What matters in air fryers
A two-zone air fryer cooks a main and a side at different settings and can time them to finish together. The numbers that separate one from another are few: total capacity, how many zones run at once, wattage, the top temperature, whether the basket goes in the dishwasher, whether you can see the food without opening it, and how long the warranty runs.
