Buyers' weakest aspect—build quality & durability, particularly LCD screen failures—directly echoes critic block 2's mention of safety features, which presumes reliable controls that reviewers found failing in practice.

In their words

I have own many different type of air fryers, and this one, has to be the best one I have ever owned. I only had this machine for three days, and so far, I have baked a chicken pot pie, Chinese BBQ pork and a roast chicken. All have turned out amazing, we have also done roast veggies, heated up frozen pizzas, all came out perfect. Easy to clean-up, and doesn't take that much room on the counter.

I like that it cooks very well. I don’t like that after a little over a year, the numbers and words don’t display correctly on the screen. Makes it hard to tell what the temperature setting is and the cook time. Contacted instant and they offered me 10% off for a new one. So that one can stop working too and I’m out more money? No thanks. Clearly this is a defect that the company should rectify.
