We have one, love it. If it's frozen and fried (ie french fries, shrimp, onion rings) it's a gimme it works well. That was not our main reason for buying it though. We have done 'fried' eggplant, chicken wings, a whole peri peri chicken, croutons, roasted chick peas, crab cakes, hamburgers, veggie burgers, all excellent. I do have two pieces of advice, do not get a Chefman and if you are cooking for more than 1-2 get the largest one you can. The one drawback is it takes about three times as long to air fry vs. deep fat fry and we have to do batches when we cook for us and the kids, a larger one would help with that.
