In their words
“I've wanted an Air Fryer for a while. Heating an oven for 5 Calamari rings is just not economical. I've been put off by how big and ugly they are. And that I'd have to have it on display. Well, now I've found my perfect match. I bought this Fryer as it fits easily into a pan draw. But it looks so nice I'm happy to show it off. As for cooking, frozen skinny fries in less than 3 minutes. Salmon wrap”

“Literally just received it in the mail. It looks aesthetically pleasing as I ordered a white one to match my kitchen decor. The size is perfect for me as a single person. I have an instant pot that I love using so I went with the instant pot brand air fryer thinking I’ll love it just the same. I plugged it in to set it up for the initial test run according to the instruction booklet. It’ll take 20”
