Toshiba 1.0 Cu.ft Multifunctional Microwave

this 8-in-1 microwave is amazing. So far I've used the defrost, microwave, combi, and air fry function. I think the key with this microwave is to actually read and use the instruction manual if you want it to work well and save the trial and error time (and save your food in the process). In short, all the functions work amazing, defrost is by far the winner of it all for me. It defrosted smoked salmon without cooking it. Forever a fan just for that. Here are my notes: 1. Microwave - I used the "beverage" function to heat up some coffee. It's the Auto 1 I think (check the manual!) it heated it up nice and hot, it didn't get cold quick, and I was very pleased. I really only use the microwave for reheating (not cooking), so this was perfect. 5 stars on this front. 2. Combi - this was a combo grill/micro function for some hot dogs. I couldn't find a good guide in the rush of my son requesting hot dogs like he hadn't eaten anything in the past 6 years of his life, but I did a combi preset, had to do it twice, and while they came out good, almost like on the stove top, I think they could have been better--they lacked a little cooking in the center. I'll have to do some homework on the best hot dog function to use before my next request. 3. Airfry - I cut up some red potatoes (small if you ask me), dressed them with EVOO, salt, paprika and thyme and used the air fryer at 350 F for 30 mins. I MUST DISCLOSE that I have NEVER used an airfryer. Never. I saw it as a frivolous appliance that takes up too much space. Enter this micro. This is why I got the micro in the first place. Back to the potatoes, they could have been cooked a little more for my liking, perhaps a higher temp, but my husband thought they were amazing. Again, I have never air fryed, so probably some novice user error on my end. 5 stars for air frying! 4. Defrost. This is where this microwave SHINES like none other. I defrosted smoked salmon. Have you ever done that before????? the edges are ALWAYS *cooked* and I can't stand that. It defrosted perfectly. Not cooked. Not at all. DEFROSTED as if I'd left it out on the counter to defrost. My God. Chicken? Defrosted like a CHARM. Not cooked! not hot! DEFROSTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would give this 10,000 stars just for defrosting because I ALWAYS forget to take food out to defrost.

I've had this item for about 3.5 months. It was to replace two items, my microwave that finally conked out and an air fryer that was taking valuable counter space. Pros: *Microwave feature works very well *Interior is easy to clean *Overall design is attractive and modern *Lots of positive reviews Cons: *When air-frying and broiling, it takes longer than my old unit, sometimes double the recommended time. But even so, it doesn't fully crisp the food items as well as my prior unit, therefore currently using my oven. *Condensation builds up along the walls and door after just a few minutes of cooking time... lots of steam comes out when you open the door! While other reviewers complained of these issues, the company responded this as being common and normalized it. That is disappointing. Seems like a fan exhaust issue. I'm concerned of future mold issues. *The "remove odor" feature takes 5 minutes and doesn't remove odors. *The 2 included inserts are awkward...a metal rack with rubber feet to elevate and a nonstick perforated tray that lays on top of that. 1) If cooking/baking/air-frying any food that will emit drippings or grease, it will drip through the perforated tray onto the microwavable clear plate. I've been using a paper plate or a small dinner plate (additional item to wash) to catch everything, otherwise this would be very messy. 2) When air-frying or broiling, the elevated rack makes it difficult to flip food items and remove the hot tray from the mic. There isn't much room between the insert tray and ceiling, therefore you have to take everything out of the mic, flip and then put everything back in. This creates a mess because of the perforated tray mentioned in #1. Things to note... *The depth of this mic takes more space than an average mic. The elements in the back of the unit extend out by a couple of inches more from the actual box. *The size of the inside cavity is the same as my old mic, yet because it's a combo, it is 2-3x heavier. I mentioned this for those who have difficulty lifting heavy items. For this price point, I feel robbed and can not recommend this product. Currently, I'm using it as a microwave and nothing else, as it's other combo features are awkward and do not function well.

I needed to get a new microwave our old one was almost a decade old and the inside was starting to rust out. I needed something that I could mute as I am on night shift while the rest of the house works days. I shopped around locally because I didn't want the hassle of having to try and return a microwave to Amazon if it was junk, unfortunately I couldn't find any microwaves carried by any retailers in my area that had the mute function I wanted and many of them were just as expensive as this microwave. I was hesitant to pull the trigger on this product because of the reviews. There's a lot of *good* reviews on here but it's the bad ones I keep an eye out for, you cannot trust most of the reviews on this website anymore and its the overly critical reviews that I trust to be honest. Some folks were complaining this unit felt cheap and made of low quality parts. I disagree. This microwave is smaller than the one I used to own but somehow manages to be heavier than the larger microwave I had. The entire unit feels like it's built solidly, it has a stainless steel finish on the inside, so it's easy to clean. And best of all it has the mute function I wanted. As a bonus due to it's nature as a convection microwave I have noticed that it warms food in a slightly different manner, like to the point even microwave meals taste a little different and I have noticed that things like bowls and containers are less hot on the outside than I'd expect them to be. I'm glad I bought this unit, it seems reliable. Keep in mind there's a bit of a learning curve to using this microwave, you don't want to accidently engage it's grilling functions while you got plastic in there.

Have had this microwave for about a month now, bought it to replace my 20-year old Panasonic that had suddenly started taking much longer to heat. Chose this because it also has the convection/air fryer function. The 'regular' oven function works great - heats fast (minutes) and cooks well (chicken wings, roasted garlic) - very useful alternative to using a full oven. The microwave timer is set with a dial, and changes time increments as you pass 60 seconds, 5 min, etc. This is a bit annoying, but only because I am used to entering an exact number on the keypad of my last oven. Still getting used to the individual features and "quirks' of this oven, so I keep the manual close by. Clock very easy to set. Stainless steel interior is easy to clean, but recommend always covering the top of 'messy' food as the ceiling of the oven has an element, making it harder to access for cleaning.

Versatil horno, donde las funciones tales como microondas, conveccion, freidora o gratinador; están todos juntos en el mismo enser doméstico. Agiliza el tiempo en la cocina y ahorra espacio por ser varios aparatos en uno. Muy satisfecho con mi compra.

I actually do love this microwave. I am writing this after using it for almost 2 years. I love the air frying function and I love being able to have less appliances in my tiny apartment. This works well and doesn’t heat up too much on the sides and back which always used to concern me. It is a quiet and powerful thing. I’m glad to have invested in this microwave. It is also easy to clean.

The microwave portion works OK, but the other settings, broil, airfry etc, don't get hot enough. I cooked a sausage for 1/2 hour and it was still raw. Also when I received the box was smashed a bit but the only damage was a small ding on the handle. I should have returned immediately but we were moving so didn't get a chance to test. Also it is very difficult to operate. I needed the manual beside it, even after 2 weeks. My husband wouldn't even try it. Once I figured out how bad it was I couldn't return. I'm tossing in the garbage and buying an inexpensive toaster oven and a small microwave not Toshiba
