I got this air fryer for my mother-in-law, and decided to test it first against mine, which isn’t Sunbeam brand, and is far more expensive. Oh boy wasn’t I surprised… I tested both with the same dishes (whole chicken, pork belly, rissoles, bacon) at the same settings and to my surprise – you couldn’t tell a difference when they were cooked. Save yourself some $$ and don’t overpay for the appliances that will give you the same result. Do I need to mention that the viewing window is just great. And there is a light as well! Now I wish my air fryer would have these. The only downside is that the basket and window cover are not dishwasher safe (tray is). But saying that, it’s only 3 pieces that need to be washed. My other brand has 5 (much bulkier as well), which take up a whole dishwasher, and instead of being a bless, it is a hassle and water + energy waste. Insanely great air fryer!

At first glance, the Alinea Pro DiamondForce 6L Air Fryer looks compact, sleek and doesn’t take much space. Once you look inside though, you realise how much space there is. I like to cook bigger portions so I have leftover for another day. The machine is super easy to use, the on screen navigation is spot on. Icons help you choose the general cook setting and if needed you can adjust temperature and time. I made banana chocolate protein muffins the other day and was suprised how effortless the whole process was. The window was really helpful to check on how much my muffins were baking along. Light turns off automatically after a few seconds to save energy but you can easily turn it back on. I’ll definitely include the air fryer in my meal preps and baking escapades. :)

I’ve got to share my love for the Sunbeam Alinea Pro DiamondForce 6L Air Fryer! This thing is fantastic. The 6-liter basket is a lifesaver. I've cooked salmon for my husband and me which was juicy and delicious, and it even handled a big batch of chips for a party that fed 8 people. One of my favourite features is the viewing window! It’s so nice to peek in without opening the fryer and losing all that heat, plus the internal light does a great job at lighting up the food. The DiamondForce coated tray makes it easy for healthy cooking as I don’t have to stress about food getting stuck, also means its super easy to clean. I also love how quick it is to use. I can just toss in some hand-cut sweet potato fries for my toddler after a long day at work. It’s compact enough to fit in my tiny kitchen, too! This is my go to on busy weeknights. Highly recommend it!
