Kitchen Elite® Air Fryer Oven Stainless Steel, XL 8.5QT Large Airfryer with View Window, 10 one-touch Functions, Precise Temp Control, 90% Less Oil, Rapid Heating, Roast, Dehydrate, 1700W [Enhanced]

I like this air fryer for the eye-catching design with stainless steel, size, power of 1700W, the price, and viewing window, which is really nice. Even though I appreciate the quick pre-set temperatures for certain food items, I wish it had the capability to adjust the temperature to cook other food items. I looked at the other Kitchen Elite model (AF-102-85QT-SSW-AMZ) that was released March 15, 2024 and saw that it has frequent returns. This model (KE-AF-114-85QT-AMZ) was released November 13, 2024 and one would think Kitchen Elite would've upgraded with the adjustable temperature function. Without the ability to adjust the temperature, you can't try different foods. However, the air fryer is easy to use, I'm not sure what the two wavy images mean on the left side of the function panel, under the bake function. One plus, when using for the first time, is I didn't experience any factory smells that other people complained about with other air fryers. Reading the owner's manual is somewhat annoying, due to many typo errors. In saying all of this, I haven't made up my mind whether or not I'm going to return the air fryer. In the meantime, I will do a review update after a few usage. But I'm leaning more on keeping it after researching many other brands.REVIEW UPDATE 1/21/2025 from 2 stars to 5 stars: A very helpful KitchenElite Support Team Member reached out and offered assistance on how to adjust the temperature on the Air Fryer. Have to press the Temp|Time function and then press the -/+ function. I discovered I had to press the Temp|Time function twice before it switches to change the Time function. The temperature decreases in 5 degree increments. My question about the wavy images on the left side of the panel under the Bake function was answered as well (since they didn't have words describing what they were, others were common sense to figure out). The first wavy image directly under the Bake function is for Broil and the one under that is Keep Warm.Now, I'm loving the Air Fryer and my husband likes it as well. We've used it multiple times since receiving it on January 11, 2025. I cooked chicken wings (twice), French fries multiple times, frozen hot wings. The reheat function is fabulous. It's perfect for reheating pizza slices.I highly recommend this Air Fryer.

Cleaning is also a breeze thanks to the removable and dishwasher-safe parts.If you’re looking for a reliable, efficient, and stylish air fryer, this is definitely the one to get.

Air Fryer worked for like a month and when it did it was great. Basket comes out and you can detach the handle and wash it with ease. So, I didn't use the air fryer for like a couple weeks and when I went to turn it on it wouldn't work. So, I contacted the company through their website, and they were fantastic! Within 24 hours they shipped out a NEW not refurbished air fryer. They kept in contact with me and gave me the tracking info. What I was not expecting was to receive the air fryer within 2 days of hearing from them. I got the new air fryer, everyone in my house is now happy and goit used 3 times already!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Didn’t work, I’m so sad because I had my eye on this product for a bit. Decided to cave in and get it just for it to not work.Size:It’s large but doesn’t work or cut on

I use an air fryer almost every day and this one doesn’t disappoint. It has a large basket and a window so you don’t have to open it to see how things are doing. I always use a liner but it’s very easy to clean. It has a lot of settings for a variety of foods which makes it easy to select the right one. I love it for quick healthy side dishes.

We purchased this unit or received it on 4/12/25. While it seems bit smaller than our older 7.6 qt. unit, which isn't available anymore, but we're able to make it work for our family...tighter fit for some food than in our previous unit. It also has a bit less power...1700 rather than 1750 watts. However, thus far the unit works well and is easier to clean with its removable basket insert. For its price, we're pleased.

I decided to buy a bigger air fryer when I got tired of cooking all my chicken one piece at a time. With air frying bigger is better. I bought the Kitchen Elite 8.5 qt air fryer and loved the ease of cooking meals all at once. It also is much easier to clean than my old one. I bought a reconditioned one and after a few months it wouldn’t turn on. The return windows had closed so I emailed the company. They responded within hours, and after a couple of emails my new machine was on It's way. Customer service couldn’t get any better. Highly recommended!

So I purchased this air fryer back in September 2024 and it stopped working on me after only three months (not sure why). I reached out to the company and they sent me a replacement no questions asked and free to me. As consumers, we know that many companies have lost integrity in regards to their customer service, however, Elite Kitchen is not one of those companies. The air fryer itself works very well. It isn’t noisy and it cooks the food evenly. I would highly recommend this brand to anyone.
