I recommend you join air fryer groups if you're on Facebook. I've seen articles online with recipes for bread in the AF and I've watched a video tutorial on cooking a whole chicken in the AF. It was probably a 4 pounder but it was a good fit in the drawer type. Best of all, it was crispy and juicy.
"Naked" chicken wings "fry" amazingly well. Breaded items made for the oven (orida fries, etc) also work really well. Restaurant supply items for the deep fryer can be hit or miss.
It is more quantity that will get you in trouble, than the food. Have to have enough space around the food for airflow. Other than that, almost anything that can be Fried, or, Baked in an oven, that is not a desert or desert like item, can be made in a Air Fryer. Some desert like items can be done in an Air Fryer, just need to experiment with times and temps. Rule of thumb, 25 degrees less and 2/3's the time to start, then add more time if needed. Same with a convection oven as far as that goes.
Anything you would bake or roast is awesome in the air fryer. You just have to play around with temp and time. I don’t recommend quesadillas in the air fryer. They are too light and the fan blows them around . 😂
@@Sandiastef you can weight them down with a little rack. I got a rack for my air fryer so I could stack things - I mostly use it to keep thin or light stuff like bacon or tortillas from flying around.
I bough the InstantPot Air fryer based on this review and have no regrets. I'm usually cooking for 2 people and it really has changed my food game. I cook much more food at home and it never disappoints with how much it can do.
I bought the instant vortex plus based on your previous review. We could not be more pleased! We purchased a second one so we can do potatoes in one while doing our protein in the other! We have a window in our model and light inside to check the food without opening drawer. Very helpful as there is a definite learning curve with the airfryer! Also love how it tells you when to add food and turn over food. I agree this model is 👍!
@@lorigwynne7779 i purchased 1st one at Bed Bath and Beyond and second one thru Amazon as BB&B was out at the time. Both places were same price. Hope this helps. Still enjoying using them both!👍
I did a lot of research, thought the Vortex looked great, but chose the Ninja XL because it is the only air fryer with a ceramic rather than a teflon coating. I feel the ceramic is safer. The Vortex indicates that it is PFOA free, but does not address PFTE which is what teflon is made of. It may be quite safe if not overheated but I feel more comfortable with the Ninja and it performs really well, really enjoying it. (Because the basket is rounded it has a slightly smaller cooking space but is plenty big enough for at least 2 people).
I've had a go wise for over 3 years. I've bought one replacement basket for under 20 bucks when the first one started getting the non stick chip off. that thing gets used multiple times a day and it's never failed us to cook things well.
We've had our Elite (a/k/a "The Deathstar") for over a year, and it has been a spectacular success. So despite it being a 2-person capacity, flip-top model, we're not changing it out anytime soon!
Bought it 2/9/22 based on ATK recommendation and LOVE IT! It does everything it promises and is a breeze to clean. Only air vents are on the back and doesn't heat up kitchen. Highly recommended. Glad I didn't go with the rotisserie model since the grease from a chicken gets everywhere and is a pain to clean plus, if the fat drips on the heating element the unit will start to smoke.
I bought the Instant Vortex Plus Air Fryer based on ATK recommendation and I love the air fryer, it works great and easy cleanup. I only have two issues with it... 1st - the preheat can not be turned off, if you you cook something and it finishes the cycle then you decide it needs another couple minutes it goes through the preheat cycle again, and apparently this is a timed cycle and not based on temperature, so that's annoying and inconvenient. 2nd - when you pour your food out into a bowl or plate the tray in the bottom falls out making a mess, you have to make sure you use something to hold it in place while you empty the fryer, again annoying and inconvenient. Other than that it works great!
I have the Instant Vortex 4qt size. Best kitchen gadget I've ever used and kept! Bit of a learning curve to not overcook things. I recommend using a food thermometer for meats. This is the second one I've owned. I prefer the square basket design over the round. Great to use during our long TX summers!
This is the make and model I bought right before Christmas 2021 and I LOVE it! My friends have been bragging on how wonderful Air Fryers are so I am really glad I got this Air Fryer. I have some friends who have other AF and they are not as enthusiastic about using it. I LOVE MY AIR FRYER; Instant Vortex 6 quart!!!!
I bought that Instant Airfryer immediately after your comparison video with toaster ovens. It’s perfect for my ketogenic diet; I love it and have been using it for steaks, burgers, chicken thighs and more!👍
I eat a Ketovore diet and I’ve been struggling to find a reason to purchase either an air fryer or instapot. I use my sous vide, grill, and frying pan for 99% of everything I eat.
@@MikeKilo1969 Same here Mike! We don't do potatoes or bread crumbs on ketovore. It would be nice if an air fryer could sear a steak, but we know you need a grill or a pan for that...
@@rfbead321 I actually repurposed a pizza oven called the Uuni Pro, it gets up to 700+ degrees. I sous vide seven steaks on Sunday and then sear them each night for dinner. Works great!
I bought several of the Instant Pot Vortex air fryers for gifts and one for my home. We love it. I have other brands of airfryers too. I like the Ninja grill with the grate and thermometer for cooing meat. It leaves grill marks and so far everything tasted very good. The lid lifts up on this one so it's easier to clean. The Instant Pot Vortex is my favorite.
I pushed off purchasing an air fryer for a long time because I figured it would just be another appliance sitting on the counter taking up space, or sitting in a cabinet and never used. Against my better judgment, I purchased a Cosari air fryer last month. Along with everything else that I have been cooking with it, I seem to be eating my words that I said! This appliance is a workhorse and has became my go-to method of cooking for most meals for my wife and myself. Last night we had strip steak, baked potato, and asparagus.
God, thank you. I’ve been watching air frier videos forever now & everyone else seems to be pushing one or another in a way that feels fake and sponsored. Your videos give the “real feel” with solid reasoning. You have my appreciation and I’m stoked to see the rest of your content :).
