TOSHIBA Inverter Countertop Microwave Oven Air Fryer Combo

Toshiba Inverter Microwave
I had bought a Toshiba laptop many years ago, but this is my first time purchase Toshiba Inverter 6-1 microwave.This microwave came with many functions, such as air fryer, boiler, baking, defrost, regular microwave,etc. This type of microwave is new for me. I have used their regular microwave, baking and air fryer function. So far the result came out pretty good.This microwave is good for small portion of cooking goods or meal. It is very convenient because I don’t really need to pay too much attention to it and it does it own job. It was first a little confused how to use this microwave, but the manual is very clear and understandable.For example, when I do air fryer, some of the functions, such as chicken wing or French fries is already preset and I don’t need to put temperature or timing to cook certain items. You have to refer it back to manual.I think this microwave is very convenient for me to prepare my meals. I don’t have to keep track of fire and grease when cooking. It’s very easy to prepare frozen meals. Also, I think is very easy to clean and have not make a mess when prepare meals. So far it’s working great for me. I am still testing out out other functions in this microwave.

For those who like air fryers and defrosting
I purchased this microwave in late November 2022, and am maintaining my original, 3-star review below. This update is from April of 2023. I do not recommend this microwave at all. I have lower usage than average, since I am alone, and air fryer and convection functions I used up till last week now no longer work. For example, I had used the preset air fryer setting for chicken legs, and they were crisp and well-cooked in the past, yet trying the exact same function this week left me with chicken that was raw inside. I successfully cooked meats with convection, much as timing was ‘hit or miss,’ and the same meat I managed to cook a week ago came out raw inside. My reporting the problem to the vendor led to my being told to be sure food was defrosted and that I used proper cooking times. My last microwave was working well after 17 years – this one failed in a matter of months!I wish I could have replaced the microwave, with grill and roast functions, that I already had, but it was 17 years old, and I feared it might ‘die,’ so I got this model with a special Cyber deal. I just ruined a steak in it!With my other microwave, I could choose ‘grill’ or ‘roast,’ press a number for the type of meat, put in the weight, choose ‘rare,’ and have the cooking time automatically calculated. This is totally hit and miss. Instructions, and the cookbook, do not list times for broiling or cooking, and the presets are only for air frying and defrosting. Even the air frying presets listed are very limited. I attempted to prepare meat using an air fryer recipe, and it did not work. (I gather that one use ‘convection,’ enter a temperature and time, and hope for the best.) The ‘combi’ mode was supposed to give me tender meat, but there is no indication of cooking time for whatever type of meal one is preparing. Pressing ‘broil’ leads to presets – but the instructions do not say what these presets mean. All times have to be entered manually. The only function I could have used, entering the weight, was defrost – not cooking!I’ve been using Toshiba products since the 1970s, and thought of them as quality. The inadequate instructions, need to enter cooking times manually (without a clue as to how long it takes), presets that only seem to be for defrosting, and only automatic ‘microwave’ choices (such as beverage or potato), makes me wonder just how I’m going to prepare meat dishes – and the description on the Amazon page had given me the impression that the ‘combi’ cooking and ‘inverter’ would make the meats better than ever.I nearly gave it a ‘2’ rating, but allowed three stars because, with the Prime Deal discount, one could not beat the price.

J’ai essayer les différentes fonctions et a présent plus que s’attifait un seul bémol écrivez pas au vendeur car lui la vente faite il se fout de vous

I bought this item to save some counter space as it was advertised it can do so many things.First the microwave seems underpowered and is quite small, but the unit is very deep. The air fryer and or broil took forever to heat up, and nothing was really crispy. There is also a powerful fan so your kitchen will definitely smell of your cooking, so locate it close to your stove hood fan. I have the convection and combi features left to try.Also it is very confusing to use. What used to be turn a dial for time and press start on my previous microwave now takes several more steps before I can press start.I tried the combi…it works better than the microwave and air fryer and broil features, but not a lot better. Convection oven, come on, a fan and a good toaster would do a better job than most of the features on this unit.10 to 12 minutes to cook 3 slices of bacon, 3 to 4 minutes to cook a single smokie.Do not buy this. Specs are misleading.

This item is hard to use, doesn’t allow you to program heat for any of the function. I tried to cook fresh veggies and after one and a half hrs, using convection they were still hard and cold. The only function that does work is the microwave, Warranty isn’t available to me and I missed the return window as I bought it for my trailer and it doesn’t get used muchDON;T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS
