I love the blue color! It’s large enough to make food for my family at once. Has a lot of great features! Love this air fryer so far!

I bought one for myself this summer and gave this updated model to my parents for Christmas. They are thrilled! My mom is relearning to walk after an illness and my stepfather has been most of the cooking and taking care of her. My reason, personally, that I say it changed my life is that I rarely use the oven anymore. My husband and I use this to air fry chicken breasts. Without looking at the directions too closely, I evoo'd, s&p'd, herbed the chicken breasts, hit start and in 15 minutes (no preheat), flat, we had the most amazing, juiciest, flavorful chicken breast we have ever had. I am a great cook, but in order for my chicken to be that juicy and tasty, I would use a vat of chicken broth or the like and have to baste them in the oven. Between the time, the cookware cleanup, and the good - but not THIS good! - chicken, this air fryer has changed my life! Besides that, I don't need to make or buy chicken stock or bone broth to baste my chicken anymore or let my chicken cook in its own fat. We have also used it to heat up pizza, Jamaican patties, tortillas, pita, frozen Brussel sprouts, reheat any veggie actually, potato fries, a chimichanga once - just a lot of things I would usually end up throwing away. The cleanup is way too easy without the parchment insert if you decide to not purchase them. I didn't know that was a thing, so it took a few months to start using a parchment liner, but it still cleaned super easily. Better with parchment, and you can also use regular non-formed parchment paper, to save money. My stepdad is really thrilled with it. It saves him from back ache from opening or shutting the oven door, he will be able to clean it easily, cook healthier to help with his blood pressure and cut down on a lot of work that would otherwise take time away he would rather spend with Mom. I highly recommend this NuWave air fryer. It is SO EASY!! It's brilliant. Worth every penny.

We love it! Easy to set up, easy to use! Cooks well! Looks great and beautiful color! Reasonable noise level! This is our first one so we have no noise level comparisons but it's quieter than our microwave lol!

I do like this air fryer for its ease of clean up, speed, color choices and no PFAS. I specifically purchased this one, because it has a PFAS-free non-stick ceramic coating. I shouldn't be surprised, but I can't believe that all of the other brands are still using toxic coatings. I got both silicone liners and parchment, but i ended up liking and using the silicone liners a lot. Makes it even easier to clean and will hopefully extend the life of the inner coating. While I am happy with the purchase, I have encountered some issues. I got this mostly for French fries, but there's only two of us. Often I'm doing only one or two servings, so the size of this is overkill. I wish they had a smaller version of this one. It doesn't always cook fries evenly, even with shaking things up in-between. So I have to do it more than once. But it's faster and doesn't make my house hot, so I'm okay now that I've figured it out. With these annoyances out of the way now, I'm happy. Just be aware that there's a bit of a learning curve if you are new to using an air fryer vs an oven. Don't start with a really expensive or important meal until you've got it figured out.

This is a great air fryer. It is much quieter than the big name model that it replaced. I really like the 8 QT basket, as it allows for taller items to be placed in the cooking tray. It fits nicely in the corner of our counter and blends well with our other appliances. Dollar for dollar this is the best air fryer we have purchased over the years.

I don’t understand how so many items have unreasonable reviews. I just received this air fryer today. I took it out of the box and plugged it in. Removed the cardboard paper inside tray. I seasoned a whole chicken , threw inside; I selected roast and an hour later it was delicious. I had the other popular brand Cosori for 4 years. It took cooked quickly ; it was louder but it cooked everything easily. The problem that air fryer has is it’s not PFAS free. I noticed the material inside wore off with delicate care. I can’t imagine why someone would purchase anything’s anti-stick without the words PFOA and PFAS free. They are both toxic. The material inside Nuwave looks and feels cleaner. It’s only my first day and it’s easy to use ; it is not as loud; easy to clean and most important it’s PFAS free.

Love this air fryer. My first air fryer was coated with a Teflon-type coating. It smelled bad and having been in the business, I knew it was noot good for my health or the environment. This product is ceramic and it works perfectly without the environmental and health concerns. The only negative is that it does not have a window so you need to open the basket to see the progress of you meal. A small inconvenience to an otherwise very well made and great product.

Update: I thought this would be a great product based on review. However it is junk, UNSAFE, UNHEALTHY. The main tray material has peeled off after only two months. DO NOT BUY. When i contated NuWave they told me "peeling is not covered by the warranty". The way they stated it made me feel this is a known problem. The bad- i have not found the pieces, meaning it ended up in the food we ate. We clean it after we eat. Wonderful....AVOID this product. Over-rated. I just bought another Ninja, my first fryer and it has never peeled and still works. So, two smaller Ninjas are better than one large Brio NuWave. --- i am not new to airfrying, nor am i an expert. I have a ninja 4qt that we love. I bought this airfryer to move up in size. here are the issues: 1. first, Amazon shipped in its store packaging with no tape at all- box was beat to crap and the top looks like it was opened at every step of the shipping process 2. the bottom metal grate that is removable is really weak, and bad quality. i dont see this lasting very long. you should get 2-3 of these, or just one that is higher quality (hint) 3. Cleaning: horrible, i decided to soak the the metal grate in the pull out fry section as i do with the ninja. put about 3/4 inch of water in it and walked away. i came back 3 hours later and it has leaked all over the counter and the cabinets. They have two screws in the back to steady the pull out section that are not sealed well and so it is going to leak- crap design 4. ergonomics: AWLFUL: the power switch is positioned on the panel where the start button should be. i have turned this thing off a dozen times now thinking i am hitting start- there are some serious layout issues with the control panel. i hate this thing 5. the pull out try is nice, BUT, it is not functional. the first time i used it it dropped on my feet and put the food all over the floor- maybe i have a defective unit?? I have been vigilant to make sure it is connected and hold a pot holder under it when i pull it out- CAUTION!!! 6. related to the pull out tray. there is nothing to keep the back of the outer bucket aligned to the inner bucket. i cant slide it in one handed. The handle naturally keeps the inner basket level, but the outer bucket SAGS and you cant slide it in without using both hands and a pot holder. I would never buy again. i have no idea how they got high ratings. It COULD BE good, but several of these issues need to be re-engineered. BUY ANYTHING BUT THIS UNIT
