Q: Do I remove small rubbers from the tray before use it?
submitted by Tash - 5 years ago
A: Great question, Tash. We do not recommend removing the silicone parts from the cooking tray. These pieces are used to keep the tray in place whilst in the basket, in addition to allowing for proper air circulation. We hope this helps!
submitted byInstant Brands Support - 5 years agoBrand expertA: Yes. I think thats not supposed to be in the heat.
submitted byNav81 - 5 years agoA: I would not remove them. Those rubber guards are made of silicone, which can withstand very high temperatures. I have a Ninja air fryer and it also has those rubber things attached to the cooking tray. Those guards help to elevate the cooking tray to allow air to circulate beneath the food. It's interesting that those rubber guards are not illustrated in the user manual for the Instant Pot, but are shown in their promotional videos. Since mine were already installed, I left the rubber things on the tray without any problem.
submitted byairbud - 5 years agoA: **Warning** Don't remove silicone tray feet. It is a special design and they are needed to function properly.

submitted byNunz - 5 years agoA: Great question! Although the 6-quart Vortex does contain BPA, all of our products are compliant with health and safety standards. We hope this helps!
submitted byInstant Brands Support - 5 years agoBrand expertA: The "Warning" label in this description clearly states that it may cause health problems from Lead & BPA.

Q: I ran my fryer at least 4x without food to get rid of the plastic taste. When will it go away. I've made 3 items, all taste like plastic.
submitted by Misssly - 5 years ago
A: I've run mine 6 times, cleaned 6 times, cooked a dozen times and it REEKS OF PLASTIC. Food smells like plastic. I hate this thing.
submitted byGma - 4 years agoA: Any 'new appliance' smell should go away after the first couple of uses. If you have any concerns, we recommend reaching out to Instant Brands Customer Care directly, and we will be happy to assist further.

I have had this air fryer for less than two years. This is a kitchen appliance that I rely on heavily. In the middle of me cooking a meal, it stopped working. Being that this is not a cheap kitchen appliance, I am highly disappointed. Additionally, it is difficult to clean.
Disappointed!!!

We loved this air fryer until the handle screw mount was about to break off. Thankfully we recognized it and took it off before a hot pan fell on someone's feet. Moreover the tray feet bubble in heat and change color. Contacted support and they do not even have replacement parts. Very disappointed in the brand
Hard to get replacement parts

I got my air fryer on black Friday several years ago. I use it every day! Makes cooking easy and fast. I never use my oven anymore. However, customer service can improve a bit. I use it so much that the grate/tray inside is looking pretty bad (even with daily proper cleaning) and the silicon feet are disintegrating. I reached out and was told to send a picture of my receipt which I don't have since it's been 4+ years since purchase. After telling them my issues, customer service just sent me directions on how to clean it and said the part isn't currently in stock so I cannot get a new one at this moment. The part isn't even available on their website to purchase so how would I know when it's 'in stock'?Makes me feel like I'm being forced to buy a new one when all I need to a part for it to work perfectly.

Ditch the PTFEs and give customers a safer option. Stainless steel on the outside doesnt really mean anything, it's what's on the inside that matters.

Purchased this in 2020 and still to this day it works perfectly! No rust. We clean it right after use to avoid burn marks. The rubber on the tray have fallen off, we’ve been using the frier without the tray and works just fine! We didn’t think we needed a fryer until we got one and we use it 1-2 times a week. Honestly if I had to buy another one I would buy this one again :)

Bought in 2021 & have used almost daily since. I only use my oven when something doesnt fit in the air fryer. I do hate cleaning the tray but it’s not hard. I use parchment paper so no mess is made. *tip* if having trouble cleaning, use a dishwasher pod and let it soak overnight.

I never thought I would tout an air fryer until now. I have been using this air fryer since late spring and am tickled with it. I doubted the hype, then bought a trusted brand (I have an instant pot!) and there is no turning back. The 6 quart size is right for us. Food cooks evenly and the controls are easy to use.
Ok while it lasted

I used this air fryer almost everyday for almost 2 years. Unfortunately it just stopped working. It was great while it lasted. I really liked the large basket and the screen and dial to do the temp and time. Now I need to start looking for another air fryer. Disappointed that this only lasted 2 years.

I purchased a Vortex air fryer and was quite excited to receive it. Unfortunately, since the first time I used it, it has not stopped smelling horrific like chemicals and burnt plastic. The entire house smells, and I am so scared to eat my food cooked in the Vortex air fryer. I have been trying to contact the company for a refund but I have received no response.

My husband and I bought this from Target in hopes that we could be part of the Air Fryer family. We cleaned it several times prior to using, ran it empty for hours, and yet we still can not get that new air fryer taste out of it.
