If you haven’t added an air fryer to your kitchen just yet, you’re not going to want to wait any longer. Air fryers have an extensive range of cooking capabilities that allow you can serve up a variety of foods in a healthier alternative to frying. Without the need for oil, you can make anything from fried chicken and vegetables to healthy snacks and sweet treats.

There’s no limit of social media recipes to follow on air frying so you’ll never run out of dinner ideas. Plus, they take less time to cook and offer quick clean up, too. But with so many different air fryers to choose from, it can be challenging to pick the right one to buy.



To help you decide, here are some of the most recommended air fryers available, including models from Ninja and Instant Pot . Ninja Max XL 5.5 Qt.

Air Fryer: “We’re fans of the basket’s slick, ceramic nonstick interior, and we like that the removable tray fits snugly and securely in the bottom of the basket so you don’t have to worry about it falling out when you turn the food out onto a plate. Both the basket and tray are dishwasher safe and easy to clean, even if you choose to hand-wash,” Good Housekeeping says. Instant Pot 7-in-1 10 Qt.

Air Fryer: “The 10-quart Instant Vortex produced great fries, wings, and air-fried apples in testing, and was a breeze to operate thanks to the clear display and good instructions. The trays and rotisserie insert add to its functionality, but all pull out completely and were easy to clean after every recipe we tested,” Food & Wine says. PowerXL 6 Qt.

Air Fryer: “The PowerXL Air Fryer comes with 12 presets, including air fry, slow cook, and steam, among others. Its 6-quart capacity can hold half of a chicken, or four burgers with ease, and temperatures are adjustable from 180° – 500°. Best of all, no babysitting this one.

This one shuts off automatically when everything is cooked to perfection,” Popular Mechanics says. Beautiful by Drew Barrymore 6 Qt. Air Fryer: “During testing, we found this model churned out crispy fries and tender chicken breast.

It also has a powerful motor that rivals that of our top air fryer pick. The soft-touch screen makes it easy to toggle between settings and you can set the temperature to exact numbers anywhere from 90 to 400 degrees F,” Food Network says. Cosori 2.

1 Qt. Mini Air Fryer: “If you’re cooking for one or just want a small air fryer for your kiddo’s chicken nuggets, this Cosori will work. It has a digital screen, four straightforward settings, and the ability to set the temperature in 5-degree increments.

It’s not the most versatile air fryer, but it’s small, easy to store, and under $50,” Serious Eats says.
