Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’m new to air frying and wondered how good this would be, given the low price. All I can say, is it’s awesome!! I usually only cook for 1 or 2, so the size is perfect. It takes up very little space on my countertop (see pics, next to roll of paper towels; it’s <8” diameter-about the size of a salad plate), it’s quiet, and the non-stick coating makes cleaning a breeze. The analog timer is similar to an old school microwave, which didn’t bother me. Nice little recipe book included. Everything I’ve tried (sweet potato fries, tofu, fish, shrimp) has been delicious. Don’t hesitate to buy!

For one person this air fryer is perfect. I used to own another one but 2.6qt, even is smaller, so far for me it fits my food in a good proportion. Is quite (I assume is because of the size) and doesn’t take much space. What I like the most is the fact that the basket is easy to wash

This thing works like a champ and I haven't had any problems as others may have had. The sweet spot for cooking one serving is 12 to 15 minutes. The plastic it's made of does give off an odor so I keep it on the lanai outside. I dump whatever I'm cooking onto a plate and leave the pan outside to cool. Then I bring the pan indoors and splash in some liquid soap Inside and fill it halfway up with water to soak a while. I only use paper towels to wipe the inside and it's held up without any issues. Things I've cooked include: french fries, tater tots, eggrolls, onion rings, one 3rd of a link of turkey sausage cut in half and poked with a fork and combinations of the previous items, 5 ounce burger pressed flat and seasoned before putting it in. It only makes enough for one person and that might be good if you're trying to control portions. I've thought about getting another one so I could cook a main course and a side dish at the same time. 1000 watts is equivalent to 8 Amps so you couldn't put 2 of these on the same circuit that typically carries 15 Amps max. Emerald also makes a 3 quart air fryer that costs a little more, but I can't vouch for the dependability of that model.

My curiosity started to peak about the 'Air Fryer Craze', so i did my homework (research) on purchasing one, i came across the Emerald 1800 (baby) air fryer for $19.99 on bestbuy.com, i read many of the reviews, and the positive results many people reported about this item. So, i made my purchase, and i will say, i agree with the many positive reviews, my chicken and fries come out very tasty, i've been using it Everyday, it is one appliance that i always look forward to using due to the positive results. Besides the fore mentioned foods, I've done hard boiled eggs, hot dogs, i'm looking forward to 'frying' other items in this fryer. I have never been one to 'outright cook' meals for myself, (i pretty much consider myself 'Mr. Microwave' when it comes to 'cooking', but this little fryer makes cooking just about a no-brainer for me (that's my speed) lol. So, it is nice to wake up everyday, and know i will be making something tasty in the Emerald...(they named it right), it is a 'Gem' of an item !.

Love this air-fryer. Small and compact so doesn’t use a lot of counter space. Frozen fries come out so golden brown and crisp, I was blown away. Still exploring other dishes. Worth the investment.

I was on the fence about buying one for awhile, but the price was unbeatable, so I gave it a try. I love it! It's easy to use and the food comes out great.

Easy to use excellent fryer every thing comes out perfect

It works wonders when I do not feel like cooking. My grand sugars cook their own chicken nuggets and onion wings. No more eating out. Now they are learning to cook a pork chop. We are learning a lot of things to keep me from the stove. They even cook for me.

Best thing to fry frozen foods such as shrimp, fries, and mini tacos. I was hoping it would revive restaurant French fries but it just leaves them hot and soggy. It does revive restaurant fried fish. Just watch that it’s not overcook/reheated. A pleasant surprise it reheats restaurant sour dough bread back to its fresh out of the oven freshness. So go ahead and ask for more sour dough bread without fear it will soon turn hard and stale and hard to revive.

Works extremely well especially for the price. I paid a little over $21 for this and I thought it would be cheaply made but no it's not. Great buy at Best Buy.

First Air Fryer and so far so Good. My kids love it.

This is my first air fryer and I can say that it is perfect. It makes all frozen fried foods taste phenomenal! I can’t wait to try it on other foods. Awesome price to add!

Best First Air Fryer! I Had to get a bigger one and I am so Happy Happy!

It works well as a small air fryer for one person. But the interior non-stick coating is no longer non-stick. Always hand-cleaned.

Came across this air fryer for $19.99. I love my full size one so I got this one for my job.

This item so nice and affordable price, love it's!!!!!
