Everything tastes better fried, but a diet filled with fried foods isn’t healthy for anyone. If only there was a machine that could fry all your favorite foods using little to no oil, but still deliver the same mouthwatering flavor and irresistible texture.

Enter the air fryer: the countertop appliance du jour. Ready to find out what all the buzz is about? Right now, you can score the game-changing Wolfgang Puck 9-Quart 1700-Watt Air Fryer for just $120—that’s $40 off the regular list price—on HSN.

This best-selling air fryer delivers healthy versions of your favorite fried foods—like chicken wings, mozzarella sticks, doughnuts, and yes, french fries—in record time and with minimal cleanup. As if that weren’t tempting enough, this appliance even prepares foods that aren’t fried. An air fryer can cook steaks, roast vegetables, bake cookies, and hard-boil eggs, to name just a few.

Surprising, huh? There’s a reason this Wolfgang Puck air fryer sells out so fast. Now that everyone’s doing more cooking than usual, air fryer sales are through the roof—even more so than usual. HSN’s big one-day discount caters to all of us who are giving our kitchen appliances a workout lately.

Here’s how the air fryer produces such tasty, crispy, juicy meals using a tiny fraction of the oil you’d use in a deep fryer—or even in a frying pan. It envelopes foods in super-hot air, a lot like a convection oven does, but the air circulates in a swirling motion that cooks more evenly and quickly. The Wolfgang Puck air fryer has a roomy nine-quart non-stick basket, giving the hot air enough space to really do its thing (the bigger the chamber, the better).

Air fryers also use fewer chemical compounds than traditional fryers, scoring even more points in the health department. This one happens to come in a fun red package that brightens up your countertop, so it’s eye-candy to boot. Prefer something that blends in more? There's a black version, too. You’ll get a user guide with 10 recipes to get you started and a one-year limited warranty too—all for $40 off today on HSN.

If you have a house full of hungry hunker-downers and you’re running out of dinner ideas, grabbing the Wolfgang Puck 9-Quart 1700-Watt Air Fryer before it sells out is the best idea of all.
