Our take
If you cook seriously and want one appliance to do everything — roast, bake, air fry, dehydrate, proof — the Breville Pro is worth every penny. It's the benchmark everything else gets compared to.
The Cuisinart TOA-70 is the sweet spot — it outperforms pricier models in daily use, comes loaded with accessories, and doesn't require a $400+ investment to get genuinely great results.