I did my research almost three years ago and purchased a Corosi 5.8 Quart Air Fryer. Couldn't be more happy. Does great and can also roast (fry?) a 5.5+ pound whole chicken in less than 50 minutes. Yeah, after 25 minutes I use my tongs to turn the bird over to roast the back side for 10-15 minutes until internal temp reaches 160 and then flip it over again, breast side up for an additional 10-15 minutes. Add your BBQ sauce if desired. It also does a host of other meals, fries, fish, chops, homemade pizza, etc. Quiet, easy controls and doesn't give off a lot of heat.
I have had the Cosori 5.8QT for a few years now and I love it.. When the non stick started to come up, I sent an email to Cosori and they sent me out a new basket. Haven't had an issue since..
We actually have both of your top choices. We find that having 1 for the main dish/protein and 1 for the side works really well. Our oven is now mostly for storage, but we use it to meal prep on the weekend. Having all 3 options cuts an all-day endeavor into just 3 hours. We basically put on a movie or two and prep while we watch. MUCH less daunting!
I've been buying I-Pot appliances since they first came out; I have the big Duo Crisp (seldom use it because of the bulky, heavy frying lid) and the Mini sits on my counter in red. BTW I've washed the trivet and the basket dozens of times in my dishwasher and it looks like new, no wear, no plastic discoloration at all. Use top or bottom rack. The cheap Dash I had flaked off the nonstick and rusted, a second one did the same thing. I just ordered this model of their air fryer 'cause I want the dehydrate function. I own the Breville Smart Air oven, never use the air fryer function because it's a pain in the a** to try and keep clean, and that dehydrate is lousy. Thanks to our beautiful Lisa for a great video!
With the exception of my stand mixer (I make a LOT of bread, way cheaper than buying it in Canada due to corrupt grocers price-fixing bread of all things) I agree 100%
Have the Vortex--love it! Luckily, I didn't have the smell some people talk about. I washed the basket and grate and did the test run, per the manual. There was a VERY slight smell at the cook stage of the test cycle, but then disappeared. No smell since.
I purchased your winner a couple of months ago after having a much smaller model. I absolutely love it! Everything has turned out great and it's a breeze to clean.
this is the model I have, it is great in cooking for one, does awesome job on frozen fries, cooks chicken very well. it takes some experimenting with cooking times.
We just got the Instant Vortex Mini. The tray is bigger than you expect. We were able to cook 4 pieces of beer batter fish at one time. That was really unexpected considering it's a mini.
I love air fryers, especially the "bucket" style because they contain the mess inside the completely dishwasher-safe, washable container. In my experience, even the less expensive models do a fine job, and by that, I mean as little as $40 up to about $70 for a 7-qt model with enough interior space for up to a 6-1/2 pound whole chicken. I just got a Gourmia GAF798 on sale at Costco for $40. It did a fine job and has all the feautures one could want or need. Nothing omitted of which I am aware. These things are a game changer in the kitchen as ATK points out. Thank you for your informative reviews here and on PBS.
I just got a Ninja 2 quart air fryer and my husband and I love it! It's perfect for 2 to 4 people! It's very easy to use and pre heats in 2 to 3 minutes! We are very happy with it!
Our experience with that recommended air fryer (Instant Vortex Plus 6qt 7-in-1) was terrible, unfortunately. No matter what we did and every remedy under the sun, we couldn’t get the plastic smell to go away. Weeks and weeks. This is a risk with every air fryer, but we ended up returning it and getting the Cosori Air Fryer Max XL. Far better experience and I would highly recommend it!
I have a 5 qt. Vortex xl air fryer that I got for a song from a sale at bed bath beyond. I never had any plastic smell so maybe you got a lemon. I bought the parchment liners and they are a godsend
I bought a Ninja Foodi 5 in 1 Grill + Air Crisper. It grills and broils, with a heavy ceramic coated cast steel grill. It bakes, air fries and can even be used as a dehydrator. It gets nearly daily use as it's very easy to use, preheats to 210 Celsius (400 f) in 2 minutes, and clean and does it's job reliably to perfection. It's perfect for cooking meals for 1 or 2 people. It cooks 2 massive fish or beef steaks or 4 chicken breasts to perfection. One of the lowest profile convection oven/air fryers and that means you can store it inside a small kitchen cabinet. If you life in a tiny place but want quality results, the Ninja 5 in 1 Foodi grill is for your small apartment kitchen. Got mine on sale marked down for $210 Canadian at Canadian Tire.
I bought the 7qt Gourmia at Costco and I love the thing after about 6 weeks of use. I use it more than I ever expected. It's my first one as I didn't want one more appliance but I'm finding it worth the footprint. Like most small appliances, the instruction manual is limited. Forget it and just go on line to find recipes. Basket inside is a roomy 9 1/4" square, non-stick and very easy to clean. Was $50 during winter holidays.
I was on the fence about it but now it's on sale for $39 @ Costco. Amazon had bad reviews but they have a great return policy. Have you had any problems with it ?
@@pamelahuelfer8691 I still love it and have had no problems. I found the same model that Costco carries on Amazon and have to disagree with the negative reviews. I expected the plastic odor but had that only for the first use. I use only the 'air fry' setting and you CAN turn off the preheat which someone complained about. It's not 100% intuitive but it's not complicated. Some people don't read instructions and may be frustrated. I recommend buying it while it's $39 at Costco and you can return it used if you're not happy with it. Costco's frozen mahi mahi works beautifully for 'grilled' fish tacos in the air fryer (EatingWell) and the sockeye salmon comes out great, too. They have a large jug of avocado oil which is recommended for high heat use. I bought the Mistifi sprayer on Amazon which is better than many. I could go on and on - home made egg rolls, corn flake chicken nuggets. It's really expanded my meal plans. Good luck!
