I'm glad you mentioned that it wasn't the best air fryer... I've had one of these for a year or 2 now and I do like it (especially like the oven feature if I just want to have 2-4 cookies fresh out of the oven but don't want to bake a whole batch). I don't use the air fryer much because it just didn't live up to all the hype I've heard about air fryers. Recently I had yet another person tell me that the air fryer is a game changer, so I was thinking about buying a dedicated air fryer. I think I'll probably get one after seeing this.
So this product is terrible. I purchased it based on this video and several others that claimed it was wonderful. The first time I used it was for an air fryer mode. First off you can only set it between 400- 450°F. Great! I have a recipe that calls for 350 so now what? It forces you to do a preheat and tells you to put the pan in. Unfortunately it does not stop to tell you to actually put the food in. It just goes right into air frying mode forcing you to stand there for three minutes waiting for it to preheat. Furthermore unless you hit the “a bit more” button, you will have to go through preheat again if you need to cook more. I cooked several items in here and none of them were crispy. We have a very cheap air fryer that is amazing compared to this. The microwave function is decent and the oven isn’t bad but I mainly bought this for the air fryer microwave combo. It really fell short of my expectations. I recommend saving your money.
Could you please put up some more simple recipes using all the functions. I'm two weeks in now and slightly confused by simple things - how to cook a burger, baking a cake, making a casserole for example. I feel like I've lost my oven mojo!
Have you (or anyone else) tried just convection oven for the wings then grill to crisp them? I always wonder why no one in these videos ever tries that. In the video, her nuggets didn't look that great and neither of them seemed to be very impressed by the taste.
Try some slap ya mama, creole, seasoning salt, garlic powder, or onion powder. Maybe a combination of 2 or 3 of those for your seasoning... instead of salt and pepper..
Please do more combiwave recipes and please review the device! How well does the air fryer work for your recipes?

Nice! Does this dehydrate?
What is the temp ranges for the oven and the fryer?

Oh no .. are you still feeling the same now? Is the air frying function really that useless?
@@chengkitying2001 yes. Horrible air frying. I got my money back
You don't have to go through the whole process to add more time - just turn the time dial. Easy.
It definitely isn't an air fryer, just a poor convection oven.
I just bought one of these units. Do you know why the air fryer temp can be set below 400 degrees?
Thank you for your video. Does it toast bread?
Hi Gloria, no, it doesn’t work as a bread toaster ...
@@Momjo thank you for replying 🙂
Do we need to put foil or baking paper?? Thanks
How well does it clean after a steak or chicken? Especially with all the holes in the burner above. ??💕
if you set it to broil can you make toast, one side at a time?
Kid: "Mmmm.. The kale chips are perfect!"
Also Kid: "Ehhh... I don't want another one."
Lol! She didn't seem to be overly impressed with the nuggets either.
LOL, her mouth said "mmm" but those eyes cant lie. She was not impressed.

does the microwave plate stay inside when air frying?
Yes
Do you double the time on all air fryer recipes?
Hello! I just bought one and wonder if yours clicks every 15 seconds or so while cooking?
My Combi Wave does click every few seconds
Have you figured a way to use it as a toaster or just use convection and flip?
Surely you could do that on the air fryer setting. My air fryer has a toast setting. I think it’s 220°C for 6 minutes.
Tried out air frying chicken wings tonight in our combi wave and it took me around 25 minutes at 425 to get them just right.

How good is the Air Fryer function in comparison to the traditional Air Fryer?
Crap
Thank you, I learned nothing
Where's the best place to buy one ?
I'd say straight from their website - breville.ca?

Returned it loooong ago
Why not try the full combo of all 3 at once , would cut the time in half.
My interpretation of this video is - no matter how much we smile and pretend, the machine is pretty hopeless
i only clicked cause she looked like Abella Danger
Not honest review, if a stainless steel pan for 15Eur does same work, then why use this crap? Temperature not adjustable?
