Bad situation made good

Though I love the fryer, I reviewed it poorly because the unit failed in less than a year. Perhaps it was just a fluke, because everyone else reviews it well and no one seems to have experienced a problem. Christina, in Customer Service, reached out and is sending a replacement. I’m truly impressed by the customer service and am excited to give my fryer a second chance! Keep your fingers crossed :-)

Junk

In all honesty, I loved it... until it fell apart in my hands. Absolute junk. It didn’t even last a year and I’m lucky if I used it once a month. The handle crumbled where it was attached to the basket, full of food, which fell to the floor onto my feet. Not a happy camper...

Easy, quick and big

I was sent this sample to review. This was super easy to use and cooked up our chicken fast. It's also great for reheating things like pizza! It's so quick and easy to use.

Great airfyer

We made the zucchini fry recipe in the book that comes with the air fryer. The zucchini fries were a hit! We dipped them in ranch or ketchup...YUM. I love the small footprint so that it doesn’t clutter the kitchen counter when in use. It can hold up to 5.6 quarts of food for serving the whole family - or just a hungry preteen boy. The digital touch screen is super easy to use and intuitive. The air conduction technology evenly AND quickly cooks tasty food every time. The food is so crispy!!

Hi, thank you for the review! The air fryer is, in fact, a family size unit and you might even have leftovers as well.

Replaces my toaster oven!

We have used this air fryer every day since receiving it. We love it! So easy to use and cleanup is a breeze. We have cooked a wide variety of foods and everything comes out great. Love having the large capacity even for our family of two.

Great addition for my family of 4!

I have been using the Magic Chef XL Air Fryer for almost a month now and have cooked a variety of foods like Potato fries, Blackened Fish, Grilled Chicken, Air Fried Green Beans, Crispy Roasted Sweet Potato etc. and I'm very happy with it. The size of this Air Fryer works great for my family of 4. It fits a pound of chicken or fish in the tray, this way I can do all the air frying in one single batch. Even my teen kids are enjoying making snacks by themselves like French Fries, Chicken Tenders...

I prefer this air fryer over my other one

I received this air fryer a few weeks ago and I'm loving it! My other air fryer that I have has the rotating arm, so I felt limited in the recipes I could make with it. So far the Magic Chef has been amazing and I've cooked many things with success. The settings on it (like for shrimp etc) are very accurate and the food comes out perfect. Excited to try even more things in it!

I Love This Appliance

I've only had this for 5 days but so far I love it! It doesn't heat up the kitchen or smoke out the whole place or set off the smoke alarm like I do when I use a skillet on the stove. Easy to clean. I've made pork chops, burgers, breaded chicken tenders, and a small frozen pizza. Everything has turned out great.
