Which is better for air frying?

Both have an air fry mode in a 1.0 cu ft cavity. The Toshiba adds a 425F convection ceiling and speedy combi mode, so it is the more flexible fryer. The GE does the basic job for $81 less.

Is the Toshiba worth the extra $81?

Only if you will use the sensor, auto menus, combi mode and broil. If you mainly microwave and air fry, the GE at $199.00 covers that for less.

Which has more usable space inside?

The Toshiba. Its interior is 18.7 in wide and 11.8 in high against 13.98 in wide and 9.49 in high on the GE, so taller and wider dishes fit.

Which has more microwave power?

The GE, at 1050 W against 1000 W. The gap is small, and the Toshiba's inverter smooths output at low levels.

Neither maker publishes a lifespan figure here. Both are stainless steel countertop units, and the Toshiba's 4.2 out of 5 from 763 ratings is the only reliability signal given.
