Shopping for an air fryer — the small kitchen appliance that claims to recreate the crispy, crunchy taste of fried foods without the oil and fats used in traditional deep-fat frying — can be a confusing endeavor when you consider all the options out there.

So, to make things easier for you this Black Friday, we scoured the web to find the best deals on units our editors have tested and love. But these deals are only on sale for a little bit longer, so be sure to shop now before they’re gone.

The only problem with air fryers is that you can only cook one thing at a time — until now. Before we imagine our 2031 kitchenscapes consisting of entire walls of air fryers, we can safely say that two drawers really does make a huge difference. It’s the first air fryer to have ’em, and you still get plenty of room: Each side has a 4-quart capacity.

This 6-quart air fryer can air fry, broil, roast, dehydrate, bake and reheat. It’s got one-touch controls for everything from wings to cookies to cinnamon buns, and now you can nab it for 33% off.
