It’s annoying, and makes this air fryer unsuitable for those who prefer to tip the basket, rather than use tongs, to remove food after cooking. Since the capacity of the latest Vortex Plus is 5.7 litres / 6 quarts, we plumped for our usual 450g / 1lb batch of steak-cut fries, rather than reducing it as we did to account for the smaller frying basket of the dual-drawer model. We selected the Air Fry cooking mode but raised the default temperature from 196ºC / 385ºF to 204ºC / 400ºF, setting the cooking duration to 15 minutes. The results were crisp and evenly browned fries on the outside, with soft and fluffy potato on the inside.

Once the cooking time had passed, we had crunchy, evenly browned fries that were soft and fluffy inside. The air fryer has a capacity of 5.7 litres / 6 quarts, which Instant says is sufficient for six portions. It’s a versatile appliance, too, offering the ability to roast, bake, grill, dehydrate and reheat food, as well as air fry. Note, too, that this Instant air fryer is quieter in use than its predecessor, measuring just 51.7db on our decibel meter – which is equivalent to the gentle hum of a refrigerator. The ClearCook window lets you check on the cooking progress of food, without having to open the frying drawer, which would affect the stability of the temperature in the cavity. However, just like the instant pot duo nova Plus, we found that this model’s crisper plate falls out easily if the frying basket is tipped up too much.
We were impressed by the ClearCook windows and light, which meant we could monitor cooking, checking just how brown our food was getting. Also useful was the reminder to shake function, which provides an audible instant vortex and visual prompt to shake or turn food so that hot air can reach every inch of it. The Instant™Vortex™ is perfect for quick meals on the go, with EvenCrisp™ technology for crispy, tender results every time.
