Toshiba’s ML2-EC10SA microwave solves a common kitchen problem: countertop real estate. Instead of needing a separate microwave and air fryer, this 1.0 cubic foot unit combines both into a single, black stainless steel appliance. It’s a practical answer for small kitchens or anyone looking to reduce clutter without sacrificing function.

The 1000-watt microwave handles standard reheating quickly. Where it stands out is its convection and air fry modes, which use a dedicated heating element and fan to circulate hot air. You can crisp frozen fries or roast vegetables directly on the included rack, and the 12.4-inch turntable ensures even cooking. The eight preset functions, from broiling to a dedicated odor removal cycle, make it versatile for daily tasks.

At this compact size, it’s best for individuals or couples, not large family meals. The controls are straightforward, and the two-step child lock adds a sensible safety layer. For a combo appliance, it performs each core task reliably, making it a genuinely useful multitasker for a limited space.
