Dash Chef Series 7 in 1 Convection Air Fry Oven - Graphite

I've had this little oven for 3 1/2 years and it still works the same. I use this more than the regular oven. The bake function works exactly the same as the regular oven. My main uses are the bake, air fry and toast which all work great. The broiler function has never worked though and I've never tried the rotisserie function. I would buy this again!

First review issues: this is a small appliance, yes the knobs get hot but there are clear warnings in the manual about supervision and there is a warning symbol on top of stove. If you set the knobs where you need them the only one you may touch is the timer. I have done this several times and was not scorched or burned. This not a microwave or a digital oven, which by the way does get hot. The knob notches could have been better colored, but white out is my solution. The plastic knobs are not the same as the plastic toys your kids/grandkids got for Christmas. They are not going to melt. Now for the functions Toasting: bagels worked very well, even the one I put in frozen! Broiler: sorry but outside grill is best for meats, however, it beats the stove grill . Baking: the pretzel coated chicken breasts were perfect. I bought a 9X9 pan and plan on trying that today for cake. Rotisserie: I am single so a large chicken isn't in the future of this stove but Cornish hen is. Air fry: the manual says you can layer the crumb sheet or baking pan with tin foil to help with the things that drip. Cooking spray on the oven rack well help with sticky cheese that drips through basket. Warm up: I set the timer on 20 minutes for my other chicken breast and did stove top food during that time. Everything was perfect. Clean up: vinegar gets the worst off, don't wait to do it then pout when it gets to hard to clean. It takes 2 minutes after each use to wipe the inside clean. Think how hard it is to clean your kitchen oven when you don't clean after each use. stinky over cleaner! Only issue is that when I spoke a representative at the help Tel. # the light bulbs are not replaceable. I do wish I could turn the light off. I hope this answers all questions and concerns

I bought this oven as a gift for my wife but I think I am one of those fellas who might have unwittingly bought it for myself! This little oven is just the way I like it...simple. For the old-fashioned who like dials as opposed to buttons and LEDs, this oven is for you. Just point the dial to what you want it to do and set the timer! That's it! The first thing I air fried was french fries. I cut up a tater and and air fried the fries at 450 degrees for about 18 minutes. The top of the fries looked great BUT the bottom of the fries were cooked but not browned. Easy fix though. My kids ate all of the first batch so I had to do a second one. This time I set it for 18 to 20 minutes but turned them over after 9 to 10 minutes. Turned out perfect! My kids got to that batch too so I made another for myself. Next mission. I love egg rolls so I thawed out a couple of chicken egg rolls and set the oven to 425 degrees and set them for about 15 minutes. They were so crispy and good! If you hit them with a little bit of cooking spray before you put em in, they are even better! Again, it is advised to turn them every now and then for even crisping. I have learned that thawing food before air frying really helps. It increasing the crispness and reducing the cooking time. We have used the toaster, broiler and have baked food in it and it works like a champ! (pardon the cliche). I have heard that the rotisserie works pretty good too. We have not tried it yet but I will let you know how that goes. I am giving this oven four stars ONLY because I have to turn food in the basket when using the air fryer. Otherwise, the cost, simplicity of use and quality of the food cooked makes this oven a good buy. It's simple design makes it easy to clean as well. To sum it all up folks, I am glad I bought this one!

So, I am vegan and the way the product is advertised is very heavily meat friendly based. I was a bit turned off, but was looking for an air fryer that was small, easy to use, but also fit enough food in there. Saw this on deal of the day section and it was at a decent price and had great reviews, so I took the risk. Came super super fast! Delivered the next day, and no damage to packaging, plus it was well packaged! I opened it up, cleared off some space and immediately started cooking. I decided to make a vegan avocado and tomato with ginger egg roll and put in some vegetable dumplings! For how small it looked, it fits plenty and well enough for a family of 4! I love how easy it was to use the knobs, very clear instructions, and cooked incredibly fast and perfect! I love how the light stays on, so it’s easy to watch when you need to flip them over. I highly recommend using an oven mitt instead of tray grabber that comes with it, but that’s not a bid deal to me, I’d rather use the mitt. Over all I cannot wait to cook again in this! It’s perfect for one person to cook an entire meal in, definitely recommend. If you’re hesitant like I was, take the risk you won’t regret it!

