Big, heavy, and needs lots of space to store away. Pricey for a grill marker but remember it can do more than just grill.

All of the baskets don't fit inside the storage. Takes up a lot of counter space. The air fryer is very noisy. There is not a built-in plug hole for a temperature probe in this particular model.
