Title: So good, like really good
Review: Wow! This air fryer, let me tell you, it's something special. Compactâlike, really compact. Fits in my kitchen like it was always meant to be there. And the cooking? It's awesome, just awesome. Crispy, golden perfection every time, without the mess, without the hassle. I mean, you just pop your food in, push a button, and boomâmagic happens. It's like having a tiny, efficient chef right on your countertop. Easy to use? You bet. Even a guy like me, whoâs not exactly a culinary wizard, can whip up something tasty in no time. This air fryer, itâs a game-changer. You need one.That was my best Christopher Walken impression.

Title: Donât let the word âminiâ scare you, this is a very powerful, versatile, efficient little Air Fryer!
Review: My kitchen gets so hot in the evening that running the oven/stove nightly for dinner was too much heat, so started the hunt for a small air fryer. It took over 2 months to decide since I didnât want to spend $$$ not knowing how much use I would get out of it, and if it would work without blowing a circuit. It arrived on the 13th and has been used every day since. I wanted simple, and simple is what I got. Simple enough that straight out of the box, a first time user may never need to reference the âget startedâ manual included. Itâs a cinch to setup and the control panel is intuitive. The mini has a small footprint that is comparable in size to my 9 cup food processor, but weighs less.The stuff I really like:- It doesnât take up much space on or under the counter.- Available in a variety of colors. Obviously, I love the arctic white color!- The design is aesthetically pleasing and adds a modern touch to the counter top.- It has a low electrical load capacity at 1300 watts that does not trip a 15 or 20A circuit in an old house. This has been a growing concern of mine with newer electronics.- Versatile? The âpresetsâ are the default temperatures for your cooking options: air fry, roast, bake, and reheat. I pretty much use the air fry setting (changing the time & temp of course) for baked chicken (raw chicken w/ seasonings), vegetables, and pretty much everything else. To date, I have only used the âBakeâ function twice; once as a test for a plain chicken breast, and once for a baked potato wrapped in foil with both results consistent with my ovenâs!- Food Capacity/Space? The 2 qt capacity has space to create large meal size portions for 1-2 people. The square footage of (6.5âx6.5â) is roomy enough to cook a wide range of foods. I donât use precooked or frozen meats but market fresh. The âminiâ can cook one lg chicken breast (w/without bone), 2-3 medium/small chicken breasts, 2-4 chicken thighs, 2 mahi mahi fillets, 1-2 pork chops, or 5 lamb chops (loin or T-bones) at one time as a single layer. Of course, your sizes/cuts can vary but these are what I have âair friedâ to date. You could possibly add more (depending on sizes) but remember to not restrict air flow. You can also cook in batches since cooking time is fast. For foods that can be âstackedâ (ie veggies, tater tops, tenders etc) you can add a larger portion filling the basket. You can make garlic toast slices and even complete sandwiches (grilled cheese, meatball, and rubens etc). Itâs a game changer when it comes to crisping up frozen processed foods: french fries, onion rings, taquitos, eggrolls etc. This rules!!! You can also fill the tray or liner for fresh veggies al dente, or make teriyaki or sweet & sour etc. Best part of all? I have used zero oil!- Odor control? Itâs another way to cook bacon perfectly without the whole house smelling of it and minimal mess (results comparable to baking in the oven). The odor is dramatically reduced, but so is the quantity in the tray so youâll need to cook in batches.- It has an automatic pre-heat function that takes ~ 2 minutes- Energy efficient? The 2 Qt Mini heats up and cooks significantly faster and more efficiently than larger volume baskets and the oven. The longest cooking time used has been 22 minutes at 390°.- Poor eyesight? The digital screen is easy to read with good white on black contrast- Not tech saavy? The dial control is analog & easy to use to set temp and time- Noise? The fan noise level is not overly loud or distracting.- Not watching the clock? Itâll âbeepâ when ready for you to add food, turn food, and End- Quick cool down? Once basket is removed from unit, it cools down exceptionally fast.- Cleaning? Itâs easier to clean. Both the basket & tray are removable and dishwasher safe, BUT the small size makes it easy to fit most small sinks to hand wash (my preferred method). In the event of stubborn or baked on food, Iâd recommend using a soft bristle brush or even an old toothbrush to handle the residue on the grill & around the clips.- General maintenance? To avoid grease build up on your coil you should clean the area at least once monthly if not weekly (especially if you air fry bacon). Itâs pretty easy to do and it will extend the life of your unit and itâs efficiency. Make sure itâs unplugged and cooled down. Remove the basket & tray, and turn the unit on its side or upside down. Use a damp sponge to wipe off any baked-on grease accumulated.- Compact & portable? Take it with you to save $$$ on food or to stay on a restricted diet. Itâs not limited to your home, apartment, or dorm. You can take it into work for that long or overnight shift (it fits right under your cubicle or in your locker). It carries well on your business trip when trying to save $$$ on restaurants, or when car camping & road trips if you have a power inverter. Visiting family for the holidays? Bring it with.- Accessories? silicone inserts & parchment liners are available for this size model making it even easier to cook things like glazed pork, teriyaki, sweet & sour and other saucy or difficult to clean dishes. Plus it will save you on the wear & tear of the original âfinish/coatingâ.- Price? The price was perfect for my budget! Best of all, I found it on Amazon Second Chance which has become my new best friend!Stuff Iâm not too keen about:- The instant-connect app does not work for Samsung Galaxy Note 8 android version 9- Does not contain a splatter shield to protect coil- Cooking with it is addictive!Overall, I am totally happy with my purchase, the size, quality, functions, and price. Itâs perfect for adults and seniors, any person that is starting out, cooking for 1-2 people, is stove-less, has limited space, or just wants a small accessory thatâs sleek, modern & functional. Durability is unknown at this time, but Iâll update should there be any changes. All in all, I am extremely pleased with my purchase 5-Stars!

