Featuring a 2L capacity, this large air fryer can cook a variety of low-fat meals using little or no oil. Combining your favourite gadgets into one machine saves you from having numerous appliances on your kitchen counter, which we all know can be a pain, especially if you have limited space. It works with little to no oil and gets to work in just five minutes, thanks to the fast pre-heating time feature. We judge the air fryers on how well they cook the food, how crisp the finish is, how long food takes to cook, how easy the machine is to use, how easy is it to clean, and how many extra capabilities/functions it has.
