Quality

Dash DFAF455GBAQ01 feels fairly well built however there have been two issues reported by some consumers (keep in mind it’s hard to estimate how common they are, very well might be uncommon).

First issue is that screws on the handle of the basket can come loose over time. The second issue is that some reported nonstick coating coming off. Keep in mind you should never clean nonstick coating with abrasive materials which might be the cause for those who complained.

Other

Crisper basket is dishwasher safe and you can clean interior of the air fryer with a cloth.

Dash DFAF455GBAQ01 is cETL Certified (the rest of the air fryers in this article are too so we won’t repeat this).

Verdict

Dash DFAF455GBAQ01 is a simple and basic air fryer that works just fine. It doesn’t have any fancy features like more expensive models do but a lot of people don’t need those.
