Dash Compact Air Fryer Review 2023 | U.S. News

Ease of use: I’m a firm believer that the best air fryers are intuitive to use — it gets old quickly if I have to consult the manual every time I’m cooking. Though it seems like a small feature, the handle made it easy to get all of the french fries fully cooked.

With only two parts, this model is easy to clean and saves you time even when you're finished cooking. This model also offers preset options for specific food groups (like certain types of meats and vegetables), which makes cooking faster and easier than over. For example, it can roast and dehydrate food, neither of which you can accomplish with the Dash Compact Air Fryer. With so many air fryer iterations on the market, it’s easy to find a device that does as much—or as little—as you need. If you're sensitive to sound or live in an echoey space where a whooshing fan sounds like a tornado, the noise level of your air fryer may be particularly important.
