Product Information

There's only one tray here, it doesn’t have a dehydrate setting, there’s no progress or text bar (instead, a small seven-segment screen displays the time, temperature, and cooking stage), and there’s no window nor a light.

And even if you do end up making a mess, you can take a look at our article on how to clean an air fryer - which may involve just popping the relevant elements into the dishwasher when you're done. They use a heating element usually at the top of its cooking compartment to heat up the air and a fan to circulate that air around and under the food. If you're yet to ever own an air fryer, a little nervous to try out a new appliances and / or are conscious about spending money, the Ultenic K10 is a good one to consider.

The handle found on the drawer is also handy for shaking the food part-way through cooking, which encourages an even distribution of crispiness.

For one to two people, up to 3L should be enough, or you can go a bit higher in capacity for more versatility. My favourite thing is that you needn't worry about timings: all you have to do is sync the drawers, so everything finishes at the same time.

When cooking food types such as fries, an uneven bake can sometimes be achieved if the food isn't rearranged or tossed around. With so many options out there, we made it simpler for you to choose the best air fryer for your needs. We rated each design on how many settings it offers, how durable and easy to clean the body and parts are, how loud their fans are and how hot the exterior casing gets. So we’ve used our years of experience testing products to find the best air fryers available right now.

Air fryers are cleverly made to use convection heat to cook foods, unlike a deep fat fryer which requires food to be submerged in hot oil.

There are a number of considerations that need taking into account when choosing the best air fryer for you. There is a huge array of foods which you can cook in an air fryer from meats such as chicken, fish and pork to various vegetables and even roast dinners! While it’s missing a lot of the usual presets – at least without app support – it offers Chef Mode, Classic Cook, and Probe Cook, so that you can either fine-tune the cooking experience, set it and forget it, or have the ChefMaker cook your food until its internal temperature is right where you want it, thanks to a nifty probe aka food thermometer that’s included in the box.
