## What reviewers say

**Instant Vortex Plus 6qt Air Fryer 6-in-1** — All three whitelisted outlets (Good Housekeeping, TechRadar, Reviewed) hands-on tested this exact Instant Vortex Plus 6-qt / 6-in-1 air fryer and recommend it: crisp, evenly browned results on fries and wings, fast cooking, dishwasher-safe cleanup, and an easy-to-use touchscreen. Good Housekeeping and Reviewed both single out the ClearCook viewing window as genuinely useful. Main gripes are no printed recipes (you lean on the Instant app), a bulky countertop footprint, and TechRadar's note that it is one of the pricier air fryers. The OdorErase filter divides testers. (3 sourced reviews.)

**Typhur Dome 2 AI Smart Air Fryer (AF03)** — Only one whitelisted tester — WIRED (Matthew Korfhage) — published hands-on prose on this exact Typhur Dome 2, naming it Best Air Fryer Overall (8/10, WIRED Recommends). RTINGS is member-paywalled and Reviewed.com tested the older original Dome, so both were excluded. WIRED praises its speed (two dozen wings crisp in 14 minutes), even single-layer crisping, dual top/bottom burners, a working smart app and self-clean; the caveats are its high price and a shallow 2-inch basket that forces spatchcocking a whole chicken to fit. A draft temp-accuracy measured value ('within 5-10 °F') was dropped because the source prose reads 'within five or 10 degrees of target' — the literal value/unit was not present. (1 sourced review.)
