Top selling air fryer on Amazon.
- 1500W
- RapidAir technology
- Digital touchscreen
- 13 cooking options
- 9 preset functions
Edit: Ended up going instead for a 7L 1600W HealthyChoice one with glass window and dishwasher safe basket for the same price at Amazon.
Probably.
I sorted that problem using silicon baskets and a stainless steel grill stand, so the food doesn't rest on the PFAS.
great idea, i do the same. i also use the silicone mats and paper liners too.
JSYK, that nonstick finish on paper liners are PFAS too 😉
Yes, silicone is chemically stable under heat — that’s one of its key advantages. Specifically:
Thermal stability range: Most silicones (especially polydimethylsiloxane, PDMS) remain stable from -50°C to around 200–250°C. Some high-temperature formulations can tolerate up to 300°C intermittently.
Chemical structure: Its Si–O backbone is more thermally stable than the C–C backbone of organic polymers, meaning it doesn’t break down as easily when heated.
Oxidation and degradation: While silicone resists heat well, at very high temperatures in air, it can eventually oxidize and form a silica-like residue. In inert atmospheres (e.g. nitrogen), it lasts even longer.
Bottom line: silicone is one of the most heat-resistant flexible materials available, which is why it’s used in things like bakeware, automotive gaskets, and aerospace insulation.

@wisdomtooth: can you confirm this comment doesnt have pfas. did i just eat pfas by typing on my plastic keyboard then scratching my nose?
@wisdomtooth: Fark - I bought a stack of those thinking I was avoiding the non stick …. probably worse quality than the surface itself
Could you please share links to the baskets and stands that you got? TIA!
The baskets I bought on clearance from Catch, but Kmart has some for $5.50.
The stands I got from AliEx.
$76 not bad
Where?
Stack everyday rewards monthly big w discount and 5% off big w gift card
Exactly what I did :)
cue PFAS debate…
though i do wish there was a semi affordable stainless steel option
The one you ended up bought, HealthyChoice, the description states
Non-Stick Coating: The cooking basket and grill insert feature a non-stick coating for easy cooking and cleaning
Is that also PFAS?
Im in the market for air fryer and looking for some healthy option
Does the nonstick coating on the basket have PFAS and degrade if you put it in the dishwasher?
