A:AnswerNo, the Breville® BOV900 Smart Oven® Air Fryer Pro works more similarly to a conventional oven rather then a microwave and does not have a microwave function.
A:AnswerThere's no need to store the racks and accessories on top of the machine. I usually just leave mine in the appliance. However, great idea about storing the racks and accessories in a cabinet--I'm with your aunt, aesthetically more pleasing.
A:AnswerYou need the direct energy from a microwave to flash heat the oil and pop the corn in your microwave popcorn bag.
This appliance would not be good for popping corn. Corn needs direct heat, like from a skillet, air-popper, or microwave. The heating elements in this oven are fragile and non-cleanable, so popping corn in here would likely damage your oven.
A:AnswerI never had a problem with my Breville ovens glass door. This is my second one and the last older one I had, I sold to another person and that one was also in great condition after owning for 10 years.
A:AnswerAbsolutely. Just please make sure the glass is made to withstand an oven. If it’s Pyrex brand you are fine. This does come with 2 stainless steel racks as well as an air fryer basket (large), a pizza pan, bake pan and crumb tray that slides on the bottom of the oven. I just used my more delicate ceramic casserole dish and it did excellent. No problems.
A:AnswerDepending on what is on the sides, I would say you’ll be fine. I have my utensil caddy within 4” of it and it (and the utensils) are never hot.
