Used daily for 6months no probs, better built than most and reflected in the price though not dramatically more if you take quality into account.
Is prob better value as is a fairly decent machine. Good enough quality i just bought the sage food processor.
Great oven, looks great and hears food quickly whilst looking premium, problem is., its difficult to keep clean, the elements at the bottom get splashed and are a nightmare to clean.
I love this little oven, it replaces everything …toaster, slow cooker, air fryer and your big oven. As there’s only 2 of us now it’s ideal and really easy to use and keep clea
This is a fantastic microwave combi. Extremely well made .All of the features in have tried have been great ,though tbe grill seems slow, but ,I have only tried it once.
It will last for many years
I love it’s versatility. So many functions but very easy to master. It makes the best crunchy toast.
I am 80 years old and this worktop height oven where I can see things cook and remove trays without bending is a huge benefit. Big oven is redundant.
This is fabulous as long as it’s working. We use it every day. Unfortunately for us, they’ve only lasted an average of 2-3 years. And there are no replacement parts. It is quite pricey.
Love the oven fryer but find it frustrating looking for sage accessories which take into account size of the oven etc
This is a really good compact oven. I have hardly used my main oven since I received this. However if you are very particular on keeping your oven spotlessly clean you will struggle with this as it is really difficult to keep the inside of the oven clean.
Can’t go wrong with this. Has lots of presets. Customising them is also very easy.
I had something similar to this when I lived in a shoebox apartment in Paris. Now, with energy prices being what they are, it’s terrific for baking, grilling, re-heating, and for making a slow-cook casserole. Even if energy prices come down I’d prefer to use this rather than the big oven.
Versatile and quick to heat up. I like the notification when the cooking is done. Cleaning it is not easy. The protective bars at the bottom are already stained as is the crumb tray. Despite this, I recommend this oven.
Purchased this for the air fryer function but we also use it as a conventional oven as well as it’s cheaper to run than our bigger oven. Looks great and performs really well although it can be difficult to clean at times. It is however a small price to pay to avoid other toxic air fryers
A classy air fryer which looks far, far better than the plastic basket ones you see everywhere. Shelves make it easy to cook two or more items at the same time, and food quality is first rate. Chips, roast potatoes, sausages, joints, fish and scampi, etc, taste like restaurant quality. I love the crispy outside of coated food with fluffy and/or juicy fillings. 5/5.
This is a great oven, we now use it all the time over our normal oven which we only use if we cant fit it in this one. I would have give it 5 star if you could increase the times when cooked toast and crumpets as the set times dont cook it enough.
Great little oven that has been really useful.
Pizza turn out great and baking small things works well.
Did a whole chicken and although it cooked really well it was a bit of a faff to clean afterwards.
Main thing missing is a delay start as then probably use even more
Because of its size, it is so much quicker to reach the correct temperature and uses much less power than a normal oven. It is very versatile and has different settings for many different functions. The timer is automatic so when the time is reached, it rings the bell and shuts itself off.
My only complaint is that the instructions do not go into enough detail about how to use all these functions, particularly the air-fryer. A cook book would have been nice.
Likes; air fryer and grill seem to cook much quicker than conventional oven
Downside, difficult to clean. The base tray pulls out, but the 2 base heat elements can become splattered with food and once baked on can be difficult to remove.
The top of the oven, externally, gets very hot.
I read other reviews and was a little worried with mention of smoke coming from the door.
We got it and tried the air fry, fantastic best over chips ever. Then did some roast potatoes, cheese on toast, pizza, chicken breaststroke and more.
Everything has cooked so well, love this and it’s so good on the electricity usage as well.
If you get it and allow for the steam that does come out when cooking certain items it’s brilliant, would not be without it.
This has become our principal means of cooking, as it is easy to use and relatively economical (compared to having our electric Aga on at all times). We have used it for a range of different foods, from mains to desserts/cakes and it simply performs well.
Yes it is a bit bulky (you need some counter-top space to accommodate it) and it’s not that easy to clean, but I don’t think we’d want to be without it now that we’ve tried using it.
very easy to use, the controls are intuitive and precise. versatile selection of modes .
an extra shelf would be helpful as would damping on the door closure, overall an excellent produc
I’m a big sage fan. Have numerous kitchen items. I was looking for a small oven to cook frozen stuff, chips, jacket potato etc rather than turn on my main oven and use more electricity. Made pizza in the oven, did jacket spuds. The air fry feature ( super convection ) is rapid, you can’t take your eye off it or your tea’s in the bin!
Pros,
Small, fast cooking. Great features. Sit on top of any worktop ant looks great.
Cons.
Gets very hot.
Heating tubes not the easiest to clean.
Would I buy this item again if it broke. Yea! I would.
Whatch the power settings and times. Can produce excellent stuff
Great range of cooking modes as well as air fryer function. Cooks quickly and very well. No need to use our main oven anymore.
Ots us extremely hot n has given me blisters, is this normal, jt is very pleasing to look at, have not cooked or baked, just heated a pizza for 5 mins n it got that hot to burn my fingers lol, let me know if rhis is normal, cause i so don’t want it to be faulty, its so BEAUTIFUL
I bake & cook several times a week & the oven in my stove cooker is very large & uses so much electricity. I bought this Sage oven over a month ago as there’s just two of us at home now & I wanted to save energy & money.
It heats up quickly & cooks everything as well as my large oven, & uses less energy.
Was pleasantly surprised by the air fryer. I’ve never much liked oven chips, but the air fryer cooks them perfectly within 12 minutes.
I’m very happy with this product & would definitely recommend it.
I bought this product because my oven broke down. I am using it almost everyday and I love it.
Use this every day instead of the big oven. Love i
Really east to use, and numerous cooking choices and cooks them really well.
This is a fantastic oven and I can’t recommend it highly enough.
I use the Toast function for the best toast ever; crunchy and evenly grilled. The Airfryer makes a fantastic job and is far better than other airfyers I have used. It is quick too compared to others. The Roast is quick and efficient. Reheat works perfectly and is a change from the microwave, it works great to reheat pizza. The Pizza function is superb! It’s like having your own pizza oven. I’ve not used bake yet.
This is such a versatile piece and it makes such a good job of everything.
It looks good, is fairly neat and it is extremely easy to operate.
I love this and I can’t imagine life without it now!
Tons of features Quiet easy to use
Good recipe book on the sage website and looks great as for cleaning I have a Teflon mat in the drip tray would recommend this produc

