This air fryer craze has become monolithic. It's genuinely, actually, verifiably insane how fast these appliances seem to have proliferated across basically every single kitchen in the U.S. and beyond.For some time, I viewed myself as a 'true' culinarian. Far above the common air fryer existing in my perfectly structured kitchen. "It's just a miniature oven!" I would tell people, incredulous as to why they would relinquish a Benjamin from their pockets to our Amazonian overlords. "Everything you can do in an air fryer, you can just do in your normal oven." I told them. I told myself this as well. My nativity makes me feel sick now.I am in agreeable with my former self, and the snobs that refuse to accept the air fryers culinary dominance for convenience. It IS just a tiny oven that lives on your countertop. A tiny convection oven. That is in fact, the exact point. It's meant to be small. Small means less volume of air to heat up in order to preheat and cook your food. Small means less electricity used for the same portion of food. Small means fast. Sure, you can't make a whole thanksgiving dinner in this thing, but in today's day and age we all don't socialize but three times a year, so heating up your whole oven 6 nights out of the week just for some Dino nuggets is becoming more and more wasteful now that I think about it.I also agree that the term 'air fryer' is silly. I'm going to call my pot of boiling water a 'water fryer', and my fridge an anti-air-fryer. The definition of 'frying' is to cook something in hot fat or oil. While your air fryer may not cook something 'in oil' your food typically contains enough oil on its surface to impart some of that crispiness on its own, sans the big tank of oil needed for 'deep frying'. I'll let it slide, cause otherwise I don't think I'd know what to call it either, cause "Miniature Countertop Convection Oven" sounds bad.In regards to this particular air fryer. It's the best. The convenience in day to day life is literally unmatched. My normal oven takes about 15 minutes to preheat. This air fryer can cook my food from frozen until done in that amount of time. Pizzas come out crispy. Dino Nuggets with a 'not-completely-unlike-fried' flavor to them. Salmon can be baked so hot and so quickly that the center still remains a nice soft pink instead of being blasted pale all the way through like my normal oven would. On the internet you'll find all sorts of dumb esoteric recipes to try to justify to the non-believer like my former self that buying one of these will 'totally get you to make an air fryer cheesecake', but the reality of it is, you don't need any of that fluff. I, like many red blooded Americans am not ashamed to say I eat leftovers. This reheats 90% of leftovers without any hassle, in about 3x of the microwave, but with 200% better results. If leftover pizza takes 1 minute in the microwave, I can have a slice done in about 3 minutes with this air fryer, and it yields significantly crispier crust.As for the little do-dads that come with this air fryer, you might as well toss them. The little basket is kinda funny to toss a bunch of Dino nuggets into to watch duke it out for 5 minutes as they rock-em-sock-em dinosaurs inside of the countertop oven, but other than that there isn't much use to it. The full size chicken rotisserie is the same, seeing how a rotisserie chicken from any grocery store is like $6 and reheats better on the flat trays that are provided than the spit attachment.All in all, this air fryer is a tank. Soaking up damage from my leftover ribs, burgers, broccolini, popcorn chicken, and whatever other nonsense I toss at it for the better part of 3 years now. It's durable, it looks pretty clean with the 90 degree angles, and I'd say it's well worth the money.

Love the glass door, the various cooking features and it has a light!! Bake, broil, air fryer and dehydrated in 1! Plus, excellent value and easy to use!!!

I cannot be able to articulate how much I love this air fryer. Its capacity is wonderful. I love that. It’s like using a mini oven instead of a basket like many air fryers. I can cook anything from steak, to hamburgers to french fries it doesn’t matter. I can cook aI cannot be able to articulate how much I love this air fryer. It’s capacity is wonderful. I love that. It’s like using a mini oven instead of a basket like many air fryers. I can cook anything from steak, to hamburgers to french fries it doesn’t matter. I can cook a full meal for three at one time. It does not take up a lot of space on my counter and is so easy to clean.

As the owner of other Instant brand products and a large (non Instant) air fryer, I thought I’d buy this solely for the rotisserie feature.Surprised by how small the oven is.The basket, should you use it, is a little awkward.The control buttons are temperamental, needing the surface membrane to be pressed at a very precise location. A tad frustrating.Be sure to leave a decent area around the device for hot air to properly dissipate. I thought I did but a nearby blender on the countertop was extremely hot from the exhaust and I have concerns about fire safety for anyone not paying attention to this.Now, the pluses. This is an extremely well built device. It cooks perfectly and does many functions I was unaware of.It’s amazingly easy to clean.I wish that a detailed user guide/manual was included.If you’re a fan of the Instant brand of appliances you will welcome this as an addition to your kitchen arsenal.I was unsure if I liked it or not, but after my wife made me the best fries I had in a long time using this, I am glad we have this addition.Bottom line: it’s got its quirks, but its qualities overcome them.This is not some piece of junk Walmart toy oven that will stay in service for a couple of years before it’s junk.This is a professional grade appliance you will use often.It’s worth the money.

This is my 2nd time ordering this. I got one 4 years ago, I loved it. There was a smell but it wasn't as bad as some describe, it's a light subtle smell that didn't bother us. I loved making jerky for my dog. I really enjoyed the rotisserie, but just know it can get tricky and will get easier with practice. I left my marriage 2 years ago, I took my instant pot max and left him the air fryer. I have tried other versions, but I'm not satisfied. I don't care for the air fryer baskets. This is very large, I am in an rv now and have a small amazon storage shed for kitchen overflow such as this. It is worth the purchase.
