Customer Ratings & Reviews

Overall: This Chefman Air Fryer works really well with various kinds of food. You don't have to wait to preheat it before cooking (big for parents that are making chicken nuggets or corn dogs). The 8 QT basket is big and worth spending extra to get it. The Good: Air Fryer works great. I've done everything from bacon to soft pretzels and they all turn out. The time you save not having to preheat the oven makes this worth it even if you don't take into consideration anything else you can do with this air fryer. The Bad: The touch screen is a bit iffy. Sometimes it takes a few clicks for the time or temp to move. This could end up being a major inconvenience as this air fryer gets older. As of right now I'd classify it as a slight annoyance.

Purchased it during black friday deals, and figured at the price its worth a shot to see how it is since I've never owned one before, bit heard great things about Air Fryers. Easy to use touch screen, huge capacity. I fit 24 wings and had room. I'll probably only cook 12 at a time to ensure every wing is evenly cooked... Fries? I was able to cook enough fries AND frozen nuggets to feed my entire family in 1 cook. If you are a family of 5 or more... this is your size air fryer. Great overall first impression into the world of airfryers. #DadApproved

Upgraded to this from a 4 quart manual air fryer with knobs. We've made chicken, steak, salmon, fries, brussel sprouts and popcorn shrimp in it. Food comes out crisp and moist. Pros: The shake warning is excellent, reminds you halfway through the cycle. Interface is easy to use and very responsive. Electronic interface makes it very easy to use. Presets are excellent. Cons: The tray on which the food sits is a very snug fit, you have to learn how to properly fit it in.

I got like 4 Air fryers and this is the best quality and performance air fryer compared to the other that cost me like $300

This is our first air fryer and so far it has been a great purchase. It is big enough to fit quite a bit of food in it and it is very easy to use. The nice look of the outside allows me to leave it out on the counter although it does take up quite a bit of room. We have cooked fries, chicken nuggets, mozzarella sticks, battered green beans and jalapeno poppers so far. They were all crispy and delicious. We are going to use it for chicken and egg rolls in the future.

Nice big basket holds a lot of food. We frequently use only this to cook our meats. Hardly ever need to use oven. Will never cook french fries in oven again. Easy clean up with removable grate. Takes up a lot of room on counter, unless you can store it somewhere else when not in use. Highly recommended.

Excellent quality. Great price, easy to use, excellent and tasty cook, lots of recipes to cook in this fryer.

Really like this air fryer. Hold a lot of food. Very easy to use and clean. I was able to purchase a very good discount.

I love this new air fryer. The bigger size is perfect for dinner and leftovers. Easy to use, looks nice. The only thing I don't like is that the little rubber bumpers on the tray inside come off. I almost lost one down the drain. Now that I know this, I take them off before I wash it, but it would be nice if they didn't come off (the bumpers on my older Chefman do not come off).

Very happy with this air fryer, I got a great deal on it. Very skeptical when trying it out but became a believer after cooking some recipes in it. I use it everyday to make a quick breakfast, it cooks the pizza rolls on another level. Makes them taste so much better than a regular big convection oven cooks them. All the grease fall down for a healthy lifestyle. Definitely a time saver and must have for that “time is money” culture.

So this was my first air fryer, and it does a pretty good job. Cooks food like it claims - like you deep fried it, but without the oil. The electronics make programming pretty simple, and the bucket is quite large. The whole unit is bigger than I expected, and takes up a lot of room. I recently purchased a combo unit that is an air fryer, convection oven toaster, etc. I will be curious how these two units compare. More on that later. I mostly purchased this item due to its great Black Friday price. Not sure I would have paid much more than that, though.

