    My first air fryer!

    This is my first air fryer. I purchased on a Deal Of The Day sale. I LOVE chicken tenders and french fries but wanted the option to bake them without firing up the oven. Enter the Chefman Air Fryer 6.5L. This is fairly large on my counter and is similar in size to my Pressure Cooker. It is simple to use. Plug it in. Fill up the deep basket without overflowing. You have to leave room to SHAKE the contents! Slide the basket in, set your temp and timer and shake halfway through. I can tell you after going through several bags of different frozen strips and fries that this thing works extremely well! Crispy, hot, delicious! Oh, and it's super easy to clean the basket and tray in my sink.

    Love my larger 6.8 L Chefman! Bought smaller one first, it is now boxed up for my daughter when she moves out. Having hard time finding accessories that fit though, XL accessories are to small but work. Wings, tots, fish sticks, are great. So are roasted veggies like cauliflower, Brussel sprouts, broccoli, asparagus and even cabbage.

    I was very excited to receive it, i read rhe booklet a few times the little information in it, I rinsed it out cold no soap water and I noticed bubbles and paint chips. Contacted the company and sent pictures and I'm on the waiting for a replacement since it will take a few weeks for the air basket to be available

    Product worked great the first time. The second time that we placed it in the dishwasher all of the black non stick material came off and was all over our dishwasher. Very disappointed on what could have been a great product. Would recommend stating that this product is not dishwasher safe and advertise it that way.

    BEST COOKING BUT NON-STICK COATING COMES OFF

    I have tried at least 4 other brands. This one was by far the BEST, QUICKEST, & MOST EVEN COOKING of the 5 brands. It is also the easiest to clean. HOWEVER, the Non-sticking coating is just that... non-sticking to the pan for very long. With frequent use and cleaning per the instructions, the "nom-stick" coating began peeling within a month or less. Online, others complained about this same issue. This happened to 2 air fryers that I bought at the same time during a X-mas special. The replacement basket and parts are not readily available. When I contacted Chefman Support about the defective parts with the warranty period, they asked me to confirm the model (which I already provided to them) and they would replace the defective parts...AT MY EXPENSES.... SO MUCH FOR PRODUCT WARRANTIES. I doubt that consuming the coating is health for our bodies, especially small children. While I would be willing to purchase another one of these because of its GREAT RESULTS, I am also hesitant because I know that the warranty is only on paper... and Replacement Parts are difficult to obtain. If you want a Great overall Air Fryer, this one is AWESOME. Unfortunately, it has the above mentioned negative aspects. Also, I purchased many of these and on more than one occasion as I gave them for X-mas presents one year. NOTE: I use mine more than most people ever will because I use them to prepare certain food items for my Rottweilers and puppies when I have litters, in addition to non-furry family members.

    Skeptical at first as it seems like the "trend" to get an air fryer but it is amazing, such a fast cooking time - no oil and less energy used to get things heated up compared to an oven. My only complaint is that the screws within the product, after you washed it - can/will rust. Highly recommend wash then dry immediately.

    I have all good things to say about this fryer. It came with a handy rack that keeps the meats or whatever you are cooking off of the bottom. I love that the basket size on this fryer is so big I can actually cook four good size hamburgers at the same time, you still have to flip your patties half way through but they are amazingly delicious. The cooking options are endless with baking or frying. And it is so easy to clean. I barely use my stove, I wish I would have gotten this a long time ago.

    So the misses wanted an air fryer. The ones I showed her were "too small". Best Buy runs this on on sale and I buy it because I haven't seen a bigger one before or since my purchase. So it sits on the kitchen table for two weeks while we figure out where we are going to put this monster. Finally, we use it. I heard angels singing that night. We got rid of our deep fryer years ago for health reasons. Frozen chicken wings, bacon wrapped jalepenos, chicken nuggets, and french fries all cooked very well, without grease splattering, or heating up my kitchen from using the convection oven. It works very well.

    I bought this 2 years ago. It still works well. Almost everything it cooks only takes 10 minutes. The basket is a pretty decent size for an air fryer, but I always want something bigger so I can cook multiple things for the family all at once. The controls are simple: a dial timer & a dial temperature. On my device, the timer needs to be turned to at least 10 minutes to make sure it doesn't shut off a couple minutes early. You can back it up to a shorter time after that if need be. The tray inside is non-stick, but some of that coating has peeled off in spots. I really like this air fryer. It's basic, but it works well that way. I just purchased a larger & digitally controlled Chefman air fryer, & I'm hoping it's even better than this one. It will be nice to be able to cook with 2 air fryers at the same time (hopefully that won't trip the circuit breaker). I would rate this one a 4.5 if I could. Great for what it is, but there are certainly "better" ones (my own preference) out there.

    This was our third air fryer purchase. We absolutely love air fry cooking! I purchased this for its large capacity and sale price. The fryer works fantastically and I love the dial for setting the time and temperatures instead of digital. The only negative for us is the design of the fryer basket. The basket has a removable plate at the bottom with drain holes and louver vents on the sides for airflow during cooking. The louvers allow fluids from cooking to spill out when you try to empty it and clean up after cooking. It can be messy after cooking a big batch of bacon!

    I thought it was a good product but if it can’t last a full year it’s not worth the price paid. The power xl I have is 2 yrs older but its the 2.4 L and this one I can feed the family. The first one laster 5.5 months before it died had the warranty and ordered a new own now 7 months later this one is going in the trash. Luckily I bought it on sale so $60 isn’t that hard to bare for 6 monthish of service without going to a fast food location. But when it was working burgers fries baked potato wings baked chicken all cooked well and was great for the summer months of not slaving in the kitchen and having a good wholesome meal

    CHEFMAN - 6.5 ANALOG AIR FRYER DOESN'T DISAPPOINT

    This is my first air fryer and I'm not disappointed! It's ANALOG, yes, however, I couldn't pass it up, as a Deal of the Day. It's fast cooking and easy clean up. I've already cooked numerous meats and even roasted cauliflower. My family loves everything that has been prepared in this 6L capacity air fryer. I highly recommend.

    My mother-in-law loves this fryer, she was able to cook sides and even main dishes that the whole family loves. Bigger basket can fit 4 large chicken breast and a whole basket of wings. One of the best things to add into her kitchen.
