Compared To Other Air Fryers

MasterChef AF9003A

The MasterChef AF9003A and the Black+Decker ID1901-1BDC are both small air fryers available in Canada, but the MasterChef is the better option overall. Most importantly, the Black+Decker produces terrible-quality fried food; less than a quarter of each batch comes out crispy, with the rest being either over or undercooked. Furthermore, it takes a long time to achieve this result. The MasterChef, while still somewhat slow, works much faster and produces good-quality fried food in the end. It's also a bit more versatile, with a dehydrating setting that can access a lower temperature range.
