Instant Pot 6QT VORTEX Plus Air Fryer, 6-in-1, Air Fry, Broil, Dehydrate, Crisp, Roast, Reheat, Bake, Dishwash
What it is
A 6-quart air fryer that does six things—air fry, bake, roast, broil, dehydrate, reheat—in one compact countertop unit. If you're feeding a family or meal-prepping and want crispy results without the oil splatter, this is it.
Why it keeps winding up in carts
Over 22,000 people rated it 4.6 stars, which tells you the crowd consistently gets what they paid for: a workhorse that actually delivers on the "6-in-1" promise without drama.
A serious upgrade to family cooking—flexible, reliable, and genuinely worth the counter space.
You're looking at a 6-quart capacity with six distinct cooking modes and a temperature range of 95–400°F, all built to handle weeknight dinners and weekend meal prep.
At $119.99 (down from $149.99), you're paying less per function than buying a dedicated air fryer plus a toaster oven, and the build quality—stainless steel, Instant Pot backing—backs the value.
Who it is forFamilies, meal preppers, and anyone with limited counter space who wants versatility without sacrificing capacity or ease.
What to check before you buy
Capacity & Coverage
That's genuinely family-sized. You can fit a whole sheet's worth of vegetables, a full batch of wings, or enough sides for a dinner party without resort to batch cooking. The size is serious about reducing your cooking sessions.
Versatility in Heat
The range matters. You can dehydrate fruit at 95°F or crank broil at 400°F for a quick sear. Bake mode lets you do cinnamon rolls or sheet-pan dinners. This isn't a one-trick device; it genuinely rewrites your oven-to-countertop pipeline.
User Experience
No learning curve. The touchscreen guides you through each stage, and cleanup is a rinse or a dishwasher cycle—not a production. That convenience is worth noting if you're the type who abandons gadgets that feel like extra work.

Where this sits
Air fryers have become the default for faster, less-oily cooking, but this model stands out because it actually does more than air frying—the dehydrate and bake functions open up options beyond the typical frozen-fries-and-chicken-wings routine.
