Neat and efficient smaller microwave but big enough to deal with family of 4 needs. Smaller foot print leaving more space on worktop and easy to use .Recommended quality machine. Excellent value as "used like new" - not even taken out of new packaging! Bargain !!!!

Toshiba was the maker of of the first microwave oven I purchased. Since then I have tried several other makes. In my opinion Toshiba are the best both in quality, build and reliability. This one certainly lives up to there reputation , not only does it look good , it is easy to set up and use. Excellent value for money

Value for money and easy to use :)

Does exactly what I hoped it would and more. Works great as a normal microwave, and the power can be properly controlled, which is great for defrosting. The grill works nicely too - you put the food on the provided baking tray and grill rack and it rotates the food under the grill. The convection oven on its own needs a bit of time to heat up, but it works well too. You can also use any of these three main functions all at once, or in any combination. This allows for a huge range of cooking methods, but it can also get a bit confusing. You have to refer to the manual to understand what many of the programs do. Also you have to be careful not to use the baking tray and/or grill racks when the microwave function is enabled as part of the program. Therefore, if you are cooking something like pizza and you use the auto-cook program for that, you need to just use a normal non-metallic plate, which will get very hot during cooking. Having said all that though, you really can get excellent results for most kinds of food with a little practice using this device. There is also a provided plastic steamer tub which you can use to steam food. The "air fry" mode is actually just the convection oven and grill in combination. It is by no means an actual air fryer, but tbh that was pretty obvious to me before I bought it. It can get similar results though. I am very pleased with this purchase and it should be very helpful while my kitchen is renovated and I only have a temporary kitchen to use. It also looks pretty nice and will have its place in the new kitchen. The only downside is that the power cable is very short, but this is a problem with a lot of microwaves.

Brilliant combination microwave. There are physical buttons that are precise & easy to press. Not those awful touch buttons that are hit & miss. It is compact for such a comprehensive appliance. There is a large handle for opening the door & not those really hard to press buttons. It can take a full size dinner plate. It has an inverter that makes it the quietest microwave I've ever had. The inverter means anything in there is microwaved evenly throughout. The price is amazing compared to the other equivalent brands. The only negative is the programming of the combination settings. You will need to keep the comprehensive user booklet with it forever. Toshiba use non-intuitive symbols for the different programmes. I'm sure they could have used short words for these programmes. However this is a small gripe for such a great appliance. I've stopped using my main kitchen oven now as I'm cooking for 2 of us. I highly recommend this appliance. It's a game changer.

No issues with the microwave. Good size and easy to clean. Simple to use.

This review is for the 6 in 1 microwave with steamer. I'm very impressed with it. I would like to clear something up that I keep hearing from other reviews. The confusing air fryer automatic settings. Yes they are confusing and largely pointless. But at least automatic settings are unimportant because. When the air fryer is on it means that the oven and the grill is on full blast with of course thermostat control. So all you have to do is pick the oven and grill combination setting and then choose the time cooking. So you can choose precisely how long you would like to air fry. You don't have to go anywhere near the rather pointless auto programs. I'm personally not a big air fryer user but I can see it is not as an effective as a dedicated air fryer. But on the plus side the grill heats up very quickly once you get used to picking the right height and the right time. It's very handy for quickly or warming up a pasty. There's no temperature control on the grill so it is a bit hit and miss until you get used to it. Also be very careful using the supplied round baking tray. Because when the grill is in use there is a hot spot right at the centre about 2 in in diameter which could actually damage your pan. I would recommend getting a non-stainless round baking tray. The oven is really good but does take its time to warm up and you have to choose 20 or 30° higher than the stated temperature. The giveaway is this oven saying it can go up to 240°that is clearly an exaggeration for an oven of this size and power. Also it takes a good 10 minutes to warm up. You can't beat physics The temperature sensor will heat up fast because it's small but to really heat a whole oven it does take about 10 minutes. Then I would say the oven cooks beautifully very even. The benefit of a turntable really helps with even cooking. Even fan assisted ovens had air fries have dead spots. I toasted a load of peanuts and they came out completely uniformly golden however I initially set the temperature to 170° but the internal thermometer that I put in read about 140° which slowly crept up to about 150°. So if you want 170, you probably best to choose 200°. The microwave is the real key feature, it's such a time-saving device. Where my mum comes around I'm heating two plates. Instead of standing by the microwave worrying about splatters and overheating all the time. The lower power settings really seem to warm a plate through and you don't even need to stir it. The defrost is brilliant. I always used to mess about with putting meat in plastic bags and immersing them in water to defrost because the stand would microwave defrost would always burn the edges. For something really delicate you can go down to 10% microwave power. Standard defrost is 30% The interface is really nice I think it's generic because I've seen it on sharp microwaves. The inverter technology is real because I've tested the power consumption and it drops down with each setting. This microwave gets some criticism for exaggerating, it's air flying ability. I'm not sure about the steam function I don't know if it has a steam sensor which then reduces power. If it does that's an amazing feature but it's not mentioned. The steam tray is basically something you would get off Temu for a couple of pounds. For me the idea of cooking in plastic is not very appealing You can steam really well by just putting veg in a glass container with a centimetre of water at the bottom. I bought it when it was on sale for a bit of a discount which made me feel better about the whole thing. But all in all I absolutely love it.

Good

Best Microvave+ I ever had.

The product performance and delivery time exceeded all expectations.

I purchased this Toshiba microwave just 9 months ago, drawn in by the glowing reviews and solid reputation of the brand. For the first few months, it worked exactly as expected. However, it has now suddenly stopped working without any prior issues or misuse. The most frustrating part is discovering that, because I purchased it through the Amazon Global Store, the warranty does not apply in the UAE. This crucial detail was not made clear at the point of purchase. I now find myself without any support, despite the product failing well within what should reasonably be considered its expected lifespan. As a loyal Amazon customer and someone who trusted the Toshiba name, I am extremely disappointed. I’m now left to seek out a certified technician on my own and bear the full cost of repairs — something no customer expects for a premium product in less than a year. At the very least I strongly urge both Amazon and Toshiba to revisit how warranty limitations are communicated to international customers.

It claims to be an air fryer, it even says 'air fryer' on the box. It is not an air fryer. If you want an air fryer, I guess you have to buy an air fryer. I'm sad that I don't have an air fryer even though I thought I was buying an air fryer.
