I’ve had the Dash Compact Air Fryer for nearly 6 months, and I love it. It’s small and prefect for 1-2 people. Great quick toaster oven that creates health crispy food with little or no oil. It works by circulating air over the top of the food, so you need to flip over or toss the food.PROS: It’s perfectly cooks food that comes in smaller pieces (french fries) or meat that cooks up quickly (beef, shrimp, salmon). Oven Fried Chicken: I could never get my oven fried chicken to get crispy like a oil deep fryer. After baking it in the oven, I would quickly air fry for 5 minutes to give in a crispy skin and coating. Frozen Fries: Works well with most types of frozen french fries, but Shoe String Fries are the best for air frying due to their thin cut.CONS:1. The Non-Stick Coating. A lot of comments complain about the non-stick coating flaking off. Many modern cooking appliances have cheap non-stick coating, and this is no exception. I used to have a Foreman grill that had the same problem. I learned through past experience to use parchment paper under my food to prevent the food from sticking and the flaking of the non-stick coating. PRO-TIP: For the Dash Compact Air Fryer, I used the removable circular tray to trace and cut out perfect parchment paper liners (see pictures). It makes clean up super easy and preserves the coating on the cooking surface. I added a picture of my air fryer tray after 6 months of regular use (looks like new). It takes about a minute to cut the parchment paper to size, and I usually pre-cut a dozen ahead of time. Don’t pre-heat the air-fryer with parchment paper inside because it will be blown up into the heating element and burn the paper. Make sure the parchment paper is weighed down by food.2. The Spring-loaded Timer. The manual timer is spring loaded and requires sufficient tension to be accurate. If you set the timer for less than 5 minutes, it will turn off before the 5 minutes. I’m not certain if this is a design flaw or just my machine (your mileage may vary). I wouldn’t recommend cooking anything for less the 5 minutes. Most food requires more than 5 minutes, so this shouldn’t be a huge problem.3. Thick food. This is not just a problem for this brand or model. All air fryers operate by pushing hot air over the surface of the food. So, thinner slices of food work better. I wouldn’t cook a thick cut of steak in it (unless you like it blue) or thick cuts of pork/chicken. As I mentioned above, I would bake thicker pieces of meat in the oven and crisp the outside in the air fryer. For food cut into small pieces (like fries), lay them on the tray in a single thin layer. Don’t fill the basket to top.Despite the few drawbacks, I love the Dash Compact Air Fryer. It doesn’t do everything, but it’s great at one thing: making things crispy. I use it for baked salmon, crisp up baked fried chicken, cook frozen fries, burgers, bratwurst, etc. It permanently replaced my toaster oven, and its thinner footprint means I save counter space.PS: If you have leftover fried food, try re-heating it in the air fryer. It will make it crispy again.

This air fryer works great! We have been pleased with everything we have cooked in it – fries, chicken nuggets, tater tots, even a burger. I wanted a smaller, compact fryer because I was a huge doubter about air fryers in general and didn’t want to spend a lot on a “what if.” Now that I know they’re so useful if I bought another one I would definitely get a digital timer. This Dash model has a knob for a timer. If you go past the minutes you want you cannot turn it backwards. Plus it is difficult to see how many minutes you have set it for or how many minutes are remaining. I painted a white line on the knob to make it easier to read. But the issue that irks me the most is that the finish is already worn off the basket handle (see photo). I have had this fryer for 23 days and it has been used maybe 12-15 times. There is no reason why it should already be showing wear. I have submitted a replacement request to Dash.Update #1 6/2/2022 – Because I had this fryer less than 30 days Dash requires that it be returned to Amazon. I have done this and a new, same-model fryer is being sent to me. I assume this same wear issue will happen with the second fryer. If it does I will definitely shop for another brand.Update #2 6/30/2022 – The finish on the replacement (second) fryer also began wearing off after only three weeks. I’m finished with Dash products and have already purchased a different brand fryer. I do not recommend this fryer.

This was my 3rd Dash… I’ve been using them daily, actually several times per day, for several years. The company stands behind their products and have been great regarding returns and replacements. I had one fan and one handle wear out. Since my apartment is extremely small, it is too hot to use my oven and stovetop much. Therefore I use my Dash to brown anything that will fit in it! Great solution for small spaces! I position it so that the exhaust goes right up to my stove’s hood fan. I researched several brands and this is the BEST for ease of use, a decently sized drip pan, and a small footprint!

This is a nice air fryer and if you’re an experienced air fryer and need one for snacks in tight quarters, go for it.However, if you’re a solo cook and want to try the air fryer to cook real food, buy a larger one from the git-go. Forget volume, buy the largest basket surface you can find (I suggest a minimum of 7″ x 7″ to accommodate small cookware) and at least 1500 watts.As a solo cook I’ve been thrilled with a 6qt. air fryer from Ultrean. Good value for the money and you get the real air fryer experience.
