As people are finding less time to cook, air fryers are growing in popularity. In fact, according to a Mintel consumer survey, 21 percent of consumers intend to purchase an air fryer in the next 12 months. While traditional air fryers are convenient, most of them are only capable of cooking one dish at a time, and larger dual-basket models are often bulky and oversized. Midea is looking to improve on this with the announcement of the Midea 11QT Two-Zone Air Fryer Oven.
TWO-ZONE COOKING & SYNC FINISH
The Midea 11QT Two-Zone Air Fryer Oven offers the capability to prepare two fully independent meals, or a meal and a side dish, simultaneously. The top portion of the 11QT Two-Zone Air Fryer Oven has a 6qt Air frying basket while the bottom portion is a 5qt traditional toaster oven. When making an entire meal in both cooking areas at the same time, use the Sync Finish feature to automatically align the cooking times of both zones so all food is finished at precisely the same time. No matter the settings, time or temperature required, this feature is designed to make cooking separate dishes, convenient and seamless.
COOK MORE WITH LESS COUNTER SPACE
The air fryer basket’s XXL 6QT capacity offers enough space to cook a whole 6-lb chicken along with the oven’s 5QT capacity providing room to prepare a 9” pizza, while the space-saving vertical alignment only occupies 12.5 in. of counter space to maintain room for all other kitchen activities. The Midea Air Fryer Oven uses Rapid Air Circulation technology to provide fast and consistent cooking at up to 450 degrees in both the top air fryer basket and bottom oven. Packed with a variety of unique features, the Midea 11QT Two-Zone Air Fryer takes up about two-thirds as much counter space compared to having both a traditional single-basket air fryer and a toaster oven.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
The Midea 11QT Two-Zone Air Fryer Oven is designed to cover all cooking needs in one small appliance. With see-through windows, keep an eye on cooking progress in both zones without opening the door. It offers a 10-in-1 slate of cooking programs including air fry, bake, grill, roast and more. The air fryer also possesses Wi-Fi capabilities through the MSmartHome app, allowing users to activate voice control with Alexa or Google Assistant, receive notifications and utilize all the air fryer’s features remotely. Through the MSmartHome app, users will also have access to 50+ pre-programmed smart recipes to remove any uncertainties around time and temperature to cook the perfect meal. The air fryer basket, oven grill tray and oven crisper plate are made with 100% food grade and high-temperature resistant materials, and designed with a non-stick coating to make cleaning a breeze.
The Midea 11QT Two-Zone Air Fryer Oven is available now exclusively at Costco.com, and will be available at an expanded list of retailers in September. For more information on the Midea 11QT Two-Zone Air Fryer Oven or the company’s full range of home appliances, please visit Midea.com/us.
