It is ready to do that due to a pair options most air fryers lack: twin top-and-bottom burners, and a broad cooking floor. The Dome 2 is formed otherwise from different air fryers: Its 5.6-quart basket is shallow, but additionally expansive sufficient you’ll be able to lay out a 12-inch pizza or two dozen celebration wings throughout its floor. This maximizes cooking area, and in addition air move throughout a single layer of meals.
But in addition, this implies warmth can come from each the highest or the underside, to prepare dinner completely different meals otherwise: A grill operate heats through direct warmth, from the underside. Thus the great char or leopard spots on my pork chops or pizza.
As a facet profit, the Dome 2 has a self-clean operate identical to the one in your oven that’ll burn off any aerosolized oil, which means it will not begin to odor humorous or smoke as you retain on utilizing it. Firmware updates have added just a few options, like guide begins on the self-clean operate.
The draw back is that it is large: The Dome 2 takes up numerous area in your counter, and can also be a bit cumbersome to tug out and in of a cupboard. It is best for the one that really loves the pace, crispness, and simple clean-up of an air fryer however likes the added grill or toasting capabilities as a bonus.
