What are the best air fryers? Our air fryer buyers guide is filled with tips and information to help you make the best purchase.
WHAT IS THE BEST AIR FRYER?
We cook with many different air fryers, all different brands. Our three test kitchens use them around the clock for testing and refining our recipes. We definitely have our favorites and talk about each one. From there you can decide what model and size works best for you or your family.
- Size matters, especially if you’re needing to feed a family of four to six hungry people.
- We’re mostly cooking for two during the busy weeknights and the 3 qt size fryers is great for us.
- If you’re wondering what size of air fryer to get our recommendation is the 3-4 qt sizes for 2-3 people (or if you don’t mind cooking multiple batches) and the 5-6 qt for families of 4-6 (you’ll still cook somethings in batches, but not as much as the smaller air fryers).

Review of Best Air Fryers
There’s so many on the market now. You just need to research and find the ones that fits your needs, capacity and style. We group the basket style into 2 main size groups: 3-4 qt range & the 5-6 qt. range. There’s also extra large air fryers that are great for cooking whole turkeys & other big cooking needs. Here’s our favorites:
Ultrean 4.2 qt – Simple functional panel. Solid basket design that is less likely to come unscrewed or break like other designs frequently do after a few months of repeated use. Great price for the size. They have several color options for the design-minded user.
Good Larger Air Fryers
Good Alternate Style Fryers –
These Air Fryers are great for specific moments, especially for turkeys, ribs, & other big cooking needs. They might not be the first to grab for daily use, but can be game changers for your big gatherings. They’ll take care of the big stuff or bring the cooking outside while freeing up your oven or kitchen for cooking everything else.

I have the Gourmia 6 qt that you mention in this post. I did get it at Costco. I LOVE this air fryer for the reasons that you stated, especially the basket size. I really like that the basket is square, and that gives a little more room than the round baskets. I have used many of the presets, as that takes the guesswork out of “what temp and time” is needed. It’s just my husband and I, but I have used it to cook for four of us.
You guys are the only trusted reviewers when it comes to air fryers! Really insightful.
Trying to pick one out for the Holidays ahead of Thanksgiving. This helped so much.
