    French Fries with almost no oil and no oily taste.

    Reviewed by - August 8, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to use. I cut my potatoes into wedges, rinsed them under the tap, drained and patted dry,. Next, I poured a spoonful of olive oil in a small bowl, added the wedges, using my hands, tossed them around then lightly sated them. Dump them into the tray, pop it into the unit, set the dial for 400-degrees, 20 minutes and that's it. Out came beautiful, crispy outside moist inside with no oily taste fries. Easy to clean too. I like: * large container size * easy to set and read temperature dial * Easy to set timer * blue and red indicator lights on top * the outside of the fryer stayed cool to the touch, but heed the warning sticker on the back and don't touch * Really liked that the heater turns off when you remve the cooking tray! The only thing I would change is to have the removable tray turn to lock so shaking the basket contents doesn't end in the tray getting tilted and food gets under it. Super easy to clean. NO smelly, smoky burt oil!

    Eat healthier without added oils

    Reviewed by - August 14, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first air fryer as we have been wanting to get one for a long time. This is a great little appliance for anyone wanting to eat healthier and still indulge in “fried” foods. It has a simple to use turn dial for heat setting and timer setting. That’s it. No extra buttons to familiarize yourself with for a learning curve. Pretty simple and easy to use right off the bat. It has a 15 cup capacity in it 3.7 quart basket area. Looks nice when sitting on the counter as it’s aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Has 1200W of power so it gives the appliance plenty of power to get the food cooked properly and thoroughly. And for easy clean up the basket and tray are both dishwasher safe for convenience. So far we have used this recipe book that comes with it to make chicken wings and they turned out great. Frozen, raw, chicken wings that we seasoned and sprayed with some oil. No mystery ingredients from the restaurant, so we know exactly what is in our food. They turned out great and were just to our liking. Took about 30 minutes total to get the wings how we wanted them and that was super simple to do. Set it and shake the basket half way through or rotate the wings for an even crisping. Since our first food trial, we have been using it for homemade zucchini fries, air fried ravioli, and air fried broccoli. Loving our food experiments and the fact that this is healthier than eating deep fried in oil food. PRO: Durable and sturdy Easy to use dial Medium sized basket Healthier eating CON: Wish the basket was bigger to fit more food in

    Great fryer!

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - January 11, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a perfect fryer for a dorm or Studio apartment. Not much space needed, doesn’t get really hot on the outsides. Have tried many things, but the best things so far have been wings and surprisingly enough Grilled Cheese sandwich! The bread gets crunchy through and through, you do need to turn it though. But so worth it! A big con for a family of 3 is the size. Going for the 6.5 quart!

    Love this little guy

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - August 30, 2020

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay so I’ve had this air fryer for over a month before my review. First off I didn’t know I would use it this much. Secondly yes I wish it was slight bigger but for the price it’s great and it works great as well. As for the smell I did see other reviews had said it smelled even after washes. And it does it smells like plastic I cleaned and soaked it before my first use. But it didn’t matter it still had a strong plastic smell. After using it with light olive oil it still has the smell but it’s not as strong. But this does not effect the taste of the food or how this product works. It’s a great must have. Especially for one to two people. I would not suggest it for a bigger family. It’s super easy to use and clean.

    Disappointing

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - September 10, 2021

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Despite following the care instructions, little flecks of the non-stick coating began washing off during the first wash. It was hand washed in warm soapy(Palmolive) water, using a soft sponge. On the bright side, it appears no more of the non-stick coating has washed off since then, but I really should have gotten a protection plan. I don't really know how much more use I'm going to get out of it, as just about everything sticks to the spots where it washed off. Cleaning is not as easy as they imply. When you clean it, the small handle that you lift the bottom out with can get stuff under it, which can be time consuming to get out. It is also difficult to get completely dry, which is probably why mine is already rusting there less than a month after purchase. Additionally, I can see where the under-turned edge around most of the bottom is likely to get oil or grease under it if you cook anything that would drip. This seems especially likely near the removeable rubber grips on the bottom tray. Another possible issue I see is that the fill line is above the screws holding the basket together, and these screws are not coated with a non-stick layer. This is likely to eventually cause issues as buildup forms on them, as you can not scrub them clean without damaging the finish on the surrounding area. Be very wary of the cooking directions given in the manual, as you are likely to burn food by following them. Try to find foods that have their own air fryer cooking instructions, as those seem spot on. I'm probably not going to get another air fryer after this, as I am not sure my experience would be any better. It generally does the same thing as my convection oven, just on a smaller scale.

    Quick and Easy Food

    Reviewed by - August 10, 2019

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] ---SETUP--- The setup of the CHEFMAN Air Fryer was quick. It’s all one single unit and comes with a non-detachable cable. The cable is about 4 feet in length. Products like this one usually have short cables to prevent risk of fire. ---PROS--- This product has the following pros: Analog dial timer Analog temperature dial Cool house touching 1200 W of power Easy to clean Auth-Shut off Maximum Temperature of 400 degrees Minimum Temperature of 200 degrees ---CONS--- The products cons are: Analog dial timer Weighs 10 lbs. It’s bulky Closing pan requires double-checking ---THE LONG AND SHORT OF IT--- Ever since I bought my first air fryer, I fell in love with them. This one is my third air fryer simply because they are easy to use and faster to cook in. To start with, this air fryer’s aesthetics compliment my kitchen’s other black appliances. It is shiny but with a matte look that doesn’t reflect you or your kitchen. It will be pleasant to look at if you decide to leave this on the counter top. This is the first analog dial timer air fryer that I own. This can be a pro for people who aren’t used to digital timers or pushing buttons. My wife, for example, prefers using this air fryer now because you only have two things to turn for it to start cooking, the temperature and the timer dial. The dial timer is also a con because you can’t reduce the time to cook once you have set the timer where a digital timer would let you do that. Cooking frozen, raw chicken wings was a breeze. The package stated that in a conventional oven, it would take 60 minutes. In the air fryer, it took 20 minutes. I marinated them with some lemon-pepper seasoning while frozen and they came out delicious. I did have an issue closing the pan tank. It closed and cooked, but I noticed that it had to give it an extra small nudge for it to look closed, where as my other air fryers glide in and out with ease. Not something concerning, though, as the fryer works as intended. The removable flat basket was a challenge to clean because food debris sticks to it. I sprayed it with PAM oil but it still didn’t clean as easy as I’d like. It is dishwasher safe, though, and I cleaned it by hand. It’s size makes it easier to store, but it is still a bulky item, like all air fryers. The weight of it may be a con to some if you are gifting this to people you may not be able to carry heavy items. ---RECOMMENDATION--- I highly recommend this product for people who prefer analog vs. digital options and are looking to cook for 2-3 people in their household.
