A single small basket takes a lot of batches to feed four people. Families usually do better with an air fryer of around 7 litres or more, and a dual-drawer model lets you cook two foods at once, such as chips in one and chicken in the other.

We picked the best-reviewed large air fryers on Amazon UK, judging by rating, number of reviews and price. Capacities are as stated in each listing. We haven't tested them ourselves. This comparison is based on the Amazon listings and customer ratings, so check the latest price and details before you buy.

Before you buy: bigger air fryers take up more worktop space, so measure the spot first.

Short answer: For a family, look for a dual-drawer air fryer of 7 litres or more. The Ninja Foodi 7.6L has the most reviews by far, the Tefal Easy Fry Mega 7.5L is the cheaper well-rated option, and the Ninja Foodi MAX 9.5L is the biggest.
