Bottom started rusting almost immediately (edited great customer service)
4 out of 5 stars
Bottom started rusting almost immediately (edited great customer service)
Overall I actually love this little air fryer. It does a great job cooking the food, cleans up easily, etc. I gave it 2 stars because of those positives. However, within a month of starting to use it I noticed a small spot of rust on the "floor" of the fryer. I believe this is caused by the steam created during cooking. I've kept it clean, wiped it with paper towels, etc. but still 7 months later the entire floor is now covered in rust. I use the fryer on average 2-3 times a week, so daily use probably would have resulted in this MUCH faster. So far it's still useable, and I guess I'll keep using it until it rusts through the floor and is no longer useable. But the next one I buy will be a different brand. Any item made to cook food should be impervious to liquids and not rust immediately.Came back and edited my review. I contacted the company to inquire about the warranty and they sent me a new air fryer, no hassles. Changed it from 2 to 4 because they do have excellent customer service. Left it at 4 instead of 5 because of the rust issue.

I don't know why we had been putting off getting an air fryer - probably one of the reasons was that there are so many out there that it is hard to choose. In the end I was happy I got this one. The size is perfect for a severing for two, and it cooks food so unexpectedly fast, that doing two rounds is not a pain. One of the things I like best, is how little time it takes to get pre-heated. The instructions on the screen help you along and makes it easy for a first time user to understand the process (not that using an air fryer is rocket science). But experimenting with times and temps for various foods is not that hard, so that you get just the right results.

The size and aesthetics are spot on. It really matches our other GE stainless steel appliances and looks like is part of the Kitchen. Cleaning the trays is a breeze compared to a traditional oven. Can't commend about long term longevity but item looks sturdy enough. We have already gotten our money's worth out of it. Very happy with the purchase.

What can I say. I like this air fryer a lot. Arrived at my door in two days well packaged. And the price was very reasonable. Really like the sleek stylish appearance. It looks good sitting next to my stainless steel optigrill and my stainless steel instant pot. But appearance isn’t what prepares the food. Any of the reviews stated a strong plastic smell that infused itself into the food. I followed the instructions with sn initial cleaning of the basket and the tray I pn the bottom of the basket with warm soapy water and a good rinse followed by a 20 minute test run on air fry mode @ 400F. The first test run it did smell pretty strong but it wasn’t overbearing. Did it a second time at the same settings and this time the odor was significantly less. The first true “run” with food was a batch of sliced potatoes. They came out perfect. Tonight I did a batch of homemade buffalo wings (pictured). To me they came out just as good or better than those at a wing place. I could only get maybe a dozen in the basket in a single layer but these were pretty big wings. Since I live alone that was plenty for a good meal. The machine runs fairly quietly for an air fryer. It’s actually quieter than my little 1.2 quart Dash Mimi air fryer. The controls are very easy to set and use. The display is nice and big and good and bright so if you have a brightly lit kitchen you’ll have no trouble seeing it. Cleanup was easy as pie. After it cooled a little warm soapy water and a soft sponge and a rinse it’s all good for the next fry session. All in all, I really like this air fryer a lot. I was going to go with the 6 quart version but saw a lot of reviews saying the basket handles were breaking but this seems pretty well built. Would I recommend this unit? You betcha!! Very pleased so far. I’ll do an update after I’ve used it more.

I didn’t think I wanted an air fryer - there isn’t much extra counter space - but hubby came home from visiting with sons & grands, who use theirs often & here we are. I read good reviews of this model and got the 4 qt size, there being just 2 of us. I might go for the next size up, if I were buying one now. This is fine for many things but requires 2 batches for others. Because it cooks quickly, that isn’t a huge deal. Its footprint, though, is perfect for the space available. I’m having to watch how-to videos, but there are plenty of those, and there’s an Air Fryer for Dummies book. This is a very simple model and I’m happy with it.

Reviewed in the United States on June 19, 2023
This was my first time using an air fryer, and this one is easy to use, and overall a great machine. It was easy to clean the basket after use. I was worried that the machine would become very hot when used, because I have a section of my countertop that is enclosed in cabinetry for keeping small appliances, and was concerned that I would have to move it outside the cabinet to use, but the outside of the unit did not seem to become very hot, nor did I notice any other issue that would be of concern if using the appliance near cabinetry. (This was after one use, cooking an item for 17 minutes at 330 degrees, so at higher temperatures for longer times, the amount of heat generated may be different.) My only complaint about the item was the warning sticker placed on the stainless steel front of the unit used that awful glue that is hard to remove, where instead of the label peeling off easily and taking the glue along with it, the paper label tears, leaving a layer of paper and the glue stuck to the stainless steel surface when you try to remove the sticker. After attempting to soak the residue off by letting the basket stand in a sink full of water, it took about half an hour, much elbow grease, several thoughts about just sending the thing back, about half a bottle of my daughter's Acetone-based nail polish remover, half a roll of paper towels and some Dawn grease-cutting dish detergent to finally get the label and all related glue residue off completely. (This label-glue issue is a pet-peeve of mine, and those of you who share it know what I mean when I say that it sort-of detracted from the experience of getting a new kitchen toy, and I will say that the glue on this label was some of the worst I have ever encountered--and I am 66 years old, so I have had a lot of experience with this issue back in the days before they made improvements in the glue used on price tags and stickers--an advance of which the maker of this appliance has not availed themselves.) The manufacturer could solve this by spending a bit more on a more easily removable label--or by placing it somewhere other than on the stainless face of the appliance. But, I will say that persistence prevails, and it is possible to eventually remove the label and the glue--if one has the necessary solvents on hand, and lots of time and paper towels. Absent those tools, you might have to wait to procure them before using the unit for the first time, if you want the glue off before the first use. During the half-hour removal process, I began to wonder if heat might help remove the glue, but decided that might only make matters worse, so made sure all the residue was removed before using. Given the tenacity of the glue, if heat is one's chosen method to dislodge it, I wonder if heat from the unit itself would suffice, or if a blowtorch would be needed (that is a joke), but just sayin' it was not easy to get the glue removed. Aside from that, the machine is great.

Primero debo decir que me asusté cuando leí lo del olor a plástico, pero, el instructivo del equipo es claro: haga una prueba en vacío tanto iemoo y a tantos grados, ese ciclo sí olió a plástico, posterior a eso, el olor no volvió.
He hecho un poco de todo: mojarra frita, pescado, papas a la francesa evidentemente jaja! Con excelente sabor y bien doradito ( solo hay que ir aprendiendo a manejar tiempos de cocción y temperatura)
Por otra parte, la base es fácil de lavar, el instructivo dice cómo hacerlo, así evitarás que se quede grasits pegada, aunque debo admitir que la base de pronto me da cosa que se ralle con la rejilla, pero trae protectores.
El equipo emite varios bips para avisarte si ya terminó o para que voltees la comida.
En cuanto al consumo eléctrico, no me aumentó ni $10 el pago de luz y eso que la uso de dos a tres veces x semana.
