I love the design and preset functions BUT no matter what I do I can’t get the burnt plastic smell out! It makes all the food cooked inside it taste like burnt plastic. 🙁 I’ve tried everything I could that was on google but sadly none of it worked.

I really am a fan of air fryers. As you knnow these things have do for the kitchen , what the toaster oven did to the microwave and what the miicrowave did to the sauce pan for reheating food. I love the way I’m able to cook a healthier yet very delicuos meal in less time and with much less clean-up. I swear, I don’t miss baking hot wings…much. But I’ve never been one to make whole chickens until I found the air fryer. The Crux Marshmellow is going to easily replace my older and still very capable air fryer. Just because it’s larger, but at the same time, more space saving. That makes a heck of difference when you’ve got a small kitchen space. Where as many air fryers come with a small recipe booklets, I was surprised to see that the Marshmellow only comes with a user guide. However, it does have this QR code symbol that will give you access to the Crux website. And in there you’ll find a couple recipes. Nothing I wass particularly excited about, so I chose to go with some of my own. And oh boy, does this thing get ta cooking. Remembering that my other air fryers are mainly 6 Qts. 8 Qts feeds a small crew. I love the light that allows me to see the the food cooking and the baking pan is super easy to clean after cooking. This will make a great gift for someone who already has an air fryer. I love this thing.

I love air fryers they are extremely useful especially with a family of 6. We have had several different ones I even had one with split compartments and while they all worked well they all had one issue they were extremely loud. Now this air fryer is not quiet but it’s is possibly the quietest air fryer I have ever used. It works great cooks food quickly it does kick out a bit more heat than the other air fryers but the unit does not feel too hot overall.
I love the fact that it comes with an extra silicon basket. If you don’t have one for your air fryer get one they are extremely helpful and make it super easy to clean and keep your air fryer from becoming a greasy mess.
I was also surprised that is was branded as a marshmello one as the box had his face all over it I was expecting the air fryer to look like him but to my surprised the only thing to really let you k own it’s branded is the memory icon in the screen looks like his head besides that you would never know.
Overall this air fryer is great is does a great job. Cooking food is very quiet for an air fryer and overall is great.

The Sensio Marshmello is a large air fryer that doesn’t take too much space and has a window so you can watch things while they’re being heated!
Design
It looks pretty much like a standard air fryer. There are touch button below the screen. The screen is very easy to see and has color light-up icons for the different cook modes. There are eight cook modes including “Air Fry”, “Bake”, and “Custom”. There are two buttons to change the cook time and two buttons to change the temperature – making it very simple to use. You do need to select your mode first with the mode button and it toggles through all either cook modes. I’m not sure I love having an eight way toggle that goes one direction but it’s easy to see what you’re on and it works fine. I’m impressed with the size of it. It takes less counter space than I expected for an 8QT Air Fryer.
Features
Having so much room in there really opens of the possibilities of what you could make. Four burgers would fit, though I didn’t get to try that yet. And even if your not making lots of items it’s nice to have more room to spread out. The included silicone baking pan is also a great idea! It’s so cool to have something to contain messy food. I was glad to see a bake mode. It does seem to us a fan for the bake mode but I guess just at a lower speed or it uses less fans. My favorite feature by far is the window and the light! It has a window so you can watch what’s in it and see how things are getting done as it heats! There is also a light button that turns on a light for 10 seconds or so at a time and lights up the inside very well, making it easy to see your food – as long as you’re not using the silicone baking pan, in which case you can’t see your food. They have warnings about the outside getting hot to the touch but so far, even when heating things for 20+ minutes, the outside never got hot enough to burn me and the top just gets a little warm. I think it’s very well designed to handle the heat.
Results
The results are excellent! I’ve made sweet potato French fries, mini pizza’s, chicken nuggets, breakfast Taquitos, mini pizza nuggets, and even a small cake in the silicon baking pan. Next time I make a cake I’ll keep it in longer but it was good. The items were heated very evenly and I was able to get nice even browning of items I wanted more crunchy. I was a little concerned that a max temperature of 400 degrees wasn’t very high but it does a great job with everything I throw at it.
Cleaning
There are no slots on the sides of the basket and that makes it easier to clean for me. Both the basket and the tray are also dishwasher safe.
Summary
There is no stop to toss/flip reminder but I don’t mind doing that manually. The 400 degree temperature limit doesn’t bother me at all. For me, those are very minor and the fact that it has a window and a light is huge!!! The results are great and with the window it’s easier for me to get the results I want and do so more consistently. I have two pictures attached that show the front panel and the window with a mini pizza inside.
