Product Information

Pros: Did a good job of making delicious, evenly cooked foods, interior light, uses space efficiently, fits pizzas up to 13 inches in diameter, easy to use and clean

I sprayed olive oil on 8 ounces of broccoli florets and cooked them for 10 minutes at 375 degrees. Then, I evaluated the broccoli for even cooking and doneness. If necessary, I added extra time. I cooked 8 ounces of Ore-Ida Extra Crispy Fast Food French Fries, assessing for doneness and even cooking. I cooked them for 8 minutes at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. I added time to reach a golden brown appearance. The Crispy Fryer XXL is suitable for the whole family, thanks to its very large capacity of 5.2 litresThe Dreo Aircrisp Pro Air Fryer is the best compact air fryer we tested, making perfect wings and fries while using space efficiently. The mean time until the fries were done was 10 minutes. Only the Elite Gourmet air fryer failed to produce delicious, evenly cooked fries. Controls: Look for a small air fryer with intuitive controls, so you don't have to keep referencing the user manual. Dial-controlled air fryers are easy to set, though they don't allow for precise control. They're also harder to use if your hands are wet. Digital controls offer precise control, but may require pressing several buttons to program the settings you want.

The Dreo Aircrisp Pro Air Fryer was among the top three performers in speed and quality in each cooking test. All the units struggled to cook fresh broccoli evenly, but the Dreo did the best, coming the closest to balancing crispy-but-not-burnt florets and tender stems. The wings and fries came out perfectly crispy and evenly cooked. The Dash air fryer took less than two minutes to set up, and I didn't need the instructions. However, I didn't immediately recognize that I need to press the time and temp buttons to make adjustments. Also, the basket doesn't slide in smoothly — you need to wiggle it in for it to fit right. The low-profile design of the Ninja Digital Air Fry Countertop Oven allows it to fit in tight spaces and it can even be stored vertically to free up counter space. Yet, the interior can still accommodate pizzas up to 13 inches in diameter. The eight presets include baking without convection, toasting, and dehydration, all useful and not commonly found in pod air fryers.The Dash Digital Air Fryer was the best of the three compact Dash air fryers I tested. It makes efficient use of its small footprint, but if you don't want to keep it on your counter, it features a handle and is lightweight enough to store easily. The FR-6996 Crispy Fryer XXL is safe to use. The air fryer is provided with overheat protection so you will not have to worry about the fryer overheating. You can always safely remove the basket, thanks to the cool touch handle. The crispy fryer will always stand stable on your counter top thanks to the non-slip feet. The Tristar Crispy Fryer XXL has an extra large capacity allowing you to cook up to 1.2 kilograms of fries in one batch, more than enough for the whole family. Thanks to the high speed air convection, you will have the crunchiest results without using oil or with just a little bit of oil, therefore, the fries are less fat and more healthy. You can also use the crispy fryer to bake, grill or roast. This allows you to easily prepare vegetables, meat and fish in the air fryer, as well as cakes and pies. Laurie Fleming, the creator of Fork To Spoon, advises against anything smaller than 4 quarts. "If you have a hamburger and french fries, you don't really want a 2-quart," said Fleming. She suggests 4 to 6 quarts. We agree with Fleming, but wanted to give a tiny option for individuals: we recommend the 2.2-quart Dash air fryer as the best small air fryer for one. Brushing the burger with tangy mustard and spicy Tabasco chipotle sauce adds an incredible layer of flavour to this burger. With crispy bacon, melty Red Leicester cheese, lashings of ketchup and homemade burger sauce, it’s unbeatable. Swap the minced beef for pork or try a mixture of the two. Tasty served with potato wedges or a slaw. Ideal for cooking in the air-fryer.

Fleming also suggests 4 to 6 quarts for two people. "I always advise people to buy bigger because if you are cooking for two people, you really want the option to make the whole meal in the air fryer," she said.Choose a small air fryer that is convenient to use, makes efficient use of space, and doesn't have a bunch of features you won't use. Of the pod air fryers I tested, the Dreo had the best exterior-size-to-food-capacity ratio, meaning it uses the space it takes up efficiently. You can keep items on top of the air fryer when it's not in use, but you'll need to remove the items to use it. At 3.6 quarts, I recommend this as the best small air fryer for two people. The Ninja Digital Air Fry Oven has an interior light, cooks perfect wings, and has a small footprint that still accommodates a 13-inch pizza. Size and capacity: If you plan to keep your air fryer on the counter, you don't want it to take up too much space. Look for a unit that's easy to store if you don't plan on keeping it out. A small air fryer should make efficient use of the footprint it requires. In general, we recommend the largest capacity that you can fit because it gives you more flexibility in what you can make. The measurements in this guide are my own: I didn't take the manufacturer's word for it. I halved this recipe, cooking 8 ounces of wings at 400 degrees for 16 minutes, flipping halfway through. I assessed the wings for even cooking and crispiness.
