The Beautiful air fryer (6-qt) is a medium-sized, budget-friendly air fryer from Drew Barrymore's kitchenware company, Beautiful by Drew. Like other products from the brand, it's exclusively available at Walmart. It stands out for its appearance, as it comes in several different pastel colors that all have gold-colored accents. It has a single drawer with enough capacity for about four people, so it's more compact than the brand's other air fryer, the Beautiful 9QT TriZone air fryer. It's also not as versatile, as it has narrower temperature and fan speed ranges.
Our Verdict
The Beautiful air fryer (6-qt) is good. It produces good-quality fried food, so vegetables, breaded meat like chicken wings, or frozen snacks like French fries come out mostly crispy and golden brown. It's fast, and its 6-qt basket has a good amount of surface area, so you can spread food out in one layer. However, it's less versatile than some air fryers, with only four presets. It would also perform better if its maximum fan speed was faster.

Popular Air Fryer Comparisons
The Beautiful air fryer (6-qt) is a medium-sized model with a somewhat bulky design for its 6-qt capacity. It doesn't have as wide a temperature range or as many fan speeds as some air fryers, like the COSORI TurboBlaze or the bigger Beautiful 9QT TriZone. You can't use a medium fan speed to avoid drying out baked goods, and it doesn't have a 'Broil' function. However, it produces good-quality fried food and does a good job of maintaining a stable temperature compared to fryers like the 6-qt COSORI or the BELLA 6qt Pro 90165. This makes it easier to predict when your food will be ready and follow recipes accurately.

The Beautiful 6qt Digital performs better than the T-fal Easy Fry XL. While both produce good-quality fried food, the Beautiful cooks faster and recovers its temperature faster after adding food to the basket. It's also more versatile, with a wider temperature range and different fan speeds. The T-fal takes up less space on your countertop but also has a smaller capacity and less surface area to arrange food in a single layer.
The Beautiful 6qt Digital is a better air fryer than the Salton AF2085. It makes better-quality fried food and delivers results faster. It also offers more versatility with a wider temperature range and variable fan speed, so you can use it to roast, reheat, and dehydrate, as well as air fry. The Beautiful also maintains a more stable temperature, which makes it easier to follow recipes and means the air fryer is less likely to dry out or burn your food. Finally, the Beautiful also comes in a variety of colors, so you can choose one that suits your style and decor.
Test Results

The basket has a big cooking surface area, giving you more room to arrange your food in a single layer compared to some air fryers with a similar capacity, like the BELLA 6qt Pro 90165.
It's decently versatile, with multiple fan speeds and a fairly wide range of temperatures. However, it can't get as hot as the Beautiful 9QT TriZone, which has a 450-degree max temperature. Its maximum fan speed is also slower.
However, it still offers four different modes for different recipes and methods.
- Air Fry: Max 1 hour, 170 - 400 °F default temp, maximum fan speed
- Roast: Max 1 hour, 350 - 400 °F default temp
- Reheat: Max 1 hour, 170 °F default temp
- Dehydrate: Max 24 hours, 90-170 °F, minimum fan speed
It has decent temperature stability. This air fryer returns to temperature pretty quickly after you add food. However, it doesn't maintain that stable of a temperature during cooking, which can make it a bit more difficult to follow recipes or cook delicate foods.
