TOSHIBA Air Fryer Combo 8-in-1 Countertop Microwave Oven, Convection, Broil, Odor removal, Mute Function, 12.4" Position Memory Turntable with 1.0 Cu.ft, Black stainless steel, ML2-EC10SA(BS)

This takes some time to get used to. As a microwave it heats foods etc very fast.Lots of features, I haven’t used all of them yet. Air fryer takes a bit to heat up. The directions aren’t very clear so I googled instructions and found some helpful tips. One piece of advice I did read in reviews, when you bake, broil, air fry, you need to let it cool before you use the microwave but really comes in handy if you want to melt cheese with just the leftover heat.It is big, takes up some room but I was able to get rid of some other appliances that this all in one replaced.I also got a thick wooden heat resistant board for the top so I can still store a few things on top of it. And I had to get a heat blocker for my coffee maker because it sits pretty close to one of the heat vents.Very worth the price. I barely use my regular oven any more and even toasted an English muffin under the broiler. It took a bit but it actually came out better than using a toaster.The rack that comes with it is perfect, flips for high and low.Still getting used to it but very happy with it

this 8-in-1 microwave is amazing. So far I've used the defrost, microwave, combi, and air fry function. I think the key with this microwave is to actually read and use the instruction manual if you want it to work well and save the trial and error time (and save your food in the process). In short, all the functions work amazing, defrost is by far the winner of it all for me. It defrosted smoked salmon without cooking it. Forever a fan just for that.Here are my notes:1. Microwave - I used the "beverage" function to heat up some coffee. It's the Auto 1 I think (check the manual!) it heated it up nice and hot, it didn't get cold quick, and I was very pleased. I really only use the microwave for reheating (not cooking), so this was perfect. 5 stars on this front.2. Combi - this was a combo grill/micro function for some hot dogs. I couldn't find a good guide in the rush of my son requesting hot dogs like he hadn't eaten anything in the past 6 years of his life, but I did a combi preset, had to do it twice, and while they came out good, almost like on the stove top, I think they could have been better--they lacked a little cooking in the center. I'll have to do some homework on the best hot dog function to use before my next request.3. Airfry - I cut up some red potatoes (small if you ask me), dressed them with EVOO, salt, paprika and thyme and used the air fryer at 350 F for 30 mins. I MUST DISCLOSE that I have NEVER used an airfryer. Never. I saw it as a frivolous appliance that takes up too much space. Enter this micro. This is why I got the micro in the first place. Back to the potatoes, they could have been cooked a little more for my liking, perhaps a higher temp, but my husband thought they were amazing. Again, I have never air fryed, so probably some novice user error on my end. 5 stars for air frying!4. Defrost. This is where this microwave SHINES like none other. I defrosted smoked salmon. Have you ever done that before????? the edges are ALWAYS *cooked* and I can't stand that. It defrosted perfectly. Not cooked. Not at all. DEFROSTED as if I'd left it out on the counter to defrost. My God. Chicken? Defrosted like a CHARM. Not cooked! not hot! DEFROSTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would give this 10,000 stars just for defrosting because I ALWAYS forget to take food out to defrost.

REVISED: QUIT TURNING, of course, right after the warranty expired. It's never been great about turning properly, but was fine, until it started groaning, like metal scraping on metal, & died. We've always taken good care of it. I can't express how sick we are of cheap junk. We had each of the past two microwaves for more than 10 years, each.The amount of steam the microwave function produces...apparently on purpose...is making me INSANER!! I'm trying to cook the food, not give it, the interior of the microwave, & the countertop a bath! It drips all over the place when you open the door. SERIOUSLY, it's like it's pulling every ounce of moisture it can get from the air. Not that I don't clean my microwave regularly, but it's way too much to let it air dry, so I have to wipe everything down...every time I use it...including removing the tray & go-around thingy...or the moisture would just sit in there fermenting in extremely unsanitary puddles.The directions are, in part, in very broken English. The timer has been the hardest to figure out...that, & the combo cooking. I guess I'll be investing in some oven safe plastic cookware, because metal {necessary for using the convection function} sparks when the microwave is in use during combo cooking...if I can figure out the directions to get past C1 & on to C2...The broiler appears to be combo, only. I'm unsure what cookware will work, as even oven safe plastic may melt. Although, it's a bit frustrating that the broiler element never seems to heat up enough to quickly broil. I've yet to see it glowing red like a conventional broiler, so it seemingly takes forever. Plus, microwaving can ruin some foods, especially fish & chicken. Bread can get very tough, very quickly. I really don't understand the wisdom in not making it strictly broiling.I'm really looking forward to learning to dehydrate peppers, etc.Some things bake too fast, others take FOREVER! Especially, when air frying. It may be partly my fault for not grasping times for the smaller quantity this oven can handle, vs a full size oven. Sometimes preheat takes forever, others, it doesn't seem to need it or it's far quicker than a conventional oven. Preheating can be MASSIVELY annoying! As soon as you open the door to put the food in, it loses all the heat, starting the preheating process all over again, necessitating opening the door, again, to be able to set the timer. Arrgghh!Sometimes, air fry seems a better choice over baking because it circulates better.Regardless, there's a VERY steep learning curve, made that much worse by the horrendous instructions.I recommend lots of YouTube videos to avoid wasting food.All of the other brands seem prone to shorts & literal fires, so I'm constantly on guard with this one, although it's not mentioned in any of the reviews. It's not fair to judge this one based on those, but I am a little hesitant to leave it dehydrating overnight, unsupervised. It does get VERY hot, so I recommend a silicone mat underneath to protect countertops.To me, heated food always tastes better than microwaved. It's large enough for most casseroles, etc, for a family of four. I like that I don't have to heat up my expensive propane oven. I don't pay for electricity, so it may not be as savvy an investment for others, since it seems to need so much extra time for some things. Again, that may be misconception on my part.Overall, if you don't mind needing a PhD in combo/convection/air fryer/baking/broiler ovens...or your hair in piles on the floor trying to understand these instructions...or purchasing some extra cookware, it's a good investment.SIDE NOTE: This is NOT 1000 watts, as claimed. If you live in an RV, like I do, check the usage for all cooking modes, carefully, to make sure you're not overloading your circuits, potentially causing a fire. Keep in mind, other things, like the refrigerator, are always using some of the total available. This uses 1800, more than 1/2 the 3000 total available in a 30 amp RV {2000 to 2500 max, to be on the safe side}.
