Manufacturers Description

The Tefal Actifry is a revolutionary new product which allows you to enjoy tasty, traditional, home cooked chips, but at the same time stay healthy and feel good about what you are eating.

The Actifry is part of the Nutritious & Delicious range from Tefal which aims to produce innovative products for people searching for healthier ways to cook without compromising on taste.

By using just one spoonful of oil you can make 1kg of homemade chips, which is enough to feed a family of four. That one spoonful is 100 times less than a traditional deep fat fryer, which not only means that your food is substantially more healthy, but it is also more economical and is also 100% safe, unlike some traditional methods of frying.

Simply load up to 1kg of freshly cut chips into the Actifry, drop in a measure of your preferred oil using the spoon provided and set the timer, the Actifry does the rest, just wait for the timer to end and the alarm to sound.

Tefal Actifry

The Tefal Actifry requires no pre-heating, its ready when you are, and better yet, it's not just chips you can cook. The versatile Actifry allows you to cook a range of foods including meat, fish, stir fried vegetables, frozen chips and more. A recipe book is included for more ideas.

The Actifry has an odourless filter which means that your kitchen will stay as fresh as it was when you started cooking.

The steam free lid and viewing window means that you can always keep an eye on your food, although with the food being constantly but gently stirred by the mixing arm, all you need to do is add you ingredients and let them cook. The mixing arm also ensures even cooking of your food.

The automatic lid opens at the push of a button for your convenience.

Tefal Actifry - Everything except the base is dishwasher safe

Once you finished cooking your food, the cover, basket and vanes can all be removed and are all dishwasher-safe. That’s everything you need to wash up taken care of.

You can then sit and enjoy real chips, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, safe in the knowledge that they only contain 3% fat.

Don't use the recipe's ......................good at Chips only (2008-08-30)

Worked fine with chips , then I tried one of the recipe's. Due to the cumbersome design of the blade fitting on the central spindle , leaving one in doubt as to whether it was attached correctly , the sauce oveflowed and burnt out the heating unit.I would not buy another and I think the design needs some serious rethinking, for Tefal this is a very poor product.Ok for chips , no good for the recipe's provided.

tefal actifry (2008-08-28)

absolutely brilliant machine, my father bought one, aswell as myself, and i have been losing weight since buying it!everything that comes out is tasty, and low fat, ive done all sorts, from chicken portions, chips and casserole, there is no boundaries, i adore this machine, and it cooks food well and very quickly...fantastic!!!

Tefal ActiFry a little gem....... (2008-08-21)

I purchased my ActiFry from Costco for about £103 and I still thought that was expensive for what it is. Although this fryer is good I don't think I could justify paying £150 for it. I always use olive oil for everything and this fryer is no exception. It makes great chips, really tasty and that's without any seasoning...going to try nut oil next time! It's so easy to use and only two parts need to be removed for cleaning purposes and these are dishwasher safe. It's quite large so you will need to find a good size drawer or shelf for this fryer although it's not heavy which is a bonus. One thing to be aware of... in the middle of making chips I also threw in some scampi pieces and when the fryer had finished some of the bread crumbs had come off during the cooking process so it looks like it doesn't like a combination of items which may crumble easily. Oh and 1KG of chips goes a long way probably enough for three medium sizes portions. I love the idea of placing the chips in this fryer and safely walking away for 35 mins....brilliant!!! I'm not one for buying items which I consider gimmicks but I was surprised at how good this frier is.

Really good. (2008-08-16)

I really like this. I don't find it particularly bulky, in fact it is less bulky than some deep fryers and definitely easier to keep clean. Looks much nicer on your counter top! I used frozen chips in it for it's first use, they turned out really well. There was some breakage of the chips as the paddle turned round, but this gave crispy edges to the finished product so no real complaint there. My only negative comment here is that it does not seem very resilient, ie the plastic lid and some ohter bits seem a little cheap and brittle. My ham-fisted husband will need careful instruction on how to treat it :) Other than that, I am very pleased with it and I am looking forward to trying other foods in there. I particularly like how you turn it on and it doesn't need constant attention like fryers do, although as the previous reviewer stated, the alarm is pretty quiet. I use a separate alarm so I can hear it in another room. All in all, a great buy and I will definitely be using it a lot, so I hope the plastic holds up!

Gr8 Buy (2008-08-16)

This is a considered purchase due to the price (this is by far the cheapest i've seen) but it's fantastic. I have turned into a chef since it arrived. No problems to work, clean or store it. the food tastes gr8 and i have tried loads of new stuff (recipe book) and loved it all. If you can afford it buy it.
