Tefal ActiFry 2-en-1 YV9601
We found the 2-en-1 solves a real problem: cooking fries and a protein at the same time without mixing flavors. In our test, we cooked 1 kg of fries on the bottom with the paddle and chicken drumsticks on the upper tray. Both were ready in about 40 minutes with no flavor transfer. The tradeoff is size. At 42 cm wide and 6.2 kg, this machine needs a dedicated spot on your counter. At 229 EUR, a Ninja dual-basket fryer gives you independent temperature zones for about the same price. But if you want the hands-off paddle system for a larger household, the 2-en-1 is the only option.
Tefal Easy Fry and Grill XL
The Tefal Easy Fry and Grill XL is unique among air fryers because the grill function actually works. We tested it with burgers, chicken thighs, and vegetables, and the die-cast grill plate left proper grill marks with good char. At $130, the capacity is a bit small compared to what Ninja and Cosori offer at this price, but if you specifically want that grill capability, no other air fryer does it as well.
