Ensemble friteuse ActiFry de T-Fal avec coupe-frites et moulin à épices

Great appliance for the kitchen.

I've owned mine for over a year.

I've cooked a few things in it. The french fries turn out exactly the way you like them. From soft to very crunchy - that depends on the minutes you set it at. The coating can be tossed in just spices for an extra crisp tossed in beated egg and flour/spice mixture.....amazing.

It cooks only 4 chicken legs maybe 5 and the skin is very crunchy. Makes the best sitr fry in 15 min only 2 tsp of oil. My favorite is onions, peppers and shredded carrots. It cooks and browns brussels sprouts and broccoli very well but it's best you boil them first to soften them up a bit (few minutes). A very nice fried cooked vegetables.....

Recipes are amazing on the internet ESPECIALLY the chicken wings!!

Unfortunately, whatever you make in it, makes enough for only 2 people.

It is bulky and a good 18" so it takes up some space on the counter. It is light weight and very easy to wash and clean up. It cools down very quickly. So if you have a few things on the go - its best to put them on a cookie sheet in the oven on low heat.

Whatever you make in it, smells up the room beautifully and you know that your eating foods that are very healthy because you are using less oils or forms of oil that restaurants and your mother used....

Easy, tasty and convenient way to make fries. Better than many take out fries done the 'full fat'way.
The thing is bulky, but I'll be using it once or twice a week. The results I got with this machine were better than I expected.

This is the best gadget i have ever owned. We now have french fries at least once a week and don't worry about health issues. It cleans up so easily that it is a pleasure to use. My daughter also has one and is equally impressed.

I tried out the acufryer vs my non stick pan

One package of 8 chicken thighs prepared with the skin on
same seasoning - no oil - four in each pan - acufryer set for
30 mins.
I turned the chicken in the non stick pan twice.

When the acufryer beeped I turned off the pan on the stove.
Both batches of thighs had reached 86 degrees C.
I measured the fat there was the same amount in both pans.

The skin from the acufryer was crisper but the reason to use the
acufryer was to use less fat. I would remove the skin after cooking.
The flavor was the same in each batch.
The texture was better in the pan fried batch. A little less dry.

The acufryer was very easy to clean but it still took longer to clean
vs the non stick pan,splatter screen and tongs.

I also tried frozen fries they took longer then my convection oven
and turned out the same.

I assumed that I would find a notable difference in the amount of fat, when there was no difference I see no advantage in owning it.

Sorry but the investment is not worth it.