Bought this for use as a oven and air fryer works very well. Nice bit of ki
I’m a keen cook and wanted to replace an ageing gas oven with something non-gas and more suitable for living on my own.
Tried almost all of its functions, and have been very pleased with how easy it is to use and how well it copes with everything I throw into it. Like any new oven, it’ll take me a bit of time to fine-tune my understanding of it – the first attempt at bread-making was a little bit over-tanned, but if it continues to perform so consistently, I’ll continue to be as much in love with it as I am now!
Works well not very good instructions for different things. Would of liked a better description for cooking different food s apart from that it works well
I originally had an all singing Daewoo which air fried roasted and had a lot of other functions.It made my gas oven virtually obsolete.Apart from the odd bread and butter pudding and keeping food warm my traditional oven was never used.After 8 years of almost constant use my Daewoo gave up the ghost and stopped working.I decided then it was time to buy a new oven with as many functions as possible.After much searching and reading reviews I decided to buy the Air Fryer pro.It was 100 more than the conventional sage oven.Is it worth the extra? I think it is.The oven has a larger capacity and the air fryer function is amazing.Everything I’ve cooked so far using the different functions has turned out perfectly.My conventional oven is still unused.This is a perfect work top oven guaranteed to give perfect results.

Have had this oven for a few weeks now and my partner absolutely loves it … the main kitchen oven has been consigned to just large slow cooking.
This oven bakes cakes like you wouldn’t believe!!
Awesome!!
Having a double oven range cooker when my wife died I was looking for something smaller in the kitchen I could handle. I found it, I’m using this appliance every day, it cooks everything to perfection.
Only thing is use tin foil to keep clean just hard were the bars are but still no big deal . Glad I got this love i
This is my second Sage product after Espresso machine and I’m happy with both of them.
Air frying, baking, pizza, heating, and more. All this functions work perfectly.
It’s well built and designed with a modern look. Easy to clean as well.
I don’t see any negative point to say.
The “little” oven had made our free standing electric oven redundant. It does the job as advertised admirably. The instructions are clear and easy to follow. It cooks beautifully in all functions and is very easy to clean. It was bought to supplement our existing oven but has replaced it. Not cheap but highly recommended.
Fantastic oven with so many features – we use it every day
Not suitable for multiple cooking all at once due to size limitations, Main oven and this working together still necessary but that’s not a fault, this is an enhanced toaster oven that is very useful – gets used every day by all family
Very handy oven and great to cook a small amount with. Chicken wings are great but boy do you end up with a lot of smoke in the kitchen which puts me off using it for air frying. Great for toast and crumpets but there again so is my toaster so is it really worth the money?
Great oven but difficult to clean. Don’t cook fatty meat or anything that drips or spits or it’s some tricky cleaning for you. Lots of nooks and crannies, angles, etc make it tricky.

