[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have talked for quite a while about buying an air fryer. When we got this we were so excited...and it's been great.
We "fried" chicken, made burgers, baked chicken, made meatloaf, had pizza rolls.
WOW! It surpassed our expectations. and so easy to clean.
I am so glad we got this!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good Thinking - Indeed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So, I'd been hearing about air fryers for awhile, and I wondered what all the fuss was about. Air? Frying? sounded like a gimmick to me. But, I got a chance to try this one and I love it! There are recipes online specifically for air fryers and I tried lots! First, I made some frozen fries that are usually soggy in the middle when you bake them in the regular oven. The air fryer made them golden brown on the outside and tender and moist on the inside! Then, I tried home made onion rings. This thing is incredible! They were delicious. So, of course I tried frozen onion rings because making them from scratch is a real labor of love and sometimes you just can't wait that long! Again - perfect golden crunchy rings with fully cooked centers! The variety of foods that you can cook in it is amazing! I have probably tried at least 20 recipes with this air fryer and except for a bit of a learning curve (because sometimes different thickness items need different cooking times) it is SO simple to use! The control board is on top of the fryer and you push the ON button and hold it for 3 seconds and then the control buttons appear. You can change the temperature, and the cooking time with ease. And, I think this is one of my favorite things - when you pull the basket out to check on whatever is cooking, the fryer stops until you put the basket back in! So, you don't have to reset it each time you stop to check on something! The actual fryer area pulls all the way out of the body of the fryer and the basket is easily removed from the "drawer" that it is in to make loading, unloading, and cleaning easy, and both parts can be washed. One slight downside is that air fryers tend to be large. Some are VERY large! This one is mid-sized I would say. It fits on the countertop just fine but, it is light enough to put away when you aren't using it (But, that might not be too often! LOL!) On the top of the box there is a photo of the fryer and the words "Good Thinking" and I must say, Hamilton Beach seems to put a lot of effort into each item's design. If you are curious about Air Fryers, you should try this one. It won't break the bank, and it is made very well. I had wondered if Air Frying would be a fad, but after trying this one from Hamilton Beach, I believe that Air Fryers are here to stay!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy to Use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had been wanting an air fryer for a very long time, so I was very excited to finally get one!
Honestly, I was a bit intimidated at first because I'm not 100% comfortable in the kitchen, and I wasn't really sure where to start with my new appliance. It was all for nothing! I did a quick web search, and found TONS of recipes for air fryers.
I started with something that really surprised me: "hard boiled" eggs! Who knew you could make them in an air fryer?! I will never go back to boiling them again! It was so simple, and they came out great! No worrying about forgetting you have a pot boiling on the stove!
Since then, I've made several chicken dishes, and they have all turned out wonderfully! My husband thought I took cooking lessons! :)
The only downside to this air fryer is the appearance. It could be a little "prettier" in my opinion. However, it works so well, that overrides the somewhat blah look of it.
I would definitely recommend a Hamilton Beach air fryer to anyone who asked!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love Hamilton Beach products Air Fryer is a fail

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Engineering, quality control. It is the connections. I had to push in the basket lifting slightly while pushing from the back, well if you have to do that for it cook...what is the point? Let go and it just quit. I became frustrated to tears trying to get the connections to stay connected without having to hold it. I had a video of husband putting the fryer in our garbage can. He insisted because I just kept trying wanting it to work so badly. Very disappointed. I own 11 hamilton beach products and will continue to use Hamilton Beach, but I will never EVER try ANY brand of Air Fryer again. My first one a Big Boss, also failed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A little miracle!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never even think about my stove anymore. Why would I when this handy little appliance lets me cook light, flaky fish, fried treats with no oil, and even reheat leftovers with ease? Even the cleanup is a snap! I love my air fryer!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Its a fast and easy way to re heat or just make a quick meal for your kids or self. There is no pre heating waiting to happen, you place your food in the pan and start it up. Its easy to clean and does bot require alot of counter space
