Magnifique folds air frying and multi-cooking into the Combo, a glass countertop cooker that uses the same pot for crisping and slow cooking. It gives people cooking at home one vessel for quick browning and longer, hands-off meals instead of shifting food between separate appliances.
The 12-in-1 unit uses a 4.5-quart glass pot. An AirCrisper top handles crisping and baking, while the base turns the same vessel into a cooker for tasks like steaming or slow cooking; a steam rack and crisper disk are included.
Priced at $249.99, the coating-free glass build turns the Combo into an option for buyers trying to replace both an air fryer and a small multi-cooker with one appliance on the counter. Its lack of UK availability leaves that hybrid format out of reach for buyers there.

Key Themes Behind This Trend
- Hybrid Countertop Cooking
- All-in-one appliances that merge crisping, baking, steaming, and slow cooking create white space for compact kitchen tools that reduce device clutter without sacrificing meal variety.
- Coating-free Cookware
- Glass-based cooking vessels reflect growing demand for non-coated food-contact surfaces, opening room for premium appliances positioned around material transparency and easier cleaning.
- Single-vessel Meal Prep
- Countertop systems built around one reusable pot highlight opportunities for streamlined cooking workflows that minimize transfers, accessories, and cleanup time.
Where This Applies
- Home Appliances
- Compact multifunction cookers are reshaping appliance design by combining formerly separate categories into one countertop product for space-conscious households.
- Kitchenware
- Durable glass pots and integrated accessories signal new potential for cookware ecosystems that bridge traditional vessels and smart countertop bases.
- Consumer Retail
- Mid-priced hybrid cooking devices give retailers a differentiated category between air fryers and multicookers, especially where regional availability gaps remain.
