  • Works great.
Size: 4QT Style: Stainless Steel
I'm really enjoying the fries and onion rings cooked to perfection. It preheats to 400 degrees in <2 minutes. It's super easy interface is less complex than a microwave. It's low profile fits on my very limited counterspace. Best of all it's extremely easy to clean the basket with warm soapy water. The timer tends to chime to turn food about 2/3rds of the way through cooking and not at 1/2 time. For example around 3-4 minutes on a 10 minute timer. ... show more

  • 4 QT is a perfect size for 2 people
Size: 4QT Style: Stainless Steel
This air fryer is absolutely perfect and has quickly become a staple in my kitchen. It’s incredibly versatile and handles everything from reheating leftovers to preparing homemade dishes with ease. I love using it for oil-free cooking—it makes amazing fries that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, all without the need for deep frying. It’s also great for baking and even making pizza. When cooking pizza, I just flip it halfway through to ensure even crisping, and it always comes out delicious. The 4QT size is ideal for me and my husband. It’s compact enough to sit comfortably on our countertop without taking up too much space, but it still has enough capacity for our meals. That said, if you’re cooking for a larger family or preparing bigger portions regularly, you might want to go for a bigger model. The customizable program options and 6-in-1 functions make it super user-friendly. Whether you’re air frying, baking, roasting, reheating, or broiling, this appliance delivers consistent and reliable results every time. Plus, the cleanup is a breeze—the basket and tray are easy to remove and clean, which is a huge plus after a busy day. Overall, I can’t recommend it enough. It’s a fantastic choice for anyone looking to cook healthier meals, save time, and still enjoy all the crispy goodness of fried foods without the oil. A must-have for any modern kitchen! ... show more

  • Why didnt I buy one of these things sooner??
Size: 6QT Style: Stainless Steel
I have had this for about ten days now and made five items. I dont usually leave reviews but thought I would for this air fryer. Its pretty great as far as I am concerned. Pro and Cons. Let me start with the cons. CONS 1. Complaints about plastic smell. Not really a con for me but I see others complaining so I will mention it. I had no problem. I ran the machine through several air fry cycles (400 degrees for 15 minutes) before I cooked any food and noticed the oft complained about plastic smell the first time. It then decreased each time I ran it through another cycle until I could barely notice it. Some reviews say to remove the silicon food grade tabs on the grate insert but note that the grate will then easily fall out when you try to empty the pan by tipping it over. It might eventually fall out with the tabs in place but I used a tongs to prevent the grate from falling out any time I tipped the pan over to empty it. 2. My big complaint is the instructions. They are sparse. It took me awhile to realize I can pull out the pan anytime I want to flip my food and the machine will simply start where it left off when the pan is replaced. If you already flipped your food you can just leave the machine be for the ten seconds it tells you to flip your food and resumes air frying. My learning consisted of trial and error (still doing that learning cook times and when to flip the food) and looking at air fryer demonstration videos and recipes online. The intstant website appears to have no recipes for the air fryer and the recipe page only has recipes for their insta pot. PROS The food!! From left to right I first did french fries then chicken thighs, steak, fish and grilled ham and cheese. FRENCH FRIES - Came out crispy and delicious. The picture is actually my second batch. The first batch went in, then I realized the machine was preheating. I just left the fries in. The machine then went to its 15 minute standard time at 400 degrees. The fries were OK but some were overcooked probably due to going in during the preheat cycle. The second batch went in after the machine preheated and used 12 minutes (after I learned how to adjust the time). This batch was much much improved. I used store bought frozen fries which seem to work really well. For fresh potatoes I learned I had to soak the fries first in water to get rid of some of the starch and dry them with paper towels otherwise the fries didnt turn out as crispy as the store bought frozen fries. My only slight complaint is the cooking grate would eventually fall out when I tipped the pan over to empty the fries onto a plate. I learned to hold the grate with tongs to keep it from falling out. Chicken - I love fried chicken so this was the real test. I made four bone in thighs. Two were egg wash and then panko bread crumbs (on the left of the picture) and two (on the right of the picture) were eggwash and seasoned flour. All four thighs were sprayed with cooking oil (PAM). I learned this is a must to get a good fry. As you can see some of the panko came off during the cook from the fan. The panko also tended to burn. Many recipes use panko so the food gets crispy but for me it was just OK. On the other hand the chicken with the eggwash and then flour was GREAT. Crispy, juicy, as good as when I deep fry with oil. STEAK - This is my go to method of making a steak when its too cold outside to grill. It took me awhile to get the time down but the steak turned out really good. I used the broil cycle at 380 degrees. I used an instant read thermometer to get a perfect medium-medium well of 140 inside. I first had the steak on 17 minutes (flipped half way) but it the internal temp was only 120. I then did another 5 minutes. The steak was juicy and perfectly cooked for me. FISH - This was my one "Its OK" dish that I have work on. I did cod loins at 400 degrees air fry for 8 minutes (flipping half way). I used eggwash and seasoned flour with a spray of cooking oil. The coating wasnt as crispy when I deep fried with oil. Next time I will try increasing the time to see if that improves it. I didnt want to overcook the fish which it wasnt. GRILLED HAM AND CHEESE - This was the last item prepared. It was probably one of the best grilled sandwiches I have had in a long time. Crispy on the outside with hot gooey cheese and ham on the inside. My go to way to make a grilled cheese from now on. I buttered the outside of the bread and put the machine 6 minutes on air fry at 400 flipping halfway. Like the french fries, the picture was my second sandwich. The first I had at 8 minutes and that was too long, the sandwich was overcooked. But when I got the time down it made a GREAT grilled ham and cheese. Easy to clean. I just washed the grate in warm soapy water and wiped the pan out with a paper towel after each use. So that its. I hope this helps other people looking at this machine or other air fryers. I am happy with mine so far. Its just a matter of trial and error until you learn the temps and cooking times that work for you. ... show more

  • New favorite appliance
Size: 6QT Style: Stainless Steel
We have made a few recipes and so far it's very easy to cook with and clean up. The cooking basket and tray clean easily. It's simple to learn how to use and there are a lot of recipes written up in books and blogs. The basket fits the common recipe sizes. For example, we tried a chicken tenderloin recipe that called for 1 lb of chicken tenderloins (about 8 strips and they fit just fine in the basket). We split up our fries into two batches though because we wanted a lot of fries. This is easily worth the investment and makes it easy to try new recipes that would otherwise be a bit risky for me as a fumbly and clumsy home "chef." ... show more

  • It works well, but has some annoying quirks
Size: 4QT Style: Stainless Steel
The annoyances (at least to me) are: 1) The display never turns off after use. It goes into a standby mode after a while, and the display dims, but continues to display the word OFF. This is unnecessary and distracting. 2) the beeper is very persistent. It alerts you when the unit is ready for food to be added, when you should turn the food, and when cooking is done. This is done with several loud beeps, and the beeping continues even after the basket has been pulled out. It knows that the basket has been removed (the display changes to OPEN), so why keep beeping? 3) the basket latches in very tightly. I have to hold the unit in place with one hand and pull the basket out with the other, otherwise I'll just drag the unit forward across the counter. Having said all that, it does a good job of cooking, and the removable tray in the basket makes it very easy to clean. It did take a long time (8 to 10 uses) for the 'hot plastic' smell to go away when it was in use, however. ... show more
