Chefman Digital 3 5 Quart Touch Screen Air Fryer Oven w Space Saving Flat Basket Healthy Oil-Free Airfryer

I have a vision problem that makes it difficult to use products with a touch screen. I have a smaller air fryer which is a different brand, but wanted a larger model to cook more food. I purchased a different air fryer with a larger capacity, but found that due to its touch screen, I was unable to use it. I ordered the Chefman airfryer hoping it would be usable. I am excited to say that it fit the bill perfectly. I am able to set the controls independently, and can fry larger quanities of food. I have used it for french fries, chicken strips and to fry catfish. I have only had it for four days. I find it easy to clean, and it cooks faster than my other fryer. The flat basket has fallen out one time when emptying the fryer, but I believe that this was because I was tapping the fryer pan on the side to insure everything was out. By the way, I have purchased many items on Amazon, but this is the first review I have written. I appreciate the simplicity and accessibility of the airfryer's operation. Read more

While we are far from the pinnacles of health when it comes to our dietary choices, we do not own a fryer because it's been one small thing we omit to pretend we're somewhat healthy. One of my coworkers has been raving about her air fryer, and I just didn't think we'd have much use for it. That all changed when my mom found one of those "buy a suspiciously large bag of chicken wings for an exceptionally low price" deals. We read a lot of reviews, chose this one, and gave it a try. It had a slight plastic odor to it, but it went away after a quick wipe down and a wash of the basket and tray. I initially threw in 5 frozen chicken wings to get a sense of how it worked. About 22 minutes later, we had these exceptionally juicy-on-the-inside but crispy-on-the-outside chicken wings. They were delightful! Batch #2 was a single layer of chicken wings, but I packed it full. That batch needed closer to 26 minutes on 390, turning twice in between, and they came out just as well as the first batch did. I decided to push it a little further for Batch #3, and I filled the bin up with wings. That batch took over 30 minutes to cook, but with a few solid shakes here and there, everything still got delightfully crispy. We were surprised at how much chicken fat collected under the tray. This is a good thing, because that meant we weren't eating it. We let the fat solidify a bit, gave it a good wipe, and threw it in the dishwasher for a good wash. We used it again the following night to toast a few different types of bread, and those all came out well too. Since we live in the Northern US, I can see us using this primarily as a fryer substitute or in the heat of summer. For the winter months, we'll probably stick to the oven because we don't mind the heat, and we can keep some counter space open too. All-in-all, I recommend it and am glad we finally got one. Give it a try! Read more

I bought this less expensive and non-digital version of the Chefman Airfryer, half the cost. I didn't want to spend much money on something I didn't know if I would like or use much. I did buy the large family size because I didn't want to be limited by what I could put in it, and it's a good size. I can fit a round 8" cake pan in it if I want to make a little cake of casserole for myself without heating up the house with the oven in the summer. I also bought parchment papers but I don't really think they are necessary for this particular style of airfryer because the bottom isn't mesh and food doesn't get stuck. It is a removable teflon coated bottom with holes in it that allow the air to circulate. This model isn't complicated to use, it has like an egg time you set and a temperature dial. That's it. It would be easy for most anyone to use. You can make everything in it that would go either in an oven or fryer, as long as it fits. Food doesn't have to be in a single layer either, to cook right. It's a simple and very good way to make small meals. Also, for snacks or side dishes. So far I have made frozen sweet potato french fries, tater tots, vegetable egg rolls and a grilled cheese sandwich, with no oil except for some coconut oil spread on the bread for the sandwich. No, the timer doesn't pause when you open the food drawer, and if the food is finished before the time is up I just leave the basket slightly ajar (the machine turns off when the drawer is open) to start cooling down and the timer shuts off when ready. Clean up is super easy, hot soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge. I recommend this same model to others, it's worth it. Read more

I've owned this air fryer a couple of years now. It's still doing an excellent job of cooking. I use it almost daily for cooking frozen chicken nuggets for the kids I take care of (work). My husband uses it a few times a week to cook potatoes, chicken, we've used it to cook turkey breast, round steak, brussel sprouts... I like the quick cooking and ease of use. I don't like cleaning it. Supposedly, you can put the whole basket in the dishwasher. I have, a couple of times on the top rack. But there are some screws in that basket that I don't trust not to rust. The removable grate doesn't get completely clean in the bottom rack even, using Cascade Platinum Plus on hottest setting. So it's beginning to look like my non-stick baking sheets in spots. I hand wash both pieces and wipe out the inside with a wet paper towel. The non-stick coating has scrubbed off in a few small spots and the bare metal shows through. We do not spray anything on the basket or grate. (no cooking spray or oil) Read more