Best Buy has 2 Insignia models with the same shell as the Instant one recommended in the video, one with dials and one with digital display. The latter is currently $30 cheaper than the Instant one, plus the basket has a neat way of coming apart to dump the tray out (because of this, the capacity is listed as 5 qt while the Instant one is 6, but it's worth it and you won't notice size difference anyway). It's pretty obvious they come from the same factory, so don't bother paying way more for the name brand.
I agree with you. Picked up my first Insignia for $30 during the holidays of 2020. Loved it so much, I bought my second one this year! use them both everyday …Go Insignia 👍🏼
Insignia is great in terms of cooking and performance. But the tephlon is fragile and started flaking off after a year. And i babied the basket when washing. Never in dishwasher. Used soft sponges and soaked it to limit scrubbing.
THANK YOU, ATK! I've been skeptical about these appliances, that is, which is the best product per our needs to support (another) product / appliance purchase - I've been looking at many for years. HOWEVER, because of ATK's especially informative product review, I am now the proud owner of the Instant Vortex Plus 6 qt (and the related, specific accessories)! The unit's 6 qt single-wide cooking basket is the deal sealer! (I own the larger Breville Smart Oven Pro, a truly awesome appliance; but I wanted something 'even more' efficient than it! This IVP-6 is it! Proof: Tater Tots in BSOP = 25 mins.; however, Tater Tots in IVP-6 = 5 mins.!) Helpful Reminder (because I care): Never, Ever USE METAL utensils, of any type, on any non-stick cookware, EVER!
I need to buy this for my neighbor the instant pot air fryer. She keeps setting off the building smoke detector when she cooks on her range and oven. I have one and have never regretted it and most of all have not set off the smoke detector. I have recommended this to others here and they say it is a game changer for them. I tell them to under cook and then add time if needed which by the way you can add more time while it is running. If it is done before the time goes off then simply leave the drawer out and the unit will shut down shortly.
bought the instant pot vortex air fryer per your recommendation and it does deliver! :) it's so powerful! the only annoying this is that it ALWAYS preheats, but i'm too lazy, so my workaround is that i just put my food in immediately anyway.
One of the reasons I bought this was so I didn't have to heat up the oven for everything. I can finish cooking or heating something in this before my oven preheats, & what an energy savings not to heat up the oven if you don't have to.
I have the winner air fryer and I do love it: it is consistent and most of the time cooks evenly. I think the key is to make sure the food is spread evenly -- and not over loaded -- and cut properly. I find the edges cook faster than foods in the center -- so, basically, like a regular oven. ETA: one thing I hated was the AWFUL smell of it for weeks. It made me feel it was leaching toxic chemicals into my food and air. It finally faded, but that was...disturbing.
Brilliant! Just what I needed to hear. Thanks for the excellent review. I was very sceptical about air fryers, but since times are changing for the worse where we have to cut down on heating and electricity, I thought it’d be best to purchase an air fryer, as it uses way less power than ovens or stoves.
We’ve had both styles and preferred “oven” style. I haven’t noticed food not heating evenly. As for needing an oven mitt, we store ours in a drawer below the oven, so that’s not an issue.
We bought a GoWise 5.8. Just a bit bigger than what’s featured here, makes enough food at one time, square basket not round. Easy to use and clean. $67 on Amazon. Wish we would have bought it earlier. 😁
Now you're all getting me confused by praising all the DIFFERENT air fryers which you bought, use and love. Drat. But thanks for sharing anyway. :-) 👍 🇬🇧
I agree the drawer type is the best but you didn't compare any of them. I bought a Cosori three months ago. Best kitchen appliance for heating food I've ever purchased. Comparison of the top 10 drawer type air fryers would be nice.
Purchased the Instant Vortex plus air fryer based on your review. I wanted to like it had everything I wanted. But unfortunately the burning plastic smell would not go away and was strong. I tried everything possible to rid the smell but no luck. After researching this Instant air fryer seems to be an issue so I returned it.
I have a Dreo 6.8 qt air fryer. It holds 4 medium size russets, at least 8 slices of thick cut bacon, 5 moderate size, thighs, and so on. If you put it on the steak setting (grilling) it goes to 450 degrees. Of course you can cook anything at 450, not just steak. Beautiful job with mushrooms, salmon fillets, etc. It's got a window and a light so can check your food without opening the drawer. I never see anyone reviewing this product. I love mine.
I saw this online Walmart, reviewer said it was A+ and they have an extended warranty. Customer also noted that their customer service was excellent. I have been on their website. Apparently they have two sizes. I really like the square vrs. round shape. Glad to hear your experience has been good. I need to make up my mind. DREO BRAND, comment****
@@ggbice Cosari gets all the hype, but ppl have issues with the handle breaking and the screws in the basket. Many ppl have said they've fallen into the food in the basket and they have to pick them out. Someone said they got one in a bite and nearly broke a tooth. Kind of a choking hazard, esp for children. A review somewhere on RUclips stated you have to tighten the screws every so often. Doesn't inspire confidence. But it's #1 pretty much everywhere.
We also bought the Dreo Pro Max instead of the Instant and love it. Having the window is great and its large enough to warm out dinner plates. Cooks far better than our previous two air fryers.
Each to own preferences, I use oven style from Costco. It works better than pot style and much easier to clean by putting aluminum foil on the drip tray. Most of all i prefer the oven style because I can see the doneness.
I guess it depends on what you’re looking for cause I actually am very happy with my oven style model which is very similar to the Instant version oven style. We wanted to replace our last toaster oven that could do rotisserie chicken so when we saw the Sur La Table oven style air fryer that could do rotisserie chicken, we got it. It does great for that and chicken wings. Despite having to switch the racks, it dots a great job of making crispy chicken wings and everything else we cooked in it.
I agree. Oven style works best for me. I feel like i can fit more on 3 racks than i could in a drawer. Not bothered with swapping trays mid cook. Food comes cooked evenly if you swap the trays around (you have to shake/swap mid cook no matter what model you choose anyway) Dont have any issues cleaning it either, and a window is a nice touch so you can see progress on your food without the need of opening the drawer. Rotisserie option is amazing too 😉 It is so much better for making cheesy toasts too, easy slide of the rack instead of digging in the deep drawers to pull them out.
