I’ve tested more air fryers than I care to admit, and while most promise “restaurant-style crisp,” the results often land somewhere between baked and mildly crunchy. That’s why I was curious when I decided to try the Kleva SpinCrisp Rotating Digital Air Fryer. It was a rotating basket design, which promised more even cooking and better texture compared with standard air fryers. After using it every day for several weeks, I can finally answer: “Is it really crispier than a regular air fryer?”
First Impressions & Setup
Straight out of the box, the SpinCrisp seems more substantial than any other air-fryer I’ve owned. It’s the taller, up and down build, not the regular long style of drawer—this took a minute to adjust to, but it also means that rather than taking over my precious bench space. The setup was delightfully simple: Plug it in and choose a mode, and you’re in business. The digital panel is easy to use, and I appreciated that I didn't need to guess temperatures or times. Most everyday food already had their own preset setting. Within minutes, I felt confident using it, which is rare with kitchen gadgets.
The Rotating Basket: What Makes It Different?
The star is the spinning basket. Food isn’t stagnant in a tray while the heat is blasting, but rather the basket gradually turns as hot air is blowing. This feature was the primary reason I wanted to test out the Kleva SpinCrisp Rotating Digital Air Fryer, because uneven cooking is one thing about regular air fryers that frustrates me the most. In real life, the rotation makes a difference, after all. Fries didn’t require that mid-cook shaking, chicken wings browned evenly all over, and vegetables roasted without those random pale spots. I found myself opening the door less often to “check and flip,” which also helped keep the cooking temperature consistent.
My Real Cooking Results
Fries
This was my first test because fries are unforgiving that way. I made a batch from frozen chips at the recommended setting. The outside emerged even crisper than in my regular air fryer, and the inside remained nice and tender. No half-soft pieces, no scorched edges — and I didn’t shake the basket at all.
Chicken Wings
I seasoned one batch and let the fryer do what it did. The skin actually turned out amazing, nice and golden. It didn’t require a mist of cooking oil or flipping halfway through. My old air fryer fish sticks were tougher and had less soggy skin near the joints.
Vegetables
Brussels sprouts and zucchini were roasted just so, crispy on the edges but tender inside:. What impressed me most was how even the results were — both from side to side, and top to bottom, of the basket.
Reheating Leftovers
Pizza, fried chicken — and even last night’s wedges came out crispy and fresh (not that rubbery “microwave effect”). It really felt like food was being brought back to life, not merely reheated.
Features That Actually Matter
One thing I appreciated about the Kleva SpinCrisp Rotating Digital Air Fryer is that the features aren’t just gimmicks.
- 360° Rotation: The core benefit. Food cooks evenly without constant opening, flipping, or shaking.
- Digital Presets: Straightforward programs for fries, chicken, seafood, and more.
- Oil-Free Cooking: I barely used oil and still got crisp results.
- Vertical Design: Saves bench space while still offering decent capacity.
- Clear Viewing Window: Lets you check progress without stopping the cycle.
These details might seem small, but together they made everyday cooking easier.
Pros: What I Genuinely Liked
- Crispier Results: The rotation delivers a texture closer to deep frying than most air fryers I’ve used.
- Even Cooking: No hot spots, no half-cooked pieces.
- Low Maintenance: The basket is easy to remove and clean.
- Less Intervention: I didn’t have to shake or flip food mid-cook.
Cons: Where It Falls Short
- Learning Curve: The vertical layout and rotating basket take a bit of getting used to.
- Capacity for Flat Foods: Large fillets or layered foods can be awkward.
- Noise Level: The rotation motor is slightly more noticeable than a basic air fryer fan.
These aren’t deal-breakers for me, but they’re worth knowing if you’re deciding between models.
Is It Really Crispier Than a Traditional Air Fryer?
In my experience: yes. The revolving action corrects one of the largest issues with regular air fryers: unequal heat exposure. Foods emerged with more even browning, better crunch, and far fewer “soft patches.” “It wasn’t just a little bit of an upgrade for me; it completely changed the amount to which I could depend on getting something good. If you’re the type of person who is forever shaking baskets, turning wings, or disappointed by half-crispy meals, the difference can be felt.
Final Verdict
Now, the Kleva SpinCrisp has become a go-to option instead of a traditional air fryer after weeks of using it almost every day. The twisting basket delivers better, more consistent results with less effort. It’s not perfect, but few kitchen tools have transformed my cooking with such crispness and ease of use, all the while taking up far less counter space than its clunkier predecessors. For me, it’s actually the one that finally does what air fryers have always promised, which is crispy food, with no shaking or fidgeting around or oil.
