Exactly what I was looking for!
I really like my new countertop oven and air-fryer. The size is actually perfect for my space, and the features are all what I need for use. It's my first time using an air fryer, and the ease of use is terrific! I've also grilled in it. I have yet to bake, but I'm excited to use the dehydrate feature as I grow herbs and want to try it out. While the over does heat up, it is not overly hot and it is quiet. I like the preheat and convection function for the air fryer, and it's easy to set. Cleanup is easy. This is a great replacement for my 30-year old countertop oven that had seen its last days!

Best Ever Oven
I am so pleased with my new KitchenAid Digital Countertop Oven with Air Fry. There is no guessing at the settings. There are 9 options from baking to dehydrating. The dials are clearly marked. Each cooking setting has a preset heating and timer setting, but you can adjust each one to your need manually. It heats up and cooks/toasts a lot faster than my former one made by a different manufacturer, and the toast is browned evenly on both sides (what a switch from my last unit). You can set the toast timer according to the number of slices and how dark you want it, then push that same knob in and you can change the timer, then push the "start" button and you are on your way to some great toast. I was struck by how well made this oven is. The rack feels thick and strong and slides in an out with ease. There is a light inside the oven so you can see the food with ease. If there is a fan, you can't hear it. It is so quiet, you wonder if it's working, but the light quells that myth. When the timer is finished, you hear a slight "ding", so it is not irritating or loud. The outside does get a little warm, so it is suggested to have the unit at least 4" away from the wall. I have mine in a corner so there is plenty of air space around it. It fits perfectly under my cabinets and on the counter. The unit comes with a broiler pan with rack and an air fryer basket, which I have yet to use. The crumb tray slides out easily for cleaning. I have used it only for toast and warming up food, so I can't comment on using it for other cooking. I am looking forward to trying the air fryer. I have noticed that the low rack setting would not give you the height you need if you wanted to bake a chicken, as there is only a 4" leeway between the rack and the upper heating elements. The door is solidly made and opens out and down, with no squeaks! After researching and looking at many units, I am so glad I made this choice.

Perfect addition to kitchen
So far I'm loving this thing. Crispy shrimp, tots, fries, the air fryer setting does a really good job. Maybe not as good as a true "air fryer" but far better than a normal oven. Really ended up with this one because its just big enough to cook a 12-inch pizza without taking up the entire kitchen counter. It makes toast well, but does take a little longer than a traditional toaster. Not a big deal to me. Overall I really like this toaster oven. I did purchase the Best Buy 2-year protection policy with it, longevity seems to be hit or miss with "all" toaster ovens, so at least I'm covered for a couple of years. Price was good and I prefer purchasing these types of things in a store where I can see the packaging and not worry about delivery drivers dropping it. If you have been thinking about getting one of these, just do it. You won't be disappointed.
