Bestsellers for Air Fryers
If you own an air fryer, it's important to keep it clean and well-maintained to ensure that it continues to function properly. For many air fryers, the basket are likely dishwasher safe. For example, the Instant Vortex 4-in-1, 2-QT Mini Air Fryer has undergone further testing since the manuals were printed, and it has been determined that the air fryer basket is dishwasher safe! However, other models may not be safe for dishwasher use.
To make sure the basket for your air fryer is dishwasher safe:
- Check your owner's manual: Before putting your air fryer in the dishwasher, consult your owner's manual to see if this is an approved method of cleaning.
- Determine what parts are dishwasher safe: Even if your air fryer can be cleaned in a dishwasher, some parts may need to be hand washed.
- Disassemble and clean any removable parts: Remove any removable parts from your air fryer before placing them in the dishwasher. This includes baskets or trays.
- Load items into the dishwasher carefully: Ensure that all pieces are securely placed within the racks of your dishwasher so they don't get damaged during cleaning.
- Run a normal cycle on a low heat setting with no drying function: Avoid using high heat settings or drying functions which might damage plastic components of your appliance.
If you're unsure about whether or not you can put certain parts of your air fryer in the dishwasher, err on the side of caution and wash them by hand instead.
Overall, while some models may allow for dishwashing of certain components like baskets and trays (like with Instant Vortex 4-in-1), each model will differ so refer back to its instruction manual before doing so!
