"it has a rotisserie mode, in case you want your fries to be tumbled while cooked and a "spit" that secures your whole chicken."

"How long does it take for the plastic smell to go away? I just got one and can't handle the smell 😩 ... Right? It's so bad and the plastic smell gets into the food. ... I did that and it still stinks 😂 I just use it for reheating food now since I don't have a microwave lol the taste is less noticeable though"

I hated my first air fryer bc of a bad design and low capacity. But I absolutely love this one https://a.co/d/5cjufk4 I use it for everything. Everything tastes better crunchy . It cooks chicken pieces very moist .
r/BuyItForLife • Best Air Fryers to Buy? ->I have the 6Q and love the capacity, but they also have an 8Q option https://a.co/d/gJ5yV3V I buy oven liners and cut up one for the air fryer. https://a.co/d/0oPklUa I also sometimes use parchment, but you can't leave it inside without food
r/airfryer • HELP- what is the best air fryer for a family of 4? ->Exactly $100 and 5* or more in my case . Huge capacity and easy to use https://a.co/d/3OHV3M4
r/airfryer • Looking to get an air fryer. I live in the USA. Budget is under $100. recommendations? ->I bought a Instant Vortex Plus ClearCook 5,7L Airfryer last year. Very happy with it, was the best according to https://www.seriouseats.com/best-air-fryer-6824732.
r/belgium • Looking for Christmas Gift Advice: Air Fryer Suggestions for €150 Budget ->America Test Kitchen made a review. They recommended the instant vortex clear 6 liter. I bought one and also recommend, but it's my first so i have no comparison.
r/BuyItForLife • Best Air Fryers to Buy? ->I ordered it yesterday! Thank you for help!
r/airfryer • Yet another which air fryer to buy post ->With glass or without? Any idea why the one with glass is cheaper?
r/airfryer • Yet another which air fryer to buy post ->Ended up getting that.
r/airfryer • Yet another which air fryer to buy post ->Thanks I went to Aldi, Kmart, Target, JB Hi-Fi, Spotlight and The Good Guys yesterday. Checked out at least 10 different brands and models. But ended up buying an Instant Pot Vortex Plus ClearCook model from Myer after reading deals on Ozbargain.
r/australian • kmart airfryer ->I bought the Vortex clear 6qt Instant Pot about two months ago, and it is significantly better than the 5 year old Cosori it replaces, it cooks more evenly it is much quieter and the window is actually useful for keeping an eye on my food, I highly recommend it.
r/airfryer • Yet another which air fryer to buy post ->I haven’t that much Air Fryer experience but I’m very happy with the 6 qt Instant Vortex Plus. I hardly use my oven anymore.
r/AirFryers • Moving: Need Air Fryer Recommendations 🕺💃 ->1. For basket fryers cleaning the basket is going to be the same everywhere. Remove the grill and clean both separately. The only difference is whether the basket/grill are non-stick or dishwasher safe. 2. Parchment paper defeats air flow and therefore the purpose of an air fryer. In addition for foods which give off a lot of fat, such as chicken legs, the food would be lying in a pool of fat on the parchment paper. You want the fat to drain in order to crisp the food. 3. Top reviewed is Instant Pot Vortex Plus 6QT. Not the most robust unit out there. Support and parts can be problematic. The unit will likely last as long as the non-stick coating does. Non-stick coatings or all cookware has a limited life.
r/AirFryers • Moving: Need Air Fryer Recommendations 🕺💃 ->I have it and the basket is falling apart. I use the heck out of it. Love it other than I wish the basket held up better.
r/AmericasTestKitchen • Best air fryer ->can't go wrong with an instant vortex
r/airfryer • What is the best air fryer or brand? ->I recommend the Instant Pot Vortex Plus 6QT XL Air Fryer 🤷♂️
r/airfryer • New Air Fryer Recommendations ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
