Lidl selling Salter EK5728 Fuzion Dual Air Fryer €50 off RRP

Just picked one up in Portmarnock, 3 left there now. They seem to be out of stock in most other stores in Dublin. Just in case anyone is still looking for one. Also, they're doing a Daewoo one next week for similar money but I don't know how it compares...

After testing mine for a few weeks, I'm happy enough. The cons for me are:

Difficult to wash the dual bucket because it is so big
Slower cooking than my 5 year old tower by 20-25%, presumably because of bigger basket and divider leaking out heat.
I can't see anyway to figure out when pre-heating is done
Control panel was designed by a sociopath

For folks thinking about buying an air fryer:

Make sure it has a detachable basket.

I had one like the photo above where there is no detachable basket. Massive piece of shyte. You can't dump things out onto a plate (unless you want a load of black burnt bits and a load of grease on top of your food)

So you have to grab the items one by one and take them out. With a tongs or something.

Ideally you want to throw your chips out like you see them do in McDonalds. This is why the basket system is better. Takes 1 second vs ages picking things out manually.

So, check the air fryer before you buy. Usually you can see a little button on the handle which means you can detach the basket.

None of the air fryers in this thread have this. So don't buy them.

I am sure people will come along and say everything is fine. Same response I get everywhere. But these people have all spent lots of money on the shytty non-detachable basket type and are stuck with it, so they try to defend it and justify their purchase.
