Air fryers are a modern miracle — they make awesome wings, fries and mozzarella sticks, for starters, but they can make a ton of different foods quickly and easily. Of course, the name is pure marketing-speak. Nothing is getting fried; it’s really just a specialized convection oven. Let’s put semantics aside, though, and celebrate the fact that you can get the PowerXL 1700W 10-quart Vortex Air Fryer Pro Oven for just $50 when you apply promo code CNETPXL at checkout.
This air fryer usually sells for $120 or more when new (it’s selling for $120 at Amazon right now), but this is a manufacturer refurb. The best refurb price I could find is $55 on eBay, and so this deal beats that price by $5.
This PowerXL model is unique in that it’s much roomier than average. Most air fryers average 6 quarts or less, but this one holds a massive 10 quarts. PowerXL makes good use of the space with oven-style shelving, so you can arrange different foods on two levels. You control the fryer via an LED touchscreen and it has a dozen presets for food settings like French fries, roast, baking, fish, chicken, rotisserie, pizza, dehydrator and more.
