My wife and I were planning to get a simple microwave because our old one was going to our daughter, who was moving out of home. The sales person showed us the Breville 3-in-1 just so we had an idea of what's available. We also needed a larger air-fryer because we realized the healthier cooking method and wanted to try cooking larger items, however we were restricted by the size of our existing air-fryer. We weren't looking to spend so much on a microwave, however we realized that we could have a device that could be cost effective in that it's combining two devices (microwave and air-fryer), plus also offering another oven so we could cook two things at the same time. The biggest plus is that, with kitchens getting more and more devices for this and that, the Breville 3-in-1 is actually saving space in the kitchen. Now you're probably wondering what its like to use and how it performs. We've now had the Breville 3-in-1 for about a month, and it is amazing! You can cook something in th...

Air fryer function is not the best. Needs to be heated up every time for air fryer. Good combination of functions but not a great air fryer.

I have been unable to complete the dessert recipe as my turntable plate cracked while I was making a roast. I have never used an air fryer and I didn’t find that this oven cooked chips any better or faster than the regular oven. I am trying out a few different things to see if it is something useful. The chicken cooked quickly and the skin was crispy but the meat was a bit dry. As mentioned before, the turn table glass cracked in half while I was cooking a pork roast? I am not sure how as I was cooking in a Pyrex glass roast pan and had the turn table function “off” , I am unsure how to get a replacement part?

Previously I would never have attempted an actual cake but this microwave has changed my mind I made an apple cinnamon tea cake and it was AMAZING light and moist and golden brown on top it was absolutely delicious. Next I tried the air fryer function and made delicious crispy chips from scratch and wow they were spectacular easy to make and the results were great miles ahead of anything I’ve cooked in an oven. And speaking of ovens I don’t know that I’ll bother cooking a chook in mine again when this magnificent microwave can roast actually roast a chicken just as well if not better the chicken was beautifully cooked and juicy with yummy golden crispy skin. I would never ever have believed a microwave could do this if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes

Well I've been on the Breville roundabout. The first purchase was returned next day due to a scratch inside the glass door cavity, the second was returned several weeks later due to an error code. My current third one is working fine so far except from time to time the door won't close unless it is slammed shut with some force then all works well until it wont close again, so another slam fixes that. I'm feed up with taking it back to the store to be changed over, it's an hour round trip. Perhaps Breville can help me !!!.

Bought this appliance as we were looking at getting an air fryer and new microwave and were told this product was a great option. Unfortunately, the air fryer takes an awful long time to cook anything (approx. 30min for fries). Considering basic air fryers on the market will cook frozen fries in 15min, this is very disappointing. Without the fast cooking benefit of the air fryer, we are left with a very expensive microwave.

Overall the Breville Combi Wave™ 3 in 1 Microwave looked great! I’ve never made a cake in a microwave before so was really impressed with the Apple Cinnamon Butter cake. The process was quick and easy and it came out really moist. The air fry function was fair. My potato chips came out a little dry and I found that I had to cook it for a little longer than the suggested time. We ended up spraying the chips with oil before putting it in the Combi Wave for that extra crunch. The oven function was great! I cooked a whole chicken and it tastes very good. If the chicken was a little bigger it would have not fit inside. I like the oven function the best as it didn’t take long at all to preheat compared to my normal convection oven. My experience was good. I would not go out of my way to purchase this product as I found it was used more of a microwave than an air fry.
