Couldnât be happier
Iâm extremely happy so far with this air fryer. I havenât used all of the functions yet but my primary use will be for air frying and so far itâs been excellent. We had a Phillips air fryer prior to buying this one. It sounded like a jet engine when in use and took a significant amount of time to pre-heat. This one is extremely quiet and pre heats to 400 degrees in just 2-3 minutes.I also really like that it has a window with a light so you can keep an eye on your food while itâs cooking. Cleanup is a breeze and the air fry seems to be well built.

Perfect
This is a fantastic airfryer, it’s powerful, quite and has soft tones with a beautiful display. I’m impressed with how it quickly cooks chicken leaving them juicy and fully cooked. This one is a perfect size, lots of fries cook without burning them, full size peaces of chicken are no problem. I’m very happy with how it cooks and it’s high quality appearance. The window is a major bonus to watch the food cook, easy nonstick cleaning is easy.

I don’t regret this purchase
I researched and researched before purchasing this to replace my old air fryer that was worn out. I do NOT regret my decision. It has a lower profile on my countertop and fits with lots of room to spare under upper cabinets. I mainly use it for cooking frozen french fries, frozen chicken finger, reheating pizza, etc. I love the large rectangular basket. Easy to clean. This purchase was perfect decision for this 67 year old!

Absolutely a terrific addition to any kitchen for any cook!
I fully recognize I am about 20 years behind the air fryer eight ball! It seems as if everyone has an air fryer, and recipes are all over YouTube. Finally after persistent encouragement, I bit the bullet and ordered one. Of course as always, I read multiple reviews, watched YouTube videos, and sifted through all sorts of rankings on the Internet. Just trying it on for size, I did not want to spend a huge amount of money. This Instant Vortex 6 quart was on sale at a terrific price so with great reviews, it became the chosen one. It arrived on time, but admittedly the wait seemed long because once the decision was made, we wanted it now! The packaging was superb with no part of the appliance being damaged. After reading the accompanying information, she was finally plugged in, heated up, and ready for duty. Off we go!First experiment (you guessed it) was French fries…absolutely delicious…coming out crispy on the outside and nice and “potatoey” creamy on the inside. Looking back, I think we went through a 10 lb bag of potatoes that afternoon! Next came hamburgers, but the consensus was, “They were OK, but you can’t really beat the grill.” Number 3 on the menu was chicken tenders seasoned, floured, dredged in egg, floured again and into the air fryer…YUMMY! Again crispy on the outside but really moist and juicy on the inside. Without consulting the experts, shrimp were sprayed with avocado oil and even though delicious, we cooked them a bit too long (our fault not the fryer’s). Itching to try something a little different, beef jerky made from flank stead won at number 4; all reported it was “fantastic.” Each of these foods was placed directly on the tray and put into the air fryer. No parchment, pans, foil, or silicone baskets were used at all. The next question that arose was, “So what about eggs?” Let’s just say the jury is still out as far as perfecting the time and temperature. But the taste, well it tastes just like a fried egg. We did learn that aluminum foil is better than the silicone basket for eggs.This air fryer is stainless steel, solidly and masterfully constructed, has 6 functions, and is one awesomely fabulous appliance! Once positioned it is stable sitting squarely on the counter top with a basket that pulls out to the front sporting a short but adequate cord. It is extremely user friendly and simple to operate. Preheating happens quickly with final heat ranging from 95 degrees to a maximum of 400 degree set with just a rotation of the dial; there is also built in shut off capability for safety and peace of mind. Clean up is very basic and simple; it is accomplished with a squirt of dish soap, hot water, swishing , rubbing with a cloth, rinsing and drying. No scrubbing or scraping needed. Because of the size and capabilities this air fryer would be a great asset in a small apartment kitchen, a first apartment, an RV, a tiny home, and even a âglampingâ campsite. In our home it is rapidly becoming an indispensable kitchen appliance. I unequivocally recommend this air fryer.Top 3 Likes:-Easy, quick, simple, safe, and stress free-Stainless steel with 6 functions-Quality construction, stable, and heavy in a good wayTop 3 Dislikes:-No dislikes!

COMPANY RESOLVED THE ISSUE. (It Broke Under Warranty)
This is my final and fulfilled review. The air fryer itself has not been under review. The Instant company has been under reviewed. The machine itself made me very happy. Electronics is always something that can break. Just one of those things. The fryer is fabulous and I see it happily used in YouTube videos and well regarded. The company has fulfilled it’s obligation to replace my under warranty air fryer, given me an apology for sending the wrong machine when one showed up, and suggested I gift it or donate it since it’s not useable for me. My new machine appeared today. I am increasing the rating to 4 stars. Can’t give it five stars because of the long drawn out customer support. I am so happy to be able to revise and update this review and I thank Instant for fully resolving this.I am writing to update my review. I still have not received my replacement air fryer. Same excuses and no product. Worst customer service EVER. Instant is proving to be as poor as their reputation of the past suggested. I’ll keep updating, but at this point, it appears they have no intention of honoring the warranty and replacing my air fryer.Wish I could only comment about how great the machine was while it was working; because it was great. It was our first one of these and I researched it and took the America’s Test Kitchen Recommendation and bought this model. I dithered a bit opening the box because it’s large and I needed to do the mental gymnastics to figure out where to put it and then how to use it. About two weeks into actual use, the fan stopped working. I contacted the company (return window was closed) and provided them with the necessary proof of ownership, conditions of use and a video showing a broken machine. They were happy to inform me I’d be receiving a new machine, discard the old one (saving reusable parts) and await their tracking information. Great! Except I got silence from them. Waited over a week and was told they had a problem with their warehouse and it was being fixed. I’d get my tracking number in 2 to 3 weeks. Follow up contacts got me nowhere. Asking for my money back, I was informed I hadn’t purchased it from them so they couldn’t refund any money. I purchased it from them via their Amazon Store here but that is apparently different than purchasing it from Instant. Their website gives me the same contact information as the warranty information so I have no other recourse but to share my story. People have been very nice and very unhelpful in not providing me with a new machine. I had thought it would be a great gift for a couple of family members. I’m definitely rethinking this. The whole warehouse story is sounding silly. If they’re waiting on manufacturing in China because of a bad batch, they should say so. Better than this excuse after 4 weeks… “Our warehouse is undergoing changes that have resulted in unexpected delays with shipments.” In fairness, if they fix this for me, I will return here and update the review.

Nunca habÃa tenido una air fryer, pero pienso que es un buen producto. La mayorÃa de los productos que he preparado traen instrucciones y quedan bien

I made french fries from scratch. It was so easy. I cut up 1.5 lbs of potatoes, tossed them in 2 tbsp of olive oil, a few shakes of salt… 15ish minutes at 380 with a couple of tosses along the way and… Best fries I’ve ever made! And no oil to dispose of afterward, no smell of cooking oil throughout the house, and the basket and the insert cleaned up in seconds. Highly recommended!
