Features: 21 Cooking Presets
The oven is equipped with Turbo Maxx Technology, which simply refers to the heating elements and fan that create hot circulated air that makes all air fryers and convection ovens work. Its got 1700 watts of power to help the oven heat quickly, the temperature can be set from 80 to 500 degrees, and the time from one to 90 minutesbut the exact range depends on which cooking preset you select.
There are 21 cooking presets: air fry, chicken, fish, ribs, shrimp, steak, wings, bacon, eggs, corn, fries, vegetables, defrost, reheat, bake, broil, pastry, pizza, proof, roast, and toast. Fourteen presets are air fry mode and seven are oven mode. Although the manual claims this oven can be used to dehydrate, the maximum time is capped at 90 minutes, and dehydrating usually takes several hours.
There are nine accessories, including an air frying basket, baking pan, rack, crumb tray, bacon tray, two in one reversible steak and dehydration tray, rotisserie spit, rack handle, and rotisserie handle. The bacon tray has a wavy designed to keep bacon out of draining grease as it cooks.
One nice feature is that the rack, crisper tray, steak pan, bacon tray, and baking sheet can all be stored inside the oven, but youll have to remove them each time you use it, which could get tiresome. Youll also have to store the rotisserie spit, handle, and tray handle elsewhere.
Kalorik Digital Maxx Air Fryer Oven Vs Emeril Lagasse Power Air Fryer 360
Emeril Lagasses Power AirFryer 360 is an oven style air fryer thats more expensive at around $300. Both are designed of stainless steel with digital displays, but the overall shape of Power Air Fryer 360 is bigger and reminiscent of a large toaster oven, which may be too large for some kitchens and can be difficult to store.
The Power Air Fryer 360 has fewer accessoriesit comes with a crisper basket, rack, baking pan, crumb/drip tray, and rotisserie spit. It basically offers the same heating functions as the Kalorik, with cooking presets for air fry, toast, bagel, pizza, bake, roast, broil, rotisserie, slow cook, reheat, dehydrate, and warm. In our research, the Kalorik operates quieter than the Air Fryer 360, but the 360 heats more evenly, feels more durable with smoother controls, and its more intuitive to set cooking time and temperature.
You can probably skip this model.
If you want to invest in an oven-style air fryer, we think there are other models worth checking out that offer superior heating and a better build than the Kalorik 26-Quart Digital MAXX Air Fryer Oven.
Design: Some Major Flaws
Some appliances you just know are well built from the way they feel the second you take them out of the box. The Kalorik air fryer oven isnt one of those. The box felt pretty heavy, so we thought this air fryer would be rock solid. We were bummed to find some scuffs on the stainless steel exterior right out of the box. The overall metal construction feels thin, flimsy, and lesser quality than other models weve reviewed.
The shape is box-like and on the heavy side weighing about 17 pounds. It fit beneath our cabinets with a few inches to spare. One thing to keep in mind about air fryer ovens is that they take up a lot of space but the actual cooking trays are small. Unless you purchase additional trays, youre giving up a lot of counter space to cook only one small tray of food at a time.
The oven has single-handed automatic open glass French doors. We noticed the doors were hung unevenly and the open/close mechanism and magnetic closure felt wobbly and weak, making us wonder how this feature will stand up to heavy use. The doors dont extend past the sides of the oven so its a tight fit to squeeze the cooking trays between them. We ended up knocking into the doors every time we used it.

Cleaning: Accessories Are Dishwasher Safe
Cleaning might be the only aspect of using this air fryer oven that we didnt have any issues with. All the accessories with the exception of the crumb tray are dishwasher safe.
Expect the ovens interior to get pretty greasy if you air fry wings or roast a whole chicken. The manual recommends cleaning the interior and glass doors with a cloth dipped in soapy water, but in our experience, its hard to remove grease and food drips this way. This problem isnt unique to the Kalorik, thoughwe found this kind of clean-up to be tough with other oven style air fryers as well.
Is The Maxx Oven Easy To Clean
You bet! Its recommended that you clean the MAXX after each use to prevent the accumulation of grease and minimize unpleasant smells. Just be sure to avoid using metal kitchen utensils and abrasive cleaning products, as this could potentially damage its non-stick coating. Instead, clean the appliance with a damp paper towel or cloth once it is completely cool and unplugged.
Whether you want to enjoy crispy fries, rotisserie chicken, succulent steaks, or roasted vegetables, the Kalorik MAXX Digital Air Fryer Oven does it all. Shop Kohls today!

An Overview On Air Fryer Ovens
Air fryers, also known as convection ovens, cook food by circulating air around the ingredients, creating a more even, faster cooking process. The technology also crisps up the outside more than conventional ovens, making it a better cooking style for foods like French fries.
The popularity of air fryers in recent years has led many toaster oven manufacturers to offer all-in-one units. These devices simply use convection cooking when you choose the air fryer option, but they can also serve as a rotisserie or small oven. That means you can roast chicken, cook frozen foods and crisp up vegetables and meats, all using the same kitchen gadget.
But there is a benefit to choosing a dedicated air fryer if thats the only thing youll be using it to do. An oven designed to fry, roast, bake and more will typically be larger than if you have one that simply has a basket for frying. These units also will sometimes come with more dedicated accessories than youd get if you purchased an oven that offers convection capabilities, although you may be able to buy whatever you need separately.
Space is always a consideration with cooking gadgets. You likely have limited countertop room, so you may want to store your air fryer oven under the cabinet between uses. Whichever option youll choose, check to make sure you choose an air fryer that will squeeze into the space youve made for it.
