The battle between the Cuisinart TOA-60 Air Fryer Toaster Oven and the Black and Decker 4 Slice Toaster Oven (TO1760SS) is as one-sided as it can be. While both toaster ovens are 100% analog, the Cuisinart is superior in every aspect, including design, usability, and performance.

The Cuisinart has a higher build quality shown in its sturdy and durable material as well as precise control dials. It also has some premium features that the Black+Decker doesn’t, which are two convection settings, six nichrome heating elements, an interior light, a slide-out crumb tray, and an air fryer basket on top of the standard oven rack and baking pan.

By having convection and a higher power output, the Cuisinart easily outperformed the Black+Decker in all of our performance tests, including toasting bread, baking pizza, roasting whole chickens, and air-frying fries. These outcomes solidified why we chose it as our best convection toaster oven.
