The Instant Omni Pro is the flagship Air Fryer Toaster Oven from Instant Brands. One reason to get it over the Instant Omni Plus is the integrated probe thermometer, which reminds me of the Ninja Foodi Smart XL Pro Air Oven.
What I really like about the Instant Pot Air Fryer Toaster Oven is the full touch screen interface. There’s no knob whatsoever, keeping the lines clean and minimalist.
Think about it—an oven with a sleek, black outer design and 14-in-1 functionality will be an elegant addition to your countertop.
Award: 7th Best Instant Air Fryer
Consider what this could mean for you and your family—a variety of delicious home-cooked meals with the help of one kitchen appliance.
Often, each guest or family member has their personalized preference on the toast darkness of their bread. As luck would have it, the added feature of this air fryer is the seven customizable toasting levels. Now everyone can devour their perfect toast.
Plus, it has a large capacity (18L or 19 Quarts) that fits a 12-inch pizza or a rack of ribs at once—making your kitchen tasks less of a chore. I haven’t even talked about its rotisserie function. Let’s save it in the next section.
In the mean time, let’s read through the Instant Omni Pro’s gains and losses:

What can you cook in the Instant Omni Pro?
The Instant Pot Omni Pro 14 in 1 Toaster Oven offers the following functionalities:
This product can do anything from toasting 6 slices of bagel halves to roasting a 4 lbs chicken, air frying onion rings, baking cookies, and more. You name it, the Instant Omni Pro does it!
If you are a baker by heart or recently joined the baking bandwagon, check this out:
The proof function has a temperature range of 70 to 100 °F (21 to 38 °C), which allows the dough to rise. Alas! No more second-guessing if you proofed your dough right.
You can also impress your family or guests with your homemade fruit roll-ups and flavored jerky. You see, dehydrating fruits, veggies, and herbs using the Omni Pro is another fun alternative to serving store-bought snacks.
Fun fact:
The new feature, probe cooking, keeps track of the internal temperature of your dish. Hence, gives you peace of mind in preparing a food-safe meal. This feature, however, can’t be used in the rotisserie setting.
Picture this:
A perfectly baked lasagna with a crispy top coming out of the Instant Pot Air Fryer Toaster Oven. Or, a well-seared ham, crunchy on the outside but juicy inside. Both achievable? Yup!
On a different note:
Did you know that the Split Cook setting lets you pre-program 2 functions or temperatures one after another? In fact, you can use this feature in the rotisserie setting and have a perfect crispy and juicy roast all the time.
Before I forget, this product also has 7 customizable toasting levels to suit your preference.
Is the Instant Pot Air Fryer Toaster Oven easy to use?
Yes, thanks to its easy-to-read and use touch control panel. In fact, its control panel is more intuitive than the Instant Pot Omni Plus.
All you have to do is touch the +/- buttons to adjust the temperature, time, and function. To begin and end cooking, simply press the start or cancel button.
Here’s an interesting fact:
The Instant Pot Omni Pro 14 in 1 Toaster Oven has a progress display bar that tells you the cooking status. With this, you can easily monitor each phase of preheating, cooking, and warming.
Now, I can’t stress this enough, but the built-in probe makes everything absolutely effortless. Especially if you’re not an experienced cook.
Think about it:
Not all recipes are the same and more importantly, ingredients’ size vary a lot. Therefore, your recipe’s actual cooking time might be different than the instructions given to you. As a result, you might end up with undercooked/overcooked food.
That’s where the built-in probe comes in. Thanks to this, you only need to edit the temperature you want for the recipe and the machine will do the rest. Essentially, the Instant Omni Pro will automatically stop cooking once the food reaches your desired temperature.
This is one way of achieving a perfect doneness for our prime rib.
How to Clean the Instant Omni Pro Air Fryer?
In general, cleaning the Omni Pro Oven Air Fryer is painless. Most of the accessories and parts are dishwasher safe (except for the temperature probe). And you can just wipe down the cooking chamber with a warm and soapy sponge.
On the other hand, the oven exterior requires a dry cloth for cleaning.
Pro Tip: Line the baking tray with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray for easier cleaning. Be mindful of putting the small pieces in washable mesh bags to keep them intact.
See it in Action
Don’t take my word for it, here’s a short video introduction from the brand.
The Instant Omni Pro is a 14-in-1 Air Fryer Oven with 18L (19 quart) capacity. It fits a 12-inch pizza, 4 lbs chicken, or 6 slices of toast at once. Apart from air frying, it can also broil, bake, roast, dehydrate, reheat, rotisserie, toast, warm, convection oven, slow cook and proof.
What Makes the Instant Pot Omni Pro 14 in 1 Toaster Oven Better?
Despite the similar 18L (19 Quarts) capacity with the Instant Omni Plus, the Omni Pro Air Fryer is far superior than its siblings.
Here’s the thing:
I’ve already discussed these noteworthy features, so to keep things straightforward I’m listing them out to help you decide.
- Full-touch interface
- The built-in temperature probe to achieve perfect doneness
- Split cook function to take your cooking game to the next level
- More precise proofing at lower temperatures 70 to 100 °F (21 to 38 °C)
- Not just 5, but a total of 7 customizable toasting levels
