Quick verdict
For a family, the 8-litre Atma is the best buy: plenty of capacity, touch control and an Argentine brand with service, at a reasonable price. Want to spend the least? The 7-litre Novohome. Want the most complete one, with oven and rotisserie functions? The 10-litre Suono.
What to look for before buying
- Capacity: 7 litres and up — For 3-4 people, 5-6 litres is already tight; 7 to 8 litres cooks comfortably for a family. 10 to 12 litres fits a whole chicken or cooks for many, in exchange for more counter space.
- Power (watts) — More watts = heats faster and browns better. At this size, 1400 to 1800 W is normal; the higher-power ones do better with big loads.
- Digital vs analog panel — A digital touch panel brings preset programs and precise temperature control; the analog (dial) one is simpler and cheaper. For family use, digital is usually worth it.
- Extra functions — The largest ones tend to be oven-style: they add rotisserie, dehydrate or reheat. Nice if you cook varied meals, but don't pay for functions you won't use.
- Brand and service — In large air fryers the market is mostly budget brands. Atma is the most established with local service; with smaller brands, check the warranty carefully.

Aitech · 10 litres · 1400W · 10 modes

A large air fryer changes what you use it for: you stop cooking “for one” and start solving dinner for the whole family — or even a whole chicken — without turning on the oven. But “more litres” isn’t free: they take up more space and you don’t always need that much. This is the list of the best-selling 7-to-12-litre models, and how to pick the one that fits your home.
How many litres?
It’s the decision that matters most:
- 7 to 8 litres — the sweet spot for a family of 3 or 4. You cook comfortably without it eating half the counter.
- 10 to 12 litres — for 5 people or more, big batches or a whole chicken. In exchange, they’re noticeably bigger: measure the space before buying.
If you’re 1 or 2 people, a large one means paying and taking up too much — look instead at the general air fryer guide, which covers the small and mid sizes.
Basket-style vs oven-style
The largest ones here (Suono, Maverick) tend to be oven-style: a door with a window, trays and, on some, a rotisserie function. They cook more varied meals than the classic basket type, but they’re bulkier. If you’re torn between a large air fryer and simply an electric oven, we compare them in air fryer vs electric oven.

Frequently asked
How many litres do I need?
As a reference: for 1-2 people, 4-6 litres is enough; for a family of 3-4, 7-8 litres is comfortable; if you cook for many or want a whole chicken, 10-12 litres. Note that the largest ones take up a lot of counter space: measure before buying.
Is a 10-12 litre one worth it?
If you regularly cook for 5 or more, or want a whole chicken and big batches, yes. For 3-4 people, 7-8 litres is plenty and saves kitchen space. Buying 12 litres to use 4 means paying and taking up too much room.
Digital or analog?
The digital touch one gives preset programs and precise temperature, handy day to day. The analog (dial) one is simpler and cheaper, and works fine for the basics. For a family fryer you'll use a lot, digital usually pays off.
Are the budget brands reliable?
They're fine for normal use. The difference is the backing: if it fails, a small brand's service can get complicated. So, at similar prices, a brand with local service like Atma gives more peace of mind.
