# Cuisinart Air Fryer Toaster Oven with Grill TOA-70NAS - Category: Air Fryers - Ranking appearance: Also considered (not ranked) - Updated: 2026-08-02 - Canonical HTML route: /products/cuisinart-toa-70nas/ - Ranking context: [Return to the full ranking](/rankings/best-air-fryers/2026-05.md) A stainless countertop oven with eight cooking functions, analog controls, and a reversible grill/griddle plate, the TOA-70NAS suits households that want one appliance to cover toast, small bakes, air-fried food, and quick grilled meals. ## Verdict Choose it when appliance consolidation and cooking range matter more than exact temperature regulation. It is an unusually flexible oven-style alternative, but dedicated air fryers remain easier to clean and more predictable for repeated crisping batches. ## Review Cuisinart gives the TOA-70NAS a broader job description than a typical basket air fryer. The 0.6-cubic-foot oven accepts toast, small bakes, broiled food, and air-fry baskets, while the reversible ceramic nonstick plate adds grilling and griddling. Physical dials make those modes easy to reach without a touchscreen, and the interior light helps with foods that need visual checks. That flexibility does not erase the compromises of the oven format. Independent testing found quick preheating and good air-frying performance, but also meaningful temperature overshoot and uneven browning when the toast rack was crowded. The cavity, rack, basket, and grill plate create more cleanup than a single drawer, and the exterior can become quite hot. It is strongest as a multi-appliance replacement rather than a precision-first air fryer. ## Why we considered it The TOA-70NAS is a credible countertop consolidator for cooks who want air frying, toast, baking, broiling, and a reversible grill plate in one familiar analog appliance. ## Why it missed the ranked list It missed the ranked ten because its broad versatility comes with less precise temperature control and less even full-rack toasting than the strongest dedicated air fryers and ovens in this category. The TOA-70NAS was considered for its rare combination of air frying, conventional toaster-oven work, and a reversible grill/griddle plate. It did not place in the ranked ten because temperature stability and evenness matter heavily in this category, and the top choices delivered more predictable crisping or more focused convenience. It remains a persuasive alternative for buyers whose first goal is consolidating countertop appliances. ## What stands out - A reversible grill/griddle plate expands the appliance beyond standard oven functions - Eight modes make it a credible toaster-oven replacement - Physical controls keep daily operation straightforward ## Tradeoffs - Analog timing and temperature settings are less exact - Crowded toast loads can brown unevenly - Oven-style cleanup is more involved than drawer cleanup ## Best for - Appliance consolidation - Mixed toast, bake, grill, and air-fry use - Fans of simple physical controls ## Not for - Precision-focused cooks - Frequent large toast batches - Anyone seeking the smallest possible air fryer ## Key product facts - **The TOA-70NAS combines eight cooking functions in a 1,800-watt countertop oven with a 0.6-cubic-foot interior.** Cuisinart's current model page lists the function set, power rating, and interior capacity for the exact TOA-70NAS. - **Its oven can air fry up to three pounds of food and includes a reversible ceramic nonstick grill/griddle plate alongside the basket, rack, and baking pan.** The current product page and owner's manual agree on the stated air-fry capacity and included cooking accessories. - **Independent testing found strong air-frying speed and useful four-slice toasting, but also temperature overshoot and less even results when the rack was filled with six slices.** RTINGS retested this model on its updated toaster-oven bench and documented both its air-frying strengths and control limitations. - **Owner feedback most often favors the appliance's versatility and everyday convenience, while recurring cautions concern exterior heat, dial precision, and cleanup around the oven cavity.** The same broad strengths and cautions recur across two current owner-feedback channels for the exact model. ## Sources - [Air Fryer Toaster Oven with Grill TOA-70NAS](https://www.cuisinart.com/air-fryer-toaster-oven-with-grill/TOA-70NAS.html) — Cuisinart; accessed 2026-08-02.
