Sorry I know it's the wrong thread, just trying to get more attention because me and my family members also have products listed.

I almost had a heart attack because I just saw "Best Buy + air fryer recall" thinking Bella Pro Series was a Best Buy brand

Good to know. Deal Talk doesn't have much visibility and plenty of people here may have one of these models.

Thanks for posting. Would have missed this if it was posted on Deal Talk. We have the NS-AF32MBK9. Been using it at least twice a month for about 2 years. No issues with it so far but wouldn't mind a new one! Think we paid $39.99 for it (was posted here)

The air fryer I bought for $45 is now $130. How can they sell a product, accept its defective, and only provide $50 with no option of a replacement that works safely…
