For busy individuals and families seeking a healthier, more energy-efficient way to cook, the Olsen & Smith 11L Vertical Dual Stack Air Fryer offers unparalleled versatility and convenience. Its innovative space-saving vertical design, coupled with dual independent cooking zones, allows you to prepare two distinct meals simultaneously without flavor crossover, all while reducing oil usage by up to 90% and energy consumption by up to 50% compared to a standard oven. While its large 11L capacity is excellent for meal prepping, its physical footprint (H41.1cm x W25cm x D46.6cm) still requires adequate counter space.

The Olsen & Smith 11L Vertical Dual Stack Air Fryer excels at making everyday cooking both efficient and enjoyable. Its 1700W power ensures rapid heating and consistent cooking performance across its wide temperature range of 50-200℃.
Family Meals: Easily prepare a full meal by cooking crispy chicken drumsticks in one 5.5L basket while simultaneously roasting vegetables like broccoli or potatoes in the other, all finishing at the same time using the Sync function.
Healthier Snacking: Use the presets for perfectly golden, low-oil chips or experiment with the dehydrate function to make your own healthy fruit crisps.
Weekday Dinners: Quickly air fry fish fillets or steaks to perfection, then use the Match function if you're cooking larger quantities, ensuring consistent results across both zones.
Baking: Beyond savory dishes, the cake preset allows you to bake small desserts, expanding your culinary repertoire right on your countertop.
Monitoring Progress: The integrated viewing windows with internal lights are particularly useful. You can visually check the browning of your food without stopping the cooking cycle, which helps maintain consistent temperatures and prevents under or overcooking.
Energy-Conscious Cooking: For smaller portions that would typically require preheating a large oven, this air fryer offers a significant energy saving, making it ideal for daily use and reducing household utility costs. Its quick heat-up time also saves you time in the kitchen.
Unpack: Carefully remove all packaging materials, including any protective film or inserts from inside the baskets.
First Clean: Before first use, wash the removable cooking baskets and crisping plates in warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely. Wipe the interior and exterior of the main unit with a damp cloth.
Placement: Place the air fryer on a stable, heat-resistant, and level surface, ensuring there is adequate ventilation around the unit. Keep it away from walls or other appliances to allow proper airflow.
Power Connection: Plug the 1m power cable into a grounded electrical outlet. The unit operates at 1700W.
First Run (Optional): For the very first use, some users prefer to run the air fryer empty for about 10-15 minutes at a medium temperature (e.g., 180℃) to burn off any manufacturing odors. Ensure good ventilation during this step.
Power: Requires a standard household electrical outlet (220-240V). Its 1700W power rating ensures efficient operation.
Space: Designed for countertop use. While vertically optimized, ensure you have sufficient height clearance (H41.1cm) and width/depth (W25cm x D46.6cm) on your counter.
Cleaning Baskets & Plates: Always allow the baskets and crisping plates to cool completely before cleaning. Wash them with warm water, a mild dish soap, and a non-abrasive sponge. The non-stick coating makes cleaning easy. Avoid harsh chemicals or metallic scourers.
Cleaning the Main Unit: Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Never immerse the main unit in water or any other liquid. For the interior, after cooling, gently wipe down any visible food residue from the heating element area, ensuring the unit is unplugged.
Storage: Store the air fryer in a dry place when not in use. Ensure all parts are clean and dry before storing.
Crisping Plates: Ensure the crisping plates are correctly inserted into the bottom of the baskets before cooking to promote even air circulation and crisping.
