the Hamilton Beach 31156.
