It seems like there’s a appliance for everything, now, which means that versatility is what truly sets a product apart.
Instant’s Omni Air Fryer Toaster would be a solid contender for “most multi-functional” in a majority of kitchens, and is a great option for those constantly jockeying for space with their roommates in Brooklyn/Austin/Los Angeles apartments. It’s a 7-in-1, it’s from the makers of the famed Instant Pot, and it’s $99.99 on Amazon today — the lowest it’s ever been.
Its seven talents are this: It can air fry, broil, bake, roast, toast, warm, and use convection technology — all in one sleek and compact package. (That means air-fried wings, pizza, or up to six slices of bread at a time.) The Instant Pot sibling also boasts “EvenCrisp Technology,” which the company says prevents uneven cooking.
It’s also got an extra-large capacity (19 quarts), easily accommodating a 12-inch pizza or even a whole chicken. It preheats, and its wide temperature range of 95 to 400°F allows for precise cooking, on top of three different toasting levels for bread.
Reviewers say that’s it’s a great bargain for the price, and that bargain is now supercharged at 50% off. They also say that the appliance is as dexterous as it promises, shifting from chicken to fries to baked potatoes with ease, and without skimping on any of the dishes. Plus, it’s easy to clean — a notorious pain for air fryers — because it’s just the one tray to pull out. No hidden crevices.
A device to cover most of your Friendsgiving meals. Assuming you’re not Ina Garten ambitious.
