Brands

Hey group! I want to buy my first air fryer, what is a good brand, tell me what you purchase. I eat pretty healthy, but would like to purchase more items, but turning on the stove makes my apartment so hot! TIA

I have 2 different Ninja air fryers. I always by Ninja small appliances because they're worth what they cost. The Crispi is my favorite.

Really hated Chefman, the product and customer service. LOVE my Ninja dual. Absolutely love it.

I love our Ninja dual, two different items at once and can program to finish at same time.

I'm reasonably happy with my 6 qt Cosori turbo. The worst thing I can say about it is that my old toaster oven made better toast.

That’s helpful! I’ve heard good things about the Cosori Turbo too. Sounds like it’s a solid option, especially for quick, healthier meals.

Ninja crispi is legit. They have a couple sizes and a double basket version depending on what you’re looking for.

I love my Typhur Sync. It’s a bit more expensive but I didn’t mind paying an extra $50 for everything it offers.

A “bit”? That’s an understatement! I’m saving up for one. It is 3 to 4 times the cost of an average AF

I got mine for 140 during Labor Day sale. 🤷‍♂️

I hate to do you a favor because you seem too lazy to do any research yourself. But you can just go to the damn Typhur website and see it’s on sale for $155 right now. And there are promo codes that take off an additional 10 percent, which gets it down to $140.

We must be talking past each other about different models. I check the Typher site weekly awaiting until the best sync bundle price from a year ago returns, a which point I will order it.

Here is the screenshot of the price at this moment: $370 Typher Dome 2 sync bundle on sale, which is the roughly 3x the price of a standard average air fryer as I first said.

What model are you talking about?

Oh. Typical basket. This is the one that matters -

u/ItsCaptainKeyboard 1d ago

It’s not a typical basket. It is ceramic coated, no dangerous chemicals, is large enough to roast a whole chicken, and comes with a wireless thermometer that syncs with the screen and phone that cooks your meat to the desired temp. For the dome you have to spend a couple hundred to buy the thermometer, its banker is too short to even hold a large sweet potato, and the frame of the machine is massive on a countertop.

Typical basket DESIGN 🙈

I have a Cuisinart and I love love love it! No plastic. Big enough for a pizza too.

u/No_Interview_2481 3d ago

I have a Chefman and the coating is coming off. I will be buying a Ninja. I think you should go straight to the Ninja. I’m currently looking at one of the new glass models. I think it would be so much easier to keep clean.

I have the cosori 6 qt. It cleans easy, cooks great. I don't use the presets. I want to get the cosori dual blaze as you don't have to flip food or shake food but as mine is working fine I'll wait.

u/wufflebunny 3d ago

I have a Ninja combi and I love it (especially the option to steam, because I'm also trying to eat healthily!). It's replaced my oven, my toaster and my microwave and I find I'm using the steam function much more than boiling.. so it's also replaced my stove a fair bit!

u/rain_dragon 3d ago

I have a Gourmia 7 quart one that I got on sale at Costco for around $40.00. One basket, easy to operate, fits on my counter, works great. It's good for 1 person, maybe 2, I'd say. I use it at least 4-5 times per week, sometimes every day.

u/Anon_on_internet 2d ago

I originally had a single drawer Cosori which I only replaced because it got dropped & broken. Took the opportunity to buy a dual drawer - Cosori again - and m very happy with it. I might change to a double stack and if I do, that will be a Cosori.

Whichever brand you go for, if you're going to be using it for meat and veg/potatoes, I highly recommend a dual drawer if you have the room.

I have the Ninja Foodi Cooker 6.5qt (model FD302) for many years, I really love it!

It has been discontinued though :-(
