MegaChef supersizes the air fryer without taking over your counter.

Key Features

- 1700 Watt Power: Strong, fast heat gives food a crisp exterior while keeping the inside tender, using little oil.
- Adjustable Temperature: Set anywhere from 175F to 400F to air fry, roast or reheat exactly how each food needs.
- Viewing Window and Light: A transparent window and interior light let you check browning without interrupting the cook.
- LED Display: A clear lit panel with word prompts makes setting time and temperature simple.
- Built-In Safety: The unit shuts off when the basket is pulled out, and a cool-touch handle and non-slip feet keep things safe and steady.
- Nonstick, Dishwasher-Safe Basket: Food releases easily and the removable parts are dishwasher safe for quick cleanup.
Before You Buy

- Temperature and time are set manually; there are no one-touch food presets.
- This is a single-basket fryer, not a dual-zone model, so foods share one cooking chamber.
- It stands about 12.5 inches tall, so leave headroom under cabinets.

Why choose the MegaChef Air Fryer
Stop opening to check
Every time you pull a basket to peek, heat escapes and cooking stalls. The lit viewing window lets you watch food brown and know exactly when it is ready.
Healthier without the mess
Deep frying means oil, splatter and cleanup. Rapid hot air crisps your favorites with little to no oil, and the nonstick basket drops into the dishwasher when you are done.
