The TurboBlaze has the same capacity as the Instant Vortex above with a smaller overall size, a nice plus for compact kitchens. It also includes additional cooking functions, with a special mode for cooking frozen foods as well as keep warm and a proof setting to help raise your sourdough bread or pizza crust. We love how easy it is to clean, too: The basket and crisper plate are both dishwasher-safe, no self-cleaning or scrubbing required.
This Ninja is not only our favorite small air fryer but also performed better in testing than much larger, much more expensive competitors. The 4-quart workhorse delivered near-perfect cooking results on garlic, wings, shrimp, biscuits, and of course, fries. It’s perfectly nonstick for cleanup, quiet while running, and, thanks to the compact footprint, it’s easy to store. Though the settings are simpler than some advanced models, it does the trick for every classic air fryer function. It’s a smart pick for solo cooks and apartment dwellers, whether they’re beginners or advanced.
