Instant Pot is Great, Air Fryer is GARBAGE
I purchased this item after hearing everyone in my office talk about how much they love their instant pot or air fryer. So, I figured this would be the best of both worlds. After receiving the unit I realized that the majority of my needs would be for the air fryer. So I started making chicken fingers and french fries. After a few uses I noticed that the air fryer basket (which is coated in non-stick material, a toxic chemical) had a bunch of places where the non stick coating was missing. Upon further inspection I noticed it is chipping off and was most likely consumed by me while eating my chicken fingers. This is terrifying and I immediately reached out to the manufacturer, who told me they will ship me a replacement when they have one. I have waited over a month and this monstrosity of a kitchen appliance just sits on my counter taking up a ton of space. I wrote into Instant pot again and they offered me a modest discount a second instant pot product. Stay away from this product for air frying, it may have harmful effects on your health. Also, it has a large footprint and it comes with two big tops, so make sure you have the room for storing it.
