Peruse any kitchen must-have list and odds are, you'll find an air fryer topping the round up. An air fryer is a countertop appliance that uses a combination of hot air and oil to mimic the result of a deep fryer. However, unlike deep fryers and other traditional frying methods, an air fryer only requires a small amount of oil, on average one tablespoon or less, to cook crispy and delicious meals.
Because there are hundreds of variations of air fryers available, it can be challenging to land on the one that's best for you. However, if you're looking for a tested-and-proved fan favourite, the Ultrean 6-Quart Air Fryer is worth checking out.
Described by shoppers as "one of the best" small appliances on the market, the Ultrean air fryer has earned hundreds of rave reviews and right now, it's on sale at Amazon Canada.
Ultrean 6-Quart Air Fryer
The details
The Ultrean six-quart air fryer is a multipurpose kitchen gadget that can comfortably serve between three and five people. With its 1,700-watt power output, you can quickly serve up your favourite dishes and easily prepare meals using one of the air fryer's seven cooking presets: Chips, meat, shrimp, cake, chicken, steak and fish.
The budget-friendly air fryer uses up to 80 per cent less fat and oil than traditional cooking methods and comes with a detachable, dishwasher-safe basket and interior pan.
A 'must-have' small appliance
This family-sized air fryer has earned nearly 700 reviews on Amazon Canada and an impressive average rating of 4.5 stars.
Shoppers give the appliance top marks for flavour retention and ease of use. According to one user, the air fryer is "one of the best" small appliances they have "ever used."
"You can cook almost everything in it," they write. The "quality" of the food is "as crispy and delicious as deep-fried," and it takes "half the time" as a normal oven. It's "as close to perfect" as a small appliance gets, they add.
The air fryer is "wonderful," raves another shopper. "You will not believe how crispy and yummy" your food will be, they write. It "comes out restaurant-grade good."
Despite glowing reviews like "best buy ever" and "this is a must-have gadget," some users mention the basket coating started to wear off over time.
After several months, "some of the coating" on the basket and drawer "started coming off," according to one shopper. However, "we contacted [customer service]," and the brand is sending a new one "right away."
Verdict
If you're in the market for an air fryer, this "wonderful" Ultrean six-quart unit may be worth checking out — especially at its current sale price. Shoppers rave the appliance produces "restaurant-grade" food while taking "half the time" as traditional cooking methods. However, some shoppers note its coating can wear off with time and use, something to take note of when placing your order.
