Product Description
Manufacturers Description
 | The UK's best-selling fryer* Enjoyed by more than three million households world-wide, the Tefal ActiFry is the best-selling fryer in the UK. The ActiFry is a revolutionary 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. |
| Healthy, perfect chips with just three per cent fat** By using just one spoonful of oil, you can make one kilogram of golden, crispy home-made 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 healthier, but cooking is also more conomical and 100% safe. Simply load up to one kilogram 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. |  |
 | Patented technology - even cooking and no odours The ActiFry has a patented hot air system and unique stirring paddle to ensure evenly-cooked food. There’s no need to shake or stir during cooking. The ActiFry is temperature controlled for the best crispy chips every time, and since it requires no pre-heating, it's ready when you are. The ActiFry also has an odourless filter and fresh oil is used each time, which means that your kitchen will stay as fresh as it was when you started cooking. Versatile It’s not just chips you can cook. The versatile ActiFry allows you to cook a range of foods from fresh and frozen, including sausages, chicken, fish, stir fried vegetables, frozen chips and more. A free recipe book is included, to give you that inspiration you need when creating the perfect, healthy meal. Why not try turkey breast with three peppers or a chilli con carne, and for dessert cinnamon apples. |
Timer
The ActiFry features a timer, which can be set for up to 99 minutes. A warning “ready” alarm at the end of the cooking period will let you know when your food is cooked, so you can just sit back and relax while you wait.
Convenient, safe and easy to use
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 automatic lid opens at the push of a button for your convenience.
When opened, the ActiFry will automatically stop until you close the lid again. An easy grip handle means you can safely remove the pan and serve your food.
Dishwasher safe
Once you finished cooking your food, the cover and pan can all be removed and are all dishwasher safe. The non-stick coating on the pan also means any leftover food comes off easily with no fuss.That’s everything you need to wash up taken care of.

About Tefal
Tefal owes its origins to Frenchman Marc Grégoire, an engineer and keen fisherman. Monsieur Grégoire wanted the reel on his rod to run more smoothly, and experimented in the 1950s to see if a non-stick coating would work. It did, but it was his wife Collette who made the real breakthrough, suggesting the coating would be more useful in making cookware easier to use and clean. Now, Tefal is the number one name in non-stick products and small appliances, operating in more than 120 countries.Tefal remains committed to making household tasks easier and cooking results better, through a constant flow of new ideas, technology and innovation. Examples of that cutting-edge innovation can be seen in the ActiFry, the AirBake baking range and Tefal's unique Thermo Spot, which ensures your pans are always the perfect temperature to start cooking.

Be very Careful when it reaches 14 months plus,
By
This review is from: Tefal ActiFry FZ700015 Low Fat Electric Fryer, 1 kg Capacity, White (Kitchen & Home)
I bought one of these 21 months ago and was delighted with it. Chips were great even oven ready ones cooked evenly and crispy.Then one day whilst cokking chips I was alerted to a burning plastic smell. I detected the source, the Actifry was melting, it was glowing red and black smoke poured from it and some flames started to appear. I switched off at the mains. it terrifies me to think what might have happened if i had not been in the kitchen at the time. I went on the web to track down Tefal to report the problem and was amazed at the number of reports of the Actifry catching fire, it was even reported on Watchdog as being a problem. Tefals response so far has been we can sell you another one for 30% discount or give you an address where you can get it repaired (at my expense). Please please if you are going to purchase this be very careful, especially if you have children around.

Real chips again,

This review is from: Tefal ActiFry FZ700015 Low Fat Electric Fryer, 1 kg Capacity, White (Kitchen & Home)
Like a couple of the other reviewers I haven't deep-fried a chip for years because of the smell and mess of a traditional deep fat fryer, never mind the dangers of the old style chip pan.I actually first found out about this product by watching the Gadget Show and was blown away by the idea. First thing I did was check out the Internet for reviews and much to my surprise it seemed like the real deal. If it's getting praise on the Delia Smith forums you know you're onto a winner. I've been using it for a couple of weeks now and it's been a joy. So far I've done wedges, chunky cut unpeeled chips and skinnier peeled chips. The chunky unpeeled chips were my favourite - delicious with garlic and herb dip. The trouble with wedges being that they have too many points and edges which with the constant tumbling leads to "chipping" as they crisp. I've also used it to cook Aunt Bessies frozen chips and it does a far better job than the oven and only takes about 25 minutes. Don't add extra oil when doing frozen chips! I haven't tried anything exotic meatwise, just some thin sausages. Throw them in at the same time as skinny chips or a little later with chunkier ones. Top it off with some onion at 15 mins to go and mushrooms for the last five minutes. Straight to the plate and slap a fried egg on top. Bliss. On the bad side it is pretty noisy and takes up about a foot by a foot and half of bench space but it's so easy to keep clean I just stow it in it's box on top of the cupboard when I'm not using it. And because there aren't a couple of pints of boiling oil being used I'm confident enough to just set it tumbling and go and watch TV/read a book/work on my opera while it does its stuff. This is the first kitchen gadget I've bought for ages that's actually exceeded my expectations.

Superb but did not last long enough,
By
This review is from: Tefal ActiFry FZ700015 Low Fat Electric Fryer, 1 kg Capacity, White (Kitchen & Home)
Wonderful chips, If there are any critisism it is that the timer buzzer is faint and not very audible over the actifry when running, also it would be helpful if the timer turned it off. However sill a superb piece of cook ware.UPDATE I have now used for a few weeks and am still impressed however a few minor comments, For things like mince you can not leave it unatended but have to stir occasionaly (to be fair it does say this in the book) also the paddle stains easily (again in the book) however the thing to be most careful of is locking the paddle in place, you soon know if you have not as it makes about 4 times the noise and any sauce leaks through to under the pan (only did this once) UPDATE 15th OCTOBER 2009 Still working well I have added this update as people have complained about it being fragile. The only thing that has broken is a clip that holds the metal mesh filter in place on looking at this closely I can not understand how they expected it to last, however the mesh still stays in place. No problem with other aspects of it although I agree it looks very fragile. UPDATE 25th November 2010 Just went pop and packed up on inspection the element had blown. So the life is not very impressive and I am dropping the *rating to 3
