This Oster countertop oven features a built-in air fryer so you can make everything from healthier versions of fries and chicken nuggets to cakes and pizzas, using just one appliance. Air fry using 99.5% less oil compared to a 3.7L deep fryer. The mesh basket makes the fryer easy to use and clean, while the fryer fan ensures perfectly crispy results. The convection oven offers fast, even, efficient heating, while the roomy interior fits up to 4 slices of bread for toasting. Independent dial controls let you set temperature, cook function, and the 60-minute timer.
Q: How many quarts interior capacity? I'm surprised not even the Specifications mention it!
A: don't be surprised...the cheaper the product, the less information you see on a website about it. Most of time its to conceal a missing feature that it lacks and most of the competition has. I believe the quart size is in the low 20s. It is one of the biggest consumer airf fryers you can buy and the biggest I've owned. A whole chicken would be no problem.
Q: What are the exterior measurements?
A: That's a great question! The dimension fror this Oster Countertop Oven with Air Fryer is 17" H x 17.5" W x 18.5" L.
Q: Can you bake cakes and cookies
A: I've baked biscuits. quiche, apple pie fritters, and cupcakes in mine. I've found I do have to cook a little longer at little lower temps to prevent the bottoms from burning.
A: I have never heard the fan turn on in baking. Or toasting for that matter
Q: What are the interior measurements? Will it fit a 12” pizza?
A: Absolutely. I use it to cook 12" frozen pizzas all the time! I leave the included baking sheet in the lower position and the rack with the pizza in the upper position. This keeps the bottom of the oven clean, but it takes a little longer to cook. However, because the Oster oven heats up so quickly, the total time from start to finish is actually faster than cooking the same kind of pizza in my built-on oven. Another plus using this thing to cook frozen pizza is you turn it on by setting the timer, and when it turns off it also cools quickly, so I have yet to burn a pizza! Finally, also because if the "automatic" timer, you can't forget to turn the oven off.
Q: The timer knob seems hard to reverse from 20, is this normal?
A: there are many design flaws with this air fryer. The knobs are placed directly over the open oven door. Steam from the oven gets on the knobs and makes them slippery. The knobs are smooth and should have been made with something with more of a grip. I've had this oven for over a year and learned to deal with this annoyance because it cooks great.
A: Yes it is
Q: does this one fill the house up with smoke?
A: No it does not smoke at all, But before you use it the first time you will want to run it at about 400 degrees for 5 minutes, thats just to burn of any oil thats in the metal. Overall i really like this oven it works very well
