My NuWave - 4.5 QT Brio is a hit in our household. So far, I've made three delicious meals using the NuWave, but by far the favorite was the air fryer chicken wings. They came our with a nice crisp brown skin, juicy and flavorful on the inside.They browned so beautifully that I had to take a photo to share with friends and family. What a time saving, amazing device! I love that its a healthier coo SoMimi · nuwaveairpurifier.com

What an awesome little air fryer! I picked it because I have another one at work in a different color, but I wanted this one for my summer home with the beach vibe color really stands out! It is so easy to use with the term of a dial and I love how the basket is Lifted for airflow with little feet! It cooks anything in lickety-split time and no mess!
