   Initial thoughts on the 14-in-1 Omni Pro. Nice design, easy to read display, and easy to clean. This will literally replace several other small appliances in my kitchen and that is just fine by me.Packaging was great but not excessive. It arrived safely with all pieces and parts securely in place. It comes with a nice, fry basket, tray and rack, as well as the rotisserie pieces. Also, the emptied box doubled as a fun playspace for my cats.The included cookbook was pretty much a waste, with overly elaborate recipes that no one buying an air fryer wants – lamb skewers, chicken with pruned mushrooms, and other such nonsense. Toss it. Instant Pot, take note: people who buy these things want recipes for decent pizza, chicken wings, fried pickles, breakfast bakes, biscuits, NOT braised veal with mango aioli.If you have concerns about “burning plastic” smells, that is not an issue with this model. I did the 20-minute test run and any smells emitted were not intense and were the equivalent to a new microwave that I purchased. After the test run, there were no noticeable odors, other than the smells of delicious food cooking. It should also be noted that it runs quietly, with just the sound of a fan blowing. Other models may have rattling, this one does not.This air fryer toaster oven turned an inexpensive self-rising frozen pizza into a work of art! I did use a slightly lower cook temperature than was suggested on the pizza box and watched it to make sure I didn’t burn it, since I’ve never used this before. I loved being able to see what is cooking and having the ability to turn the oven light on is great.The temperature probe is great for meats. Keep in mind, that generally if you’re aiming for an internal temp of 165, you want to set it for 155 or 160 because the meat will continue to cook after being removed from the oven. If you take it out when it has an actual internal temperature of 165, it will be overdone by the time it rests.If you’re new to this (like me) test this with some cheaper foods – frozen pizza, biscuits in a tube, chicken drumsticks or thighs. That way you won’t feel bad if you overcook it or something goes wrong.The rotisserie was one of the big selling points on this, for me, but keep in mind that the limit on it is a 4 pound bird. I’ve seen people griping about this limitation, but this isn’t a dedicated rotisserie, it’s just a nice added feature. I’m considering trying a chicken leg quarter tied with butcher’s twine, in lieu of an adequately-sized chicken, I will update this review whenever I decide to try that, but there are grocery stores that sell smaller chickens. It’s also noteworthy that people at farmer’s markets and Amish markets tend to sell chickens that aren’t all ‘roided up, so check those out if you have any of those near where you live.Unlike the manufacturer’s claim – preheating does not take “seconds”. It takes a few hundred seconds (roughly 5 minutes). Not terrible, but it is an unnecessary and exaggerated claim. It may not be up to full cooking temp when the preheat cycle is over, but it’s close enough.I probably will invest in something other than a microwave cart to place it on because obviously it does get quite warm to the touch and I don’t want my animals jumping on it. Hopefully the door handle will be redesigned at some point because after 20 minutes of cooking on 400 degrees it was a bit overly warm.I’m very impressed with this machine and plan on making every meal with it for the next 30 days to see how it holds up. This is great for a single person. This is great for a family (unless you have a huge family). It’s versatile, compact, doesn’t heat up the whole house and fun to experiment with. Don’t be swayed by negative reviews – this is a fantastic way to cook!!

   PRO: See thru window is a plus; really crispy foods with air frying; quick, quiet and great for a couple or smaller eaters up to 4 people.CON: can be very dangerous! Bake cycle when making something loose like macaroni & cheese. No lifts for pan to place in or retrieve! You set the oven temp and the time bake and it preheats!!! Now it is hot! How do you slip in the baking pan without scorching knuckles! I had to take the whole basket out to cool it – No way to retrieve. Now off to find a lift of some sort!CON: no directions in package. Waste of time to find out essentials not obvious. If making fries, nuggets, etc simple to figure out on your own…but other things like the bake cycle would be nice to know what essentials you need to buy or they should include like LIFTING HANDLES. Would be nice to include a circular about sizes of pans you need, etc and what to buy!!! Spend hours researching on your own! Ridiculous.For older people or younger people this can be dangerous. Thank GOLLY for AMAZON who delivers quick! This would be fun instead of aggravating! I can only review baking and frying because haven’t used the other settings. Their Web leaves a lot to be desired. For selling, simple. Made out like recipes were available but they didn’t say for all their sizes all mixed up for all the appliances they sell! I gave up and bought a book for two cooking with air fryers! First AirFryer for us to own so maybe for the rest of you out there in the quick cooking world you do not have the issues we just had.UPDATE: BOUGHT NECESSARY ITEMS TO BE ABLE TO USE THIS…and since have found many videos on YouTube and really enjoying this item. So changed from 4 stars to 5 stars. Like so many appliances today you have to download complete manuals. Thats just the way of life. So really happy with this little cooker. Do you need it? Probably not! But it sure cooks fast and you get excellent results when you understand what to do and there is lots of information out there. So just read! Made beautiful wedge potatoes last night with a chicken that usually we would grill and used the AirFryer feature and both were excellent. Now looking for another great dinner for tonight that is really quick. The preheat is so quick, not sure it is necessary at all. The CON that I find now is the tray that fits in basket will dump with the food, so watch out! If you know this, you can use a hot mitt to catch it! Laughing. So just pay attention.

   I am very pleased with this product. The 6 functions in one appliance has allowed it to replace two appliances that were taking up counter space. I have used the grill and air fryer function several times. Preheats quickly and lets you know when it’s ready. It cooks perfectly, nice and crispy minus the grease when air frying and when grilling the meat turns out tasty and cooked like it’s been on an outdoor grill (even has perfect grill marks!). It even beeped when grilling to let me know it’s time to flip the food! Nice and roomy cooking space. I cooked four very large burgers at once. Odor was minimal. Much less than if I would have cooked in a pan on the stove top. And I appreciated the large glass lid that allows you to see your foods progress. Controls are easy to use and the instructions that came with it are too. I like the knob that allows you to turn to easily change temperature and cooking time. Easy cleanup which to me is a very important feature! That determines how often I will use it. The lid comes off easily and can be washed separately. Grill grate and air fry basket can be put in dishwasher! Easy peasy! The oil collector makes for easy draining of grease. A very useful addition to my kitchen! Love it!

   This is my 3rd air fryer. I have the gourmand one from Costco a few years ago. Didn’t use it much as we kept it in the basement and only brought it up as needed. Wasn’t the easiest to use. I recently got the cosori based on the reviews. It looked very sleek and nice but could not get rid of the plastic smell even after running it several times. Got the instant pot one on sale during black Friday. Have used it several times already and love it! Besides being able to see how the food looks without opening it, it is just super easy to use, no fuss at all and really cooks the food well. No smell of plastic. Really happy with this purchase!
