Is India’s glass air fryer LUMA worth the hype?

The article reviews the LUMA air fryer, highlighting its unique transparent glass design compared to traditional metal baskets. It evaluates the appliance's performance, size, and usability for home cooking.
Why it matters
As air fryers become essential kitchen appliances, consumers are increasingly looking for aesthetic and functional alternatives to standard non-stick models.
Air fryers are the new Dyson. Everyone wants one. Even those who have never set foot in their kitchen seem to believe air fryers are magical cubes that will automatically make their food taste like it came from a restaurant.
The appeal is easy to understand. They promise crisp food with little or no oil, take up less space than an OTG oven, and can turn a handful of potatoes into something resembling fries without much effort. For a certain kind of home cook, they have become almost indispensable.
LUMA by EDT arrives with a proposition that makes it hard to ignore: instead of the usual metal non-stick coated basket, there is a thick, transparent glass bowl. You can actually watch your food cook. It is an unusually handsome appliance, the sort of thing that does not immediately make you want to hide it inside a cabinet.
