Customers are saying
Customers often highlight the ease of use, delicious food quality, and the surprisingly good value for the price of the 2.5L Analog Air Fryer. Many appreciate the low oil usage and the crispness achieved, resulting in food that tastes as good as deep-fried alternatives. However, some find the cooking basket to be on the smaller side, limiting the amount of food that can be cooked at once. A few users also mention some minor issues with the timer's functionality.

The basket peels after a few uses
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this product through Best Buy. The basket started peeling after about a month's use. The unit works fine, but the basket peels. When I contacted Chefman to see if I could purchase the basket alone, I received a series of messages asking me for pictures of the unit, for what I used to clean, etc. They kept saying I could order a basket, but in the end, after a week of emails back and forth, they finally just tell me to take the unit back to where I purchased it. I could have done that on the 1st day. Instead their customer service wanted to exchange emails but did not want to answer my questions and had no intention of sending me a basket, whether I paid or not. The problem is, since the basket peels after so few uses, I will have to replace it more than once without taking the entire unit back.

Small and poor quality
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was super excited to get this air fryer as a gift and started using it right away. It was way smaller than I was expecting but it still did the job at first. It was easy to use and made wonderfully crispy food. The nonstick coating started washing off after just a few washings and thats all by hand. The poor air fryer only made it to the 1 year mark and then died completely and the warranty didn't cover anything. I ended up having to buy a whole new totally different air fryer. definitely wouldnt recommend this one.

Great Product but...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When it worked it was a lifesaver! Warming up small snacks was a breeze. But it was purchased in Feb 2017 and Dec 2017 it stopped working. They are sending me a replacement which is great but it could have at least last a year.

Works like a convection oven
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The air fryer worked well It's just like my convection oven but smaller. Great for alternative to a oven if u don't mind giving up the counter space and hand washing everything

Worked well at first
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was our first air fryer and it worked as expected for the first 4 months. We used it 2-3 per month; approximate total usage of <12 hours. Then one day we noticed a strange odor reminiscent of burning, melting plastic. After inspecting the exterior, basket, etc. I couldn't locate any faulty anything. So, we tried it again and same thing. After contacting customer service they were no help in troubleshooting or replacing/fixing via warranty since I no longer had my receipt. In the end we purchased another brand for less from Walmart which has worked wonderfully.

Poor build quality
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This air fryer was great while it worked. It slowly started to break after about a year. First the timer dial knob would occasionally not start up the air fryer. It would take a few tries turning the knob before it'll eventually turn on. The temperature slider became sticky and hard to adjust. With these issues I finally got rid of it. At least I bought it on sale, but still very disappointed.

Does not taste like deep fried!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.To be honest, the fryer works... But it doesn't taste like deep fried food. The food tastes more like oven food and we prefer to use our big oven better than to use this device. We only use the device twice and we're now trying to give it away for free to friends and family members, but no one wants it. We were looking for something that would make our food taste like deep fried without using a lot of oil. This device did not work for us.

Simple
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's very simple and easy to operate. However, the basket is way too easy to remove from the machine, doesn't give u a secure feeling. Also, it would be nice to have a on/off button. I have to unplug each time after use.

Does not replace a deep fryer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tray is extremely small, timer has to be set multiple times for food to get done. Does not stay hot very long. If you remove tray to check if food is done, you have to wait for air fryer to heat up again. Best use is heating up previously fried foods.

I had to return it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was my first attempt at trying an air fryer, but it did not work like I wanted. Perhaps it works well with processed/frozen items, but I tried to make sweet potato fries from a spiralized potato, and the results were not good.

Not my favorite appliance
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a deep fryer previously and loved it. I wanted to get something healthier and not as smelly. I found the basket on this product to be to small and it takes to long to cook.

Poor Design Features
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I returned this unit because it's design was not something I found easy to use, plus it was really large, real bulky, and noisy. I had no where to store it either due to its size.

Not so great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I enjoy cooking and cook regularly, the air fryer was supposed to be some magical device that made frying easy. I don’t feel that way. I used it for French fries, bacon and for dumplings. It was more work and a lot more time using this appliance. I felt like I spent double the time making each item for maybe oil savings. If you don’t properly coat your food in oil before frying it will be dry. I don’t recommend this and I returned it.

My wife and I love it. But didn't last long.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When I was single it was an everyother week item for me. But after I got married it became used every other day. Worked great but it didn't last even 3 years. Bout November 2017 died exactly 3 years later. And the warrenty as already expired. Going through Amazon for a newer model and a bigger trey. Its served its purpose.
