Lets gets the bad out of the way... This unit is big and heavy...in a good way, so if you do not have space in your kitchen, this is not for you Air fry bucket is on the small size for some, specially if you are used to a Nuwave with a second level Is faster than a grill...the only reason I put it here first, is because people will go by time instead of temperature of meat and will blame the unit... This thing IS TRULY smokeless, see my pics, I on purpose marinated the steaks and even added some olive oil to the marinade, why? because my GF wanted to try it that way and it was the hardest smoke test for this, so, if your Idea of a great steak is salt, pepper and maybe garlic...you will also love this unit. 2 steaks, about an inch thick for 12 minutes, flipped at the 6min mark...came out Med/Well 2 steaks, same size 9 minutes they came out medium...ish (I will give them 8 minutes next time WITH GRILL Marks!!! and Char flavor! this will not replace your smoker or real charcoal grill...but if you only need 2 steaks (maybe 3) you will have them done, inside and under 15 minutes. I did not try chicken, but just imagine, grill marks and crispy skin if you start skin side down before flips! Remember, this thing is cooking from both sides with a hurricane of hot air. Don't blame the machine if you go by time only. Cupcakes, small round pan... 5 Minutes...yup, 5 minutes! Cut 4 regular sized potatoes... put them on the basket, about 12 minutes later, I had fries, crispy and delicious...and against the rules, used unfiltered olive oil...again...zero smoke! Cleaning...is "easy" basically like any slow cooker, I see at some point you will have to clean the area where the basket and the pot sits, but is not a big deal, the grill. The splash guard does a great job to keep the heating element clean and at some point I also see using some oven cleaner to clean that...again, no big deal. Overall this is a great unit... while it will not replace my extended ring Nuwave for larger cooking and the Nuwave round open setup, this WILL replace my other inside grill as while both are smokeless, this one sears meat and gives the great char flavor we all look for.
