If my kitchen had room, I would buy another!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.1 touch function presets are a plus...makes the ordinary, repetitive tasks simple and predictable. "Sensor" feature seems to be spot-on. I really like the copper band on the handle...a nice touch.

Doesn't work and I would never recommend this.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product is disappointing for two main reasons. Firstly, the integrated air fryer feature was a selling point, but upon using it, I discovered that there was no way to set the temperature for the air fryer despite the manual indicating otherwise. I contacted customer support, and a technician was sent to my home, but unfortunately, he could not resolve the issue and did not follow up with me as promised. He told me that when he called Cafe customer support they told him that the manual for the unit was incorrect!!? You can't actually set the temp for the air fryer. Really!? Secondly, after owning the product for only a month, I encountered a new issue where none of the buttons were responding when I tried to use it. This is frustrating because I expected better quality control for a high-end product. Overall, I am dissatisfied with this purchase.
