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!

I owned the Cuisinart all in one Air fryer but was very hard to clean even though I did still love it but after 4 years conked out. My BF owned the smaller version of this Power XL and decided to give it a try. This new bigger Power XL 10 Q Vortex Air Fryer is much easier to clean and noticed the chicken came out more tender than with my old Air Fryer. So yes love this new find! mar_3286 · ebay.com
