Our take
On this page
Our verdict
The T17216BLK is the pick if you want to see your food. Tower says both drawers have viewing windows and internal lights, so you can check chips or fish without pulling the drawer out. It adds 9 L of total capacity, a colour touch display with 10 presets and a shake reminder on some of them, Match Cook and Sync Finish, and a 3-year warranty once you register. Skip it if dishwasher-safe drawers matter: Tower calls them non-stick for easy cleaning but does not say they can go in the dishwasher. The variant trap: Tower sells many Vortx dual-basket models (8 L, 8.5 L, 10.4 L, an 11 L dual stack and a 9 L without windows), so check the listing says T17216BLK.
Placement and power
Tower lists it at 29.8 cm high, 42.1 cm wide and 40 cm deep, rated at 2400 W. Give it a wall socket of its own and room behind for the hot air to vent. Electrical Safety First advises never leaving an air fryer unattended while it is in use and letting it cool for at least 30 minutes before cleaning.
FAQ
Does it have a Match function?
Yes. Tower calls it Match Cook: it duplicates one basket's settings in the other for a double batch.
How long is the warranty?
One year as standard, extended by two years when you register online, according to Tower.
