Hamilton Beach Sure-Crisp Air Fryer 6-Slice Toaster Oven 31416 review

The Hamilton Beach Sure-Crisp Air Fryer 6-Slice Toaster Oven, exact model 31416, is a single-cavity oven with four named routines: Air Fry, Bake, Broil and Toast. The maker's current Convection Ovens listing showed the model as out of stock when checked on October 25, 2026, so treat it as an identification and comparison page, not a promise of immediate availability. Do not confuse the bare 31416 code with 31416G or 31416J when checking a label, parts list or retailer search.

Air Fry plus familiar toaster-oven jobs

The official 31416 product page lists Air Fry, Bake, Broil and Toast. Air Fry is the added reason to consider this model over a very basic toaster oven: the manufacturer describes a mesh basket over a pan that catches drips. The linked two-page Use & Care guide covers base model 31416, Type O93, and describes placing food in the basket, turning or stirring some foods during the cycle, and keeping the oven nearby rather than treating it like an unattended appliance. Air Fry is still one routine in a small oven; Hamilton Beach cautions that its air-fry function may need more time than a standalone air fryer. No independent cooking results or timing tests are claimed here.

There is no separate Convection Bake selection in the four-mode list. Air movement during Air Fry should not be read as a fifth selectable mode, and the page does not name Dehydrate, Proof, Pizza, Bagel, Reheat or a food probe. If a distinct convection-bake choice is essential, compare the Hamilton Beach 31350G instead: its page lists a separate Convection Bake routine. If you want a simpler toaster oven and do not need the basket, another four-slice model may use less counter space.

Capacity examples are not one combined load

Hamilton Beach separately lists six slices of toast, a 12-inch pizza, a 5-pound chicken and a 9-by-11-inch baking pan as fit examples. Those examples help screen familiar meals, but they do not establish a cubic-foot cavity volume or guarantee that different items fit together. The maker also lists three rack positions; those are alternative placements inside one cooking chamber, not independent cooking zones. If your routine depends on a particular pan, check that pan's actual outside width, depth and handles against a correctly measured unit before relying on a nominal pan size.

There is a material dimension conflict to keep in view. The exact base-model 31416 page prints 14.18 inches deep by 7.2 inches wide by 9.06 inches high. Hamilton Beach's exact 31416G and 31416J pages instead print about 17.2 inches wide by 14.2 inches deep by 9.1 inches high, although they link the same Type O93 guide family and show the same 31416-04 image. The guide identifies model 31416 and allows letter suffixes, but it does not resolve this mismatch. For the bare model, the width is therefore unknown for a measured-counter decision: do not rely on 7.2 inches or borrow 17.2 inches from a sibling page. If a firm footprint is essential, verify the exact appliance with the manufacturer or choose a model whose dimensions are unambiguous.

Controls, electrical needs and care

This is a manual-control oven rather than an app-connected appliance. The product page lists 1500 watts and 150–450°F; its linked guide identifies Type O93 at 120 volts and 60 hertz and describes the Air Fry, Bake, Broil and Toast controls. The product page names a mesh Air Fry basket, bake pan, broil rack and slide-out crumb tray. A used listing may be missing one of those pieces, so compare the seller's actual contents with the manual diagram rather than assuming every accessory comes with it.

The maker's guide says to unplug the oven and let it cool before cleaning, wipe the cavity and glass with a damp soapy cloth, and wash the listed pieces in hot soapy water; it advises against metal scouring pads. It does not establish dishwasher safety. Its one-inch food-to-heating-element warning matters when loading a basket or pan. The page's body dimensions are not a clearance plan, and no numeric side or top clearance for this exact code is established in the evidence reviewed here.

Who should choose it?

Model 31416 is a plausible fit when the four listed routines cover your meals, the six-slice or 12-inch-pizza examples are useful, and a manual timer-and-temperature approach is acceptable. It is a poor match if your must-have is a separately named Convection Bake, a measured width threshold, independent zones, app control, a probe, or a published cubic-foot capacity. The manufacturer category marked the exact code out of stock on the check date; a search is not a stock guarantee. If you are comparing secondhand or retailer listings, use the exact term Hamilton Beach 31416 Sure-Crisp Air Fryer Toaster Oven, then verify the appliance label and included pieces. Keep 31416, 31416G and 31416J separate in any purchase decision.
