perfect size for empty nesters. It's small, takes up little counter top or storage space. Works extremely well and has the added benefit of a viewing window. easy to clean and the fry basket can go in the dishwasher. This is the air fryer I was waiting for!
The right size for me. Works great so far . Fits my kitchen, size and color. Air fryer is easy to clean. I think it is a great name product. It was packaged in a double box and no damage to the box or product. I am very pleased to get started with cooking and learning how to cook in this extremely easy to use product.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have the small 2.6 qt basket air fryer. I love it! It looks great on the counter top, petite, not obtrusive. Just the right size for two servings. Easy clean up, Operation is a breeze! Cooking with it is convenient, quick also delicious. This appliance is a wonderful addition to my kitchen
I always look for Cuisinart products when purchasing my kitchen appliances! I have a Cuisinart toaster/oven that must be over 15 years old and I can’t bear to replace it! My new Air Fryer has quickly become a new favorite. Easy to use and clean! Cuisinart has yet to disappoint me.
The air fryer seems to prepare food well enough. However, the Crisper Plate doesn't stay in place while cooking. While air frying, it rises up on one side or the other and ends up lopsided (raised from the bottom on the air fryer.) The rubber corners don't hold the plate in place while cooking.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for sharing your feedback — we’re glad to hear the air fryer is cooking well, though we’re sorry to learn about the crisper plate concern. The crisper plate should sit securely on all four rubber feet, and we recommend confirming the feet are fully attached and that the plate is firmly pressed into position before use, as well as avoiding overfilling which can shift airflow and movement. If the rubber corners appear loose or the plate continues to rise during cooking, our team would be happy to review replacement options under ticket #8900523066. Please contact our Consumer Assistance Center at 1-800-726-0190 so we can further assist and ensure your Cuisinart performs as intended.
In only a few weeks the air fryer has proved useful. Potatoes are no longer just mashed or baked. Meat recipes endless and easy to make without recipes with basic method: rub with spices and a bit of oil, and air fry for 10-20 minutes. So easy to clean and safe to work with.
