Summary
At 11.5 quarts with 8 cooking functions, this replaces multiple appliances in one footprint. Good Housekeeping found it produced the crispiest air-fried foods in the shortest time of all toaster oven-style models tested.
Dual independent baskets let you cook two foods two ways simultaneously — a genuine game-changer for family meals. Wings and fries come out perfectly crispy every time, and the baskets are dishwasher-safe.
Pros
- 11.5-qt capacity with large flat rack surface — ideal for big batches of wings or veggies
- 8 functions: toast, broil, bake, warm, air fry, grill, convection bake, convection broil
- Produced crispiest air-fried foods in shortest time among all toaster oven models tested by Good Housekeeping
- Drip/crumb tray makes cleanup straightforward
- Replaces toaster, toaster oven, and air fryer in one appliance
- Dual 4-qt baskets cook two foods independently or synced to finish together
- 8-qt total capacity handles full family meals or big party batches
- Doesn't pause when you pull a basket to check food — rare and useful feature
- Dishwasher-safe baskets that are easier to clean than most 6-qt models
- Temperature range 105°F–450°F with 6 functions: air fry, broil, roast, bake, reheat, dehydrate
Cons
- Cooks fast enough that you need to lower temperature and watch closely to avoid burning
- Oven-style design means less concentrated airflow than basket-style air fryers
- Larger footprint than basket-style air fryers
- Dual-basket operation has a slight learning curve when switching between zones
- Takes up significant counter space at 13.9" x 15.6"
- Pricier than single-basket alternatives at similar capacity
Our take
If you want to eliminate countertop clutter without sacrificing capacity, the TOA-70 is the move. It toasts, bakes, broils, and air fries — and it does all of them well, which is rare for a combo appliance.
This is the large air fryer to buy. Good Housekeeping named it best overall after testing 50+ models, CNET calls it the best for large families, and it's the most consistently recommended dual-basket option across every source we checked.

The verdict
Get the Cuisinart TOA-70 Air Fryer + Convection Toaster Oven if you want air fryer toaster oven performance. Get the Ninja Foodi DualZone Air Fryer (8-qt, DZ201) if you value overall more. Both are excellent choices in large capacity air fryers.
