    Compact and very useful
    I gave my original one to my daughter while I was away to try out the usefulness of an air fryer. She has a big family but put away her toaster oven and decided to keep it. The school aged children (grade 3+) warm up their own snacks, prepare school lunches. I offered her a bigger one but she likes how compact it is. I bought a new one. I love the color, it is very easy to use and it’s my number one appliance. Great for veggie burgers, chicken nuggets, fries, makes perfect toast. Chicken breasts come out moist and delicious in 10 minutes. Perfect size for one or two people. It isn’t the easiest to clean because if you put it in the dishwasher you might ruin the coating. So I bought a couple of silicon inserts which makes cleanup much easier. For best use, also get an oil sprayer. The new ones in the clear containers work very well.

    Love this smaller air fryer
    I held out for a long time on buying an air fryer. My sister sent me an article that reviewed air fryers and this was the small-size recommendation.They were so right. I love it. There’s only two of us at home and this is the perfect size for us. Doesn’t take up a lot of counter space. Holds potion sizes that are good for us. Very easy to use and easy to clean. It does not come with a detailed recipe book and there’s a little learning curve with any air fryer. I just started my own little notebook of foods we make most often. Things cook/ bake/ reheat fast. Must say I haven’t used roast or air fry settings yet, but the foods we’ve baked (frozen dinner rolls, pizza, and garlic bread) and reheated (eggrolls) so far are ready so much quicker and easier than using our stove’s oven. Just keep an eye on things to begin with and think of it as a convection oven for baking and reheating. Works great.

    Good quality and performance
    Perfect for small kitchens and 1 person, easy to use. It may not fit a small chicken but a chicken breast can fit in the basket. Works great so far!

    Almost Perfect for a Single Person
    I ordered this because I had been using a really large combo Instant Pot (family size) that my son let me borrow while he was out of country and loved how quick everything cooked, with less grease, the variety of uses was great.This one is just about perfect for a single person. I do like how it works so far, but there are a few little annoyances.If you really want to cook 1 chicken breast or 1 salmon or 1 steak (not a big one) then it’s perfect, almost. But personally, sometimes I’d rather cook TWO chicken breasts so I could have leftovers for reheating later. The basket is too small for two (well, too small for the chicken breasts I get at the meat counter). Also, I don’t think squeezing 2 chicken breasts in here would be a good idea because you’re supposed to leave room for the air to circulate. In the photo is a different chicken breast that I usually buy, I thought I’d try this brand since they run a bit smaller, but these are also too big. I would only cook one of these at a time as well.It took a couple times to figure out how long to cook sweet potato fries! But that’s what taking notes is for.Another thing I’m not a fan of is the little half circle metal thingy in the middle of the tray that’s used to pick the tray up and set it back in. I think having just a hole there would be better. Cooking any piece of meat or salmon that is flat, doesn’t sit flat. Not that it probably affects cooking, but it’s just weird. I had a piece of salmon once that finished cooking with a bump in the middle.The tray, it has rubber bumpers on each side. You do have to press down on the tray to put it in and take it out. Seems like it’s thick sturdy rubber, so it should hold up a while.And finally, there aren’t any recipes specifically for this size. On their website the question was asked, and answered that we should refer to the regular air fryer recipes. But having a smaller basket, wouldn’t that mean the cooking times would be different? I’ve had to play around and take notes to figure out cooking times. Not even in their manual did they offer suggested cooking times for anything, which would have been nice if they did.It does clean up really easily. It’s not too large, and it doesn’t take up tons of space.For the price and what it does, as long as it doesn’t fail on me any time soon, I’m using it regularly and it’s doable. I’m kind of on the fence about maybe buying a bigger one in the future, as there are so many more options for cooking with their multi-use pressure cooker/air fryer.**UPDATE: Has anyone ever left soapy water in the basket to let it soak? Have you had the water leak from the bottom of the basket? I can only figure the water was past the screw in the basket, and the screw was loose. So I kind of tightened it, it didn’t really need it, but it still leaks. Am contacting the manufacturer. Just heads up, don’t leave the basket full of water on your counter or you may have a mess to clean up. lol

    Perfect for My Dorm Room!
    Perfect size for my university dorm room space! Cooks for 1-2 persons give or take. Great for quick meals especially when I don’t want to be in the shared kitchen (I do A LOT of meals especially breakfast in this air fryer) Very easy to use and clean. I love the fact that it’s so sleek and has a timer so it shuts off when the timer has stopped . It can be a bit loud but that doesn’t bother me really. Be careful not to fill it to capacity because the basket is shallow and then the food touches the heating ring and burns and I can’t seem to be able to get rid of the burnt piece completely because the ring is built into the air fryer. So now whenever I use it sometimes it smells as though there’s something burning which I can admit was my fault for over stuffing the basket. Otherwise it heats up very quickly and cooks food evenly.PRO tip: wrap the removable tray in aluminum foil paper and dispose of it if you don’t want to wash the entire basket every single time, it also speeds up cooking time 🙂 It’s definitely worth it, it’s not too heavy so it’s easy to move around and great quality. Definitely my favorite appliance right now!

    Everyone needs one
    I didn’t really know that I needed this little mighty thing :)Now I use it almost every day to bake, fry or to heat the meals. It’s small, so it doesn’t take up much space, I chose white color; it looks cool and stylish but of course most importantly it works so well. It’s also so easy to use, just choose the temperature and time and decide what you do among bake, air fry, etc. That’s all! Enjoy the meals..Ps: At the beginning, there was this smell when it got hot, fortunately it went away eventually. It might be a good idea to turn it on with no food in it and -if possible- outside.

    Love it!
    Perfect for 1-2 people … looks nice on counter. Cooks everything I’ve tried so far perfectly … moist and tasty and tender. Easy to use and easy to clean. Be sure to check the temperature and time and the air fryer will do the rest, from perfectly cooked eggs to perfectly cooked steaks …

    Funciona muy bien pero muy pequeña. Solo viene en Fahrenheit no en centígrados entonces hay que estar calculando el cambio

    TIene capacidad decente, dos pechugas de pollo, 2 papas enteras grandes. Las funciones son más que suficientes y es muy potente. Dice que se conecta a la app de instant pop, pero eso es sobre prometedor ya que no se conecta realmente, la app te puede decir qué hacer y te guía paso a paso pero no controla ni media función de la freidora.

    it is easy to use, but in hindsight should have alittle larger one

    it is just perfect. Good for 2 people. Pretty color, takes up very little room on counter and I cook everything in it. Hamburgers, French fries, fish and chips, fresh fish, pork chops, chicken pieces and chicken wings.
