Easy setup. The two crisping pans and drop plan clean up very well and very easily. The unit fits the equivalent of a standard bag of fries. I do recommend alternating the crisping pans halfway through cooking so that both are equally crisp.i haven’t had any issue cleaning the inside of the machine either. It’s like a tiny electric oven. It does exhaust from the top, so be sure to pull it out from under any cabinet when using. It also heats up on the bottom, so keep it on a heat-safe surface. I placed a full-sized slate tile, a remnant of my kitchen construction, under it with felt pads making the tile into a stand that simply slides out. The tile is the same size as the base of the unit, so that also gives you the idea of space this requires.

I was very skeptical in getting any sort of air fryer. But I now look back and wonder how I survived without this machine. This one in particular has several options including being able to do rotisserie. It makes the best fries ever and everything you put in it is done extremely quickly. Very easy to use and highly recommend.

1. I appreciate the presets but they do jump around when you mess too much with their times.
2. I LOVE that I can "fry" a potato chip - but they (and anything sliced fine) are just too high maintenance; the fan blows the slices all over. And they seem to always go from not-quite-done to way-over-done in a blink.
3. The size is somewhere between just right and not quite big enough. I.e. I love that it has a rotisserie...and someday I WILL find a bird (after this lock-down) that actually fits...BUT, a pork loin is next at bat.
Just a few things I've already found it to do awesomely (with some babysitting) are jerky, egg frittata, sweet potato fries, and roasted red peppers. There are more, for sure, but I just don't recall right now.
Everything has limitations. I got this at such a good price it's limitations don't really matter. I'm still learning, but I think could use this everyday and be happy I have it. I definitely recommend.

Bella - Pro Series 10.5 qt. Digital Air Fryer
Bella has done a nice job loading their largest capacity Air Fryer with features. It’s boxy design is actually cute as well as being practical. It allows the oven to have two trays of food for the several cooking modes. It also allows for a relatively small rotisserie to be included. The digital touchscreen has 10 presets which are all fully adjustable for time or temperature, either up or down. And it’s easy to do. The presets make the decision about whether to Air Fry, Grill, roast, bake or broil or reheat really simple. Everything is controlled from an easy-to-understand digital touchscreen.
SETUP: The Bella provides 2 crisper trays and a baking pan/drip-tray. There are also the pieces needed to assemble the rotisserie which operates using the built-in motor. There is little to do other than familiarize yourself with the controls and the recommended cooking tables. Air Fryers can very efficiently cook food with the moving hot air, so cooking times usually need to be adjusted. The tables are well done. I would suggest that Bella consider creating some laminated cooking guides for those tables to protect them for regular kitchen use.
USE and PERFORMANCE: Bella! Bella! We have a problem. In fact there are several issues which I need to address.
1. The over-all construction leaves a mixed message. It’s an attractive front with a door that never seems to fit properly. It closes tightly enough. But, when open, it has far too much “play.” It turns out, that door can be removed if held at a 45 degree angle. Perhaps this a trade-off that’s a bit rough around the edges.
2a. There are 3 trays for two purposes.
From the user’s perspective: There are two crisper trays and a combination drip-tray/baking tray. The very useful and important baking pan/drip-tray looks like it needs to be 1/16” wider to properly sit on any of the paired support runners on the sides of the oven. In every likely position, the tray all too easily slips off the runners and falls to one side or the other and eventually to the bottom of the unit. On the other hand, the two crisper trays which are almost the same sheet metal design (but with a grid of holes) sit at every likely position with no difficulty. Of course, they are simply 1/16” wider! Intuitively, it seems something is wrong.
2b From Bella’s instructions: That drip tray should ONLY sit at the bottom of the oven, below the heating elements. (There’s a line saying that in the instruction book on page 5.) Grease or other can fall on the elements. However, from Bella’s diagram on page 8, that drip tray sits on a pair of guides above the lower heating elements. (Yep, that is a contradiction,) If you want to use the drip tray as a baking tray (as suggested by Bella) it will only serve that purpose while also sitting on a crisper tray. But, in the more desirable center location, those two trays together will not fit or sit properly on the guides.
3. There is a rotisserie, but only a small chicken will squeeze into the oven. (Bella agrees somewhere in the guide). We can’t find those small chickens in our grocery store, and, no, a Cornish Game Hen won’t satisfy two people. The rotisserie is a feature that may not be that useful.
4. The noise level is quite high when the convection fan kicks in. The sound level rises to just over 90dB (that’s similar to a jazz concert) during convection mode. Otherwise it operates at 70dB. Measurements are from 3 ft. distance. In fact, we moved the Bella oven to our outdoor grill area. We’re waiting to get the neighbor’s opinion.
We cooked frozen French Fries which came out perfectly. We also finished a pan-browned pork tenderloin using the roasting capability of the Bella, and it did a nice, fast job of cooking. I was expecting a toaster feature, too, but alas, the design and shape don’t lend themselves to toasting bread.
SUMMARY: The Bella Air Fryer works great for many of its features. When the “Yes, it’s a very nice Air Fryer, but ….. “ list looks like I’ve described, I’m going to be reluctant to recommend the Bella. I would not want someone with less patience (a teenager, or visitor) trying to use this unit, risking grease spills or a burn trying to control the odd pan issues. These types of appliances ought to be somewhat intuitive, but that will lead you into trouble here. For us, we can’t recommend it.

