    Nice 5.2L air fryer

    The picture shows the Emerald 5.2L, but it's actually bigger than it seems to appear. Performance is great. I use this fryer for my larger cooking needs, such as more than one item at a time. It cooks evenly with no added oil or sprays. I purchased this as the "deal of the day". What a great price. I do recommend this air fryer but there is one thing you should know before purchasing. Before operation you will need to place four small screws and nuts onto the basket and tighten ( which comes included). Nothing to hard or complicated. But you will need a small screwdriver to do so. Hope you enjoy.

    What a great purchase. I have made salmon, chicken wings, sweet potato fries and regular fries. Turns out super crispy with no oil. I’ve used spray oil in wings with batter. Super easy to clean. Just soak in warm water for greasier items but usually just wipe in between with a wet paper towel. Comes with recipe book. Basket is big enough for 3 chicken breasts side by side. Worth the purchase you will never fry again.

    I have been skeptical about air fryers for some years. I broke down and bought one to see what the hype is all about. I love it! I don’t think I’ll ever go back to cooking on a stove top. It saves you from using pots and pans, cooks quick meals in 30 minutes or less, and great for busy adults. You can literally cook anything!!! Oh and this particular air fryer is easy to navigate and use.

    This a great item, and very easy to operate. The only problem for uss is that it is slow, but that is to be expected. So far we have fried chicken and venison, baked potato and French Fries. All were excellent. We do need to learn how much to adjust time for different size items, though. In some cases the recommended time over cooked, in others it does not completely cook. That is not surprising though, and necessary for almost all cooking systems.

    The Emerald 5.2 Digital Air Fryer delivers good food that is cooked quickly and efficiently. I have to admit that I did not think so, at first. Then, I used this air fryer and it changed my mind. It cooks hamburgers, chicken, fries, and even vegetables quickly and without all the added oil one usually uses. The hamburgers came out moist and delicious. It’s easy to use and the cleanup is so easy. I would have given it 5-stars but the temperature and time gauges are not lit and it’s not easily apparent which side is which.

    We use it all the time because it takes so long to fry things. Once you get used to the digital control panel it's really easy to use. The fried chicken came out a little undercooked but I just added a couple of minutes then it came out perfect. Overall, we use it quite it bit for heating up nuggets for the kids and even leftover meat. Definitely would recommend especially the good price we got from Bestbuy.

    Powerful and Large Air Fryer

    Very good air fryer especially with the adjustable temperature/timer function. I am hoping it lasts because based upon the reviews it doesn't last more than a 1/2 year. I got a great price on it so I decided to pull the trigger and I am not disappointed thus far. For cleaning, there is a detachable basket and it is dishwasher safe. So far no issues with the Teflon peeling off. It is very large so if you have a small kitchen with lacking counter space just a heads up. This 5.2L is enough to fit a 4.5-pound full chicken.

    Bought this unit on sale to keep at work. It runs quiet. This is a big unit, but a great size for group meals and my personal size pizzas fit perfectly for heating. This unit is very easy to use. I use it almost every day to make lunch at work. I like this one more than the one I have at home. I would recommend this to others when it goes on SALE.

    Fantastic appliance in the kitchen. We bake 10-12 frozen biscuits in 12 minutes without wasting time warming up a huge oven, 12-14 frozen breakfast sausages also in 12 minutes. Can be used for so many things. Best fries, onion rings in the world! Best kitchen purchase you can make. Healthier cooking option and better food why wait? These are so affordable and super easy to clean, and use on a variety of foods!!!

    This air fryer is so easy to use! There’s really no complaints, I use it for most meals and honestly it works so well to air fry food. I personally don’t like greasy food, but I do like the texture of fry foods so the air fryer does the job when it comes the frying for sure. Also it’s a healthier option with it not taking so much grease-oil to fry food.

    Absolutely love it. I wanted one large enough for the family but was a little concerned about the size and storage. It fits perfectly on our island for easy access. This one had great reviews so I got it for my husband for Christmas. Cooks food perfectly and easy for the kids to use. We’ve tried many things in the air fryer and everything came out tasting great.