@@kropka8259 The rotisserie option is my favorite feature! It rotates it so I don't even have to flip it midway! Even though it is messy when you have to swap trays - you just have to stay on top of cleaning it out. I guess that's a deal breaker for some but not for me.
I bought the recommended air fryer. Well worth the money, much better than the last one I had which was a Phillips. Easier to clean easier to use love it!
Got a gourmia on sale at costco for 40 bucks I think. Looks like it's the same size as the instant pot one they like. Seems like it works pretty well, not a big investment. They are kind of big and bulky on the counter though.
They gave that in this video - at 3:15. She said, "Air-fryer ovens - don' buy them."... And then went through all the reasons that ATK feels they don't work well.
@@sandrah7512 They are only reviewing countertop air fryers. I don't want another appliance on my countertop, or on the floor of my pantry, or in my garage. I'm looking for information about the air fryer function of a conventional range/oven - you know, the big 500 lb appliance that shoves in next to your countertops, that you can cook a 16-lb turkey in.
I have a cheap but good capacity air fryer that I got from a local big box store. I think I paid $50 or less for it. It has completely analog controls, just a knob for temperature and a knob for time, and it cooks great. No need to dump huge amounts of cash for what amounts to a fan and a heating element.
Could you include Cosori in another round of testing? They have a large capacity square model - curious how it compares to your winner! Very helpful information - always appreciate your testing and review videos.
Has ATK done a test on the Ninja air fryer? It seems like a good option when you're wanting to prepare more than one food item at a time in attempting an entire meal.
I have the Instant Vortex Mini. It’s excellent. Got it for my tiny RV but use it in the house when not camping. I’ll probably need a larger one at some point and I’ll stick with the Instant brand. Their products are excellent.
While this appliance delivers on air frying promises, I'm still holding out on ATK's favorite 6 slice bread capacity convection toaster oven. Big enough for a 9" pizza, or 4-6 piece fried chicken, even a loaf of quick bread... Why not 😀. Single people & small families usually get left out of the small appliance testing equation. So please give us a break & tell us about your favorite medium toaster convection oven. Thank you Lisa for the demo🙏
I have the Instant Pot Vortex and it works well but it emits burnt plastic smell for a few weeks and unlike the Cosori the tray falls out on your plate when you tip the drawer. I’d go with the Cosori next time or the large Gourmia 7qt that Costco has for about $55.
I love my instant vortex plus 10qt 7-1 toaster oven. It is literally a small oven. Idk what they were cooking but my vortex isn't "messy." Love the rotisserie basket for fries. Baskets give me anxiety because it is literally Schrodinger's cat, but the vortex toaster oven has the glass door so you see what your food looks like.
Costco shoppers..... I bought the Gourmia brand Air fryer for $60 2 weeks ago. It will hold 2-3 chicken breasts and for just 2 of us at home it is the right size. Everything we've cooked in it so far as come out as expected. The "fried" foods are crisp and delicious. It has been easy to use and not complicated control buttons. It has similar features of their winner and best buy. O... try frying a twinkie, you'll never eat one another way again. 400 for just 1.5 to 2 minutes depending on your level of fried. Take it out and let it sit for about a minute and the exterior is crispy while the interior is gooey and yummy!
Have you examined the Yedi Evolution Air Fryer, 6.8 Quart, Stainless Steel, with a Ceramic Cooking Basket? It not only aligns with all the criteria in your recommendations but also features a basket that is free of PFOA, BPA, lead, and cadmium.
Would have much appreciated a review of the smaller capacity fryers. I don't need to cook enough for four people. Neither do a lot of users who are students, seniors, or single people.
I have had a Ninja AF101 that I got for about $70 a few years ago, and I love the dang thing! It is such a good tool and reheats food way better than a microwave, and doesn't use as much electricity as my wall or range oven. So versatile and a necessity in a kitchen when you need convenience.
While I agree the Sur La Table airfryer shown is a slight pain to clean, the rotisserie basket made the best wings I have ever made at home. It only makes enough for one, but so would a normal air fryer. ~10-12 wings. EDIT: I'd also like to add that this model also has a basket and the handle attachment means you dont need an oven mitt to use it. Not sure why they negated to say this. I know its a short video, but don't entirely write off a style.
Please test against the best sellers on Amazon such as Cosori and Ninja. How can you ignore brands with up to 69,000 reviews for one model? (Even though most Amazon reviews are fake.)
I have the large Cuisinart toaster oven air fryer, the reason I have that one because most of them are not accessible for the blind. I am blind and I need one that accessible, most of them don’t have buttons that I can feel it’s all digital, so at least a Cuisinart has control knobs on the one I have, and I can actually use it since I live independently. I love my air fryer.
I have been wanting to get the Instant Vortex Plus but since I have seen complaints about the smell I am hesitant. Is it just hit or miss as to whether or not yours will be a stinker? Only some complain so it seems rather odd.
I completely agree with this review. We neededNOT ONE MORE appliance. And we were right. BUT we use the Airfryer EVERYDAY. It has rapidly become our go=to first cooking appliance. Even before the stove. We have the recommended Instant Pot appliance and we are just 2. But I still use it even when we are 8. Makes a beautiful roast. And collects the drippings. And cleans up like a snap. Check out the cheesecake recipe Lisa put out. It is fantastic!
I would love to see them do a video on what foods turn out well in an air fryer and what ones don't
I recommend you join air fryer groups if you're on Facebook. I've seen articles online with recipes for bread in the AF and I've watched a video tutorial on cooking a whole chicken in the AF. It was probably a 4 pounder but it was a good fit in the drawer type. Best of all, it was crispy and juicy.

Does it come with a recipe book?
