Found the Duo Crisp's air fryer lid inconvenient with hot food lifted from a deep basket and ended up buying a stand-alone air fryer.
After 6-7 uses of the Duo Crisp air fryer basket things stuck so badly cleanup was frustrating; a roughly 20 minute Steam cycle finally let a sink sprayer remove everything.
Has an 8 qt Duo Crisp and recommends no smaller size, but says it is not nonstick and cleaning is a pain without perforated parchment liners.
