TEFAL Air Fryer|Easy Fry & Grill 2-in-1 Air-Fryer and Grill| XXL Capacity|Flexcook Divider for Dual Cooking|Healthy Cooking|8 Automatic Programs|6.5 L Capacity|2 Years Warranty|EY801827

I've always been a late adopter to most new fads, and yet again with the air fryer! I couldn't escape the hype on TV/Radio and social media, and I recently deep cleaned my oven which I deeply resented on maybe the last warm and sunny day of year! When I make a home purchase, I tend to go to the top end of the market, as buy cheap buy twice mantra, but those brands sold out nationwide with never ending waiting lists and this brand popped up on recommendations from Amazon. Tefal is a brand I know and trust, and it's a good looking appliance, larger than I really need, but I like to batch cook, so I took the plunge, and this model is not available widely. I am now one of those people who profess the benefits of the air fryer! I've used it everyday since purchase. Like most reviews state, it's short on instructions, but easy to navigate and cook to your own preferences. Of course I tested with shop bought oven chips, which came out way better than an oven cook, and of course, quicker. Experimented with home made chips, a whole chicken, it accommodates 2.2Kg with ease, a meat thermometer is recommended for peace of mind, and tummy. My model is the 6.5L, I think a lot of the reviews are a mixture of all the Tefal Air Fryers available on Amazon. It runs quietly, so not sure how others say it's noisy, and it's easy to clean.I would have given it all round 5 stars bar a few of nit picking issues.It doesn't have a power on/off button; once it's switched on from the mains, it powers on, a minor irritant, to have to reach behind the unit all the time, but maybe that's for safety(?) It also seems impossible to cancel any cooking time without moving the countdown to 0, and when you're checking on food, it pauses the cook, but the timer is still counting down. I also wish when setting a manual cook, the temp and time counters moved ascending as opposed to descending, if you're not concentrating, you have a hotter and longer cook as the max setting is pre set, especially if you want to pre heat. Finally the grill plate is difficult to place in and remove, as it has recessed dips at the sides which are not easy to get to or to handle. All in all, I'm happy with cooking quality, the look, a nice flush facade, its quiet and a 2 year guarantee. I look forward to using it, and it's revived my home cooking skills and enthusiasm, especially as most of our meals are eaten at home presently, as going out is a little out of reach for most of us at present.

Bought as a cheaper alternative to a new oven! its mainly been used to cook chicken, chips, burgers and bacon. However it works as intended and cooks food well.The Sync function works very well and is useful for cooking on nights when kids are out. Can do a burger and chips, chip setting is 40 minutes so longer than oven cooking, which works for me as I can set it going and ignore until it beeps.

All good (my opinion)..

Just the size needed for one person. great, would recommend this item and so easy to use.

The machine works well. However I notice the worktop where I put the machine on gets really hot when in operation. I used 2 other airfryer before and doesnt have this problem.I asked few other customers, seems to be a common ie worktop especially in front of the machine gets hot.I have to bring the machine towards the edge of the counter so it has more ventilation when in use. Seems to solve the problem.
