I got this air fryer on April 12th, 2025. I was an alright air fryer, albeit pretty loud compared to other ones I've used. It had space for what I needed to put in there and everything was going fine. But then on November 2nd, when I wanted to trying making tostadas, it wouldn't turn on. I plugged it in only for it to light up for a millisecond. I unplugged it and tried again and the screen displayed 8:88 8:88. No buttons were responsive. I tried different outlets and had the same results until it couldn't even put up an effort to turn on. I'm disappointed because we have another air fryer that's been going strong for probably 2 years now (a different brand). I'm not sure what happened but I don't think I'll be buying Bella Air Fryers from now on.

This is our 2nd bella air fryer. First one was used extensively and nothing was wrong with it but wanted a fresh unit. We donated the frist one and bought this one. Very similar unit in function, design, and push button optins. However, this new one for some reason when its off, the power light blinks continuously (annoying).

Immensely Useful - Cook Anything Air Fryer

bella PRO - SmartCrisp 8-qt. Touchscreen Air Fryer (Model: 90223)
The Bella Pro takes another step towards making our conventional and inefficient built-in ovens irrelevant. You won’t complain. With its tight, fully sealed, large-but-reasonable cooking chamber the Bella SmartCrisp drives heated air all around our food resulting in well cooked dishes that have an inviting crisp finish. And this takes less time and uses less energy. Cleanup was easier than ever. Nothing sticks to this ceramic surface.
Using the SmartCrisp: I really like a control panel that is so intuitive it requires no searching into the User Guide. The Power Button does just that and should be used at the end of cooking to disconnect the Air Fryer. One push PreSets get you the usual selection of Bake, Roast and typical foods (French Fries etc) and some unusual (fish, bacon) with easy adjustment to the temperature and timing parameters as you learn your machine. Or, simply set a time and temperature and create your own cooking chart. A Start/Stop button initiates the cooking when not using the PreSets or if you want to interrupt cooking. In any event, Bella suggests having a meat thermometer to be sure you have cooked through thicker pieces.
PERFORMANCE:
PORK CHOPS or chicken breast filets: We have developed some decent techniques with our grill and thick bone-in chops, but with thinner, boneless food like chicken or pork, it’s been hit or miss. We may have found our fool-proof solution. With the bella SmartCrisp, we slightly oiled up our medium size chops. We then used a nice coating of onion and garlic salt followed by Italian herbs. At our manual settings of 400 degrees and 12 minutes we had the very best chops, very moist and quite tender. It was a huge win. With little effort.
FRENCH FRIES - super thin: Just cooking regular french fries seemed too easy. It’s why these Air Fryers are bought, right? We bought these thin style which are a bit more challenging. Getting the time and heat just right would make the difference between burned-to-a-crisp and limp. Spoiler: they came out great, but it may have been luck. Using the suggested 10 minute minimum time with 400 degree temperature, and after some confusion about starting the cook, I pulled the fries at the “shake” audio alert, and the fries were already, and perfectly cooked. Yikes, This was at the halfway (ignoring the restart cycle) cooking point!
This also highlights one of issues with the SmartCrisp. Using the preset French Fry setting changes how the fryer works. After preheating, the fryer requires you do NOTHING but put the food in the basket and let it cook. However, the countdown timer only reads minutes, with no seconds. So, it looks like nothing is happening for a full minute. You’re tempted to press the start button to be sure. Guilty. Ugh. Now you’ve shut off the cooking and have to start over. Reading the instruction for preset cooking is not very helpful because it seems like you’re being told to press start. Nope. Our second batch was done correctly and revealed just how fast this oven cooks. 400 Degrees and 8 minutes!
NOISE LEVEL: The bella SmartCrisp has managed to contain the inevitable blower noise to a very low level, barely above average kitchen activity. I measured 54dB from a few feet away and it was the lower frequency, far less annoying sound.
CLEANING after the cook: The design of the basket is so slick, smooth with no seams that cleaning takes seconds. The grid insert is similarly smooth and easy to quickly clean. The SmartCrisp has a remarkably slick ceramic surface which defies anything sticking. Use whatever you want to cleanup. The entire chamber is so large, that it’s easy to use whatever your favorite sponge, towelettes, or cloth is and follow up with a wipe.
ANNOYANCES: bella, you really need to add the seconds to your timer. It improves confidence that the fryer has actually initiated the cooking, and that it is still cooking, as well as helping us judge how to prep our companion cooking tasks. Also, a well designed and full featured product like this deserves a more impressive user guide and menu suggestions.
RECOMMENDATIONS: The bella Pro SmartCrisp is a very well designed, high capacity Air Fryer that makes preparing meals fun and convenient. We quickly learned to accommodate to the SmartCrisp’s control panel and we get consistent results. It encourages imaginative cooks to explore a different approach to some favorite dishes, and we’ve found ourselves loving the results. Easy to recommend.

Great Air Fryer. Simple To Use And Clean.

What I Liked:
It has very simplistic cylindrical design with a handle and a very intuitive touch screen.
The touch screen handles all function settings including power on and off and start and stop.
Now, its a larger appliance so make sure you have the counter and or cabinet space for it.
It has multiple presets with names of foods as well as recomended times and temperatures.
Adjusting the presets is easy right on the touch screen, making it a manual setting which I find usually works out the best for me.
As with any cooking appliance cooking times and temparatures can vary from one appliance to another so I like to keep a close eye on things when I first use them on my most commonly cooked foods.
I went with the bag settings on some chicken bites and potato tots and the results were great.
I did need to give the chicken another minute or two to get them as crisp as we like them.
As for baking, a few corn muffins as a test of that feature turned out well.
This unit will preheat automatically once you hit the start button and it took around 4 minuets to reach 360 degrees. That did not affect the doneness of anything I cooked today and preheat is not a feature I usually use when I have an option.
It will display the temperature and time remaining on the cook.
A shake reminder to shake will sound as you cook to redistribute and turn the foods that need it.
It's EverGood ceramic coated inside virtually elimiates food sticking to it and makes cleanup ever so simple.
Bella give you a 2 year warranty, which not many small appliances do these days.
The huge 8 quart capacity makes this a very versitile appliance giving you the ability to cook both small and large batches of foods such as fries, nuggets etc and the ability to cook a family size roast, chicken or whole turkey breast.
What I did not like:
It is not a deal breaker at all but I wish the preheat function could be skipped if not desired.
Other than that one small preferance of mine, its really a very nice machine.

Arrived Damaged

I purchased this product to replace my previous airfryer, but unfortunately I am scared to even use it. It arrived damaged (although packaging seems fine) and appears to be refurbished with faint scratches on the panel. When I purchased this I expected it to be a brand new appliance. Not sure what would happen if I turn on to use this airfryer, since the heating mechanism appears to be inside and above on the upper part of the unit. Hopefully this is uncommon, and they will send me an exchange. Will update if things work out.
