takes forever"very poor takes forever to even cook the smallest portion of chips they over cook on one side and remain uncooked on the other side"
|
98.8% |
pretty poor"apart from size and ability for the princess to cook larger amounts both fryers are very similar in terms of control cooking times pretty poor instruction and recipe books and ablity to produce lower calorie fat content foods"
|
94.6% |
biggest disappointment"the biggest disappointment was that they didn't cook evenly some were very well done almost border line burnt whilst others were still raw despite a good half hour cooking yes we cooked a full basket for four of us but the fryer says you can do"
|
93.3% |
quite noisy"also the whole thing is quite noisy when it is working full tilt"

75.0% |
extremely misleading"the only downside is that the provided instructions are extremely misleading and very scant"
|
74.8% |
remove basket"you just set the time for about 18 minutes and shake the basket while in the pan halfway through then when cooked remove basket using the quick release button otherwise and oil residue in pan would get tipped out too and put onto your plates"
|
74.8% |
rather stiff"the main criticisms i have if this is that the draw to it is rather stiff and a bit of an effort to get in and out when it is full"
|
74.8% |
were disappointing"chips on the night were disappointing though we literally went fat free as no instructions in the box and the chips were more jacket potato in chip shapes not unpleasant but not like a chip either"
|
74.8% |
fried food"i have to say at this point i have never fried a chip in my life and we don't eat much fried food so wasn't sure how useful it would be but as my son pointed out it's like a mini oven so can be used for baking etc too so he encouraged me to be open minded!"
|
74.7% |
sluggish and slow"this unit has a lot more cooking power and when i go back to my original branded airfryer it seems sluggish and slow by comparison and it smokes during cooking a lot more than this one "
|
74.6% |
mixed results"but for a novice there is some experimentation needed in lieu of instructions and this could lead to mixed results!"
|
74.4% |
cooked unevenly"the second attempt we sprayed with some 1 cal fry oil like i'd do if making oven chips in the oven but again we found they cooked unevenly even though we turned them half way through"

72.3% |
very fiddly"just to realise that there are no instructions how to take the cooking pan out a very fiddly button that actually is not to be pressed when you want to pull the pan out of the machine but only when already out and you need to release the pan from the support where the juices drain into"
|
71.8% |
pushed down"removing the basket from the drawer needs the button on the handle to be pushed down in order to release the locking mechanism"
|
70.9% |
crispness doesnt"the crispness doesnt last as long as oil fried so make the chips last of all when making a meal but the taste is very close to conventional fried chips but not greasy and not dry like oven chips so this device gets my vote"
|
70.0% |
very basic"second i dont know if they all do but mine had only a very basic use leaflet no real guidance on use so a lot of it was trial and error for example i cooked oven chips in it and they cremated within 15 minutes 8 minutes seemed about the right time but then making mini roast potatoes they took about the same time as doing them in the oven"
|
69.9% |
very scant"the only downside is that the provided instructions are extremely misleading and very scant"
|
69.7% |
would massively"so if you have room and do a lot of oven cooking i would massively recommend it but unless it typically comes with a guide recipe book you might need to spend some time on google to figure out how best to use it!"

little tuff"the only downside is the drawer is a little tuff to pull out but it is getting easier over time"
|
69.1% |
fried chips"the crispness doesnt last as long as oil fried so make the chips last of all when making a meal but the taste is very close to conventional fried chips but not greasy and not dry like oven chips so this device gets my vote"

68.1% |
stick coating"i love mine pity the non stick coating comes off"
|
67.6% |
clockwork timers"i am not a fan of the earlier clockwork timers on early models but nor am i a fan of the type of touch sensitive controls but i sense that the control panel on this item might start to play up over time too"

|
55.2% |
