Dash 2.6qt Tasti Crisp Air Fryer - Digital

If you are cooking for one or living as a couple, this air fryer is a fantastic addition to the kitchen. It doesn't take up much counter space and is exactly the right size for smaller portions. Size: It’s small and compact, making it perfect for a single person or a couple. You won't have to deal with a massive basket for a simple meal. Controls: The interface is great. The buttons are very responsive and easy to use, so there is no struggling with "sticky" touchscreens or stiff dials. Temperature: Just a heads-up that the temperature readings come in Fahrenheit. It’s easy to adjust once you get used to it, and it heats up quickly and accurately. Value: Honestly, it’s a great deal. For the price, you get a reliable machine that gets the job done without the bulk of the more expensive models. Verdict: Highly recommended for anyone in a small household looking for an efficient, budget-friendly air fryer!

I've owned this for nearly two months. If a measure of how well you like something is how often you use it, I've used mine at least 20 times so far, which is quite a bit. I mostly cook roasted vegetables in it, with a variety of seasoning, but have also made a grilled cheese sandwich, french fries, and other things. It works quite well, every single time. Cooking things perfectly with very little oversight or effort. As others have noted it's very simple to use. Put food in it, cook, eat, clean. Maybe not quite that simple, but almost. I've tried marinading things, adding oil, various seasoning, skipping oil, and it handles all of it well. If I were to advise anyone buying an air fryer, know that with many recipes, you're going to have to flip/toss/move the food around every 5-10 minutes (many recipes are 20 minutes and under). A very small inconvenience. Even if you didn't do this, the food would still likely turn out okay. As others have noted, this is ridiculously easy to clean. 2 minutes in the sink with a sponge and you're good. I suppose you could put it in a dishwasher, but it's ridiculously easy to clean by hand. The recipe book that comes with it is very minimal. There are many more out there, or many recipes online. Or, just experiment!

Only had for a week, used four times. So far, am loving it. Came from using the Ninja Foodi Grill air fryer, the darn thing was so heavy and large, I wanted a smaller and more convenient option after my husband died, because I did not want to use it, he was the machine operator! This air fryer was described in an article by a well known print and digital consumer reporting magazine, as a recommended option. I felt like it was worth trying. Opted for the regular non-stick model because I planned to use parchment in the basket to make cleanup easier and preserve the non-stick coating, as well as the cost difference between it and the ceramic model. I've since learned I may want to try the perforated parchment, what I bought is not perforated, so am curious about air flow differences. Also discovered a hack stating that placing the non-perforated liner baskets in the very bottom of the fryer, under the perforated crisper tray works. I have not tried that yet. Pros for me are the unit's small size and weight, handle on top, QUIET operation (actually thought it wasn't working until I began to smell the food!). Being used to the noise of the Foodi, this quietness was a pleasant shock. Also pre-heating is not a requirement, (but recommended) depending on food choices. Since it is not required, there is no ready made pre-heat setting, but I think you could easily program one of the three available preset options for that purpose. I've only done frozen potstickers and frozen chicken wing parts so far, both with and without oil. I chose olive oil delivered via a fine spray mister. Still have more to experiment with, but with & without oil, with & without parchment basket liners, I saw no difference in crispness. The frozen chicken wing parts will not be something I purchase again though, as they are so full of water, that cooking them from a frozen state results in a swimming pool of liquid and does not yield anything crisp. Recommend thawing those and making sure to use pressure and paper towels to squish wetness out before cooking. Anxious to try "fresh" (non-frozen) wings instead. All in all, this feels like a quality unit, that if used properly should do the trick for my purposes. I do feel like the instructions could be a bit more detailed, I prefer an easy to reference chart, which is shown, but is split onto two pages in the manual. A special note, if you register your air fryer, Dash adds an additional year to the warranty. We shall see how that works out!

Nice compact size. Good size when cooking for one or two. Food cooks quickly and is crisp Fairly easy to use even if you are legally blind. The compartment resists being replaced. We have to shove it in and yank it out to get to the food.

As others have said the basket is easy to clean. I feel it requires less cook time and/or lower temp setting than called for by any instructions on anything I made so far. Maybe aa it ages this will change, but it runs a little hot imo. This is not a problem, just plan and adjust accordingly. It works great and yes, I shake the basket or turn the items half way. It does make a difference. Fits a decent amount for one person use, although not a whole family since it's small capacity. Nice color too

This air fryer is great! It is fairly easy to clean and was easy to use. I was worried when the base didn’t fully come apart like my last one, but the insert coming out helps a lot! It has been perfect for cooking and everything comes out PERFECT! You can’t beat the price tag. Lastly, it’s a bit wider than I anticipated, but it still saves a lot of counter space compared to the giant ones with all the bells and whistles. I was not using my big fancy one so I gave it to friends who will. They gave me their little one and it died recently, so this was an easy upgrade! It’s perfect if your space is tight or you only need the air fryer feature. I could also see this used easily by a responsible child and much safer than an oven and having to remember to shut it off. Having worked with special needs population, this could be a very easy one to teach them and understand. I honestly leave it on 400F and cook everything at that temp. Except fish. Only thing you need to know is the time!

I love the size and the color if it's perfectly in its spot because, it's small and compact. It works perfectly and is easy to set up to one button pushing and we are happy with our purchase, so far.

I'm a bit torn on this one. I chose this one because it was at the top of the list in Consumer Reports reviews. My first unit had a really STRONG burnt electronics odor out of the box. At first I thought someone fried the electrics (no pun intended) and returned it. But it seemed new and unused for the most part, so I gave it a shot. But the smell was so strong it lingered all over the house. But I learned this was maybe the "off gassing" of the plastics?? You could taste it in the food that was cooked and it was really really bad. But I did not see others talking about this in the reviews so I thought it was a one off. I returned it and got a replacement and the second unit had the same smell but not nearly as bad. The second unit eventually got better. As for the unit itself, it works pretty well. Very quiet for an airfryer and crisps food well as long as you rotate the food often during the cook. It's a decent size and compact.

This is so perfect for a family of 2. Does all veggies so great. Baby potatoes done great, roasted. Fish and chicken really good. I have recommended this to small families, very compact and east to use and clean.

This little unit is perfect for a single person or even a couple. It runs well and does everything just as described. I love it for when you order fries to be delivered and they are cold when they get to you. I have the air fryer already setup and ready to go when the fries get here. Simply put them in the fryer for 8-10 minutes at 400 degrees and voila!!! Perfectly reheated, crispy french fries! Compact and easy to store as well.
