PowerXL - Classic Air Fryer (7QT)

I use my air fryer daily to make breakfast and lunch for my kids. It’s great if you’re only making one or two servings of something. So for example, I can cook one chicken breast and some vegetables in half the time of heating up the oven. Also leftover fries from a restaurant are brand new when reheated in an air fryer. Their is a bit of a learning curve because is cooks differently from and oven or a pan but I found you can find instructions for anything if you google it. Also Reddit has an air fryer sub.

Definitely. I use mine every single day. I’ve have a Power XL basket style.

Since 2020, I've been using my trusty old PowerXL airfryer. It still works pretty well if you hit it a little but I think the interior is made from plastic and the tray inside is rusting. I've tried buying a "non-toxic" airfryer from Emeril which was stainless steel. When I cooked something, the food tasted chemically and there was also an awful smell coming from it. I went back to old-reliable XL... I saw Ninja Crispi Glass Airfryer selling at Costco. Is this one any good? Also, any other recommendations for "non-toxic" airfryers?

This is literally like the one I have but the handle broke off.

I've had the same PowerXL for 7 years and I put the whole basket in the dishwasher after I use it. 🙃

We just bought the one basket greenpan air fryer.  So far, so good.  Just knowing that it is less toxic, makes me feel better. Worth the extra $30 I paid. We returned a Power XL one, which constantly had an odor every time I used it.  No air fryer is completely clear of chemicals, but it's a start. We also are trying there pan and stainless steel pots. 

I've used the power XL and it worked great. Moved away from roommates (it was his) and got a Gourmia 8qt one gifted for Christmas last year. I LOVE it. No weird smell at first use. Almost never use the oven anymore. Dislike cleaning it but that might be because my sink is small. Has a shelf/tray thing that elevates the food so air circulates around. I think my mom got it for like USD $88 or so last year during black Friday.

I’ve owned a Ninja, Gourmia and a PowerXL. They’re all built like crap and last a little over warranty when used regularly. Hopefully there’s a decent one out there.

I’ve had a PowerAirFryer Oven for 7 years. Bought all my friends and family them when they were out. It’s great and a front door like these instead of the bucket. Was $100 and use it daily even now. I think now its PowerXL air fryer

To each their own I guess, I have a Bella 8qt that I love. Then as a 2nd one I bought a Power xl that connected to wifi, , had a 2 layer system, boy was it junk, supposedly more powerful than the Bella, it took longer to cook the exact same thing as it did the Bella. to be honest I just threw it away and bought a 2nd Bella when I wanted to do some meat in one and a side dish in the other.

I used to use a large convection toaster oven for everything, a couple of years ago I was given a Power XL air fryer. I really like it. There's no basket, it's shelves. So it's more like a small convection oven but it's big enough to get a small pan in.
