Phillips Airfryer

Im sure you have all seen the adverts for this and i have been tempted as I do occasionally like chips and its good that it does not use oil. But at that price you must be joking, they can put it where the monkey puts his nuts.😱

Never seen this before...............

Quite fancy the tefal actifry, uses one spoonful of oil for 1kg of chips.........

amazon are doing it for 99, usually its 100-170........

Sounds a bit like the Tefal ActiFry, also pretty expensive, but I've heard very good reports about them 🙂

I just tend to have oven chips! 🙂

Amazon is a good price Argos have ?70 off but still ?129.99 😱

Sounds healthier than a traditional fryer.

It does use oil Gail but only a very small amount - unless you use it to cook oven chips which dont need oil because they already have some on.

I haven't got one but have considered it. I currently make my own fries with a bit of oil rubbed on and cooked in the oven. I cant seem to cope with oven chips, they always make my bs go up.

Anyway, I found a video of it in action for anybody wanting a shufty.

My friend has an actifry which caught fire. I do know that Watchdog also ran a feature on this problem. I have no idea whether actifry have now rectified that, but on reading reviews for the actifry, it doesnt seem to have a very long lifespan for an expensive piece of kit. The Phillips fryer I think is probably too new to find out about its longevity.
