Daewoo Deluxe 17L 1300W Halogen Air Fryer with an Extension Ring- 60min Timer with Self-Cleaning Function, Adjustable Temperature Control and 7 Accessories Included - Black

We have had this oven/air fryer long enough now to have tried out several recipes all with the intention of reducing our electricity costs. In this respect it is very successful cooking appliance, but as with all things, it is "horses for courses". This device will cook a full meal for two from raw ingredients with no real problems. It must be noted, however, that our Tefal Actifry is possibly more convenient for cooking chips as it has a paddle to move them, whereas you have to open this fryer to move them around a bit, but that really is no biggie and chips still taste way better than deep-fried ones!. Sausages cooked fine, but the skins were not, perhaps, as crispy as might have been (maybe a bit more experimentation with temperature here?). Vegetables all cooked fine, potatoes in a Pyrex casserole dish with a small amount of water, and even peas and broccoli cooked well, but they had to be placed in a foil packet with a teaspoon or two of water to effectively place them in a mini steamer. We fried onions in the bottom of the bowl and that worked out so-so with them being dried out a bit. Fish fingers and burgers cooked fine and were very tasty, so overall a splendid buy for the money. One thing not mentioned in any of the documentation is the oil sprayer included in the package, other to say it can be used to spray oil (use a high-temperature oil such as avocado as the temperatures in the device can be up to 250deg C). One thing that is necessary to do is to mix the oil with water in the ratio of 1 part oil to 5 parts water, and this is not mentioned anywhere! Without the water you just get a jet of oil and not a spray. Be sure to thoroughly shake up the oil and water together to make an emulsion before spraying over the food, then it all works fine!The bottom line? Well it can cook a meal for up to two people and save money compared to using a conventional oven (it cooks much quicker and most foods are ready in about 20-30 mins) with the rising costs of fuel this is a major reason for getting one! You do not have to cook everything in the one appliance, and if you prefer to cook some foods on a griddle or in another appliance, that is fine, but for oven and hotplate cooked foods, it is a great saving on electricity, and even re-heating foods it is in many ways better than a microwave as items such as pizza are not reduced to a soggy mess.

Love this . We solely use it instead if the oven. It's healthier and more cost effective.

The Daewoo Deluxe 17L Halogen Air Fryer is a great kitchen addition with plenty of cooking space, especially with the extension ring. The adjustable temperature control and 60-minute timer give good control, and the self-cleaning function is a huge time-saver.

We bought this to replace our previou drawer style air frier which failed.The shape and the size of the trays are very good to layout food so that they cook evenly. The glass body of the oven retains heat better and cooks food better than our previous fryer.The controls are very simple. Two mechanical rotating dials one for the timer and other for the temperature setting. None of the complicated electronic interfaces which can be fiddly to operate. There is a very robust feel to the controls and the whole oven feels well made due to its weight and the materials used in the construction.The only issue we found is the brightness of the halogen light. This is easy to resolve by moving the oven.If you are after a robust, simple to operate well made air fryer that can act as an oven as well, this is a very good choice.