Multifunction oven. Have not used all the programmes yet but heats up quickly and oven function provides good result.
very versatile solid oven easy to use and clean would recommend to others
Great value for money most of my meals made in this. Great versality early signs is that it is econoon electricity and with capacity to cook more meals for 1or more people
I bought this after my daughter recommended it. It is easy and economical to use and easy to keep clea
my oven broke just before christmas. This was a life saver. Great little oven. Iv used it all the time
We had the North American version (Breville) and loved it. I always regretted not getting the higher end model with the air frying function. So this time we got it and we’re not disappointed!!!
Excellent product but an achillies heel regarding provision of replacement spare parts after guarantee period expired. Two years limited guarantee is excellent with replacement of defective unit under registered guarantee statutes but thereafter a problem ensues with no spare part availability in the UK inclusive of basic heater elements. At such a price that is more than a disappointing situation, it’s really quite unacceptable.
I was looking for a replacement for our two Actifrys that were end of life, of which I had to keep sourcing replacement parts for (pan with holes, snapping paddle etc.). I’m happy with this as maintenance will be much lower since the parts are more robust and there is no internal plastic that wears over time. You can also shave off around a quarter of the cooking time when air frying compared to the Actifry since it cooks faster, which is a bonus.
It’s very easy to use and you can adjust both the timer and temperature whilst cooking. When the timer ends, it shuts off the heat, which is good compared to an Actifry that would keep on cooking with its quirky timer.
Chips are great, no turning required (unless you are layering them in crazy portions). It is nice and compact, ideal for 2 people portion-wise for chips. Because it is small, it heats up quickly and this is often useful rather than waiting on a larger over or grill. I’ve used most other functions (PIzza, Grill, Toast) and they all perform well, though I’ve not tried baking in it yet.
Couple of things to note:
There is a removeable catchment tray (which is not stainless). This makes for reasonably easy cleaning if you tackle it quickly (this and the other removeable trays). However, I’d say you are best not to cook anything too fatty in it since it will make a real mess just like an oven, with steamy grease rising and covering the insides. There’s not a lot of ventilation for heat escape and smoke tends to stream out the front. With an Actifry, the mess is captured mostly between the lid and tray (both removable), whereas this it is just the tray and you’ll need to wash down grease inside time-to-time too or a dirty unit will create smoke.
Finally I received my unit with a minor dent in the handle. Sage would not replace just the handle (two screws to remove) saying they didn’t stock that part and wanted the whole thing back, which I thought was a bit ludicrous, since the machine itself was perfectly fine. So I’m not sure how available replacement parts are.
Overall a good unit we use more than the oven and I’d buy again over an Actifry.

Chicken very good . slow cooker great . Cannot find a cookbook for sage air fried got six books but for small ones not big oven did apple turnovers very nice
Fantastic little oven. I’m isolating and can do everything, from toast to bake, roast and fry the best chops ever. For one person this cannot be beaten.
I have a large range oven and bought this smart oven in part to save time and money when cooking odd bits here and there where you don’t need a full oven. This has actually meant pretty much everything since the device arrived, and all of it had come out faultless. A peach tart came out especially well, and bacon very nicely.
It’s also handy to have an airfryer option, and so far potato waffles, fish fingers, bacon and breaded scampi have come out much better than when baked in the range oven. There’s just a bit of guesswork here as none of these products list cooking guidelines for airfryers so you need to experiment.
A major advantage of the size is that it comes up to temperature in just a few minutes. You can just chuck most food in as you’re turning it on as it will be at temperature really quickly.
I won’t be using it to cook large meals for lots of guests, but for a family of three, and when cooking normal sized cakes and tarts etc, it seems really ideal.

Perfect compliment to our kitchen. It replaces our toaster and air fryer so saves space and does a better job than both items. With all the other functions It is a must in your kitchen.
Excellent service Amazon.
I ordered this oven on 7th June which was lost in transit. Rang Amazon customer service and they replaced it immediately. The order was received today.
The oven looks good and easy to use. I would recommend this to anyone who is buying oven/ air fryer for the first time. It is a bit on the expensive side but worth the investment.
Cooks great please with purchase would buy sage products agai
I use this little oven every day. Extremely easy to use and clean, really versatile. A great addition to any kitchen.
Sage is a great brand for kitchen. We have bought few products from this company and they have made us more than happy. This oven has been very good and is doing a great job.
Few things to be careful with.
1. It gets hot on all sides. If you have children be very careful because they can burn their hands.
2. The unit does not have a power off button so all you are left with is to let it turn itself off which it does after few minutes but makes a strange noise when you’re close to it. I turn it off by the main socket.
3. Make sure not to touch the right side of the oven where the fan is. It looks like when you push a bit over there, you will touch the fan and it kind of makes you feel you’re stopping the fan. I don’t know why Sage did not put a metallic plate there to protect the fan.
So far we cooked bread and pizza but I will be cooking more things.
My advice is to wrap things like meat or burgers because they will spill and make it dirty. It is hard to clean it so try to keep it as clean as possible by not letting food spill on the sides top or bottom.
We have a Rayburn and bought this mostly for the summer, but it’s in daily use and, so far, as good as all our other Sage products- coffee machine, mixer, etc- brillia
I purchased this from the same seller but via eBay to take advantage of PayPal credit. I own multiple Sage products and the quality is second to none. I have no doubt that this will be used daily given the multiple options from baking and slow cooking to toasting and air frying. I have only tried a boiled egg on the air fry setting so far (yes you can air fry an egg) and at 15 mins on 270 it came out perfect. Excited to see how it performs with meats and vegetables. Yes it is as expensive as a normal cooker/oven but you are getting multiple devices in one unit. Why have a slow cooker, toaster, air fryer and oven when you can have it all in one device. Quality product from a quality brand.