Writing this review exactly 1 year after purchase. We have used this air fryer at least twice a week since we purchased it. I think it is now one of our favorite kitchen gadgets. I cook biscuits, toast sandwiches, hot dogs, frozen foods like corn dogs and nuggets, etc. Anything I seem to put into it, comes out amazing! It has held up very well, with zero issues. Digital screen still works like new, the exterior stainless is in great condition also. The tray bottom tray insert dis have the little rubber/silicone tips fall off but it does not affect anything at all. To be honest, my wife washes the bottom insert in the dishwasher, so I think the little silicone tips got knocked off in there. They are just in place to sort of snug it down in place but as I said, they have zero affect on anything other than that. It still stays in place just fine and probably our fault for washing the tray and insert in the dishwasher all the time. I will say that the coating on the interior tray still looks great, even with not always washing it by hand. If it broke tomorrow, I'd run out and buy another immediately, that's how much we love it. I think it will be around for a couple more years, but time will tell.

This fryer has been awesome! I have used it for several frozen foods like chicken tenders, wings, and French fries which have all cooked great in this! My wife now uses it for many recipes that normally require the oven and we love it. Plenty of room to cook for more than one person and typical cooks the food quicker than what the preset features even suggest. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a quality air fryer!

I have to say that I was impressed with the service at Best Buy in Harrisburg. I read the reviews on this air fryer on line and was hoping they still had one in stock. The person on the floor had to go back to the warehouse to find me one. This is the second air fryer we purchased. This cost a little more then some of the other air fryers but is well worth it. Great size and easy to use. Food turns out perfect.

Upgraded to this because my previous one was smaller and used racks (which isn't ideal for cooking meats). Extremely happy with the room for more food and the cleaning is much easier with this one. My only compliant is sometimes the touch screen doesn't recognize my finger. It's completely possible that this is my fault for not pressing in exact position, but still annoying sometimes.

The Chefman Air fryer exceeded all expectations. This unit is sleek and incredibly easy to use. My wife and kids were asking me why we haven't had this before and I honestly didn't have an expectable answer why. Last night I read the directions, plugged it in and started cooking. I made 2 orders of french fries, 1 order of sweet potato fries and 2 orders of Chicken wings. All of them easy to do. You just push the fries button and bam they cook themselves. It sets the temperature and time. It beeps when to shake the basket. So simple it is awesome. Same goes with Chicken wings. I did extend the cooking time on the wings as I like well done wings, just my preference. The best part was the cleanup. I waited till morning and wiped it with a paper towel first. Then I washes it with the soft side of a sponge and soapy water. Spotless and so easy. This unit is just easy. This is now one of my favorite kitchen items and I assure you I am fantastic in the kitchen. I worked in a kitchen for 10 years when I was a young man. This item was on sale for sixty as a guideline. This was also a great size. I would not go smaller if this is for a family of 4 and more. This is an all around great product. I do not write many reviews but this is one amazing product.

The best air fryer we have used so far. The size is just right. Point to note is that the size is optimized due to the square shape. Works great and fast. Not too noisy like some other fryers. Looks great in the kitchen. Super easy to clean the basket. I know the ease of cleaning as i have had a chalenge cleaning others.

I absolutely love this air fryer. It cooks really fast, and I love the roomy basket with a non stick interior. Compared to my regular toaster oven, this cooks chicken breast in half the time or less. It makes great fries and roasted veggies. The basket is very easy to slide in and out thanks to the handle.

I love this air fryer. So far I have used it for french fries, fresh chicken thighs, and frozen chicken tenders. The french fries cooked the same as the oven (but I didn't shake a little oil on them first). The fresh chicken thighs were an adventure because I had never used a dry rub before. The thighs were good but my technique needs work. The frozen chicken tenders were fantastic. They were thoroughly cooked but were soft and tender unlike the microwave where they get hard. The cleanup was super easy. The timer tells you how much time is left for cooking, the temperature being used, and when to shake/turn over the food. It's very easy to use. Think about how much counter space you have and where an electrical outlet is. It is rather heavy (at least to me) so think about how far you will have to carry it from where you store it to where you will use it. I love it and would highly recommend it.

Pretty awesome. Instructions could use work, but very large basket, made home-made chicken nuggets crispy. I got it on sale for $50 and well worth it at that price. Not sure I would have paid the original price, but its hard to imagine me spending more than $100 on any non-major kitchen appliance cause I am pretty frugal. All in all, I am happy with the purchase.
