Customer Ratings & Reviews

Excellent purchase i got more than i expected i really enjoyed

PURCHASED JAN 2025 AND IT WENT OUT THIS MORNING ...JUST 10 MONTTHS ... LOVE BELLA AND HAD TO REPURCHASE A NEW ONE :(

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.

Piece of crap.....................................

very quickly became non-functional, I do not recommend buying this product.

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.

I order new one but they Sent me open box. Bad experience

Item arrived damaged had to be returned only good part was service desk employee was very helpful and returned item quickly and did apologize for inconvenience

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!!

This is probably why it’s 50% off because it’s a piece of human shjt. Turns on but won’t start.

Best Buy representative was not able to explain or interpret product use and its warranty

The power light blinks non-stop when unit isnt being used , a small annoyance.

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.

The bella PRO air fryer comes with 10 preset defaults. Each preset is adjustable as to temperatures and time. There is however a range of each temperature/time depending on your selection. As an example of this the Bake preset default is 25 minutes and 350 degrees Fahrenheit. You can adjust the time from a low of 1 minute to a high of 60 minutes and a temperature between 170 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. The frying basket and crisping plate are coated with bella’s EverGood ceramic. This allows for rapid food release and easier cleanup. The basket holds 8 quarts of food or 6.6 pounds of weight. Cleanup of the basket and smart crisp plate is easily completed using hot soapy water, taking care not to damage the EverGood ceramic coating. The outside of base machine can be accomplished utilizing a soft damp towel. It is recommended that you keep the box to store the unit. Having used Air Fryers for many years I found this unit to be compatible with other brands costing more. The versatility of this unit is unmatched. I believe the best feature of this unit is the basket. In case of an emergency or to add something to the basket it shuts off if you remove the basket and will restart after reinstallation and the timer will automatically continue to count down. You can also add more time if needed just by hitting the timer plus symbol.

This air fryer is a significant upgrade from the toaster over my 82 year old father had before it. He loves the cooking options which make it easy for him to make a quick meal. He says it is very easy to clean, too.

At 8 quarts, a lot of air fryer at a very reasonable price. Have used it several times and it performed very well. Also surprised at ease of cleaning which I attribute to its non-stick pan surface.

So far so good. I have cooked bacon and chicken it this, with good results. Also, the standard prepackaged foods crisp up nicely. I bought this on sale for less than $50, so it was priced right for me. Does take up a lot of space though. Would recommend it.

This air fryer is easy to use and with an eight quart capacity there's enough room to cook for a large family.

After using this air fryer for about a week, I am pleased with how well it works. For starters, I like the digital controls and notifications. The digital controls let you set the exact temperature and time, which is difficult to do on my old air fryer that has knob controls, and that have worn off over time. Also, the notification of when the fryer is preheated is nice, as well as the notification you get to shake the basket half way through the timer. Another really nice feature of this fryer is that the interior is coated with something called EverGood ceramic. It is made without any of the harmful lead, cadmium or other coatings. So far, nothing has stuck to any of the sides or the crisping tray, and cleaning has been very easy. There is a rapid release on the basket so you can literally just pull it out of the fryer to empty the contents, or to wash the basket. Cleaning has been very quick and hassle free. After cleaning I usually run it for a few minutes with the basket in to sterilize and dry it out before storing. Two other features are nice to have. The first is the size of the basket. It says it is 8 quarts and I would say it is rather large. It can hold a lot of food at once, which can save time compared to having to cook multiple batches. The other feature is the built in cooking features. They are nice because they give you the recommended cooking temperature and time with just the touch of one button - you don't have to look up the recipes to cook. Overall, I am pleased with this air fryer and will probably go out of my way to find some new recipes to cook in it this week.

works great, very easy to use with the presets, and has a temp , and manual timer
