This air fryer is super easy to operate.  All you have a do is remove the basket, add food items that have been lightly coated with a tiny amount of oil then cook it. It had a timer and temperature gauge that can be adjusted depending on the type of food being fried. I did notice it was difficult to remove the basket after cooking though as the plastic button is very flimsy.  I cooked several different foods and it lightly browns the food. Checking the food partway through and stirring helped prevent it from burning. The device itself is part plastic and part metal.  Note that it is a large device and I needed to find space to store it.  In terms of cleaning, I was able to hand wash the basket and dry it easily. Overall this is a good option for anyone wanting a healthier way to cook foods.