My wife and I had been talking and looking at airfryers for quite some time. We were going to buy another brand until I saw this one. She bought it as a fathers day gift and we love it! Quick easy and no mess. My 23 year old son who is a college students really loves it for the crispy wings and fries. Great product.

I have had this air fryer for a while now and I believe an air fryer is a crucial small appliance for a busy household. Overall, I like this air fryer but have not been able to master it quite yet. Have been able to get rid of the toaster and heating the oven for smaller items/meals. Love the ability to make healthier meals. With that being said, it is pretty large. It's not something one would want to get out every time they go to use it. Takes up a decent amount of counter space.

I purchased the air fryer primarily for rotisserie use. Regardless of the size of chicken the whole bird simply cannot fit in there. I managed to squeeze one in there but it kept on getting stuck with the drop pane at the bottom and chicken came out with the bottom well done and the top lightly cooked. It’s a loud machine and emits smoke and not sure if that’s normal. My cousin has an air fryer from a different brand and I have seen him successfully use it for the rotisserie function.

I have had an analog (no digital display) air fryer for a few months now, and I am totally sold on the idea of an air fryer. In short, if you don't know these, they are like a small convection oven, with a way for the oils to drip away from the food, super heating the air with a fan to blow the heated air all over the entire oven evenly cooking the food. A convection oven still cooks the food while it sits on a pan. Broilers will drip into a pan, but they tend to cook only the top of your food. Mostly I do not fry any food anymore on the cooktop with a pan and oil, I air fry instead. Same with oven cooked items, I tend to air fry them too. An air fryer is a truly amazing product, not just a fad or passing fancy. How many of you have a kitchen full of things you thought were the next big thing, only to never use it? Exactly, this is NOT one of those things.
So, fast forward to this unit, and I will say before this came out, I was considering making the switch to a larger unit. Why? The small air fryer is too small to make all that I want to make in it. Often I'll make ground beef, either for hamburgers or sloppy joe's for example, and then make french fries too. The small air fryer requires me to cook one, then cook the next thing. This larger unit will allow me to cook items on one rack, while at the same time cook something on the other rack. Fries on top, burgers on the bottom. And there is a drip tray that catches the oil and grease. This is rated at 10.5 quarts of food space vs. 3.6 quarts on the small fryer. So you imagine it is 3x the space for food to cook.
So some of the great things about this from my first use, which was chicken wings, is that the preset for meat was perfect. 20 minutes, was something like 360 degrees, and rotate the racks top to bottom and bottom to top, half way through. Wings were at 170 degrees or higher, without burning at 20 minutes. The outside of them was lightly brown but very crispy. Inside, juicy and very tasty, no oil as normally happens as it would normally sit and cook on the oil in a traditional oven situation.
There is an oven light - hooray! And the oven door comes off to allow for easy cleaning, which it was a very easy cleanup with some lysol wipes and hand wash the door to get off the splatter from cooking wings. There are presets for food, and you can also manually control the cooking process.
Now there is a rotisserie but it only allows for a chicken up to 4lbs. That isn't very big, and so I don't know that I'll use this very often. But it is a cool feature if that opportunity presents itself. It is a bit complicated to do, have to prep the bird before being on the rotisserie, but I can imagine that would be one tasty chicken.
The outside of the unit stays cool enough you won't get burned like a toaster oven, and the door glass gets hotter than everything else, but as I touched it I didn't get any burns from it.
As for aesthetics, it is stainless and black. Looks awesome in my kitchen, sitting on top of the stove. The air vents out to the top of the unit so there is plenty of ability for it to vent and stay cool.
Did I mention the light? I love the light, it automatically comes on when you open the door, and can be manually activated to see how things are progressing without opening the door. Sorry, this is a very handy thing to have, so I will say it is my favorite feature of this air fryer.
If there were any concern I have, it would be that the drip pan doesn't fit in as confidently as the shelves do. You cannot sit it on top of the heating elements as that would help to ignite the grease. So when you place it into the slots, it isn't quite wide enough to give me a confident feeling it won't slip out and tilt a bit, potentially spilling grease down below. That would be a mess. Just have to carefully place this in the slots and I didn't have an issue.
This also does dehydrating of food, but so far I've never done anything like that. I'm sure it works, it does the air frying so perfectly!
Anyway, this is a top notch unit, does air frying without any problem at all. It has plenty of room to cook a dinner for a family, 4 burgers, a tray of fries, or maybe two smaller pizzas, one on each rack.
Skip over the smaller units if you have a family or like to cook multiple things at the same time - you can use both shelves to cook, and it makes life so much easier and quicker vs. cooking multiple times. You will save money on your electric bill for not running the big oven. And in the summer, you will not have the big oven or stove heating up your kitchen. I've become an air fryer maniac, and I can tell you that I know the food is healthier as I clean up the oil pan, and my whole family all says that the food tastes like food, not grease. You'll realize tater tots taste like potatoes and fried food can taste like food and not oil.