I did a lot of research, thought the Vortex looked great, but chose the Ninja XL because it is the only air fryer with a ceramic rather than a teflon coating. I feel the ceramic is safer. The Vortex indicates that it is PFOA free, but does not address PFTE which is what teflon is made of. It may be quite safe if not overheated but I feel more comfortable with the Ninja and it performs really well, really enjoying it. (Because the basket is rounded it has a slightly smaller cooking space but is plenty big enough for at least 2 people).
WHat is the exact model of that Ninja?

I bought several of the Instant Pot Vortex air fryers for gifts and one for my home. We love it. I have other brands of airfryers too. I like the Ninja grill with the grate and thermometer for cooing meat. It leaves grill marks and so far everything tasted very good. The lid lifts up on this one so it's easier to clean. The Instant Pot Vortex is my favorite.
I pushed off purchasing an air fryer for a long time because I figured it would just be another appliance sitting on the counter taking up space, or sitting in a cabinet and never used. Against my better judgment, I purchased a Cosari air fryer last month. Along with everything else that I have been cooking with it, I seem to be eating my words that I said! This appliance is a workhorse and has became my go-to method of cooking for most meals for my wife and myself. Last night we had strip steak, baked potato, and asparagus.
God, thank you. I’ve been watching air frier videos forever now & everyone else seems to be pushing one or another in a way that feels fake and sponsored. Your videos give the “real feel” with solid reasoning. You have my appreciation and I’m stoked to see the rest of your content :).
I did my research almost three years ago and purchased a Corosi 5.8 Quart Air Fryer. Couldn't be more happy. Does great and can also roast (fry?) a 5.5+ pound whole chicken in less than 50 minutes. Yeah, after 25 minutes I use my tongs to turn the bird over to roast the back side for 10-15 minutes until internal temp reaches 160 and then flip it over again, breast side up for an additional 10-15 minutes. Add your BBQ sauce if desired. It also does a host of other meals, fries, fish, chops, homemade pizza, etc. Quiet, easy controls and doesn't give off a lot of heat.
I have had my instant vortex for 1 year and half could not be more happy with this air fryer.
I have had the Cosori 5.8QT for a few years now and I love it.. When the non stick started to come up, I sent an email to Cosori and they sent me out a new basket. Haven't had an issue since..
I use a bottle brush after soaking the basket and grate in dish soap with hot water. I don't scrub.
My touch panel died and I was forced to use their remote android app. I hated the app so much I just gave up.
@@sd4dfg2 so sorry to hear that man (lady?). I've had my Cosori since the summer of 2020 and have had no issues.
We actually have both of your top choices. We find that having 1 for the main dish/protein and 1 for the side works really well. Our oven is now mostly for storage, but we use it to meal prep on the weekend. Having all 3 options cuts an all-day endeavor into just 3 hours. We basically put on a movie or two and prep while we watch. MUCH less daunting!
I've been buying I-Pot appliances since they first came out; I have the big Duo Crisp (seldom use it because of the bulky, heavy frying lid) and the Mini sits on my counter in red. BTW I've washed the trivet and the basket dozens of times in my dishwasher and it looks like new, no wear, no plastic discoloration at all. Use top or bottom rack. The cheap Dash I had flaked off the nonstick and rusted, a second one did the same thing. I just ordered this model of their air fryer 'cause I want the dehydrate function. I own the Breville Smart Air oven, never use the air fryer function because it's a pain in the a** to try and keep clean, and that dehydrate is lousy. Thanks to our beautiful Lisa for a great video!
Some people laughed and called these a pandemic splurge, but my little air fryer is one of the handiest kitchen appliances I have ever owned.
I agree! I use it just as often as my stove top for cooking.
Yep!
With the exception of my stand mixer (I make a LOT of bread, way cheaper than buying it in Canada due to corrupt grocers price-fixing bread of all things) I agree 100%
better than heating up the oven for 3 or fewer people
Have the Vortex--love it! Luckily, I didn't have the smell some people talk about. I washed the basket and grate and did the test run, per the manual. There was a VERY slight smell at the cook stage of the test cycle, but then disappeared. No smell since.
I purchased your winner a couple of months ago after having a much smaller model. I absolutely love it! Everything has turned out great and it's a breeze to clean.
I bought the Ninja AF101. Looks very similar to the Instapot version. No frills. Simple, basic and easy to use and clean. Love it.
this is the model I have, it is great in cooking for one, does awesome job on frozen fries, cooks chicken very well. it takes some experimenting with cooking times.
We just got the Instant Vortex Mini. The tray is bigger than you expect. We were able to cook 4 pieces of beer batter fish at one time. That was really unexpected considering it's a mini.
I love my Vortex Mini. I had another bell shaped one and it's was the most worthless thing I've bought. But the Vortex Mini is great.
I love air fryers, especially the "bucket" style because they contain the mess inside the completely dishwasher-safe, washable container. In my experience, even the less expensive models do a fine job, and by that, I mean as little as $40 up to about $70 for a 7-qt model with enough interior space for up to a 6-1/2 pound whole chicken. I just got a Gourmia GAF798 on sale at Costco for $40. It did a fine job and has all the feautures one could want or need. Nothing omitted of which I am aware. These things are a game changer in the kitchen as ATK points out. Thank you for your informative reviews here and on PBS.
I just got a Ninja 2 quart air fryer and my husband and I love it! It's perfect for 2 to 4 people! It's very easy to use and pre heats in 2 to 3 minutes! We are very happy with it!
I love my Ninja too!
What is model #?
Our experience with that recommended air fryer (Instant Vortex Plus 6qt 7-in-1) was terrible, unfortunately. No matter what we did and every remedy under the sun, we couldn’t get the plastic smell to go away. Weeks and weeks. This is a risk with every air fryer, but we ended up returning it and getting the Cosori Air Fryer Max XL. Far better experience and I would highly recommend it!
