We don't "wing" it here at Yahoo: We put 15 models to the test and awarded this one "best air fryer overall." According to Granero, who conducted the tests, this Cuisinart "boasts substantial cooking room, minimal required maintenance and an easy-to-master learning curve, all while looking non-clunky."
Its LED display has five cooking functions: air fry, roast, bake, broil and warm, as well as five preset options for popular foods like fries, wings, frozen snacks and vegetables. Other cool components include its interior light and see-through doors, which allow you to keep an eye on your food while it cooks, and a "toss reminder" that'll alert you when it's time to flip your food in the basket.

Seeing a home essential from a respected brand like Shark on sale for 50% off always makes our ears perk up — but this markdown is particularly special because it brings the price down to the best it's been since Prime Day. Yes, it's still an investment at $300, but just think of how much time and effort it'll save you. And the fact that it empties itself once it's done cleaning? Downright priceless.
Need another selling point? This Shark vacuum's collection bin can hold up to 60 days' worth of dust and debris. That means you could go as long as two months without having to clean it out, saving you even more time.
As far as performance is concerned, this small yet mighty robovac is powerful enough to zap up everything from the kids' crumbs to Fido's fur, and its 360° LiDAR vision allows it to sense and move around any larger objects and furniture it comes across. The Matrix Clean feature encourages it to work in a grid pattern for more thorough coverage, and you can schedule cleanings or ask it to focus on a specific area via the SharkClean app or even your voice (it is, of course, compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant).
This shark has a sea of admirers out there — over 21,000 of 'em on Amazon alone.
"Every night, our little cleaning buddy hoovers up all the crumbs and dog hair," raved a reviewer. "We walk down to beautiful vacuum stripes on our carpet. What amazed me most is that it even vacuums on our high-pile rug!"
"I wouldn't trade it for three maids," said another. "Just set the schedule and forget it, or press the button for vacuuming anytime friends may be coming over. I have two long-haired cats, but I don’t have to worry about fur on the floor."
"Its navigation system maneuvers around obstacles, making sure every inch of my home is spotless," gushed a third. "The convenience of voice control and the app scheduling feature has made managing cleaning tasks a breeze. ... Plus, the self-emptying dustbin and washable filters make maintenance hassle-free. When down with back pain, I am still able to have clean floors."
"Its mapping technology is great," wrote a generally pleased user. "It scanned our 3,000-square-foot house perfectly on the first try. ... Only con I've noticed so far is you can't add a new room without completely remapping [your] house. It only takes 30 minutes total, but still."
"My only complaint is that if it is trying to clean in the kitchen while I'm cooking or in the living room when I'm trying to do [Zumba], it is impossible to take it somewhere else and let it clean there without shutting it out of the room you want to be in," explained a final fan. "If you don't close the door, it will just return to the place where it left off and clean. This is great when it needs to empty itself in the middle of a run, but not so great when you want it to leave you alone. But pausing it or closing it in another room works. No product is perfect, but this one is pretty close!"
True, this robovac doesn't have a mopping feature, but this Yahoo editor-approved find will take care of that:
If you have Amazon Prime, you’ll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)
