We’ve hit August (insert that one Tuck Everlasting quote about August), which means it’s way too hot to use the oven. However, the heat doesn’t stop any cravings for french fries, dinosaur nuggets, and mozzarella sticks. Counter space is also an issue—whether you’re an adult in a studio apartment or buying for a college kid who doesn’t have a kitchen. Solve your cooking dilemma without sacrificing space with this Ninja mini air fryer, on sale for 50% off on Amazon.

Ninja AF080 Mini Air Fryer $39.99 (Was $79.99)

Don’t let this air fryer’s small size fool you—it can fit up to one pound of french fries, 10 taquitos, and not one, but two Hot Pockets. If you’re looking for scientific measurements, that’s two quarts-worth of space. Regardless, that’s plenty of room to make a post-night-out midnight snack. The basket is dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning, and the cooking basket and crisper plate include a nonstick coating so crumbs don’t overstay their welcome. Plus, you don’t have to worry about waiting near your air fryer while your food is cooking: You get alerted when your food is done.

You won’t get alerted when this deal is done, so snag it before other parents, college kids, and new apartment tenants.

Why Trust Popular Science

Popular Science started writing about technology more than 150 years ago. There was no such thing as “gadget writing” when we published our first issue in 1872, but if there was, our mission to demystify the world of innovation for everyday readers means we would have been all over it. Here in the present, PopSci is fully committed to helping readers navigate the increasingly intimidating array of devices on the market right now.

Our writers and editors have combined decades of experience covering and reviewing consumer electronics. We each have our own obsessive specialties—from high-end audio to video games to cameras and beyond—but when we’re reviewing devices outside of our immediate wheelhouses, we do our best to seek out trustworthy voices and opinions to help guide people to the very best recommendations. We know we don’t know everything, but we’re excited to live through the analysis paralysis that internet shopping can spur so readers don’t have to.
