Overall very satisfied with this machine. Have had it for 2 years and use it regularly. As I cook roasts in my slow cooker, the air fryer is a better option for me than using the oven to do the roast vegetables. Rosemary roast potatoes are our favourite, and they go golden and crispy without having to use vast amounts of fat. The machine is relatively easy to clean and (I'll be honest) a challenge to store because of the size and shape, but I managed to make room for it.

With two small children who love their nuggets and chips I thought this would be worth investing in. After about 12 months of use plastic bits start breaking and have to be replaced. With each part costing more and more it soon adds up to be a expensive investment. Cooked well when using for two people but the few times I tried cooking large amounts of chips it took a long time and they didn't cook properly. When the handle broke I vowed I wouldn't replace it as it's cost to much already!

easy to use, easy to clean, less oily foods.
we are using it for chips, vegetables (most of them), chicken nuggets and all become tasty for eating straight away.
foods goes a bit more tasteless than normal fry if they get cold
overall its a genius product making less mess and more healthier food

I love this machine! No more oil wastage or worried about oil igniting.I was concerned that it took 30 minutes for the chips to cook but by the time I prepared the rest of the meal,time was up.I have a slight vision problem and this means I can have my chips cooked in a safer way for me.The unit is easy to clean and not many parts to clean.It is a bit cumbersome but light enough to carry.I am recommending it to all I know.

A little on the bulky side but very simple and efficient to use, just one small spoonful of oil and I get perfect fries every time. I have also used it for making a one pot curry and it turned out delicious, reducing the amount of pans and wash up needed. easy wipe clean surface, no need to scrub.

I loved my machine. It worked well. But for a leading brand its housing and blade are useless.
For the price it didn't last long before it snapped the lid and blade rendering it useless. I did email the company ages ago but never heard anything back. I threw it out as a waste of money. Very disappointed!!

Our paddle just broke and since it's out of warranty Tefal won't replace it! The guy just kept saying "I don't know, I don't know" when I tried to explain to him it seems to be a common problem and should be replace for free! I'm not paying $50 for a part that's faulty.

I eat healthy and never used to fry chips because of the fat. When I got this and started using I didn't even need to use oil because I used the frozen chips from Woolies which turned out crispy and yummy for just 25mins. I keep it cooking on the side while I make other dishes.

Recommend it!

In my experienxe It is grear for fries and chicken wings but not so much for other food. However the enwrgy consumption is really high. If you fry potato alor, then go for it otherwise, i dpnt thunk is worth the price. It a alittle bit pricy in my opinion

Love this, you do not need the paddle unless for fries, if coating anything, remove paddle drop in cook, It is a time cooking, just like your oven, only difference, this does exactly what it should at constant temp were ovens very.

So in closing paddle out, unless making fries,

We've not tried this as a general "Fryer" but we have tried everything to cook decent chips, it's why we bought it! All we get no matter what we try is soggy chips.
We've tried different potatoes, different oils, different cooking times, chips soaked to remove the starch, then dried

cooks food in half the time the oven deos.. chicken wings are awesome in it and so are french fries. easy to clean and don't need dishwasher. Its little recipe book is very handy for quick easy meals.I would recomend this product for someone first starting in a new apartment with no stove or oven.

So far I have to give it 5 stars
Never burns anything as the meat is turned constantly by the paddle
I make a lot of pork chicken or beef strip Stir fry meals effortlessly now
And wow.. Did I mention how beautifully it cooks pork? Delicious crispy skin pork every time
This is easily my favorite cooking appliance and gets a lot of use
20 mins max for chips and stir fries

Absolutely Rubbish products and what a crap after service and customer service-believe me if there was a negative rating, I would Ve given them -5. Staff told me to read the manuals and work it out. Absolutely crap. Don't buy tefal. I use to think it's a good brand but I was wrong. And absolutely Rubbish customer service and after service. Staff is as dumb as car on 2 wheels.

love it when it worked.$200 and lasted twelve months.TEFAL dont want to know me and i have to pay $49 dollars to have it looked at.Beware when buying of Ebay if its not a retailer you are not covered with the warranty.Mine was brand new in a box sealed and unopened.I am not happy.Great product when it worked

Brought this back in 2014 used it a few times then stored it the cupboard. Went to use it today and realised where the lid clips in its all melted. Then realised they only come with 1year warranty -_- now i have a huge appliance that is completely useless great right
