Mayer is a homegrown household brand in Singapore and it’s no surprise they have 10 different air fryers under their name alone! We’ve picked out their most futuristic looking Mayer 5.5L Digital Air Fryer, which has a sensor touch control panel and 60 minutes timer. At 5.5 L, its large size is great for whipping up a Crispy Fried Chicken with Sambal or Prata Curry Puff for bigger families. The steeper price point compared to its competitors does come with added functionalities. You can expect 7 different presents for cooking, including ones to cook your poultry, seafood and fries to perfection. Safety-wise, we like their overheating protection (who wants to clean out a burnt air fryer?!) and the automatic cut-off switch.

Another well-known cooking appliance brand is Cornell from USA, which has a mid-range Cornell 4L Air Fryer for your healthy cooking needs. Compared to other low-wattage Air Fryers, Cornell’s 1300W coil-like heating element allows better and even heat distribution. That’s right think of your Pisang Nuggets, which are made to be crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. There’s a detachable basket to unload all those goodies, which also makes it easy to clean once you are done.

Did you know Philips was the pioneer of the Air Fryer? That’s right – In 2010, they introduced this amazing new technology to the world. It won the top five inventions award at the prestigious Internationale Funkausstellun (IFA). It has received rave reviews from households all over the world and is considered one of the best in terms of the evenness of cooking and crispiness. We picked out this little Philips Air Fryer from their expansive range as it works well for smaller families or individuals who don’t have as much kitchen space. Their patented Rapid Air Technology was the initial invention that led to all of us being able to enjoy deep fried food without the health costs. Their Air Fryer circulates hot air around a metal mesh cooking basket and its starfish design on the bottom ensures air circulation. You definitely get what you pay for with the trusted quality from Philips. We are ready for some crunchy snacks now! Are you?

With a 10L capacity, this behemoth of an Air Fryer will definitely serve all your party needs. Yes, this Roman 10L Deli Air Fryer can fit 25-30 Vietnamese Spring Rolls for your celebration needs, and feed up to an average of 15 people when used at max capacity. Throw a small whole chicken or turkey in there to make an XL version of Soy Fried Peppery Chicken even! We singled out this Air Fryer as unlike its drawer compartment competitors, it pops open just like a modern rice cooker, and you can watch your food being cooked. It is more difficult to check on your food for drawer-type Air Fryers as you have to remove the drawer entirely to determine how cooked the food is. So while this open-top Air Fryer is less portable, it makes up for it with a see-through cover.
