5 Air Fryers with Viewing Windows
Here are some choices for the the home cooks that need to see how the food is cooking:
OOKAS Air Fryer
The Ookas Airfryer is a very cozy cute airfryer with a capacity for 1-2 servings. Add this kitchen appliance to your cozy lonesome living. It is a basket type and is made of full glass.
This is a good choice for beginner air fryer cooks because you can see the cooking process in the air fryer through the glass basket.
Scientifically thinking, I would say a glass basket would not get as hot as an aluminum basket if you are looking for that solid crisp. I would recommend for general cooking but not for the best air fryer french fries. I would not recommend for clumsy adults or to be used by children. The glass is made durable but glass is glass, glass can shatter.
Aesthetic wise, it would be a functional and adorable addition to a cute and cozy kitchen in a dorm or small condo unit. It measures tall at 45.0cm. It takes little counter space measuring equally wide and deep at 23.0cm.
ICON Air Fryer
The Icon Air fryer comes in black or white and is an oven door with display window type air fryer. It comes with an aluminum metal mesh tray basket, aluminum drip pan or baking tray and grill rack. You can use all 3 trays to cook or reheat food at multi levels.
It measures a 37.0cm tall, 30.0cm wide and 29.0cm deep. It will take up more counterspace than the Ookas Airfryer. It does offer more servings per cook for 2-3 persons.
You can peer through a glass window to check on the food cooking and see the cooking process in the air fryer. You do not have to keep opening the hatch. It gets entertaining just to watch your cooking caramelize gracefully. You can stop the cooking at that right doneness.
The cooking appliance interior is aluminum-lined like a conventional oven. The cooking temperature max hotter than a glass basket.
Keep an eye on that top rack! The top rack is the hottest level for the tray level and can easily char your food when you are not keeping an eye on your air fryer cooking. To avoid air fryer food fail, try cooking first on the second level.

AIODIY Air Fryer
The Aiodiy air fryer has quite the following with the basket type original models in color red, green, white & black. The basket type air fryers have smaller capacities at 8L ( good for 2-3 servings) and 4.5L ( good for 1-2 servings).
This brand has come out with an oven door window type model in white for a large 15 liter capacity ( good for 4-6 servings). It actually looks the same as the ICON Air fryer but bigger! This a bigger option for an air fryer with a glass window to see the cooking process in the air fryer.

LEACCO Air Fryer
The LECCO brand has an array of see through air fryers that have a variety of colors and cooking capacities. They have both basket types with window and hinged window / multi level type air fryers.
On Lazada, this brand is quite popular with their basket type with over 600 ratings. The designs are sleek and would just take enough room on a condo kitchen counter.
The basket types of this brand has glass windows to see the cooking process in the air fryer.
The multi level, oven door hinged type air fryers take up more space. Check out the 10L green one!
Baumann Multi Air Fryer XR with Rotisserie
This is the air fryer I have personally used for more than a year. It has a cooking capacity for 4-5 adult servings. I use this to cook and reheat food to a crisp for my family.
I have the rolling cage add on and I literally just throw in some chicken nuggets coated with oil in and done in 10mins at 150 degree Celsius.
Are you an “eyeball it” type of cook and have to see what’s going on inside and oven? This air fryer has this biggest cooking display window to see the cooking process and what is happening inside the air fryer.
It’s the monster of air fryers measuring at 32 cm deep x35 cm wide x37 cm high. It does take a lot of space so before you purchase this air fryer, make sure to find counter space for it!
I actually have this on a metal shelf out on my kitchen balcony so the whole house won’t smell like my air fryer fried chicken.
Among all the air fryers mentioned, this one is tried and tested by me and it can cook up to 85 mins long! It is heavy duty and is my most used kitchen device that I may not even touch my kitchen stove at times.
My family loves crisping up left over lechon in the air fryer. On my lazy days I cook up strips of bacon and Spam. I do not need to watch over cooking like you do at the stove. It beeps loudly when it is done.
If you have a Baumann Multi Level Air Fryer XR with Rotisserie and an Instant Pot, I would say, that’s all you could need to cook in a small space such as a condo or dorm.

This is really like a first generation kitchen robot with the rotisserie rods and Baumann Multi Air Fryer XR Rolling Cage.
