This Retro Our Place Air Fryer Is as Beautiful as It Is Clever – And It's Under $270 for Labor Day
It's a rare appliance we'd happily leave on display
It is usually difficult to get excited about something as mundane as a new kitchen appliance. Unless you are a food fanatic like I am, air fryers are just another bulky amenity taking up space on your countertop.
Enter the Our Place Wonder Oven Pro. As one of our long-standing best non-toxic air fryers, it is one of the prettiest countertop appliances I have seen, merging retro style and bold color with everyday convenience.
The best news? This firm favorite of ours has finally dipped below $300 at Amazon in the Labor Day sales, making it the perfect time to snap up in time for the chaos of holiday hosting.
Available in cream, stainless steel, black, and blue, this chic appliance is $56 off in the sale. Looking for something a little smaller? The original Wonder Oven is currently $37 off at Amazon, too.
While far from the most affordable air fryer in our round-up, the Wonder Oven Pro has held its spot as the best designed for months at this point. With a stainless steel interior and fun pastel exteriors, LED control panel, and a retro silhouette, it is made for sitting on your counter, looking as good as it performs.
As we speed towards the fall and winter hosting season, it is the perfect upgrade for cooking for a crowd. Boasting a roomy interior large enough to roast a whole chicken or three spacious cooking racks, it complements (or even replaces) your conventional oven, helping to serve multi-course meals without the typical game of Tetris needed to make it through to dessert.
Reviewed for us by our expert tester Tobey Grumet Segal, the only 'fault' we could find was the price, leaning to the expensive side compared to similar options. That said, with the sale, it's nearly perfect.
Giving it five stars, Tobey wrote, 'I’ll admit it: I didn’t expect to like this oven – in its cute, retro design and chic matte colors – as much as I did. But it truly won me over with its pitch-perfect touchscreen, eight cooking modes, powerful convection fan, and steam-infusion features. It’s big enough to cook for a family, yet compact enough to tuck neatly into a countertop corner.
'Given its size, versatility, and performance compared to similar models on the market, it offers good value for money. The results were crispier, faster, and more impressive than I expected, and it's non-toxic. Really, what more can you ask for?'
What Else to Shop
From compact countertop options to the equally impressive non-toxic cookware from Our Place, these are the mindful, colorful kitchen upgrades I wouldn’t hesitate to stock up on while the sale lasts.

Rated five stars in our review, the complete Our Place pan set is a fantastic all-in-one ceramic cookware set for nay kitchen. Unlike some non-stick pans, it can still achieve a good crisp and sear, and comes with its own organizers. They are a little heavy, however, and need to be hand washed. Luckily, this is easy to do.
The original Wonder Oven is a lot smaller than the Pro, with dials rather than an LED screen. We still loved it, however, giving it four stars just for the slight lack of detailed control over the settings. It is a great option for small kitchens and those shopping on a smaller budget.
For avid home bakers, it can be difficult to get away from traditional non-stick. This ceramic bakeware set is the perfect alternative, offering low-stick performance with fewer health risks. They fit into the original Wonder Oven, too.
Our expert chef, Lydia Hayman, gave this pan four stars in her review. It's dishwasher-safe and it won't leach chemicals, since it's free from PFOAs, PTFEs, lead, and cadmium. Food sizzles, glides, and browns effortlessly. It is heavy though.
From baking to sauteing, crisping to boiling, this genius duo does it all. It’s a whole new way to cook at home, it is an entire culinary system in just two pieces. It is perfect for homes with limited kitchen storage.
