    A Great Kitchen Addition

    We've had an air fryer for a few years, but it's mostly sat idle in our kitchen. We've only used it a handful of times, mostly for recipes that specifically called for an air fryer. But all that changed when we got our hands on the bella Pro SmartCrisp. Here's why it's become our go-to kitchen appliance. This air fryer is perfect for my family. The 8-quart capacity is spacious enough to cook meals for everyone, even my three teenage sons with bottomless stomachs. We've made a variety of dishes in it, including wings, fries, chicken parm, and kabobs, and everything has come out delicious. It's also great for reheating food and baking side dishes. The touchscreen is user-friendly, and it's easy to keep track of what you're cooking. Even my son was able to use it while I cooked other dishes on the stove. A helpful feature is the shake reminder, which lets you know when it's time to shake whatever you're cooking. This is all great, but my favorite feature is the EverGood ceramic nonstick coating. It makes cleanup and removing food from the basket a breeze. With my big family, we usually make multiple batches of whatever we're cooking. The crisping tray and basket make it easy to shake out your food onto a serving tray. That EverGood ceramic coating ensures food slides right out. Plus, cleanup is a snap. Since nothing sticks to the inside or crisping tray, most of the food is already out. It's easy to clean in the sink with soap and water. In the short time since we got the bella Pro SmartCrisp Air Fryer, it's become one of the hardest-working appliances in our kitchen, right up there with our blender. The air frying feature is a game-changer, but the baking and reheating functions are super handy too, especially with the extra-large basket. And since it's a breeze to clean thanks to the EverGood ceramic coating, this air fryer has quickly become an indispensable tool in our cooking repertoire. Highly recommended!

    Great for cooking for your horde

    For such a simple device that just blows forced air to heat food, these things have become indispensable and this one works perfectly for my family of five. Being 8 quarts means I can get enough french fries into the Bella Air Fryer in one shot for the family. The use of the Air Fryer is really simple, and the touch screen provides you with several options and times, which is great if you're new to these devices. The suggestions and defaults for the food are a good starting point and I love the fact I don't have to heat a whole oven to cook, which helps keep the kitchen a bit cooler and uses less electricity, which is a great benefit. Cleanup is also very quick and simple. They coated the inside basket and little fryer rack on the bottom which helps the air get under the food with ceramic. This makes cleanup much easier and less scrubbing to get it clean and help reduce food from sticking in the basket to the basket. Means I don't have to use a thick coat of oil to make sure my food doesn't stick, just a quick spritz and I'm good I find. The basket too is huge I've actually done a whole chicken in basket and had it come out great. Knowing that it will take up a bit more space on the counter, but if you need to cook a chicken, or a few pounds of French Fries for the hungry horde can't go wrong and you won't spend hours after cleaning it. Highly recommend for those who need an Air Fryer for a horde.

    An Air fryer that Stays Clean!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I have owned and tried many air fryer's over the years, and they all have one thing in common; the metal plates that hold your food get disgustingly gross and are very hard to clean. Finally, someone has made a grate that is easy to clean, durable, and non stick and great at crisping up your food! Now I normally do not get that excited over an air fryer, but the EverGood ceramic plate that this bella air fryer comes with does excite me. I have cooked steak, potatoes, frozen foods, and clean up has been as easy as just rinsing off and wiping real quick with soap and water. But here is the beauty.... nothing sticks to this tray either. With the metal trays lot's of other air fryers use with tons of tiny grooves where food just sticks everywhere, bella's EverGood ceramic just has food sliding around with no oil needed, even after cooking whatever it is you're cooking, your food still doesn't stick. As far as how well it cooks, this thing is pretty powerful and can crisp up some frozen tater tots in a matter of minutes. It is more powerful than other air fryers I have used so it took some adjusting the temperatures and times as if I tried it with what I was accustomed to with other air fryers, I would end up overcooking whatever it was. Pre-heating is quite fast, within a couple of minutes and I love that you can just put your food in there while it is pre heating and not have to go back later after it is done pre-heating in order to have the timer start. Once it is done pre-heating, it will simply start the cooking timer immediately after; it is simple, but trust me, some other products require manual intervention after pre-heating which is annoying. The touch screen is responsive, I appreciate the different pre-set modes they have and that adjusting the temperature and time is easy to do. This is a great air fryer for anyone who needs something that is easy to clean, easy to use, and provides great results with whatever it is you want to air fry. Seriously, some of the best tater tots I've cooked... the perfect crisp!!

    Air Fryer was lost reached out to Best Buy customer service after realizing a week later I ordered it, I was told if FedEx loses it, it’s not Best Buy responsibility. Nice wouldn’t it be Best Buy responsibility to notify me I wouldn’t not be receiving it and money is kept by Best Buy. Yes because I realized it if I didn’t Best Buy would never send me one. Agent says I will send another one for Free and I said how is that free I paid for it and I never got one

    We've had Bella air fryers for years, but we hate that this one does not allow you to turn off the pre-heat option. We are having to adjust all of our recipes and the cook times are very different now that we have to wait for it to preheat before the timer starts.

