Bella - 2.6 qt. Analog Air Fryer - Black

I love using this for cooking things I normally would pan fry. There is definitely a learning curve in regards to figuring out the best cooking temperatures and times for certain things, but it comes with some recipes that provide helpful starting points. There are some items that I feel my toaster oven does just as good of a job in cooking, but other things - such as chicken - the air fryer is truly is more superior, and faster, at. The fryer itself is really quiet and stays surprisingly cool to the touch when in use. The basket isn't very big, but I'm only cooking for two people at the most so it's not really a problem for me. The big advantage of this over pan frying is that you can pretty much leave it unattended while it's cooking.

I like it. It will take a bit to get used to but it does cook good.

I love mi new air frayer its easy to cook , really good!!!

I have been feeling a lot better that I cut the grease of deep frying. Now that I have this air fryer I can get a better and healthier crispy taste minus the grease. Don’t have to worry about grease all over the place and the smell. Thank you Bella Air fryer.

Does exactly what it states. Food is crisp and moist. Perfect for 2 people meals. Fast and easy.

I bought the Bella air fryer on a whim as it was listed as a daily deal. I knew of these appliances, but I had never seen one used in person or tasted food cooked with it. Now that I have one, though, I must say it does a darned good job "frying" food without oil. I've cooked french fries, chicken strips and reheated battered cod in the thing, and they all came out much better than if I had used the oven or (God forbid) the microwave! Of those, I'm really impressed with the chicken strips. They really turn out good. Anyway, I'm quite pleased with it, and I'm sure it'll become one of the more used items in my kitchen.

I bought this on sale out of pure curiosity. I've wanted to try an air fryer just to see how things turn out as a healthier option (and cleaner and better smelling) to deep frying, but I wasn't willing to spend $100+ to find out. It's actually pretty great. It does single servings of some food very well. It takes some trial and error to get the right mixture, but you can get it close to what you're used to. My only real complaint is the size of the frying container itself. Like I said, you can do single servings in there pretty easily, but definitely not much more. And I wish there was a way to cancel the timer instead of just twisting it back to the start. I guess you can let it run (because it keeps timing even while unplugged), but I like to turn stuff all the way off when I'm not using it. Overall, very happy with it.

You basically get the same result from using your oven in about the same amount of time. It also can't cook a lot at a time. It can cook evenly if you turn/shake it often, but to get things crispy you'll usually end up overcooking it. Food coated in flour or batter will come out more flaky rather than crispy like it does when cooked with oil. You may get it close if you drench them in oil, but that defeats the purpose of the air fryer. I tried salmon and the skin crisped but it was dry, plus it took the same amount of time as using the pan. I'm not a particularly good cook, but I get better results with pan and oven.
