How it tested

We ran the same battery of tests we use on every air fryer, from frozen chips to fresh wings and roast veg. Here is how it scored on each.

Crispiness — 7.9

Air fry crisped chips and wings across the racks nicely, and the rotisserie chicken was evenly cooked.

Crispy food fresh from the air fryer

Evenness — 8.1

Even with a rack swap on full loads.

Ease of use & cleanup — 7.9

More parts to wash, but dishwasher safe. The touchscreen and presets are simple.

Noise — 7.6

A little louder than a basket fryer.

Design & build

A black convection oven with a glass door and rotisserie kit. It needs space but does a lot.

Who it’s for

✓ Buy it if…
  • You want an oven and air fryer in one
  • You like rotisserie chicken

Our verdict

A capable family oven combo that covers far more than a basket, from rotisserie to convection bake. Good value for the versatility.

It takes counter space and does not quite match a sealed basket for crunch. As a do-most-things oven it is a solid buy.

How it compares

It is smaller than the 14-quart Chefman and lacks the probe of the ExacTemp. A basket fryer is simpler if you do not need oven space.

AirFryer Ovens test kitchen · Bought at retail, never supplied by the brand

Every oven runs the same five stages: preheat timing, a frozen chip crispiness run, a full tray evenness test, a full load cook, then noise, energy and cleanup. Scores carry the same weighting on every model, so commission never moves a ranking.
