Very Helpful Built In Light, but Can Be Easier To CleanWhy did you pick this product vs others?:
I’ve been using this Instant Vortex Plus for a few months now, and the see-through window with the interior light is honestly the feature I didn’t know I needed. Being able to watch my food crisp up without having to yank the basket out is super satisfying—and it actually helps prevent overcooking since you can just glance at it instead of guessing. It’s a small design choice, but it really sets this apart from other air fryers I’ve owned.
That said, I do wish they made the metal grate easier to remove. It gets gunked up pretty quickly and it’s impossible to remove it when it’s hot because the handle is too small to grab with kitchen mitts on. For something that needs regular cleaning, it really should just slide or clip out more easily.
Still, the performance is solid. Heats up fast, cooks evenly, and the presets are helpful without being overcomplicated. Just fix the tray removal and it’d be perfect.
• Pros
– See-through window with internal light is a game changer
– Heats up quickly and cooks evenly
– Sleek design, doesn’t take up too much space
• Cons
– Metal grate is annoyingly difficult to remove for cleaning
– Exterior can get pretty hot during long cooks
Thanks for reading, hope this review helped 🙂

Easy to use, easy to clean; works great!The control panel was so idiot-proof that I figured it out intuitively. I didn't even bother reading instructions or watching a video before diving in and using this.
Doesn't make as much of a mess as others I've seen, so it's super quick and easy to clean up. Spilled cheese didn't stick.
The one thing I didn't get right away is that the rack just goes on the bottom of the fryer basket. It doesn't need to be suspended.
The fryer basket is super easy to handle if you need to shake your food, and doesn't require oven mitts or potholder to handle it. It's also light weight.
I was super happy that it fit uner my cabinets with plenty of room for air circulation.
It doesn't heat up my kitchen, either.
The filters do work to filter out odors.

Feature rich easy to use air fryer at a fair price.I did a lot of research before purchasing this air fryer and have zero regrets. It ticks all the features that make it a great buy. Easy to clean large basket, simple controls, a window, a light, quiet, controls cooking odor fairly well, and heats up quickly. Preheating is really unnecessary. I always use the minimum cooking time listed in the recipe. I don't normally cook meat in it since I use a grill 3 times a week, but decided to try a roast chicken. They recommended a 4lb chicken. Good luck finding a 4lb chicken. I got a 5.5 lb chicken and it fit fine. OMG! I'll never buy a store bought rotisserie chicken again. It was tender, juicy, and had beautifully crispy skin with flavor through to the bone. We use it mainly for roast potatoes, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, brussel sprouts, frozen pizza, tater tots, and hard boiled eggs. The eggs come out perfect every time. I bought it a year and a half ago for $109. There were similar sized air fryers that were cheaper, but none with all the features of this one.

Works great but beware the cooking tray falls out when hot!Beware the cooking tray easily falls out when hot, even when inserted properly (arrows matching).
Despite that issue, still a 5 star product so long as you are aware of the issue since the answer is simple: don’t tip things out of it.
Otherwise, it’s a nice compact size and it’s extremely quiet! We can barely tell when it’s running, especially while other things are cooking on the stove, etc.
I love the “light” so you can keep an eye on the food while it’s cooking. It’s also dead simple to use and doesn’t have any presets that I never use anyways.
The odor eraser is “okay”. However, I’ve never owned any other air fryer that attempted to make this claim so can’t easily benchmark it against others. Compared to our last air fryer, it makes a noticeable difference, but I wouldn’t buy it expecting to never smell what’s cooking.
Preheats quickly and seems to cook efficiently as food is always cooked based on the minimum time on the package so long as you don’t overcrowd it. I seem to get the crispiest results when whatever I’m cooking is fully in contact with the cooking tray. Therefore, I doubt the claim of cooking “2lbs of fries”, at least to a desirable texture.
I admit I could be doing it wrong but I tried a bag of fries once and while cooked through, they were really limp and soggy. However, this was all true of my last air fryer as well so didn’t take off any stars.
Definitely well worth the money and a great choice so long as you know the cooking tray will fall out if you try and tip it past 90° (especially while it’s hot) and that the odor eraser makes a noticeable difference, but it’s not magic, the smells will still linger but with less intensity.

Buy this!!!I LOVE this air fryer. I have been very late to the air fryer trend because I hate small appliances cluttering my kitchen, especially my counter tops. But this product is marvelous. It heats and cooks so quickly and can fit a surprising amount of food in its basket. I am a huge fan of Instant products. I love my Instant Pot, and this product meets and exceeds that standard. It makes heating crunchy snacks like fries or mozarella sticks a breeze. Much simpler and energy effective than your oven. But it's also great for roasting or baking potatoes for a quick dinner side. I love roasting carrots in it! Simple to clean. Just remove the basket and wash in your sink. A little Dawn Powerwash helps remove any grease. My favorite part of Instant products, besides their functionality and performance, is their streamlined and cleanly designed button panels. This device is mo different, and it's simple and easy to read panel ensures quick and easy operation. I love it and happened to get it on sale. An excellent value and product! I love Instant!
