I actually own both the Cuisinart Air Fryer Toaster Oven and the Breville!! The Breville Smart Oven is orders of magnitude better. I never use my regular oven, and I’ve only used the Cuisinart twice. The Breville does everything perfectly. It’s one of my favorite appliances I have ever bought
Big or glued cutting boards are not good
Advertisering for Amazon? “Do not recommend channel” for all future videos. Gross.
Regarding food storage containers, I like the standard round plastic deli containers. They’re both disposable and reusable, dishwasher safe, the lids are all the same for the one-cup, one-pint and one-quart containers. The containers nest in the cupboard and stack in the fridge and freezer. You can see what’s inside without opening them. If you have something in the back of the fridge that’s so gross you don’t even want to keep the container, no loss, it’s disposable.
I have a couple of Hexclad pieces and love them! I never have issues with sticking and they heat up evenly. I use mine on an induction burner.
Lisa, Would you consider testing stove top coffee percolators? I have one and use it. The hard part is coffee gets past the spout and I have a hard time getting all to drain out. I’m sure there is a better way. I adore your videos. Thanks for showing everything, Louise
Good to know what to avoid thank you.
All of the Breville products are extremely expensive here. What would be an alternative?
