Chefman - 12-in-1 Air Fryer Oven with Probe Thermometer

We purchased one of these recently and have been happy so far. Haven't done a ton of air frying but for toasting, reheating, roasting smaller things it's worked well. Did just try to do wings with the air fryer function, but they didn't come out very crispy. Would love to hear some tips or tricks to get wings crispy with this unit. I had done some research and it may be a matter of having to let them dry out in the fridge overnight, even though I did dry them as well as I possibly could and even applied some cornstarch. On a side note, we have air fried bacon in it and have LOVED that.

I love mine. Great for most of the frozen Costco stuff, especially the frozen pizzas.

That happened and the display lost some sections - and the heating elements were dying. I liked the dial for adding time when it worked. The Chefman fails at this.

If something needs more time, just rotate the dial a bit. Great feature

If you want a toaster oven that pretends to be a bunch of things this is good. If you want an air fryer this is expensive and not great at air frying

Did yours have the issue with the setting dial just going crazy? Ours broke and it’s like spin the wheel each morning and hope eventually I get toast. Or move it like I’m preforming heart surgery so it doesn’t skip 3 ahead. Looks like a common issue with that model. Trying to decide if I replace it or just keep playing the game. The rest seems to work fine. ( No replacement parts available)

Good to know. I don't know that I've used the dial for adding time before. I use to set time like airfry fishsticks @ 450 for 10 minutes. I assume it would do that or ??

Mine is super easy, the basket itself is basically a solid non-stick and everything just wipes clean. The tray in the basket is a little harder because of the air slots, but still easy.

Just bought it, used it to make a toast this morning. It’s great for that 🤣

Our oven has been broken since we moved into our house (5 years ago, our kitchen is an ancient design challenge to say the least 🙃) , and we just added this to our mix. We’ve made beef roasts, whole chickens, veggies and baked goods. A cheesecake we made turned out weird, but I’m chalking that up to my husband being a cheapo and buying store brand cream cheese instead of Philly lol. As others have said, the air fryer mode isn’t the best. It’s great for reheating and crisping up leftover pizza too!

In your situation I would totally just go with an oven-style air fryer (essentially a mini convection oven). I got mine at Best Buy a few years ago on sale for $99. Brand is Chefman. It’s about the same size as my microwave. It came with a few different racks and a baking sheet, which was nice since I’d have struggled to find pans that fit otherwise. I haven’t been cooking much lately thanks to depression but I’ve made some great stuff in it.
