One of the main arguments against buying an air fryer is its bulky size, especially if you have a small kitchen. Most people in this situation will give up on buying this appliance, but if you’re not one of them, here are the three easiest ways to find room for your air fryer.

Smaller Model

The best way to fit an air fryer into your tiny kitchen is pretty obvious—find the smallest model you can find. Keep in mind that you’ll need to fry food in several batches if your air fryer is too small and that it’s only effective if you’re making food for one or two people.

Basket Size

Another thing you should pay attention to when buying an air fryer isn’t the size of the entire appliance, but also the size of its basket. If you’re considering buying a bigger air fryer so you can prepare more food, keep in mind that basket size plays a crucial role here, and that big air fryers don’t always necessarily fit more food.

Counter and Cabinet Space

Think twice before buying an air fryer if you don’t have enough counter space in your small kitchen. You can still store it on your shelves or inside cabinets if there’s room, but once you remove your air fryer from the counter, it’s more likely you’ll forget about it and use it less regularly.
