Tefal ActiFry Low Fat Electric Fryer

Had two now, found food to be excellent potatoes, vegatables, meat in all forms, but will not buy another one due to them both breaking on the catches for the lid, same fault both times!!!!!!!!

This item is awful, it is incredibly dangerous. It was featured on BBC's watchdog on Monday 3rd Novemeber and TEFAL have confirmed that over 200 items have set on fire - mine being one of them. This is a dangerous product. DO NOT BUY IT.

on 3rd november 2008 BBC watchdog reported of a fault with the fryer in that the fan stops working and the heating element burns out.Tefal are ignoring the issue and claim all is well,and wont recall.
221 fryers have gone up in sparks and smoke.
this 0.4% of the total sold.
I am trying to get a refund as dont believe item is safe.
Buy at your own risk.

I brought this product a couple of weeks ago i agree totally with "Unimpressed" review. How do you cook home made fresh Fish in Batter eg. You cant its rubbish... Try steaming your food learn to cook properly rather than healthy fry???!!

Tefal Actifry. All good items produced from the Actifry. Double cooked chips are best - very professional. Sausages - when cooking sausages it would be beneficial to have a drain for the fat, which comes out of the sausages,to go through. The drain could be operated open/shut from the side of machine, for when you put the sausages first into the Actifry. I do not like the way the sausages lie in the fat whilst rotating. They cook beautifully - but the fat !!?!!
