Maybe you’re buying a practical kitchen gift for your dad or your last air fryer is about to kick the bucket (kick the basket?). If you’re in the market for an air fryer, you should get one that checks all the boxes. The best air fryer will cook evenly, work fast, and provide you with the right amount of cooking area to match your average meal needs—and it should be affordably priced too. The Cuisinart Air Fryer is 50% off right now, and that is a steal.
I reviewed the Cuisinart Air Fryer and absolutely loved cooking in it. Usually I’m a basket model air fryer girl, but this oven-style air fryer won me over. It has ample space inside for roasting proteins, like a pork loin or a broiler chicken. You could even use the second rack spot to quickly roast some veggies while you get some salmon going on the lower rack.
The cooking aspect is flawless—it cooks, crisps, and browns evenly and doesn’t take much time to preheat. However, the features that really won me over were more cooking experience related. The aesthetic is simple: a classic countertop oven. The dials for temperature, time, and fan speed are all twist knobs, which is a welcome change from the usual digital touch screen, in my opinion. Last, but most importantly, this appliance is nearly silent when working. An air fryer that doesn’t sound like a truck is idling in your kitchen—can you imagine? This is why I ruled it the best overall air fryer in this roundup.
The reason you should jump on this air fryer now is because it’s normally $219.95, which is decidedly not cheap. However, Walmart has it on sale for 50% off at $109.98. It’s an incredible deal and I’m not sure how long it’ll last, but I do know it’s a purchase you won’t regret.
