Two years later, the $175 Vortex air fryer oven grill is hated by the husband for its smell and cannot be gotten completely clean, so they want to switch to a basket model.

Just bought a Vortex Plus with rotisserie and window that reeks of plastic whenever run, even after many empty burn-offs, outside runs and vinegar tricks over a couple of weeks. Disappointed.
Would not recommend: the pans gave off a terrible odor until seasoned about four times, the display stopped working, and the buttons now fail half the time. Only worth it for the rotisserie.
Their Vortex Plus smelled caustic and noxious even after hours of airing out, and it did not go away.
