Meilleures friteuses pour mid size

We think the GoWISE GW22731 is one of the best budget air fryers you can buy. At around $70, you get 5.8 qt of capacity and 8 presets, which matches or beats many models at twice the price. The 30-minute timer limit is the main drawback, but for everyday cooking like fries, wings, and vegetables, it handles the job well.

We think the HD9630 is the right pick for cooks who want Philips Rapid Air quality in a kitchen-friendly 4 qt size. The fat removal system genuinely works, pulling about a tablespoon of grease from a batch of chicken wings. At $200 you are paying a brand premium, but the cooking consistency and build quality justify it if you air fry 3 or more times per week.

We tested the MultiFry FH1396 as a hands-off cooking solution, and the mixing paddle is the real differentiator here. It genuinely eliminates the need to pause and shake food every 10 minutes, which makes a real difference for stir-fry style dishes and risotto. At 210 EUR you are paying a premium, but you are getting a multi-cooker that does things no standard air fryer can. Best suited for cooks who want set-it-and-forget-it convenience and are willing to trade raw speed for versatility.

We found the HD9257 hits a sweet spot between price and performance. The see-through window is more than a gimmick. We used it constantly to check browning on fries and chicken without pulling out the drawer. At $150 for 5.6 qt with Rapid Air, it offers better value per quart than the Premium HD9630, and the included food separator is a nice bonus for weeknight dinners.

We found the PowerXL Vortex 5 QT to be a capable budget air fryer that punches above its price. The 5 qt basket handles meals for 2 to 3 people with no issues, and the rapid air technology produces evenly crispy food. At around $70, it is a solid pick for anyone who wants decent capacity without spending over $100.

We tested the Dash Deluxe 6 QT as a step up for anyone who loves Dash's design but needs more capacity. It delivers on that promise with a family-friendly 6 qt basket and a digital touchscreen. At $80, it enters a competitive price range where it faces strong options from Ninja and COSORI. We recommend it for Dash fans who want to stay in the ecosystem, but comparison shoppers should also look at the COSORI Pro LE at a similar price.

We found the De'Longhi FH2394 appeals to a specific buyer: someone who values a sealed, splatter-free cooking experience and is willing to pay for it. The transparent lid is genuinely useful, and the dual-heating system produced evenly cooked results in our tests without needing to shake or flip. It is not the fastest or cheapest option at 5.5L, but the sealed design and De'Longhi build quality make it a premium pick for European kitchens where cooking smells matter.

We tested the InoxBlack Pro 5500 as a budget option that does not look like one. The stainless steel body genuinely sets it apart from the sea of black plastic air fryers in this price range. Cooking performance was solid for everyday meals, though we noticed it took about 2 minutes longer than 2000W models to get crispy results. At 70 EUR, the combination of looks and capacity is hard to beat if you are shopping on a budget in Europe.

We tested the Princess 182055 as a mid-price option for people who want some dual-zone functionality without buying a full dual-basket fryer. The divider works well for separating fries from fish fingers or veggies from chicken, though portion sizes are limited when it is in place. Without the divider, the 5.2L basket handles family portions comfortably. At 80 EUR it is a versatile choice that sits between basic budget fryers and the pricier dual-basket models.

We tested the Bombastik 6000 as the absolute floor for air fryer pricing in Europe. At 60 EUR for a 6L unit, it is priced like a toaster but cooks like a proper air fryer. Fries came out crispy in about 18 minutes at 200C, and the basket held a full bag of frozen chips without crowding. The build quality is basic and the fan is loud, but if you just want to try air frying without spending much, this is a sensible entry point.

We found the Tristar FR-6998 to be a straightforward budget air fryer that does the basics well. It heated evenly in our tests, producing crispy fries and well-cooked chicken thighs at 200C. The 5.2L basket is generous for the price, fitting about 700g of fries per batch. It is not going to win awards for features or build quality, but at 65 EUR it is a reliable workhorse for daily cooking.
