Good for the home, dorm or office
I was looking for a small-dimension air fryer on a reasonable budget for the office. A quick search of the best buy website and the Crux air fryer hit all the points. I drove over and bought it. The air fryer is simple to use, and in the box, along with the air fryer, is a manual, the ‘turbo crisper’ (the oil catch tray), and what surprised me was four reusable silicone cupcake baking cups. I washed the silicon cups and the basket before using them for the first time. The Crux air fryer is quiet; It's much quieter than the regular air fryer I use at home, and it does not smell or smoke when run for the first time. The unit beeps on first connected to the outlet. When powered on for the first time, the touch buttons on the panel are a bit fussy but useable, especially since they have no feedback. I had to fumble a bit as I wanted to set the time and temperature without pressing the ‘hamburger’ menu button icon on the left. I had to look at the instructions and realized the eight emoji icons meant something to me, and I needed to press the icon on the left. I found my air fry (the first green emoji on the front) and adjusted the temperature and time to my desired settings. The emoji icon-based menu is quite easy to use and descriptive, but you may want to read the manual. The cupcake icon, the chicken leg, and the french fries icons are self-explained, but the rest took the manual to understand. Once you know what each emoji means, it's relatively simple. I liked that it has a dedicated ‘reheat’ icon and a dedicated ‘air-fry’ icon; honestly, those are probably the only ones I’ll use. Still, it is nice to think we could use some of the other options of ‘bake’ and ‘roast’... even though, in all cases, the baking and roasting are not any different from any other emojis. It's pre-set heat and time. This air fryer is remarkable for its price, size, build quality, and features. I look forward to grilled cheese sandwiches, mini egg bites, and other ‘air-fried’ foods at work. I did test out the silicone cups with some egg bites for the morning; it works rather well. The eggs were easy to extract after cooking. Cook time on the Crux unit matched my bigger air fryer, which I regularly use for making egg bites. I noticed that Crux sells additional silicone trays at best buy. It is nice to see a manufacturer provide something extra in the box, much less availability of other accessories in the retail market. I highly recommend this air fryer if you are looking for a machine for the home, office, or dorm.

Best appliance in my kitchen
Excellent Air Fryer. Nice size and color too. I was so happy with this Air Fryer that I bought one for my office. A must buy. Easy clean up too. I traded my old Air Fryer for this one and no regrets. It’s a must buy. You will not be disappointed. Great price too.

Small but mighty
I was so surprised to say the least. I waited a few months to write this review because I really wanted to test the air fryer out. This machine is small but mighty. It works just as good as the high end name brands. The basket fits 2 medium sized breast to help envision the size. I’ve cooked everything you can possibly air fry and it does not disappoint. Easy to clean and handle, even the beeping noise it makes when the food is completed is pleasant. Very happy with my purchase. Would highly recommend!
