I was a bit doubtful when I first purchased the Actifry but it's turned out to be good for me. I've tried using commercial, packaged "oven ready" items [such as chips, wedges etc] and although SOMETIMES the 'crinkle cut' chips may not end up whole, I find it works well.

I like 'home made' "veggie" style chips and find that with the addition of just a little olive oil, the veggie chips turn out a treat, just what I want, lower fat, low salt and still delicious. Care is needed with 'pumpkin chips' as if the pumpkin is too ripe, the chips do not always stay in one piece.

I am on my THIRD machine. Love them but they really don't last long before you have to replace them. I only use it once or twice a week. The machine I have at the moment is that HOT you can Not touch it at all, It's very Bad. After my second machine I contacted TEFAL with no RESPONSE. NO MORE TEFAL

Cooked chips in it for the first time did a good job but the smell was so bad I had to go out of the room,wife said its only it was new BUT I don't know if a product should smell that bad when cooking the food you are eating can not be good for you, I don't think I will chance it so $300 wasted, my health is more important than chancing getting sick from a cooking utensil, non stick Teflon can cause cancer,

I liked for chicken wings and French fries. With the arm can not do delegate things. It has started to make a thumping noise now when it cooks. It has not lasted and too expensive to quite working so quickly. Sounds like the motor is going out. Very unhappy with quality.

I bought one of the first actifry's.....it was fantastic used it 5-7 days a week. The lid broke couldn't get it replaced/fixed. Bought the new one, it is just awful takes 3 times more to cook. If top cooks bottom doesn't. It cost nearly $300. And it's no where near as good as the first one. So disappointed in this so called new technology. What a shame tefal!! love the healthy cooking side just hate waiting for food to be cooked after the recommended time passes!!

I loved the actifry until it stopped spinning. Now it spins randomly and some food cooks, while other parts are still raw. I have to stand a watch it (Not great when you have 4 kids and chips take 30-40 minutes). Overall I would say it has been a disappointment. I won't be buying another one that's for sure.

Great product. Works with potato chips and sweet potato chips Chicken vegtables and much more! However takes a bit long to cook and is loud as well as being cheaply built but its still good. Tasty and healthy foods with no/ a bit of oil.

I was first a bit hesitant on purchasing this, especially since I was given a Phillips brand to try first. Hated the Phillips one, but the Tefal one is great. The chips were lovely and crispy. And no oil..... Cooks vegetables beautifully. And cooks sausages great as well. Can't wait to try more recipes. All in all, I am very happy..
little or no oil and cooks beautifully

Very happy with this product after a friend recommended it to us ... A great alternate to a deep fryer, great with both frozen chips and potatoes so simple, quick and easy to use and love that it's only a spoonful of oil ... Easy to clean just pop in the dishwasher
