Customers regard the TurboFry 3.6 Qt. Air Fryer favorably for its ease of use, food quality, and compact size, finding it produces evenly cooked food and is ideal for smaller households. Many appreciate its affordable price point. However, some users have expressed concerns about the timer's functionality and the durability of the non-stick coating.
It's been a good air fryer for the money. I never used an air fryer before this purchase and I wanted to see if I liked it so I got something inexpensive. I did like it. I used it mostly for frozen battered fish, chicken strips and fries. As others have mentioned, you need to let the timer go down on it's own if you end the cooking process early. That means you need to unplug the appliance or keep the basket pulled out slightly (or removed completely) until the timer runs out. Otherwise it will continue to cook until the timer runs down. The basket is also a bit small. This is especially true if you want to cook an entree and a side dish - like crabcakes and fries for 2. I was only able to cook 3 crabcakes in it and had to cook the fries separately. Cleanup had been very easy as well. I'd wipe the basket down with a paper towel and then wash it off gently in the sink. As much as I liked this air fryer, I did get something else to replace it. I have a tiny amount of counter space and hated having to take it out and put it back into storage every time I used it. I ended up replacing this and my toaster oven with a smart oven that does it all. It was costly but much more convenient in so many ways. This Chefman will be a gift to a family member.

Excellent product that gives you the best bang for your buck! There were more expensive ones but this one was a great price & perfect for some quick low fat cooking for 1-2 people. I’ve used this air fryer over a dozen times now since my purchase and it is now my favorite go-to small appliance. It is also easy to clean, assemble, & doesn’t take up too much counter space. I am very happy with my purchase!

Okay so I’ve had this air fryer for over a month before my review. First off I didn’t know I would use it this much. Secondly yes I wish it was slight bigger but for the price it’s great and it works great as well. As for the smell I did see other reviews had said it smelled even after washes. And it does it smells like plastic I cleaned and soaked it before my first use. But it didn’t matter it still had a strong plastic smell. After using it with light olive oil it still has the smell but it’s not as strong. But this does not effect the taste of the food or how this product works. It’s a great must have. Especially for one to two people. I would not suggest it for a bigger family. It’s super easy to use and clean.
