Title: Brilliant
Review: Bought this for my elderly relatives for the home help to use, so they could still have their chips. Then bought one for my mum too. As it was so easy to use, chips are yummy made in it and just need to push the chip button. Booklet has easy to follow instructions and its not a hard machine to use, some I looked at only had one dial and was ard to follow. This one you push buttons to increase temperature or time just like the Ninja one. It is also easy to clean. Just what we wanted, a good size and great value for money.

Title: Easy to use & not pre-heating required
Review: It’s just the right size for our household and can do a decent dinner for two. And excellent for chips! It also has a panel so you can separate into two compartments in the drawer. It’s very fast to cook, no pre-heating required, very easy to use and excellent value for money. There are pre-heat setting but we just use the manual “menu” option and adjust everything as we need. Very easy to clean as there’s no awkward grooves or shapes within the drawer compartment. No complaints and definitely worth the upgrade from our previous (and more basic) older model.

Title: An efficient and elegant air fryer. Converted!
Review: This is a game changer in cooking. I’ve never owned an air fryer before but others who had them convinced me to try one out and I’m glad I did.This air fryer is efficient and easy to use. It takes some educated guesswork to establish how long you cook food in it for, and appropriate temperatures, as it’s unlike an oven which needs time to heat up. Instead, as a guide I halve the time indicated on packaging instructions, otherwise you’ll end up with chargrilled and overcooked food. While it comes with I instructions and a guarantee, it’s best setting it for several minutes at a time with new foods until you can gauge its strength and power.It’s easy to clean (basket and divider are dishwasher safe too, but the drawer isn’t), and simple to operate with the digital panel. I’ve not experienced any issues raised from other reviews, about the device not resuming the cooking programme if you open the drawer and close it again. That may be a software issue from a particular batch some time ago now. It’s been straightforward to use and looks good too.Leave enough space around the air fryer when in use, in order for heat to dissipate and ensure you don’t burn or melt anything in the vicinity. This is common sense really, and fortunately I’ve not had any adverse problem to prompt this in my review, however, it’s always worth mentioning as some users may be surprised this device emits heat when cooking!Overall, a great workhorse particularly if it’s your first ever air fryer. I believe you should buy what you can afford and you tend to get what you pay for. This item, while purchased on offer/sale, was still higher in cost than other brands and models (some also on sale and reduced in price). But in this instance I would advise the build quality and sturdiness sets it apart from the cheaper models on sale too.My only criticism would be the hinged cover over the button that detaches the basket from the drawer unit. It does appear to be somewhat flimsy in contrast to the overall build and size of the device, so care should be taken you don’t snap it off by accident when using it.

Title: I would be lost without this now!
Review: I was recommended this air fryer by a friend – I’d never considered having one before and goodness, it’s been a game changer! I cook so much in it – from the normal chips and potatoes, nuggets etc to fish, sausages and veggies. My oven is almost entirely neglected now, only being switched on to warm the occasional pizza!Pros:- It’s large and a good price for the size (at the time of buying, Amazon offered the ‘pay in instalments’ function which certainly helped spread the cost too). To be honest, with just my daughter and in the house I probably didn’t need one so big but it will cook a whole roast chicken in an hour with no fuss at all.- It’s so quick and convenient ! I can literally cook a portion of chips and chicken nuggets in there in about 12 minutes.- It’s easy to use. Takes no time at all to work out the buttons and what they do.- Healthier. I add oil to things like roast chicken as per manufacturer instruction in the guide booklet but not to things like pre-packaged oven chips. Your food is not sitting in the oil because of the basket.- Even cooking you just can’t obtain in an oven with constantly checking and turning food.- Lovely and tasty crispy chips, potatoes, chicken, salmon etc every time!Cons:- it’s quite a lump on the kitchen side and it’s not exactly sleek looking (more resembling a bumbling droid from Star Wars).- I personally don’t find it hugely easy to clean – I can never seem to degrease it entirely.- I am on my second one of these now. My first, bought in March 2021 was fine until the end of July 2021 when it decided to die peacefully but mysteriously when not in use (it just stopped having power). Sadly, it wasn’t an easy fix of changing the plug fuse, so I notified Amazon Customer Services who promptly sorted me out with a replacement. Fingers crossed the new one at least makes it to it’s first birthday (hence the four stars).

Title: Best thing ever
Review: The increase in energy bills caused me to look for alternative ways of cooking.I LOVE THIS.It saves of energy, it’s easy to use and reduces cooking time considerably. Your food comes out perfectly cooked every time, it allows you to get the perfect food texture too (crispy, soft, melt in the mouth).This is way more than a little oven. It’s like having a little chef cooking your meals for you.