Title: Very useful
Review: It's well-made, sturdy, easy to use, and just right for 1-2 people. We've used it a lot in the few months we've had it. Some things are much easier to cook with it, for example, tofu cubes. It's not going to cook much bacon though! Cooks veggies great too.

Title: Smol, but mighty. Perfect size for 1-2 people.
Review: This replaced an older big, black air fryer that we still love and use the heck out of, but took up too much counter space. This air fryer is so teeny tiny that itâs almost cute, but donât let that fool you. Iâm thoroughly impressed. It cooks better than the air fryer weâve been using for years, and has better controls and built in features. Itâs the perfect size for 1-2 people. It would be perfect to take to the office or have in a dorm room. The other criterion for my selection of this was that itâs white. Black and stainless steel appliances are jarringly out of place in my original 1929 kitchen. This air fryer visually blends in much better than the old one. Now we can store the old, big air fryer out of sight, and haul it out when weâre intoxicated and need to heat up a whole bag of tots immediately.

Title: Great now but hoo boy, took a while
Review: I usually don't get into kitchen gadgets, but was excited for this after hearing so many good things about air frying. This item didn't take up a lot of room, was a good price & with good ratings. Wasn't hard to figure out how to operate but good grief, took FOREVER to get rid of weird new-appliance smell when cooking. Wiped down basket & interior then washed basket well, ran several empty cycles with windows open, cooked trial food, cleaned again...no luck. Finally found a suggestion in a Reddit sub to run 3 cycles at 400 for 15 min each with a bowl of vinegar & water in a bowl. Did this, cleaned again and FINALLY, success! Of course the manual did not mention any of this, lol. Anyway - much better now; cooking all kinds of things at this point. I like that the outside isn't hot when I go to pull out the basket, the simplicity of the controls, visibility of display. Sits nicely in a metal stand & does not heat up stuff around it. As others have mentioned, have to set your own timer to turn food halfway through because the automatic timer is apparently stuck at 3 min. Just know that serving size really is 1-2 people, no more. Recommend but just be prepared that it may not be awesome right out of the gate & it may take a little work to really get going.

Title: I can't imagine not living with this air fryer

Title: My first air fryer
Review: I tried this air fryer out because it was small. Most air fryers I'd seen were too large to fit comfortably on my countertop. This air fryer is still large, in my opinion. However, it's light enough to move around when I'm not using it. I have used it to cook chicken and potatoes and I was pleasantly surprised at the results. For cooking a few items it's perfect. For one person it's great. The clean-up is easy and doesn't take much time. I would recommend this item for a single person or for very small meals.

Review: Funciona muy bien pero muy pequeña. Solo viene en Fahrenheit no en centÃgrados entonces hay que estar calculando el cambio

Review: TIene capacidad decente, dos pechugas de pollo, 2 papas enteras grandes. Las funciones son más que suficientes y es muy potente. Dice que se conecta a la app de instant pop, pero eso es sobre prometedor ya que no se conecta realmente, la app te puede decir qué hacer y te guÃa paso a paso pero no controla ni media función de la freidora.
