Unlike many traditional air fryers, the Instant Vortex Plus has a window. Instead of opening the air fryer every 10 minutes to see if your food is crisping, watch it get that delicious crunch while it's air frying without letting all the heat out of your device. 

The Instant Vortex Plus can also roast, broil, bake, reheat and dehydrate food. What's unique about this device is that it features a progress bar and will display a message when it's time to add in the food (after pre-heating) or flip it over for maximum crisping. It can reach up to 400 degrees.

"I really like that I can check on my food without disturbing the cooking process," CBS Essentials senior writer Lily Rose says. "This machine is easy to use, but I do wish that it had a few more functions or accessories." 

This air fryer is currently on sale for $120 (regularly $160).

Why we like the Instant Vortex Plus

  • We love the little window and that the machine alerts you at all the right times. 
  • The basket and tray are dishwasher safe.

The Nespresso Vertuo Next allows you to brew single serve coffee or espresso at the touch of a button. The espresso maker can brew three different cup sizes and offer an ultra-fast, 25-second heat-up time.
