The Cuisinart Digital Air Fryer CTOA-130PC3 is a combo toaster oven/air fryer. Like other Cuisinart toaster ovens, its control panel is over the oven door instead of on the side, which gives it a taller design. This 'Digital' model has a screen that displays a menu of its various functions and information about your chosen setting. It's quite versatile and includes a 'Dual Cook' function that lets you set up 2-step cooking, which is unusual for toaster ovens. This medium-sized toaster oven has a wire rack, baking tray, and mesh basket for air frying.
Our Verdict
It's great for mixed usage. It's big enough for the average frozen pizza, six slices of bread, or cookware like a loaf or cake pan. It also maintains a very stable temperature during cooking, which helps you get good results when baking and avoid burning your food before it's cooked through. It has a good air frying performance, so you can use it for crispy foods like French fries, and it's good for toasting, although it toasts one side of the bread more and isn't as fast as most slot toasters.
Decent capacity.
Good air-frying performance.
Fantastic temperature stability.
Toasts one side more.
May not fit bigger cookware.
The Cuisinart Digital Air Fryer/Toaster Oven is great for reheating leftovers. It has a decent amount of capacity and can easily fit bowls and plates. It preheats quickly, which is nice if you're reheating a quick snack. It doesn't overshoot your selected temperature setting, which helps avoid parts of your food burning or drying out before they're cooked through.
Doesn't overshoot selected temperature setting.
Preheats quickly.

The Cuisinart Digital Air Fryer/Toaster Oven is fantastic for baking. The temperature fluctuates slightly at the beginning of cooking but remains very stable afterward. The temperature is never much higher than your selected setting, and it's very uniform throughout the cooking chamber. All of this helps you get good results when baking. It also reduces the risk of your food burning before it's properly cooked.
Fantastic temperature stability.
Doesn't overshoot selected temperature setting.
The Cuisinart Digital Air Fryer/Toaster Oven is good for air frying. Using its air fry mode and mesh basket, it quickly makes air-fried food like chicken wings and French fries. It air fries quite evenly, so your food comes out mostly crispy, although some is still undercooked or overcooked.
Mesh air-fry basket included.
Air fries quickly.
Some under and over-cooked food.
The Cuisinart Digital Air Fryer/Toaster Oven is good for toasting. It can make six slices of golden-brown toast quite quickly. It browns the surface of each slice evenly, although it tends to toast the bottom less evenly and faster than the top. If you use only four slices at once, it toasts both sides more equally.
Toasts evenly.
Toasts one side more.
The Cuisinart Digital Air Fryer/Toaster Oven has a decent amount of cooking capacity. This medium-sized toaster oven can fit six slices of bread and the average frozen pizza. It can also accommodate smaller cookware like a loaf pan or a 9" x 9" cake pan but can't quite fit a 9" x 13" baking sheet.
Decent capacity.

Popular Toaster Oven Comparisons
The Cuisinart Digital Air Fryer/Toaster Oven is a medium-sized toaster oven/air fryer combo that performs well for a variety of uses. This model is the same size and has a similar design to the Cuisinart Air Fryer TOA-60 and the Cuisinart Air Fryer TOA-70, but it offers more versatility, as it has more functions and a wider temperature range. Like the TOA-60, it has a strong air-frying performance for an oven-style air fryer.
It's good for toasting and offers fantastic temperature stability for baking or reheating leftovers. However, if you plan to use your toaster oven for baking casseroles, cakes, or loaves of bread, you might prefer the Breville the Smart Oven BOV800XL or the Wolf Gourmet Elite WGCO150S. Both offer a bigger capacity and more possible rack positions, so they can accommodate a wider variety of cookware.
