Pros & Cons
Pros
Tefal fryer is easy to use and easy to clean. Cleaning is easy by popping the basket and fry pan in the dishwasher. The pan, lid and basket can all be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Great deep fat fryer. Makes great chips, fried fish and chicken. Makes lovely fish & chips.
Loved the stylish lines of this product. Great value for money. Good size for storage.
Cons
I have to say the aldi one was more solid and seemed better made. This seems very flimsy, and despite the apparent size, doesn’t cook a large quantity of chips - certainly not the 5 portions advertised. Problem with the lid not fitting over the basket... Read More
Very disappointed with this. Returned for a refund. It is much too small to be of any practical family use. Don't waste your money on this nt.
Highlights
Quality
Easy to use and clean can’t fault this product
Easy to clean, just dismantle and put in the dishwasher (except the bit with the plug atached).
Not cleaned it yet but with the non stick liner it should clean easily.
Price
The quality and usability is great the price is perfect…the food is always well done and it’s also really quick and easy to clean
Competitiveness
Great value & better still its a tefal.
This is smaller than my old tefal pro fry but holds enough for the two of us.
Bought to replace another tefal fryer with oils drain novelty that was just too manky despite being cleaned once a month.

Chips much nicer than oven chips

It has a viewing window but to be honest the window’s not really very useful because the steam mists up the window rendering it useless

Annoyingly it’s really difficult to see the maximum fill line it’s very important not to overfill the machine because it would be a fireburn risk if the oil bubbled up over the edge of the machine when lowering the food

I think it would be safer if the oil container was taller because despite not overfilling the oil or basket when lowering the basket the oil rises very close to the top which is a bit disconcerting

The basket is a nice size but it doesn’t have an upright resting position so that you could raise the basket to allow some of the oil to drain from the food before completing removing the basket i have a baking tray covered with kitchen roll beside the deep fat fryer and place the wire basket containing the cooked food onto that to allow the food to drain a little

I filter the oil before decanting it back into the bottle if you don’t filter the oil the bits that gets left in the oil will quickly discolour the oil and burn resulting in the need to replace the oil more frequently
