I've tested plenty of air fryers — from a tiny 2L single-drawer model to a large 5.5L air fryer oven — and it's safe to say that there's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to this admittedly handy appliance.
The best air fryer is a great investment if you're fed up with waiting for your oven to preheat, and if you want to speed things up in the kitchen. A year ago, I was using my air fryer daily, but then I moved house and didn't have the countertop space for it, so it was put in a cupboard and forgotten about. Recently, I was sent the newest compact air fryer from Instant Pot, and since then, my oven has been out of business.
