Tested Using Methodology v1.0Overall Verdict
The Breville Smart Oven Pro (BOV845BSS) and the Cosori Air Fryer Toaster Oven (CO130-AO) are both digital large convection toaster ovens. Thus, comparing them allows us to point out why the second contender is our pick for the best-to-buy toaster oven.
The two toaster ovens are equal in terms of interior features—both having an interior light, a convection system, and more than four heating elements. In addition, the Breville has a rare non-stick interior while the Cosori has a built-in rotisserie motor.
Exterior-wise, the Breville has side carrying handles while the Cosori has more air ventilation slats. Their premium build quality shows through their responsive control panel and well-insulated stainless steel casing, but the Cosori is just a bit better.
Both machines are easy to use, having well-designed cooking functions and an informative digital display. However, the extra toggle switches of the Breville failed to actually increase ease of use. The Cosori doesn’t have anything extra but it does have an automatic preheat phase that actually preheats to the exact input temperature.
In the end, the things that separates these two are their performance scores in toasting bread, baking pizza, roasting whole chicken, and baking fries. The Breville’s performance was inferior to the Cosori’s despite also having a convection system and the same power output. The key differences can be boiled down to the Breville not being able to maintain the temperature as constant and distribute the heat as evenly as the Cosori.
