Daughter is off to uni halls next year. 

 

Thought I would get her a cheap and simple airfryer as the kitchen will be v basic. 

 

Briscoes have a one day sale today pretty decent discount on airfryers ( I know they have a sale every week but this one looks a bit better for that specific item)

 

Any ones to avoid or recommend appreciated. Got till 9pm!

 

This is for an 18 yo who makes a mess in an empty room. Must be simple to use.

We have this one https://www.briscoes.co.nz/product/1093237/sunbeam-4-in-1-airfryer-and-oven-black-afp5000bk/

 

Probably overkill but a really good price. We can cook a whole meal in it and the rotating basket is great for chips.

Agree. 10l basket probably too big. Dont think the kitchenettes have loads of bench space.

IMHO none of those. The Kmart airfryers are actually really good and much cheaper.

 

Personally I have a Philips airfryer (we use ours daily) but my parents have the dual Kmart one and find it very good. It is also rated rather highly on Consumer.

An air fryer is just a benchtop fan oven so just get a decent benchtop oven and you've got an all-in-one device alongside the air fryer. What's your budget?

After looking at quite a few this is the one we bought. Need to have a bit of space behind it to allow the heat to escape. The rotating basket ids very good though fiddly to get in an out and to open when hot.

I got the Russell Hobbs $299.99 gets the job done. However, last month it died on its 23rd month. Got it replaced with a new one.

 

If I need to buy again, I'll probably try the 9L dual k-mart. Next

Really happy with our Instant pot. The Air fryer works well, and it can also be used for pressure cooking, sautéing, steaming, slow cooking, sous vide-ing, and warming food.

I really dislike kmart in general, but we got given one of those $69 air fryers that Michael linked to earlier, and it's actually fantastic. I thought they were just another of those fad type appliances that would get used twice & then left, but we use it every other day.
