[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don’t like appliances in my counter but this little fellow can have any place it wants. I’ve just had it a couple of weeks and have been experimenting with good types and recipes. I’m due I’ll have a failure but not yet. Everything has been easy and delicious
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect new Cuisinart appliance to add to the countertop. Perfect size for 1/2 people . Air fry , roast and bake options. Toss reminder is perfect so you can shake or flip your food for the most even cook . Has a light option, which my previous air fryer didn’t have 10/10 would recommend . I use it daily !!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased my first air fryer 3 weeks ago and I have used it nearly every day since! I bought this small model because it's just for me and I also trust the brand name, Cuisinart. I very much recommend it if you need a small starter air fryer.

It took me more than a year to convince myself that I needed this little wonder. Now I'm thinking about all the wings, fish tacos, fries, pork chops, bacon, etc. etc. that I missed out on during my indecision, Perfect size for one or two. Cleanup is a breeze. Don't be like me. Get yours now and start air frying. You can thank me later.

Quiet operation, even cooking, easy clean. Love the view window and toss reminders. Lots of options. Full-featured with a smaller footprint.

Works great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The air fryer was easy to get started after I read the directions and checked out some recipes online for air fryers. It is very quiet . My first dish I made panko crusted chicken thighs. The basket is a little small in my opinion. It did hold 2 thighs and they did turn out great with crispy golden skin and moist juicy meat. 12 minutes skin down then turned them for an additional 6 minutes yielded 2 perfectly cooked thighs. This is a good size for 1-2 people but too small for any more than that or you will be batch cooking constantly. I like that it takes very little oil to cook thighs in the fryer. I rubbed them with EVOO and then breaded without using an egg wash. I do plan to try with a flower coating,egg wash and then panko crumbs to see the difference.The chicken is best served hot from the fryer.Leftover chicken needs a few minutes in the fryer to recrisp.The controls are intuitive to use.Clean up is easy , everything is nonstick.Takes little space.No oil splatter.

Crispy & Compact

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Don't let this compact air fryer fool you—it's a game-changer in the kitchen. Perfect for my small kitchen, where every surface space counts. It fits on countertops, shelves, or cabinets with ease. Using it is simple: place the removable metal grate in the drawer, add food and use the touch-sensitive buttons. The preset options like 'French Fries' make cooking a breeze. It even alerts you to toss food halfway through. Also, after cooking, the grate insert doesn't fall out when you dump your food onto your plate. The manual offers recommended temps and recipes, and it cooks frozen food thoroughly with impressive crispiness. The cable is a good length for tabletop use and it conveniently wraps up at the back for easy storage.
