  • Our take on the Mainstays 8 qt Air Fryer

    The Mainstays 8 qt Air Fryer is a large-capacity basket-style air fryer sold at Walmart. Its 8-quart basket holds enough for a whole chicken or food for a family of four to six, which puts it well above the common 4- to 6-quart models. It tops out at 399°F, so it roasts and crisps but cannot sear like fryers that reach 450°F. Controls are simple dials rather than a digital display with presets, so it suits people who want a big, basic basket and don't need app control or fancy programs.

    Questions and answers

    How much food does the 8-quart basket hold?
    It holds roughly 8 quarts, enough for a whole chicken or food for four to six people. That is about double a typical 4-quart basket.
    Does it have presets or a digital display?
    No. It uses dial controls for temperature and time, with no digital display or one-touch presets.
    What is the maximum temperature?
    399°F. That is fine for roasting and crisping, but it will not sear as hard as fryers that reach 450°F.
    Is the basket dishwasher safe?
    The basket and crisper plate are removable for washing. Check the manual before putting them in a dishwasher, since nonstick coatings vary.
    How does it compare with a 6-quart air fryer?
    It holds more, so it suits larger families and whole chickens better. In return it takes up more counter space and can cook less evenly when packed full.
    What comes in the box?
    The air fryer unit with its basket and crisper plate. Accessories and recipe books are not included.
    Where is the Mainstays 8 qt Air Fryer cheapest?
    At Walmart, for $49.00, as of our latest check.
