Breville Smart Oven Compact BOV670

4.6

$169.95as of Jun 7

The Breville Smart Oven Compact BOV670 is the best toaster oven under $200, bringing 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 delivers that even baking and toasting in a smaller cavity. It's the priciest pick here and lacks a true air-fry mode, but for everyday toast, bake, and roast it's 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 #3 in Best Toaster Ovens Under $200

Ninja Foodi SP101 Digital Air Fry Oven

4.3

$249.99as of Jun 7

The Ninja Foodi SP101 is the best space-saving pick: an 8-in-1 digital air-fry oven that flips up vertically to reclaim counter space. Reviewed.com found it toasts very evenly and heats up fast, and it fits 9 slices of toast or a 13-inch pizza. Its air-fry mode can crisp unevenly versus a dedicated air fryer, and it can't hold tall items, but for small kitchens that want air fry plus toast, the flip-away design is uniquely practical.

Strengths

— Flip-away design folds vertically to free up counter space when not in use
— Toasts very evenly and heats up fast — Reviewed.com praised even toasting
— 8-in-1: Air Fry, Air Roast, Air Broil, Bake, Bagel, Toast, Dehydrate, Keep Warm

Watch-outs

— Air-fry results can come out uneven versus a dedicated air fryer
— No setting for extremely light toast
— Can't hold tall items like a whole chicken

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.

Ninja Foodi SP101 Digital Air Fry Oven

The space-saver: its flip-away body reclaims counter space no other pick here offers. Crisps about as well as the Cuisinart TOA-60 with better digital controls; less even-baking than the Breville Smart Oven Compact BOV670; holds more toast than the Hamilton Beach 31156 but can't take tall items like the Toshiba AC25CEW's rotisserie chicken.
