Emeril Lagasse Pressure AirFryer 8 QT vs Emeril Lagasse French Door 360 Air Fryer

These are two different appliances wearing the Emeril name. The Pressure AirFryer 70172 is a true multi-cooker: pressure cooking, steaming, air frying and slow cooking in an 8-quart nonstick pot with three lids. The French Door 360 is a countertop oven-style air fryer with two glass doors, a 500°F ceiling and 10 presets, and owners say it can replace a toaster oven. Buy the 70172 if you want pressure cooking and one-pot meals; buy the 360 if you want oven-style baking, roasting and air frying with a door you open, and you have the counter space for a 16.9-inch-deep unit.

• Choose the Emeril Lagasse Pressure AirFryer 70172 if you want pressure cooking, steaming and air frying in one 8-quart pot and you value a smaller footprint over oven-style cooking.
• Choose the Emeril Lagasse French Door 360 if you mainly bake, roast and air fry, want a 500°F top temperature and two glass doors, and can spare a large patch of counter.
