We bought this after the mass of advertising Tefal slapped across television, magazines, posters, the internet and pretty much anywhere else they could put their logo. We thought that the fact that you could fry chips using just a single spoon of oil to be very innovative and a great feature. So, the most important aspect of ...  Read the complete review

The acti-fry is a machine that is primarily designed for making your chips healthier. Oven chips are healthier as they are not cooked in fat just baked in the oven with the fat needed to cook them already being in the chips when you buy them. These I find are fine but they do miss that home cooked feel and can be a little ...  Read the complete review

My partner and me have just purchased our first house together and so we have bought a few gadgets for the kitchen. One in particular we couldn't live without is the "Tefal Actifry". We have both been avoiding chips for a while now because we are trying our best to be healthier. So chips before the 'Actifry' were a no go. As ...  Read the complete review

Obesity is a growing problem in the Western world. As we increase the strain on our waistlines, we also increase strain on our hearts and ultimately, on our public health services. Up until recently, my diet has been pretty appalling. After keeping a food diary for a week as part of a project I was doing, I was stunned to realise all the ...  Read the complete review

The product is the key to removing all that resentment. This fryer has the goal of cooking foods such as chips in a new healthier way, I'm usually not very good at ...  Read the complete review

Years back when I was a teenager I used to eat what I wanted and was a perfect size 10. Now at 33 the pounds have crept on and I can no longer eat what I want without piling on the pounds. I have to watch what I eat and am conscious of calories and fat in my food. So when I saw this advertised on the television one evening I decided to ...  Read the complete review

I first saw the Tefal Actifry on a shopping channel early one morning when I couldn't sleep. Every time flick I through the TV I'm always drawn in by something they are selling (last week I was nearly the owner of a wig). Being someone who struggles with their weight the Tefal Actifry sounded amazing, I could have homemade ...  Read the complete review

I first saw the Tefal Actifry on one of the shopping channels, and I thought it was over priced (around £200 at the time) for something that just makes healthy chips. However, I went to the Good Food Show and they had a stand showing the other things you can cook with the Actifry and I was enticed. So what is the Actifry? It ...  Read the complete review

Sometimes I want to have a dinner that is simple to cook and yet one that my husband and I are going to enjoy. This is probably why my Mum picked me up this Tefal Actifry for Christmas 2011. I had been admiring them for a while and felt that the price tag was a little high yet naturally I was incredibly pleased when I opened my largest ...  Read the complete review

I love this machine it looks space age but the best bit is it makes healthy chips. Its called an acti fryer. It doesn't use no oil but it uses very little oil when compared to any other form of cooking chips (bar the oven of course but I can't stand oven chips they are dry and tasteless and don't resemble a chippie chip in the ...  Read the complete review

I try not to eat chips too often because it's not a healthy thing to do, certainly not if they are deep fried. I have never had a chip pan or an electric fryer for this reason. I was persuaded to buy the Tefal Actifry Low Fat Electric Fryer after seeing a cooking demonstration in a shopping mall in Manchester. I couldn't believe that ...  Read the complete review

My husband got us the Actifry when we just got married. I didn't feel I needed it at the time, but now I am glad he bought it. It really does what it says, 'deep frying' things with very minimal oil. As we are trying to be more healthy, this low fat fryer helps us with the cooking immensely. It consists of a pan with a paddle that moves ...  Read the complete review

By using just one spoonful of oil, you can make one kilogram of golden, crispy home-made chips, which taste great and are good for you. The fact that your food is cooked by the use of 'air' is so much better for you than a usual deep fat frier where you dunk your chips in oil, and no matter how much you try, your chips are still ...  Read the complete review

After seeing this fryer advertised on TV I was determined to buy one straight away as I find there is nothing nicer than fresh homemade chips! Yum. When I went online to do some research at first I must admit I was slightly surprised at ...  Read the complete review

The tefal actifry is amazing!! Using only one table spoon of oil it can make your choice of chips with a capacity of 1 kilo of chips(enough for a family of 4-5), both fries or fat chips. A massive advantage of this is that it is easy to clean as it doesn't contain a gallon of oil which then needs to be thrown in the drain which also ...  Read the complete review