I have a 5 qt. Vortex xl air fryer that I got for a song from a sale at bed bath beyond. I never had any plastic smell so maybe you got a lemon. I bought the parchment liners and they are a godsend
I bought a Ninja Foodi 5 in 1 Grill + Air Crisper. It grills and broils, with a heavy ceramic coated cast steel grill. It bakes, air fries and can even be used as a dehydrator. It gets nearly daily use as it's very easy to use, preheats to 210 Celsius (400 f) in 2 minutes, and clean and does it's job reliably to perfection. It's perfect for cooking meals for 1 or 2 people. It cooks 2 massive fish or beef steaks or 4 chicken breasts to perfection. One of the lowest profile convection oven/air fryers and that means you can store it inside a small kitchen cabinet. If you life in a tiny place but want quality results, the Ninja 5 in 1 Foodi grill is for your small apartment kitchen. Got mine on sale marked down for $210 Canadian at Canadian Tire.
I ordered the Instant Vortec. I love my Instant Pots, and I like that this is easy to program, and has a small footprint. Thank you.
I bought the 7qt Gourmia at Costco and I love the thing after about 6 weeks of use. I use it more than I ever expected. It's my first one as I didn't want one more appliance but I'm finding it worth the footprint. Like most small appliances, the instruction manual is limited. Forget it and just go on line to find recipes. Basket inside is a roomy 9 1/4" square, non-stick and very easy to clean. Was $50 during winter holidays.
I was on the fence about it but now it's on sale for $39 @ Costco. Amazon had bad reviews but they have a great return policy. Have you had any problems with it ?
@@pamelahuelfer8691 I still love it and have had no problems. I found the same model that Costco carries on Amazon and have to disagree with the negative reviews. I expected the plastic odor but had that only for the first use. I use only the 'air fry' setting and you CAN turn off the preheat which someone complained about. It's not 100% intuitive but it's not complicated. Some people don't read instructions and may be frustrated. I recommend buying it while it's $39 at Costco and you can return it used if you're not happy with it. Costco's frozen mahi mahi works beautifully for 'grilled' fish tacos in the air fryer (EatingWell) and the sockeye salmon comes out great, too. They have a large jug of avocado oil which is recommended for high heat use. I bought the Mistifi sprayer on Amazon which is better than many. I could go on and on - home made egg rolls, corn flake chicken nuggets. It's really expanded my meal plans. Good luck!
@@delanaby thank you so much for responding !!! Out the door to Costco it is !!
Thank you! I have been wanting to buy an air fryer, but I was intimidated by all the options available. Now I can be confident in my purchase.
Just Go For It !!! 👍🏼👍🏼
Best Buy has 2 Insignia models with the same shell as the Instant one recommended in the video, one with dials and one with digital display. The latter is currently $30 cheaper than the Instant one, plus the basket has a neat way of coming apart to dump the tray out (because of this, the capacity is listed as 5 qt while the Instant one is 6, but it's worth it and you won't notice size difference anyway). It's pretty obvious they come from the same factory, so don't bother paying way more for the name brand.
I agree with you. Picked up my first Insignia for $30 during the holidays of 2020. Loved it so much, I bought my second one this year!
use them both everyday …Go Insignia 👍🏼
Insignia is great in terms of cooking and performance. But the tephlon is fragile and started flaking off after a year. And i babied the basket when washing. Never in dishwasher. Used soft sponges and soaked it to limit scrubbing.
THANK YOU, ATK! I've been skeptical about these appliances, that is, which is the best product per our needs to support (another) product / appliance purchase - I've been looking at many for years. HOWEVER, because of ATK's especially informative product review, I am now the proud owner of the Instant Vortex Plus 6 qt (and the related, specific accessories)! The unit's 6 qt single-wide cooking basket is the deal sealer!
(I own the larger Breville Smart Oven Pro, a truly awesome appliance; but I wanted something 'even more' efficient than it! This IVP-6 is it! Proof: Tater Tots in BSOP = 25 mins.; however, Tater Tots in IVP-6 = 5 mins.!)
Helpful Reminder (because I care): Never, Ever USE METAL utensils, of any type, on any non-stick cookware, EVER!
I need to buy this for my neighbor the instant pot air fryer. She keeps setting off the building smoke detector when she cooks on her range and oven. I have one and have never regretted it and most of all have not set off the smoke detector.
I have recommended this to others here and they say it is a game changer for them. I tell them to under cook and then add time if needed which by the way you can add more time while it is running. If it is done before the time goes off then simply leave the drawer out and the unit will shut down shortly.
bought the instant pot vortex air fryer per your recommendation and it does deliver! :) it's so powerful!
the only annoying this is that it ALWAYS preheats, but i'm too lazy, so my workaround is that i just put my food in immediately anyway.
We did too based on an earlier ATK video and we love it. Still learning but very pleased so far and it was affordable.
One of the reasons I bought this was so I didn't have to heat up the oven for everything. I can finish cooking or heating something in this before my oven preheats, & what an energy savings not to heat up the oven if you don't have to.
I have the winner air fryer and I do love it: it is consistent and most of the time cooks evenly. I think the key is to make sure the food is spread evenly -- and not over loaded -- and cut properly. I find the edges cook faster than foods in the center -- so, basically, like a regular oven.
ETA: one thing I hated was the AWFUL smell of it for weeks. It made me feel it was leaching toxic chemicals into my food and air. It finally faded, but that was...disturbing.
agreed, the smell was awful, but it was gone after a 4 or 5 times using it. Maybe use it empty outside the first 4 times???
Brilliant! Just what I needed to hear. Thanks for the excellent review. I was very sceptical about air fryers, but since times are changing for the worse where we have to cut down on heating and electricity, I thought it’d be best to purchase an air fryer, as it uses way less power than ovens or stoves.
We’ve had both styles and preferred “oven” style. I haven’t noticed food not heating evenly. As for needing an oven mitt, we store ours in a drawer below the oven, so that’s not an issue.
