The HoninJoy 12-Qt Dual Basket Air Fryer is a side-by-side two-drawer air fryer with two 6-quart baskets, each with its own heater and fan, so you can cook two foods at different times and temperatures. Sync Finish staggers the starts so both baskets finish together, and Dual mode copies one setting to both for a full 12-quart batch. Each drawer has a viewing window and there is a light button, so you can check browning without pulling the basket. It runs from 160 to 400°F, has one-touch presets for fries, steak, fish, veggies, bacon, cake, shrimp and chicken, and comes with 50 paper liners. It sold for $149.99 on Amazon (25% off a $199.99 list price), shipped by Amazon and sold by HoninJoy US, with a 4.4-star rating from 137 ratings when we checked. Buy it if you feed four to six people and want big windowed baskets at a mid-range price. Skip it if you need higher heat than 400°F, a smart app or a built-in thermometer; the Ninja DZ550 adds a probe for more money.
Best for: Families of four to six, meal preppers and game-day cooks who want two large 6-Qt baskets with windows, Sync Finish and a price around $150, plus anyone who likes watching food crisp instead of guessing.
Skip it if: You have a narrow counter (it is about 15.4 inches wide), you want temperatures above 400°F, or you want a smart app or food thermometer. Compare the stacked HoninJoy 13-Qt Vertical for a smaller footprint or the Boyuevi 10-Qt With Windows for a slimmer windowed model.

HoninJoy 12-Qt specs and price from the Amazon listing on Nov 3, 2026. Read our HoninJoy 13-Qt Vertical and Boyuevi 10-Qt reviews for their full specs.
The listing title calls this a "12-in-1" air fryer, but the 12 includes buttons like Preheat, Sync, Dual and Light, so think of it as an air fryer with eight food presets plus manual Bake, Roast, Grill, Dehydrate and Reheat style cooking. The 400°F maximum is standard for basket air fryers, though some rivals go to 450°F. Amazon does not list the wattage, so check the label on the unit if you plan to run it with other appliances on the same circuit. The included paper liners are sized for these 6-Qt baskets; do not preheat with an empty liner inside or it can lift into the heater. It ships from Amazon and is sold by HoninJoy US, so returns go through Amazon. Prices change often, so check the listing before you buy.
Air fry yogurt-marinated, shawarma-spiced chicken thighs at 380°F in one basket and spiced potatoes in the other, then serve with garlic yogurt sauce and pickled onions. About 380 calories and 38 g protein per serving.
Get the recipe →It is a black side-by-side dual basket air fryer with two independent 6-quart baskets, viewing windows, a light, Sync Finish and Dual modes, a 160-400°F range and 50 paper liners. It sold for $149.99 on Amazon when we checked.
Yes. Each 6-Qt basket has its own heater and fan, so you can set different times and temperatures. Sync Finish makes both baskets finish together, and Dual mode runs both baskets on the same setting.
Yes. Both drawers have a viewing window, and a light button lets you see how your food is browning without pulling the basket out.
It runs from 160°F, low enough for jerky and fruit chips, up to 400°F for crispy fries, wings and chicken.
Yes. The nonstick baskets and crisper trays are dishwasher safe, and the included 50 paper liners help with sticky or saucy foods.
The 12-Qt gives you two equal 6-Qt baskets side by side, which is easier for two big batches. The 13-Qt Vertical stacks a 4.5-Qt and an 8.5-Qt basket to take up less counter width.
