Cooking dinner for the whole family can often mean juggling multiple pans, oven trays and different cooking times. But a dual-basket air fryer could make preparing everything from crispy chips to chicken and vegetables a little easier.

The Homcom Dual Zone Air Fryer has dropped to £69.30, down from £76.99, at Yimbly – an online marketplace owned by this publication’s parent company, Reach Plc. Shoppers just need to use the discount code AUTUMN10 at checkout. The air fryer offers shoppers a more affordable way to cook two dishes simultaneously without needing to switch on the oven.

It has a combined 8.5-litre capacity, split between a larger 5.2-litre basket and a smaller 3.3-litre compartment, making it useful for preparing a main dish and side at the same time. Each basket can be controlled separately, with adjustable temperatures ranging from 80°C to 200°C and a timer of up to 60 minutes, giving users flexibility when preparing different meals.

Another option is the Cook’s Essentials Multifunctional Airfryer Oven for £82.92, down from £130, at QVC. This one has dual baskets that offer a total 9.5 litre capacity, and it features 10 preset cooking programs.

A third person wrote: “I purchased this recently and can’t fault it. It works perfectly, cooks in both sections equally as good, food comes out evenly cooked and tasty, and the air fryer doesn’t take up too much room on my counter, very happy.”

Some people disagreed, as one person said: “Really pleased with this air fryer. Runs quietly, cooks very well. Not too bad to clean, but the tray at the bottom could be a bit less fiddly as it holds the grease. Touch controls are decent, but you have to run through the options rather than just choose the one you want. But overall, very pleased with it.”

The Homcom Dual Zone Air Fryer is available from Yimbly.
