If you've been paying attention to cooking and kitchen trends in the past year you have surely read about the wonders of air fryers. Essentially mini convection ovens, air fryers can crisp foods without the mess and without adding a bunch of fat. As the name suggests, they are great for French fries, fried shrimp, and fried chicken, but that's not all they can do. Veggies, meats, and even desserts can be cooked to perfection in an air fryer. Most big-name units tend to be expensive, but some models are actually very affordable. This Farberware 3.2-quart Digital Air Fryer, for example, is currently on sale for only $39 from Walmart.

This particular Farberware model has a 3.2-quart capacity, which works for up to two pounds of food. It's a perfect size for one or two people. It's big enough for a batch of french fries, appetizers or a couple of cobs of corn.

The digital touch screen with eight preprogrammed options makes it easy to select the right cooking time. And if you ever run out of ideas of what to cook, it comes with a book with 25 recipes in it.

One shopper called it a must-buy: “This is definitely the most used item I ever bought. I use my air fryer at least twice a day, every day. This is a great size for 1 or 2 people, otherwise get a bigger one. I cook for 3 people and I have to sometimes cook in batches.”

Another said it has great performance: “It works so well! I cooked French fries, steak ribs, lamb kabob, and so much more. It cooks much faster than an oven and doesn't generate any smoke that disturbs the air in my home.”

“I love this product!” raved another. “Can cook frozen fries in 12 minutes and they are crunchy. Also made barbecue chicken legs in 24 minutes. This fryer will hold 4 chicken legs at once.”

One person said it’s great for the whole family: “I absolutely love this air fryer. It is very easy to use, even my teenage son loves using it for a quick meal or snack. My elderly mother uses it just about daily and has no issues at all. Heats up quickly and crisps up foods without heating up the kitchen. The best purchase I've made”

“This air fryer is easy to operate and is a consistent performer.” said another shopper. “It's also easy to clean, which is huge. I've owned other air fryers and they aren't as easy to operate and maintain. I've gifted this air fryer to three friends — and all of them use it pretty much daily!”
