Instant Vortex Mini 2 Quart Air Fryer
4.5
(12300 reviews)
We tested the Vortex Mini in a small apartment kitchen and it felt right at home. At under $40, it is the cheapest way to get into the Instant air fryer ecosystem. The 2 qt basket realistically serves one person, maybe two if you are making a side dish. It crisped up frozen fries in about 18 minutes and chicken wings in 22 minutes. For solo cooks, college students, or anyone short on counter space, this little unit punches above its price.
