Chefman TurboFry® Touch Air Fryer, XL 8-Qt Family Size, One-Touch Digital Control Presets, French Fries, Chicken, Meat, Fish, Nonstick Dishwasher-Safe Parts, Automatic Shutoff, Stainless Steel

This review will not be complete because I have not yet cooked with the air fryer. I bought it to replace the one I have struggled with for years which frankly did more things than I needed and took a lot of time and energy to figure it out. If I want toast, I'll use my toaster. For the price I paid for that machine. I didn't expect the trays that came with it to react to the food and look disgusting and battered after one or two uses and the company would do nothing about it. I have a lot of appliances by that company, and I am slowly finding out that brand name does not mean goodcustomer service or an exemplary machine. It was not the greatest device as for the price and brand name. I expected a lot better. This new air fryer is very sturdy looking and came well packed on time. I watched it as directed and I'm waiting to order some food that I can cook in it. I have read the manual which is very straightforward and it seems that this will be exactly what I wanted: a sturdy uncomplicated machine that will hold a whole small chicken. Is that too much to ask? It is very attractive , sleek, and does not take up a lot of counter space. The basket slides in and out easily and it will be interesting to see how easy the machine works and how well it cooks the food. Stay tuned. THIS is a good, Basic machine that does exactly what you tell it to do without all the fancy trappings that I don't need. I followed the instructions for chicken wings, and they turned out perfect. Once the machine cooled down, it was very easy to wash out the basket. It takes up much less room on my counter yet the basket capacity is larger and I can put a whole Cornish hen in it. This is obviously the appliance for me, and I am very pleased with it so far.

I’ve been using the Chefman TurboFry Touch Air Fryer XL (8-Quart) for a few weeks now, and it’s made weeknight meals so much easier. The large capacity is perfect for our family—everything from French fries to chicken thighs cooks evenly and comes out with a satisfying crisp without needing a drop of oil. The presets on the digital touch screen make it easy to get started quickly, and I really like the built-in shake reminder, which keeps food from overcooking on one side. The moisture level is perfect and it doesn’t leave a smell.Cleanup is simple thanks to the nonstick, dishwasher-safe basket, and the stainless steel finish looks sleek on the counter. The unit stays relatively quiet during use and doesn’t overheat the kitchen like an oven. While the touchscreen can sometimes lag for a second or two, it’s nothing major. Overall, it’s a great value for the size, performance, and ease of use.

Works great. But you need another one because your cooking something it takes 30 minutes. Then something take 10 minutes. So you need to finish all at once. Or you will be eating something cold. Just a side note this thing sucks down some juice. So if you running 2 like I do just make sure there not on the same breaker it will trip.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Product is great but I'm disappointed in how amazon is treating its rural area customers and literally sending everything I order via USPS...No matter if I spend $6 or $6,000 it goes through the post office. Took over two weeks to get this air fryer to me even with prime membership....

out old fryer was pretty beat up so we bought this option and are enjoying it. The stainless steel look matches our appliances and the cooler is significantly quieter than our last one. We have been satisfied.

Worthy investment! Love how easy it is to use the air fryer. The material is very sturdy, way better than the plastic one I got from Walmart.

The first airfryer had to be returned due to faulty digital display (thus, the 4 stars). I received the replacement the next day. Used it for the first time this morning and was impressed how quiet it was. And, it looks great in my kitchen!UPDATE: I had a chance to use the air fryer several times and each time, the food came out perfect!. I've upgraded my review to 5 stars!

Got the smaller Chefman thinking it was big enough for two, but decided we needed this larger one. Now we use both to cook some meals. So much more efficient than turning on the oven and heating the house in the summer. Using the parchment liners means almost no clean up.