We bought a GoWise 5.8. Just a bit bigger than what’s featured here, makes enough food at one time, square basket not round. Easy to use and clean. $67 on Amazon. Wish we would have bought it earlier. 😁
I'm leaning towards the square versus round, just seems to be better.
Now you're all getting me confused by praising all the DIFFERENT air fryers which you bought, use and love. Drat.
But thanks for sharing anyway. :-) 👍 🇬🇧
Love the way you explain pros and cons.
I agree the drawer type is the best but you didn't compare any of them. I bought a Cosori three months ago. Best kitchen appliance for heating food I've ever purchased. Comparison of the top 10 drawer type air fryers would be nice.
Purchased the Instant Vortex plus air fryer based on your review. I wanted to like it had everything I wanted. But unfortunately the burning plastic smell would not go away and was strong. I tried everything possible to rid the smell but no luck. After researching this Instant air fryer seems to be an issue so I returned it.
Super helpful tips. Now I know what to choose the best air fryer for my family. Thank you.
I have a Dreo 6.8 qt air fryer. It holds 4 medium size russets, at least 8 slices of thick cut bacon, 5 moderate size, thighs, and so on. If you put it on the steak setting (grilling) it goes to 450 degrees. Of course you can cook anything at 450, not just steak. Beautiful job with mushrooms, salmon fillets, etc. It's got a window and a light so can check your food without opening the drawer. I never see anyone reviewing this product. I love mine.
I saw this online Walmart, reviewer said it was A+ and they have an extended warranty. Customer also noted that their customer service was excellent. I have been on their website. Apparently they have two sizes.
I really like the square vrs. round shape.
Glad to hear your experience has been good. I need to make up my mind.
DREO BRAND, comment****
@@ggbice Cosari gets all the hype, but ppl have issues with the handle breaking and the screws in the basket. Many ppl have said they've fallen into the food in the basket and they have to pick them out. Someone said they got one in a bite and nearly broke a tooth. Kind of a choking hazard, esp for children. A review somewhere on RUclips stated you have to tighten the screws every so often. Doesn't inspire confidence. But it's #1 pretty much everywhere.
We also bought the Dreo Pro Max instead of the Instant and love it. Having the window is great and its large enough to warm out dinner plates. Cooks far better than our previous two air fryers.
Each to own preferences, I use oven style from Costco. It works better than pot style and much easier to clean by putting aluminum foil on the drip tray. Most of all i prefer the oven style because I can see the doneness.
Love my instant vortex air fryer. Plan on getting another one, they deliver. It's my baby more than my stove is.
I guess it depends on what you’re looking for cause I actually am very happy with my oven style model which is very similar to the Instant version oven style. We wanted to replace our last toaster oven that could do rotisserie chicken so when we saw the Sur La Table oven style air fryer that could do rotisserie chicken, we got it. It does great for that and chicken wings. Despite having to switch the racks, it dots a great job of making crispy chicken wings and everything else we cooked in it.
I agree. Oven style works best for me. I feel like i can fit more on 3 racks than i could in a drawer. Not bothered with swapping trays mid cook. Food comes cooked evenly if you swap the trays around (you have to shake/swap mid cook no matter what model you choose anyway)
Dont have any issues cleaning it either, and a window is a nice touch so you can see progress on your food without the need of opening the drawer.
Rotisserie option is amazing too 😉
It is so much better for making cheesy toasts too, easy slide of the rack instead of digging in the deep drawers to pull them out.
@@kropka8259 The rotisserie option is my favorite feature! It rotates it so I don't even have to flip it midway!
Even though it is messy when you have to swap trays - you just have to stay on top of cleaning it out. I guess that's a deal breaker for some but not for me.
@@SaphStitched nothing better than a rotisserie chicken for dinner :))))
I would love to see a list of all models tested.
This was very illuminating, issues I had not considered before. Thanks! You really helped me make up my mind as to what I should buy!
Sounds like a lot of good advice here, thanks.
This is an honest review, I have an oven air fryer and sometimes it pieces me off. The only thing is does better is roasting peanuts.
I bought the recommended air fryer. Well worth the money, much better than the last one I had which was a Phillips. Easier to clean easier to use love it!
Had a Nuwave Oven for years...recently purchased an air fryer. The air fryer is an upgraded Nuwave.
Yep, I wrapped up my Nuwave Oven and put it in the garage after using this Instant Airfryer the first time.😊
Got a gourmia on sale at costco for 40 bucks I think. Looks like it's the same size as the instant pot one they like. Seems like it works pretty well, not a big investment. They are kind of big and bulky on the counter though.
Since many new ovens now incorporate air fryers, it would be great to have a video on this function
They gave that in this video - at 3:15. She said, "Air-fryer ovens - don' buy them."... And then went through all the reasons that ATK feels they don't work well.
@@suzannes5888 she’s talking about oven-style air fryers that sit on the countertop. I’m talking about an actual oven.
@@sandrah7512 They are only reviewing countertop air fryers. I don't want another appliance on my countertop, or on the floor of my pantry, or in my garage. I'm looking for information about the air fryer function of a conventional range/oven - you know, the big 500 lb appliance that shoves in next to your countertops, that you can cook a 16-lb turkey in.
@@sandrah7512 actually I was very specific
@@sandrah7512 give it a rest. You don’t read carefully, so stop doubling down on your mistakes.
I have a cheap but good capacity air fryer that I got from a local big box store. I think I paid $50 or less for it. It has completely analog controls, just a knob for temperature and a knob for time, and it cooks great. No need to dump huge amounts of cash for what amounts to a fan and a heating element.
Correct
Cosori for me, perfect size and easy to clean
Could you include Cosori in another round of testing? They have a large capacity square model - curious how it compares to your winner! Very helpful information - always appreciate your testing and review videos.
Has ATK done a test on the Ninja air fryer? It seems like a good option when you're wanting to prepare more than one food item at a time in attempting an entire meal.
