Full Review

The Tower Vortx T17088 answers the main limitation of single-basket air fryers: you can cook chips and chicken at the same time, independently, and synchronise the finish. Two 4.5-litre baskets share a 2400W element but operate separately — set different temperatures and times, or use Match mode to mirror settings across both. At 9 litres total capacity it handles full family portions without batching. The rapid air circulation system reduces cooking times by up to 40% versus a conventional oven while using significantly less energy. Tower backs the build with a 3-year guarantee — longer than most category competitors. At £59.99 (down from £119.99), the T17088 delivers dual-zone cooking at a price the Ninja Foodi MAX charges double for. Reviewers at 4.5 stars from over 13,000 buyers describe it as a straightforward workhorse that does what it says.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I cook different foods in each basket at different temperatures?

Yes. Each basket has independent temperature and timer controls. Set 200°C for chips in one basket and 180°C for chicken in the other — they run concurrently without affecting each other.

What is Sync mode vs Match mode?

Sync coordinates both baskets to finish at the same time even if cook times differ — it delays the faster basket. Match mirrors the settings from basket 1 to basket 2 instantly, useful when cooking the same food.

Is the 9L enough for a family of five?

Yes for most meals. The combined 9L handles chips for five, two portions of chicken thighs simultaneously, or full roast veg alongside a joint. It's the minimum capacity worth buying for a household over three.