This Bella digital Air-Fryer is 10.5 qt! I thought It will take up too much space in the kitchen, actually It didn’t. It is compact design and looks elegant with its stainless finish! Touch screen control panel is bright and very responsive. 2 baking racks and 1 drip pan is sufficient to accommodate and cook food at same time. Rotisserie Is the big hit in this compact Air-Fryer. Light option to check on food status is a good addition. I just wish they had put more weight on this machine to have it stay steady, what I noticed is when closing the door the machine slides back unless I close it hard or hold it from back to get it steady. Overall, it an excellent compact machine for multiply cooking purposes.

I can't say enough about how much I love this air fryer. Its really easy to operate. Cooks food beautifully. I did a rotisserie chicken and it was perfectly done. Even the kids love using it. Don't let the size intimidate you. Don't get a smaller one either. The price was worth it.

After my last air fryer died we found this one in Best Buy and decided to buy it as it was on sale. I can’t say enough great things about it. It is insanely easy to keep clean, the functions are super easy to use, the glass front makes it so nice to check on food without having to open the fryer up and we are super excited to try out the rotisserie option. It’s large enough where I’ve been able to cook 4 burgers on the bottom tray and fill the top tray with fries. I would absolutely recommend this air fryer to anyone and would definitely recommend purchasing it over a basket air fryer any day.

It's stylish and been using it for more than a month now. The size is bigger than the usual airfryer but this one is airfyer and a convection oven as well, it looks like your usual oven became mini :D I have used this for fish, chicken, bacon, toast bread and made a flan using this. Pans are easy to clean. I have not tried this for baking yet but seems like it can but not the usual sizes. The con for me is that it gives a little loud sound when in use and it does need a little bigger space than the usual airfryer. If you're into frying, I recommend to get this less work and spatter, just leave it be and it would alert you when it's done. It has a preset button for meat, fish, baking, etc.

I upgraded from a 5 qt air fryer because I wanted to be able to make two things at once. This has shelves so you can do chicken on the bottom, fries on top, that kind of thing. I love the window and light because you can watch the magic happen. It lets you check on things without opening the door. The trays are easy to clean. And the rotisserie feature is just a bonus. Your chicken needs to be less than 4 lbs, and you have to tie it up tightly. Super tightly. My first chicken came out beautifully but it took work to get it on the rotisserie skewers properly. The fryer is also much more compact than it looks, so it doesn’t take up a lot of counter space. Looks good and works well!

I am new to the air fryer thing and did a good bit of research. After reviewing so many, this one stood out to me. Yeah there are a couple of negative reviews about the door and such but really, nothing that's major at all that one can't live with and is no big deal, at least to me. This works wonderful and I'm sold on air frying. It's big, two trays, one drip pan that can also be used as a bake pan. The pan lays on the floor of the unit under the heating element. That allows the two shelves to slide on the two sets of guides. The door comes off easily for cleaning. For the money and ease of use I rate this 10 out of 10. I love it.
