A quiet, self-cleaning premium fryer with a huge flat surface that fits a 12-inch pizza, but its shallow drawer limits tall foods and Wirecutter found its results middling for the price.
Top complaints
- Shallow drawer
Many low-star Walmart reviews say the pan is so shallow that chicken legs, thick steaks, big potatoes or even a bell pepper won't fit. Wirecutter also found the huge basket hard to hold with one hand.

Wirecutter found it slow to reach max temperature, with middling results that didn't beat much cheaper models. Value for money is a mixed aspect on Amazon.
- Uneven cooking, app and self-clean gripes
Some Walmart owners report uneven or undercooked food, app connection trouble, and self-clean needing Wi-Fi. A few also mention a warped basket base or a loosening handle.

What owners love
- Even cooking on a wide surface
Amazon shoppers say it cooks evenly top to bottom and fits a whole 12-inch pizza. Tech Advisor credits the dual heating elements.
- Quiet
Tech Advisor rates it at about 59-60 dB, roughly fridge-level, and quiet operation is a positive aspect on Amazon.

Tech Advisor says a high-heat cycle burns off grease so the interior mostly just needs a wipe.

What experts say
- Wirecutter (NYT): Dismissed: heavy and massive, it struggled to reach max temperature and produced middling results; the basket is hard to hold one-handed.
- Tech Advisor: Unusually well designed, with even results from dual heating; cons are the large footprint, a single cooking zone and a very high price.
