The search for the most convenient ways to cook never seems to end, but it finally might with the VersaZone air fryer, an Instant Pot creation that offers a dual basket and eight cooking functions — and it’s on sale for nearly 30% off, right now at Amazon.
This 9-quart capacity air fryer can broil, reheat, bake and roast all your foods to golden perfection, but most importantly, it can fry food to crispy bliss with significantly less cooking oil compared to traditional frying methods, and also in less time.
Part of what makes the VersaZone extra special when positioned against other models is its dual basket interior, which actually allows users to set two separate cooking times and programs at once. And thanks to what the brand calls “SyncFinish,” you can program the baskets to finish at the same time so your entire meal is ready to eat at once. No more waiting for one item to finish cooking, while the other food gets cold.
True to most of Instant Pot’s air fryers, you know you’ll be getting fast preheating times, multiple one-touch cooking programs and super easy clean up thanks to the dishwasher-safe interior components that also happen to be non-stick.
This is a limited time deal so don’t hesitate too long on this perfect mealtime purchase that reviewers have been calling their “favorite gadget of all time” and “a game-changer for anyone looking to enjoy delicious, healthier meals with ease.”

“I bought this on Prime Day and have used it nearly every day since. It meets every (high) expectation I had for it. I love all natural hot dogs and mercy there is no better way to cook a hot dog. Air fry @ 400 for 6 minutes and they’re perfect. Tater tots are perfection. I like crunchy tater tots and this does that with an ease my big over can’t even dream of. Fish is awesome as well. Frozen Bubba burgers or handmade, also perfect. I’m a gadget girl and this is by far my favorite gadget of all time.
Two minor complaints: the beep function for add and turn food is impossible for my husband to hear so if he uses it he has to stand there and watch it. It also does get quite warm behind the unit, next to my backsplash. I have it pulled out and at an angle to allow more air circulation back there. It probably isn’t a problem with conventionally set tile but I did my mother of pearl mosaic with Musselbound tile adhesive mat and am not confident in its ability to withstand the heat. Pulling it forward on the counter solved the problem.
I 1,000% recommend this unit and would absolutely buy it again once this one wears out.” — Karen S“I cook for one and this is an awesome replacement for both my toaster oven and my air fryer (love replacing two counter appliances with only one) I also love the rotisserie feature, but it’s a little tricky to get the hang of. I use it for a (carefully skewered) cornish hen, also pork tenderloins work well too. It doesn’t carry a big load, but like I said, cooking for one it is perfect. It cooks two trays of different foods at the same time well too. I almost never turn on my full sized oven anymore, and this is a breeze to keep clean too. It was a great price on Black Friday. Very happy with this one.” — BevS