I kept my eye on this product and caught it for $89. Well worth the cost. Does a little bit of everything. Comes with what you need. I haven't had an issue with cleaning. Practice with the rotisserie drum before you use it. Same with the spit. So much easier than heating up the house in the summer. It does get warm as it is vented on the sides. But I have it sitting on a wooden shelf unit and it does not get so warm that I worry. Did place it on a silicone sheet just to be safe. Controls are well marked. Temperature seems true. Have not tested it against a thermometer. Be aware that the rotisserie does not work for the air fryer, so if you are looking for that feature, look elsewhere. Rotisserie works nicely-may just take a bit longer. Do not use too wet of items in the rotisserie drum or you will have a mess. I keep the bake pan in the bottom position as a drip tray. Does not seem to interfere with efficiency. Well worth the purchase, but watch the price. You can catch it on the cheap side.

So much better than your ordinary toaster oven. Needed to fit in a limited space in my outdoor kitchen here in Key West, FL. Considered lots of units and decided this one was the best value, besides being the largest and most versatile that would fit the limited space. Cooks FAST using it mostly on Convection Oven setting which means the fan is running circulating the air. Watch your food at first as this cooks much faster than any toaster oven I have had. The only complaint I have is that the knobs have no marking on the front, so you cannot tell where anything is set. The knobs have notches on the side which you have to feel. I suppose if it was sitting on a kitchen counter and you could look down on it or look at it from different angles. Here it is set at eye height so gotta check the knobs physically for the settings. Wish the notch on the side would have been extended to the front surface of the knob. Yes, it really is easy to clean compared to the several toaster ovens that have previously lived in this spot. The crumb/drip tray on the bottom slides out easy for cleaning.

I love this appliance! It works well, easy to understand. Mine runs a bit on the hotter side (which is better than running too cool, in my opinion), so I just threw in an oven thermometer for more accurate cooking. However most of the things I use it for just require periodic checking to see when it's toasted to your liking. The air frying function is great - I like how you can actually see your food cooking, as opposed to other air fryer models that are just a drawer with a handle. As a regular toaster, it works great as well - I frequently toast just one or two slices of bread and it gets browned so evenly. My only complaint is that the air fryer basket is pretty awkward to put in and take out, especially when it's super hot. The feet of the basket get caught on the grill thing it's supposed to rest on, and getting in there with an oven mitt is a bit awkward. Other than that, I can't complain! I purchased one of those oven pusher-puller things, and that helped a ton with getting around this. I'm just happy that I have quality air fryer and toaster oven in one! Saves space and works well.

So a year in, we still use this several times per week. The taste is great, the heat, cooking, oven, quietness are all great! The problem is the dials. So I am not sure if it is a cheap thermostat problem or if the dials just don’t adjust correctly, but getting the temp right is a big issue. For the air fryer and for oven heating, the temps aren’t right and don’t adjust well. Burning is a big problem. Our solution has been to find two low ish temps for both air fryer and oven settings that seem to work reasonably well and then never, ever, ever adjust the temps. We just adjust cook times. I would recommend skipping this product and spending more for unit where the thermostat is accurate and the temps are digitally read out, not just a dial. The timing dial also sucks because you can’t just set it for 2 minutes. It’s turn to 20 and then turn back to the lowest notch and then the machine might run for 1 minute or 6. Again, I would recommend spending more for the product where you can set a digital readout to exactly 2 minutes. Sorry, to the manufacturer. I don’t hate it. I still use it. I would not recommend it.

It has shorten my meal prep time by about one third to one half what it was before.

works great

Almost nothing to complain about. What would make it a bit more user-friendly, would be markers on each dial. As the dials are black, it's difficult to line up with the functions. A white line on the indentations would help. Other than that, hit the "buy now" button and happy days are coming your way!

Easy to use and it makes cooking fun

This Dash airfry oven is now in use every day in our house!! It makes perfect, crispy fries and crunchy, coated chicken. I'm using it for all my cooking instead of our big convection oven. It's also very fast and doesn't need preheating. And airfry is not even the only thing it does!! It really is the best ever and so far 2 of my friends ordered it too.
