Quick answer: Choose by how your counter and your weeknights actually work, not by how many preset buttons are printed on the panel. Compare interior room against the trays and dishes you already own, because a cavity that won't take your usual pan quietly goes unused. Look for a door, racks and crumb tray you won't resent cleaning — that single factor decides whether something stays on the counter or migrates to a cupboard. Check the current listing for price and availability before you commit, since both move constantly.

How this comparison is framed
Compare the options in the table on several axes: usable interior room, how heat and airflow are described for browning versus crisping, how fussy the controls and cleanup look, and how much counter and clearance the footprint demands. Compare how everything specific below comes from published specification information for each option. Verify anything that has to be exact for your kitchen — a cabinet gap, a shelf depth, an outlet position — against the listing itself rather than trusting a summary.

What actually matters once it's on your counter
Compare how the features that sell these are rarely the ones you live with. Check whether a tall cavity or a wide that option suits your cooking, because the several shapes genuinely serve different dishes and you can't have both at that option footprint. Compare how the controls are laid out, since dials and a readable display get used nightly while deep preset menus are learned once and forgotten. Confirm what the glass, racks and interior surfaces are like to wipe down, and ask about whether the coating is meant to be cleaned gently or scrubbed.
Worth watching before you order
Look for footage that shows loading, unloading and cleanup rather than only the finished food — door swing and rack behaviour are hard to judge from photographs.

Will this replace my full-size oven?
Partly, on weeknights. Compare interior room against the dishes you actually bake, and confirm rack positions suit a casserole as well as a flat tray. Choose the big oven for holidays and anything tall.
Do I need a separate air fryer too?
Usually not, if crisping is occasional. Compare basket-style crisping against a tray in a larger cavity — that option suits small batches, the other suits feeding a table.
How much space should I leave around it?
Compare how more than you'd guess.
Is a stainless exterior actually worth it?
Check how the finish is described, since stainless-look trim and solid stainless aren't the same thing.
