At just $36, this Dash model proves air fryers don’t have to be so expensive

Air fryers are so popular right now, but they’re also often quite expensive. They’re worth every penny, of course, but not everyone wants to spend $100 or more on an air fryer. Check out the Dash Compact 1.2 L Electric Air Fryer Oven, which is currently on sale at a discount on Amazon. It’s nice and compact so it can fit on any countertop, and it does a terrific job of cooking up crispy food without all the oil you need to use in a deep fryer.
