Airtasty X Large shuts itself off mid-cycle with no warning
Owner complaint on Şikayetvar (12 Dec 2025) naming the exact Airtasty X Large model: the unit stops itself without any warning mid-cooking, so food is undercooked and the owner must babysit and restart it. The owner says it is a brand-new unit and notes other users report the same. This matches the pack's mid-cycle shutdown claim for Arzum.
What to check. If you buy this model, test a full-length cycle immediately and keep the box; a self-stopping unit is a warranty/return case, not a repair.
Heating element heats but fan does not run, so food never cooks
Şikayetvar complaint (5 May 2025) on the AR2074 Airtasty XL: the display works and the unit heats, but no fan sound is heard, so food does not cook. A second complaint on the same page describes a 3-year-old AR2074-B being declared 'user error' and out of warranty by service.
What to check. If the basket gets hot but there is no fan noise and food stays raw, the fan motor or its connection has failed; check warranty coverage before paying for service.
Digital control panel defects: unlit, hard-to-read, sometimes installed upside down
Aggregated review of 1,396 user reviews of the AR2074/AR2091 Airtasty XL: the most-reported problem is a poor or mis-assembled digital control panel (unlit, hard to read, sometimes installed upside down), plus steam leaking into the panel during cooking.
What to check. Check the display works and is readable at purchase; steam ingress into the panel is a known weak point, so avoid letting condensation pool around it.
The same review aggregation reports the non-stick bowl surface scratches and wears easily. This matches the pack's surface/coating concern for air fryers, though it is a lower-frequency complaint for this model than the control-panel issues.
What to check. Use only soft utensils and avoid abrasive cleaning; once the coating is scratched, the non-stick benefit degrades and food sticks.
Same 1,396-review aggregation reports the removable basket's plastic handle tends to break or come loose, and some units' outer surface gets excessively hot. This is a structural/mechanical complaint, not a cooking-performance one.
What to check. Handle the basket by the grip firmly; a broken handle makes the hot basket unsafe to lift, and it is a consumable part you would have to source separately.
Smoke from the edges and display fogging during cooking
Hepsiburada's AI summary of 550 buyer reviews of the Ar2074-G Airtasty XL notes some users report smoke escaping from the unit's edges, the digital display fogging up, and the basket handle breaking. This is a lower-severity performance/quality complaint.
What to check. Expect some edge smoke and display fogging in normal use; if smoke is heavy or persistent, check for food debris and stop using the unit.
These reports come from the pages linked under each item: owner forums, repair guides and workshops. They are not a diagnosis of any one unit, and a careful check of the one you are buying still applies.
