The makers of our beloved Instant Pot just released the Vortex Plus Air Fryer! After unboxing Nicole puts it to the test, making a batch of crispy chicken wings in both the Instant Vortex and her old Airfryer. The first thing she found is that the Instant can cook more than twice than the other brand. So how did her first experience hold up? Check it out. Oh, and she actually follows the instructions this time ;)

You should absolutely wash your kid's clothes before they wear them. A lot of them have formaldehyde on them to prevent mildew and to preserve that "newness" during transport. You should also clean cooking products, especially metals, before you use them because there is often machine oil residue present from the manufacturing process.

I think when the machine says turn food they really mean just exchange the trays, moving the bottom to the top, perhaps the middle (if used) on the bottom and bottom top to the bottom, I have a machine from Aldi's and its exactly the same, inside and out other than it never tells me to reheat it or turn my food and I cook steaks in it from Frozen but then mine is only an air fryer that I know of. But like you said its a convection oven as it circulates the heat. I liked the video. Subbed and Smashed the Bell for all!

@LosingDrea 4 жыл бұрын

One other point...I had the XL Power one you have there with this review and it sucked! not just because it was small because it the 1st I had owned and it was a gift. It was crazy to clean, and not to long after just a few uses the paint came out of the bottom of the drawer under the copper basket. The drawer was always hard to close just right and it doesn't turn on for you if its not closed properly. The favorite thing I love about the unit I have now (WHICH AS I SAID IS NOT THE INSTA your showing) is that its easy to clean. The silver basket is the rotisserie but IMHO its way too small for anything but a quail. Chickens I've ever seen were to large to fit in there though I've never tried. UPDATE: Ha ha just watched someone else's review of this same AF and the basket is for Fries and stuff you don't want to have to keep turning. Th erotiserie is the SS Bar and those sharp things you about got stabbed with in the beginning of the box opening.

The top rack spot is too efficient as it is closer to the heating element. Just use the middle and bottom spots and rotate as suggested. The rotisserie basket is what sold me... I've used it for french fries, roasted peppers and onions and even chicken legs. This thing rocks... Preheat takes 5 minutes... You can even add food and preheat at the same time and just watch the last five minutes.

are you still happy w it? i want an airfryer purely so i can roast veggies in it but i can't find any examples for it, but in theory the basket should be great for it.. I only see fries done in the basket. I'd prefer not to flip food halfway through in a regular drawer type airfryer.
