Our resident appliance expert Lauren labelled this the top dual air fryer in her tried and tested guide to the best air fryers on the market. “Chicken, chips and chopped-up veg cooked much faster and ended up a lot tastier and crispier compared to when cooking in the other air fryer models,” she writes. “It has six settings, so it can roast, air fry, bake, crisp, reheat and dehydrate all in one device, and you can set each drawer to do a different thing – very handy when cooking a whole meal.”
