The 7 Best Toaster Ovens Under $100 of 2026, Ranked & Reviewed

Our verdict: Eight slices, an extra-wide cavity and a convection fan for the money.

The TO3250XSBD is the biggest oven in this ranking, rated for eight slices, and it adds convection, a fan that moves hot air around the food. That fan is what separates real roasting from simply warming food under two elements.

It beats the Hamilton Beach Easy Reach models because a wide cavity and a fan matter more than extra preset buttons. Where the Easy Reach 6-slice ovens trade width for a pizza function, this one gives you room for a larger tray and faster, more even browning. Convection also tends to shorten cook times, which eases the heat on a summer kitchen.

Best for families who want a toaster oven to replace the full oven on weeknights. The caveat is counter space: the extra-wide body needs a generous spot, and it lacks a dedicated air fry mode.

Our verdict: A 6-slice oven with a pizza function and a simple, durable feature set.

This Hamilton Beach pairs a 6-slice cavity with a pizza function, which is the setting most buyers actually use after toast. It is the plain version of the Easy Reach line, with no fan or air fry hardware to fail.

It ranks just below the BLACK+DECKER because six slices of space and no convection means slower, less even results on thicker food. Against the Easy Reach air fry model beneath it, you give up crisping but gain a simpler control scheme and fewer moving parts. The footprint is more forgiving than the 8-slice unit, so it fits more kitchens.

Pick it if you toast, reheat and bake frozen pizza and want zero fuss. The honest caveat is that without a fan it handles wings and fries poorly, and big roasts need the full oven.

Our verdict: The same 6-slice Easy Reach body with an air fry mode added.

This model keeps the 6-slice Easy Reach cavity and adds an air fry mode, which in practice means a fan and a higher airflow setting for crisping frozen fries, nuggets and wings. It is the cheapest way here to get a toaster oven and an air fryer in one footprint.

It ranks third because an air fry mode in a toaster oven is smaller in capacity than a dedicated basket machine, so batches stay modest. Compared with the plain Easy Reach it adds versatility at the same price bucket, while compared with the BLACK+DECKER 6-slice air fry oven below, the Hamilton Beach brand and Easy Reach design give it a slight edge on everyday toasting.

Best for a household that wants one appliance doing both jobs. The caveat is that crowding the rack ruins the crisp, so cook in single layers.

Our verdict: A 6-slice air fry oven aimed at heavier daily use.

BLACK+DECKER's 6-slice air fry oven covers the same ground as the Hamilton Beach air fry model, with a six-slice cavity and an air fry setting. It is positioned for busier households that run the oven several times a day.

It sits one rung below the Hamilton Beach because the two share capacity and function, and the Hamilton Beach Easy Reach design is the more proven one for reheating. This BLACK+DECKER is the better choice if you already own BLACK+DECKER small appliances or find it on sale. It trails the 8-slice convection model by a wide margin on cavity size.

Choose it for a busy kitchen where air frying is a regular habit. The caveat is that, like any six-slice oven, thick roasts and large trays will not fit.

Our verdict: A stainless 1800W oven with a broiler for browning tops.

Cuisinart's Toaster Oven Broiler is a stainless steel 1800W unit built around fast heat and a broil element. That wattage is high for the category, which helps recover temperature each time you open the door.

It ranks below the air fry ovens because it offers no fan, so airflow is natural rather than forced, and there is no crisping setting. It beats the compact Hamilton Beach models on build and power, which is why it holds fifth. The middle-of-the-road price is fair for a stainless body that wipes clean.

Best for a cook who toasts open-faced sandwiches, melts cheese and finishes casseroles under the broiler. The caveat is that the listing gives no capacity figure, so check the interior size against your favorite pan before ordering.

Our verdict: A 4-slice air fry combo that fits tight counters.

This Hamilton Beach shrinks the formula to a 4-slice cavity while keeping an air fry mode, which makes it the practical oven for a dorm, studio or small kitchen. It is the lowest-cost pick in the roundup.

It ranks sixth because four slices is a tight limit: a standard frozen pizza will not fit and a roasting dish will not either. Compared with the 6-slice Easy Reach air fry model above, you save counter space but give up the capacity that makes an air fry mode useful for a family-size batch.

Buy it for one or two people who air fry snacks and toast bread. The caveat is that small cavities heat quickly but crowd easily, so batches must stay small to crisp.

Our verdict: A toaster and a small oven in one stainless body.

This stainless Hamilton Beach pairs a 2-slice long-slot toaster with a countertop oven, so it can toast bread and bake small items at the same time. It is the only appliance here that doubles as a true slot toaster.

It finishes last because the oven side is small, with no convection and no air fry, and the fuller feature set costs more than its capacity warrants. Against the 4-slice Hamilton Beach combo above, it trades cooking range for the convenience of a dedicated toasting slot, which suits a household that makes toast every morning.

It makes sense for someone who wants one appliance instead of two on a crowded counter. The caveat is that anything bigger than a few pieces of toast or a personal pizza belongs in another oven.
