Xianke 8.5 Liter Air Fryer

Xianke 8.5 Liter Air Fryer is bought for one reason above all others: size. A 3 or 4 litre basket forces a family of five or six to cook in two or three rounds, and the first batch is cold before the last one is done. With 8.5 litres you put the whole snack in at once.

As an 8.5 Liter Air Fryer it cooks by circulating hot air instead of submerging food in oil. Samosas, nuggets, chicken pieces and potato chips come out crisp on the outside using only a fraction of the oil a deep fryer needs — which is the practical appeal of an Oil Free Air Fryer in a household that has been told to cut down on frying.

It is versatile beyond frying: baking, reheating and warming up frozen food all happen in the same appliance, so the deep frying pan, the oil pot and the strainer stop taking up counter space. This Xianke Air Fryer also keeps the kitchen cleaner, because there is no pan of hot oil throwing smoke and smell around the room.

Controls are kept simple, so a first-time user can work it out without a long manual. If you are choosing a Large Capacity Air Fryer, start with basket size rather than features — for a household of five or more, an Air Fryer for Big Family at 8.5 litres is what removes the second batch entirely.

Important Usage Instructions

• Preheat the fryer for a few minutes before adding food for evenly crisp results.
• Do not fill the basket past its maximum line — hot air needs room to circulate.
• Shake or turn the basket halfway through so both sides brown evenly.
• Leave at least a hand's width of clear space behind and above the unit for hot air to escape.
• Let the basket cool, then wash it separately; never immerse the main body in water.
