Let me start by saying this stainless steel air fryer basket has become my kitchen MVP. The 18.7×12.8" size is perfect when I'm meal prepping for the week or hosting friends - I can fit two whole chickens or three racks of ribs at once!

The 360° circulation heating truly delivers - my sweet potato fries come out perfectly crispy every time without that annoying burnt bottom layer I used to get with baking sheets. The elevated mesh design makes all the difference for even cooking.

Cleanup is shockingly easy compared to traditional oven pans. Even after making super greasy bacon (my weekend guilty pleasure), a quick rinse with soapy water does the trick. Though fair warning - it's heavier than expected when loaded with food!

My favorite unexpected benefit? Using it as a cooling rack for cookies and draining veggies after washing. The sturdy construction handles multiple kitchen tasks beautifully.

The only minor drawback is that very large cuts of meat might still touch the oven walls during rotation, but that's more about my small oven than the basket itself.

After testing everything from roasted Brussels sprouts to chicken wings, I can confidently say this delivers restaurant-quality crispiness while cutting oil use by at least 80%. For health-conscious foodies who refuse to sacrifice flavor, this is absolutely worth every penny.
