If you’re looking for a large countertop oven that also toasts and air fries, the Instant Omni Plus Multi-Use Toaster Oven fits the bill. It roasts an incredibly crispy rotisserie chicken, but also toasts bread evenly. It competes with the best air fryers for making French fries.

Another major difference according to me is that this beautiful bright light comes on as soon as you open the door on the Instant Omni, whereas the oven light only works while cooking in case of the Ninja oven and not everyone's kitchen is brightly lit.

I didn't think we needed something this elaborate but now I use it multiple times a day. Over the summer I didn't even turn on our oven, just used this if I needed to bake anything. It's so handy.
