As early as the 1990s, QNC in Texas, the United States, launched the Quik n 'Crispy Greasless Fryer, a commercial air fryer.
In 2007, Tefal, France, launched a low-fat fryer called Actify, which is real domestic air fryer. It is just that the promotion does not focus on "hot air", but emphasizes the characteristics of desktop convection oven, less oil, and slurry mixing during production.
In 2010, Philips launched the Philips Airfryer at IFA (International Consumer Electronics Exhibition) in Berlin, Germany. Unlike Tefal's Actify, Philips Airfreer has an egg-shaped shape, and uses the patented Rapid Air Technology (high-speed air circulation technology) to reduce the fat content of fries by 80% compared with traditional fryers.
In the following time, Tefal Actify and Philips Airfreer were continuously compared as two different types of air fryers.
Air fryers were introduced to Europe and Australia in 2010, followed by North America, Japan, the Middle East, India, etc. Domestic words triggered wave of market attention after a number of domestic brands such as Jiuyang and Midea entered the field around 2015
