Move over, Instant Pot, and make way for the kitchen hero of the year: the almighty Air Fryer. To say this countertop appliance is changing lives is putting it mildly — and thanks to Walmart’s amazing Black Friday deals, you can have your very own for a pittance.
The Farberware Air Fryer is nearly half off for Black Friday — just $50 starting right now.
The greatest kitchen invention since the coffee maker
So what’s an air fryer, anyway? Well, if a convection oven and a deep fryer had a baby — and that baby went to culinary and nutrition school and could therefore offer up way healthier, crispier, juicier versions of your favorite fried foods — that would be the air fryer.
Specifically the Farberware Air Fryer—which, did we mention, is $49 off for Black Friday? This baby does all of the above and then some. It can bake potatoes. It can roast meat. It can reheat food without drying it out. And it does its work fast and with minimal cleanup required.
Dinner is fun again
Like a deep fryer, the Farberware Air Fryer fries to perfection — so everything from chicken tenders to fish fillets to Brussels sprouts to fries comes out like something from an amazing restaurant. Expect compliments from the family—and requests for repeat performances.
It’s all good, because the food you make in an air fryer is way lighter and healthier than the traditional fried version of the same dishes. Where deep frying requires a vat of oil to deliver crispiness, the Farberware Air Fryer uses just a scant couple of tablespoons. The result? All the foods you love with way fewer calories.
It even bakes biscuits!
You don’t need to be a fan of fried foods to have your life changed by the Farberware Air Fryer. It can roast veggies, and leans meats like chicken breasts and pork chops—with a tiny bit of oil, or no oil at all if you prefer. And because of the unique way it operates, it can even bake.
How exactly does it work? Instead of swirling heat around a big space, like a convection oven would, the air fryer blows hot air directly onto food—it’s fast, energy-efficient, and foolproof (as in, it cooks evenly every time). And it’s extremely versatile; believe it or not, the Farberware Air Fryer even makes light, delicious biscuits and doughnuts.
Once you go air fryer, you never go back
We’re not just blowing hot air here. More than 1290 Walmart customers are in love with their Farberware 3.2 Quart Air Fryer and are singing its praises to the moon and back.
“I have precious little counter space in my little kitchen, but this has a permanent home!” one bragged. “I absolutely adore this thing. Best thing I've gotten since I got the Ninja 3 in 1 cooker....Chicken wings in the fryer are awesome. You can also make some awesome brats or dogs in it and get a nice crispy crunch to the skins. I've done a few roasted veggies that are awesome.”
“LOVE this air fryer and what a great value!” one shopper shared. “Crisps food much quicker than an oven can, with little to no oil! Much healthier eating... Cook meat, veggies... Even desserts!”
Another suggested looking around for even more recipes:
“We love this air fryer. We've made frozen fries, tots, chicken, fish. The basket removes easily from bottom tray so cleaning is very easy on both. Comes with small booklet but we've found lots of information on YouTube. We also have a very small kitchen so it takes up very little room, and light enough to move.”
For versatility, health, efficiency—and renewed excitement in the kitchen—there’s nothing like this Farberware Air Fryer. Grab one before they’re all gone, and wish yourself a happy (early) Black Friday with a gift your whole family will thank you for (in hugs).
