CUISINART Basket Air Fryer

Cuisinart excellent products

I love this appliance. It heats quickly, cooks evenly and is quiet. It air fries, bakes and broils. It is large enough to cook for a family of 4, and the square size instead of round like you see in many air fryers makes it easy to arrange food in a single layer, etc. Also this thing is a breeze to clean (I take out the internal tray and put that in the dishwasher, and then literally wipe out the inside with a wet paper towel and a little bit of dishwashing liquid if needed). I never put the whole drawer into the dishwasher like some reviewers are saying that they do. I don’t think the drawer is meant to go into the dishwasher, plus it is super easy just to wipe out (totally non stick), or even quickly rinse just the inside with some warm water. But I would never place the entire drawer into a dishwasher. I never use the preset buttons, and the toss reminder is not really that helpful to me, but others may appreciate those options. The tray which sits inside the drawer has “rubber”-like (heat safe obviously) feet on it which prevents it from falling out if you want to dump the food out by turning the basket over which turns out to be more helpful than one would think. But again it comes out easily for cleaning in the dishwasher. I do have a few minor issues with this appliance: 1) you can’t switch from cooking styles without turning the entire unit off, 2) I wish the buttons to adjust the heat and temperature were not electronic because you have to push and push and push to get to the right time or temperature that you want which gets irritating, 3) I wish it had a setting to leave the light on instead of having it go off after a minute or two. 4) Lastly, it is heavy (as in well built) but I do not like to keep it on my counter (it’s pretty big) and so it is somewhat hard for me to lift above my head to put into a cabinet. But even with all of those issues I still give it five stars because it operates beautifully.

This is the best air fryer I have used better than the $300 dollar one I used. This cooks the food great and easily clean up. I highly recommend buying this one.

This is my first basket air fryer, I have a big and bulky airfryer oven combo as well. Thought I would try the basket style mainly for easier cleanup and it’s smaller. I got it yesterday and have used it 3 times already. Didn’t bother reading the instruction manual as all the buttons on the front of the machine are self explanatory. First thing I made was roasted artichokes. I used a paper liner for easier cleanup and they turned out beautifully. Next was hasselback potatoes, and this am I made diced breakfast potatoes. This Cuisinart is easy to use, quieter than my other machine, and love all the features it has. The turn/flip food alert is great, you can turn it on or off. Also has a keep warm function. There are buttons for wings, fries, etc. or you can adjust the temperature and timer for what ever you are making. I find it is durable and high quality, and the 6 quart is a great size. My only complaint is the crisper unit is somewhat flimsy, and feel like it will break easily. Looking forward to making my husband some wings next weekend. Overall I am highly satisfied and happy with this purchase.

I am late to the Air Fryer game. I Love Cuisinart products. This air fryer hits all my needs, it has amazing cooking speed, cleanup is fast, healthier foods, moisture for my meats and crispiness for veggies, meats etc. I Highly recommend this air fryer. It matches my other Cuisinart products also. If you are a late comer to air fryer like me get this one now it has been a life saver especially with the Hot Heat so far this summer.