    Air fryers might be everywhere now, but I’m a loyal Bella fan, having had a few of their air fryer models in the past. My air fryer journey has evolved because I can’t resist the latest and greatest releases in tech and products, so I’ve upgraded a few times and gifted my previous ones to friends and family. The new Bella Pro SmartCrisp 8 qt air fryer is the perfect addition, with its size hitting the sweet spot. It’s large enough to prepare a meal for my family of four, yet doesn’t take over my counter space. Plus, it’s got that sleek, modern appeal with its stainless steel and black finish, and a responsive touchscreen control panel that’s both intuitive and simple enough to use. This air fryer has all the cooking programs you’d expect, along with a 60-minute timer that’s more than sufficient to cook just about anything to perfection. One cool feature that’s new to this model is the “shake feature,” which gives you a friendly reminder during cooking to “shake” your food. While I’ve seen similar alerts in other air fryers for flipping food, this shake reminder feels a little more refined and is a nice touch for even cooking. I’ve cooked up a variety of meals already—fried chicken, wings, French fries, veggies like broccoli…(yes, air-fried broccoli is amazing), and even grilled cheese—and each dish has come out with a perfect crispy texture. But one of the most resourceful features with this Bella Pro is the ease of cleaning. If you’ve used air fryers before, you know the struggle… cooking baskets and racks can be tough to clean, especially after cooking meats or anything with grease. Bella has really stepped up here by adding a ceramic nonstick coating to the cooking basket. For anyone who has used ceramic cookware, you know how much easier this makes cleaning up. I no longer have to soak or scrub endlessly. The ceramic coating really cuts down on cleaning time and makes the process so much less frustrating. If you’re on the hunt to upgrade from an older model, want to add a versatile cooking tool to your kitchen, or are just looking for the perfect all-purpose gift, Bella has nailed it with this Pro SmartCrisp model. It’s a reliable, easy-to-clean, and family-friendly air fryer that’s perfect for everyday use at a great price.

    Loving both Non-Stick & Non-Toxic

    The Bella PRO – SmartCrisp 8-qt Touchscreen Air Fryer is the latest update in their series of variably sized and functioned air fryers. Available in 3 colors- stainless steel, brick red, and oatmilk, this 8-quart air fryer has a large, single compartment that is about 11 inches in diameter and 5 ½ inches deep minus the crisping tray. It is sturdy in build, weighs almost 10 lbs., and has a touchscreen digital display that is self-explanatory and easy to use. There are 4 function buttons (bake, roast, reheat, and warm), 6 preset food modes, a power button, start/stop button, and the increase and decrease temperature and time buttons. The SmartCrisp heats up quickly with temperatures up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and it has a 60 minute timer. It is classically attractive in the black/stainless steel color combination and would look great on any kitchen counter. In order to accommodate food for up to 8 people this air fryer is fairly large in size and requires about 13 inches of under the counter clearance. The Evergood Ceramic Nonstick coating over aluminum appears to work as advertised and provides superior antiadherent properties. Without adding oil the food gets crisp and does not stick to the basket. Cooking food from a frozen state leaves much less residue in the basket than room temperature foods. The coating makes cleanup simple, usually requiring only a damp paper towel once cooled. The removable parts are supposed to be dishwasher safe but I’ve found over time “dishwasher safe” coatings are affected so I choose to hand wash and air dry all of the removable parts. Bella PRO also advertises that their Evergood Ceramic Nonstick coating is made without the use of PFAS, PFOS, PTFE, lead, or cadmium which are all substances that have been shown to be toxic and/or have negative health effects. As a consumer I expect and appreciate that a company manufactures products that are safe, non-toxic, readily available, and affordable. I have been more than satisfied with the performance of this air fryer. Having a large family often results in having to cook several batches of food in order to feed everyone. The addition of this large sized, single basket fryer allows me to cut my cooking time in half when using it simultaneously with my existing air fryer. So far I have cooked many different frozen foods, fresh fish, steak, and reheated pizza in it. It definitely performs as promised but only time will tell if the Evergood Ceramic coating will retain its nonstick property. I definitely recommend this user-friendly air fryer and I rate it 5 stars.

    This new large air fryer from Bella turned out to be a speedier cooker than I expected. Because it is very large, I thought it might be slower, but it was as fast as smaller units.. When I chose to cook just two Italian sausage links as my first use, I was surprised that it cooked them perfectly and quickly. I then tried two sausage links in a smaller air fryer; it took more time. So that was a pleasant surprise. Tip of the cap to the Bella engineers who balanced the size and power perfectly to preheat quickly and cook efficiently. Doing cleanup I noticed that the entire unit is non-stick and cleaned easily. Bella is using a fantastic ceramic coating. Also, since it round, there is no place for food to hide in corners during cleanup. The crisping tray which fit snugly in the interior was easy to clean as it is non-stick as well. The crisping tray has 4 nice bumpers that make sure it fits right and sits off the bottom. I did burn some hamburgers in the unit (my fault), but no sticking whatsoever, cleaned up with a paper towel - wow. I checked out the 10 presets and realized these presets covered about 80% of what I would use the unit for. Of course you don't need to use the presets but I think you will find that they are indispensable and well thought out - another tip of the cap to the design engineers at Bella. The display screen is easy to read, no tiny symbols or small letters, also well done by the designers especially for older eyes. There is a convenient handle in the back so that when you have a large item like a 5 pound chicken, which I cooked; you can easily lift this unit using the front handle and the handy back handle. This is the only time I've seen this back handle feature - very nice. The user guide is well written and clear. Although the guide covered many types of food to cook and how to utilize the presets, I think a larger recipe booklet would be a nice touch to add since this cooker is big enough for some dandy recipes. This unit has an excellent 2 year warranty not just 90 days. I was impressed by the sturdy build and just plain functional and easy to use design. I would highly recommend this air fryer for large and small meals.
