Breville Air Fry/Dehydrate Mesh Baskets for Smart Oven Air - Set of 3

In this review of the Breville Air Fry/Dehydrate Mesh Baskets, the bottom line is simple: if you own a Smart Oven Air and want to cook or dehydrate multiple small batches at once, these mesh baskets are the most practical accessory to consider. They are a set of three stainless steel mesh baskets purpose-built for air frying or dehydrating in the Smart Oven Air. The main reason to buy is capacity and convenience: the baskets let users arrange multiple items in separate baskets so heat and airflow circulate freely without crowding a single tray.

Key Features

• Set of three baskets: Provides the ability to air fry or dehydrate several small batches at the same time, reducing total cook time when preparing multiple items.
• Stainless steel mesh construction: The durable mesh allows hot air to circulate around food for even crisping and effective dehydration.
• Designed for Smart Oven Air: Specifically dimensioned for use in the Smart Oven Air, so you can stack or arrange baskets inside the oven for efficient layering.
• Dual use for air fry and dehydrate: Works for high-temperature air frying and low-temperature dehydrating, offering versatility for snacks, chips, jerky and more.
• Washable design: Many customers found the baskets dishwasher-safe or easy to wash, which helps with cleanup after messy frying or dehydration sessions.

Who It's For

The mesh baskets are best for Smart Oven Air owners who frequently cook small batches of items like fries, vegetables, or sliced fruit and want consistent airflow for even results. Home cooks who enjoy dehydrating herbs or fruit and those looking to increase the oven's effective capacity by using multiple baskets will appreciate the set.

These baskets are not for users who need perfect alignment with every variant of the oven interior or those who expect every unit to clean identically in the dishwasher; some customers reported fitment and cleaning differences. If you require a single large basket or non-mesh solid trays, look elsewhere.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Good build quality with durable stainless steel mesh that promotes even air circulation.
• Set of three increases throughput so you can cook or dehydrate multiple batches without swapping trays constantly.
• Solid value for the functionality they provide compared with buying multiple full-size trays.

Cons

• Some users report the baskets do not align perfectly in all Smart Oven Air units, so fit can vary.
• Cleaning experiences vary; while many find them dishwasher-safe, others find trapped bits require more manual scrubbing.