Watch the QUEEN OF AIR FRYERS- FABULOUSLY FRUGAL she goes from Air Fryer 101 to best n worst recipes. She's outstanding!!!
She uses a Cosori, which they didn’t test in this video. I wonder why? They are very common.
Very much appreciate the review! Just ordered mine through the link 🥰
Thanks Lisa, appreciate the tips on air fryers.
Thanks for the recommendation, my Vortex is ordered
I have the Instant Vortex Mini. It’s excellent. Got it for my tiny RV but use it in the house when not camping.
I’ll probably need a larger one at some point and I’ll stick with the Instant brand. Their products are excellent.
While this appliance delivers on air frying promises, I'm still holding out on ATK's favorite 6 slice bread capacity convection toaster oven. Big enough for a 9" pizza, or 4-6 piece fried chicken, even a loaf of quick bread... Why not 😀. Single people & small families usually get left out of the small appliance testing equation. So please give us a break & tell us about your favorite medium toaster convection oven. Thank you Lisa for the demo🙏
Very useful review - thank you
I have the Instant Pot Vortex and it works well but it emits burnt plastic smell for a few weeks and unlike the Cosori the tray falls out on your plate when you tip the drawer. I’d go with the Cosori next time or the large Gourmia 7qt that Costco has for about $55.
I find the Gourmia's instruction manual hard to follow. I received one for Christmas. It's so frustrating to use, it's just taking up space.
Good to hear. I just bought a Gourmia from Costco but haven't tried it yet.
I love my instant vortex plus 10qt 7-1 toaster oven. It is literally a small oven. Idk what they were cooking but my vortex isn't "messy." Love the rotisserie basket for fries. Baskets give me anxiety because it is literally Schrodinger's cat, but the vortex toaster oven has the glass door so you see what your food looks like.
Great presentation 😊
I love my air fryer! I use it every single day
Thank you for your reviews.
I have an instant pot from the winning product company and love it and would buy from them as they make good products.
Thank you. Always very helpful.
Which airfryer had the best temperature accuracy. You did this with slow cookers and toasters and proved to us which cooked better.
Thank you for this information!
Tons of reviews for the instant pot say it smells like burning plastic/chemicals. Did you have that experience?
the original nuwave with the big clear dome is still the best with tons of capacity,i buy everyony one i can find
Costco shoppers..... I bought the Gourmia brand Air fryer for $60 2 weeks ago. It will hold 2-3 chicken breasts and for just 2 of us at home it is the right size. Everything we've cooked in it so far as come out as expected. The "fried" foods are crisp and delicious. It has been easy to use and not complicated control buttons. It has similar features of their winner and best buy. O... try frying a twinkie, you'll never eat one another way again. 400 for just 1.5 to 2 minutes depending on your level of fried. Take it out and let it sit for about a minute and the exterior is crispy while the interior is gooey and yummy!
Have you examined the Yedi Evolution Air Fryer, 6.8 Quart, Stainless Steel, with a Ceramic Cooking Basket? It not only aligns with all the criteria in your recommendations but also features a basket that is free of PFOA, BPA, lead, and cadmium.
Surprised the 5.8qt Cosori is not on your list.
I love my air fryer oven and don't have any complaints!
Lisa is my favorite reviewer!
Thank you for a great review 😊
Would have much appreciated a review of the smaller capacity fryers. I don't need to cook enough for four people. Neither do a lot of users who are students, seniors, or single people.
I’d look at the Cosori Lite (4qt)
I have the instant pot, love it
I have had a Ninja AF101 that I got for about $70 a few years ago, and I love the dang thing! It is such a good tool and reheats food way better than a microwave, and doesn't use as much electricity as my wall or range oven. So versatile and a necessity in a kitchen when you need convenience.
I just bought the same model. I haven’t used the air fryer feature yet. Is it good?
@@DRS427 Works great! Just as good as the recommended ones listed here. the different modes are just different fan speeds.
No love for Ninja! I got a dual-zone basket air fryer for Christmas and adore it
Sad about the Instant Pot teflon coating.
Thank you for not wasting my time and keeping it real. 😎🤘
While I agree the Sur La Table airfryer shown is a slight pain to clean, the rotisserie basket made the best wings I have ever made at home. It only makes enough for one, but so would a normal air fryer. ~10-12 wings.
EDIT: I'd also like to add that this model also has a basket and the handle attachment means you dont need an oven mitt to use it. Not sure why they negated to say this. I know its a short video, but don't entirely write off a style.
Please test against the best sellers on Amazon such as Cosori and Ninja.
How can you ignore brands with up to 69,000 reviews for one model? (Even though most Amazon reviews are fake.)
I love these reviews!
thank you so much for this video!
I have the large Cuisinart toaster oven air fryer, the reason I have that one because most of them are not accessible for the blind. I am blind and I need one that accessible, most of them don’t have buttons that I can feel it’s all digital, so at least a Cuisinart has control knobs on the one I have, and I can actually use it since I live independently. I love my air fryer.
God bless you! So many of us take our sight for granted.❤
Excellently presented review. Thanks!
Have an "oven" style model, it can with a basket and handle and the rotisserie works well. It is harder to clean though
I have been wanting to get the Instant Vortex Plus but since I have seen complaints about the smell I am hesitant. Is it just hit or miss as to whether or not yours will be a stinker? Only some complain so it seems rather odd.
I completely agree with this review. We neededNOT ONE MORE appliance. And we were right. BUT we use the Airfryer EVERYDAY. It has rapidly become our go=to first cooking appliance. Even before the stove. We have the recommended Instant Pot appliance and we are just 2. But I still use it even when we are 8. Makes a beautiful roast. And collects the drippings. And cleans up like a snap.
Check out the cheesecake recipe Lisa put out. It is fantastic!
Very informative message...
I was reading online where the basket contains BPA and Lead. Not sure I'd want to put my food on that.
