I receive this Elite Platinum 5.5 qt. Air Fryer a few days ago and put it to work right away. I tried a few things as a way of testing the product but to my surprise the results were incredible. honestly didn't think it was going to be this good.
The shipping was pretty fast and the packing was excellent.
As soon as I opened the box, I noticed the front display. Very intuitive and simple to use with controls for preset programs and the option of a manual set up of temperature and timing.
The basket is really big and with room for a lot of food . I would say with an additional rack (not included) you can cook a meal for four people without any issues. (racks can be purchased anywhere for under $10. (Max 8 inches)
Once the appliance is working, there's some hot (not very hot) air coming from the back of the unit and from underneath it, but nothing serious.
The level of noise of the fan while working is very low.
Much lower than expected,
The most precious characteristic is that while cooking there's no smell or smoke whatsoever in the kitchen (with or without parchment paper in the basket)
The food comes out perfect in a few minutes and everything cooks well: Breaded chicken, regular chicken, bread, skirt steak etc.
The only issue I had that the first time I used it I had some trouble getting the basket back into the machine, but it was mostly my fault. Once I understood how it works everything went fine.
Totally love this product. Hope it will last for a long time.
I attached a few pictures (hope they come out right) check the skirt Steak. Cannot believe it was not coked in a grill!!!!!!!!

Our family was looking for an air fryer that had a larger capacity and had some power. Looked at some others in other big box stores but kept coming back to this one.
Pros: Large basket for more food. It also has some big wattage and good quiet fan to cook food easily and evenly. After cooking is the easy part because I just take a sponge and some soapy water to clean out. The food taste is the best part because it really does a great job.
Cons: The recipe book is lacking, but go to your internet connection and just look for ways to cook items in an air fryer.
Overall: great size for family clean cooking.

This air-fryer will cook a large batch of French fries, chicken tenders, or anything else. The interior basket and drawer come apart easily (be careful not to hit the button, which does have a cover over it you need to slide to use, prematurely) and cleans up with a sponge and mild soap. Note that as with any air-fryer, you will get results that are more like frying if you use a little oil — a tablespoon is plenty for a batch of fries, but you need to clean a little more carefully afterwards to make sure you don't leave any oil residue (still worth it).
The control panel gives you plenty of options with little pictures, but you can just use time and temperature if you like. Whatever you are cooking, pulling the drawer out a couple of times during the cooking cycle and quickly tossing the contents around will cook all the contents more evenly.
It's a big unit, but not heavy, so you won't mind pulling it out and putting it away. That said, you may use it so often that you just leave it on the counter.
Tip: absolutely nothing re-heats slices of pizza as well. They taste as good as or better than when the pizza came out of the oven (or came to your door) the first time.

this air fryer is awesome, it didn't come with an owners manual, so i downloaded it, and it wasn't helpful at all, so the wife and I winged it, and just right down what we did. The food turns out great, we have made chicken breasts, burgers, steak, salmon burgers, egg rolls, and teriyaki chicken.

I previously owned a different model that had some design flaws and resulted in the basket falling apart; this one works at least as well without those flaws so we are quite happy with it!

My family and I have been contemplating on purchasing an air fryer and trust me, it is totally worth it! Since our purchase, we’ve cooked so many meals, and although there is a manual to guide you how long to cook certain foods, it’s better to try and test things on your own. Typically, I like to have the heat higher than recommended and shorten the time (depending on what I’m cooking). The settings are a little annoying but it took me a few days to get it down. I was nervous about purchasing because I’ve never heard of this brand and this item was $85 off, but I have no regrets. I highly recommend this air fryer!

Can’t believe I’ve waited so long to get one of these. I’ve made just about everything in this thing and it is always perfect. If you have been contemplating getting an air fryer, you should definitely get one and try this one. No problems, easy clean up and easy to operate.
