Actuate 26L 5-in-1 Air Fryer Microwave Oven – 2400W Combination Oven with Grill, Bake, Reheat, Defrost – One Touch Cooking, Accessories Included, Space-Saving Kitchen Appliance – Black

Pros: I'm very happy with the top basket, particularly as it gives lovely crispy chips and can fit a regular sized pizza (just need to trim less than 1 cm on one edge to fit comfortably). I put tinfoil under the pizza with the edges protruding up so that it is easy to lift out. It is easy to use, very sturdy and easy to wash the top basket. The basket is slightly over 9 inches square and just over 3 inches high which is much better that most of the much more expensive air fryers. The wider the area the easier it is to spread the food and get crispy results. The other fryers are narrower and higher so the chips are stacked more. The synchronised timer for the top and bottom compartments works very well It gives much crisper results than I had with my old Black Tower air fryer. I think that it is very good value for money compared to some of the much more expensive options. The lower oven does give more options for cooking styles but is a bit on the small side and slower. Cons: I'm not sure about the little oven underneath, as it is not a basket, it is more difficult to access or clean. You need to pull out the shelf like you would an oven shelf. The effective cooking area is about 8.5 x 9 inches with only 2 inches height for food. It doesn't fit the pizza, but does fit a toasted sandwich. It's just necessary to allow more time for cooking.

Although slightly bigger than a normal microwave depth-wise, it works really well. Spinning dial feels a bit light and has no feedback but apart from that feels solid. Looks good and build quality so far very good. Love the big plate area inside. Air fryer basket a bit annoying to clean due but I'll figure out a way eventually. As a microwave, it does the job perfectly, I've had nice even heating so far and it heats food very quickly despite only being rated 900W. The interface is easy, just click the button and you get 30 seconds, press a few more times you keep adding 30s or just spin the dial. Not all microwaves are like that surprisingly but very happy to see. Can also do the manual power select+time, defrost and some other options. As an air fryer, I've had mixed experiences so far but probably mostly my fault. Frozen foods haven't been coming out at the right temp but ive been putting the temperature up to 200 for things rather than the normal air fryer 20 degree decrease relative to recommended. Will keep trying before complaining and update! Haven't really tried fryer presets since I don't want to have to keep the book nearby and keep looking through it, but might also be good to try for experimentation. Overall though, I'm happy it works as a microwave and seems promising on the air fryer front if i get the timing and temps right. Definitely better than the fanless oven i had to suffer with! Overall happy. Tldr: positives: nice quality, good microwave, big area, decent fryer. Negatives: presets annoying to look through, cheap dial, need to experiment with cooking times and temps for fryer

Generally a good overall product either as a microwave, airfryer, or fan oven. For such a device it is compact and needs less space on each side and the back than other manufacturer's equivalent products that I researched. There should be more specifications on the Amazon page about certain details. For example, the airfryer / fan oven max temperature is 230 C and the maximum timer that can be set is 95 minutes. The microwave output is 850 to 900 watts. The instruction manual is okay but it could be much better. There is no grill function but this can be done using the airfryer function. So far I have tried airfrying duck legs and a spatchcock chicken. Both came out beautifully cooked in significantly less time than had I cooked them in a conventional fan oven, and the skin was deliciously crispy - I did put some olive oil on the skin. Frozen potato rosti from Waitrose also came out well but needed turning over half way through for the best results and without using any oil. According to the instructions booklet the max chicken that can be fried is 1.2 Kg but if you spatchcock it (which is quick and simple see YouTube videos) I was easily able to airfry a 1.5 Kg chicken and would imagine even a 1.8 Kg one would be possible, if spatchcocked. The main control knob works well but it does feel a little plasticky. I'm sure a top quality one would have cost only £2 more + profit margin and would have elevated the product considerably. After 3 months use: A couple of little niggles: 1. The "Keep Warm" function is set at 140C and cannot be adjusted. This is too hot for most uses. A software tweak could allow this to be made adjustable, say from 50C to 140C. Please do that Daweoo. 2. The bake function does not cook pizza well as the toppings and cheese are overcooked and the middle of the dough base is too soft. The only way to solve this is to preheat the oven then cover the top of the pizza with aluminium foil and bake for about 8 to 10 minutes and then remove the foil and continue baking for about another 4 to 5 minutes or until it looks done. This is for pizzas that are cooked directly on the middle oven shelf in a conventional oven. Using this method it's necessary to secure the foil either under the pizza or with a couple of all metal dessert spoons resting on the foil otherwise the foil blows upwards with the power of the internal fan. A few hours after I bought the product on Amazon I saw it £20 cheaper in the high street. I tried to cancel as it had not been dispatched but I received a message saying it was not possible, but that I could refuse to accept it when it was delivered to my home. I was in all day and the delivery did not ring my number but must have rang another number in the building & left it in the building entrance and sent a photo to me on Amazon. This meant I was unable to not accept it. That is very sneaky and underhand so I have docked a star.

Great item. Easy to use. Draw is a really good size. Like that the draw can be used a 1 whole one or 2 separate.

Had my last Daewoo halogen oven for 6 years and used it daily , until the timer stopped working. As I really liked my last one I purchased another one . The only difference with this one is that it has a safety catch when you close the lid . That does look a little bit flimsy but as I’m the only one who uses it , I will take care when I use it ! The oven itself heats up so quickly and I find it much better than my main oven . It is easy to clean ( although I use a tray in the bottom to catch any drips to save on the washing of the glass bowl ) I hope this one lasts as long as the last one I had as it’s amazing!

There are no complaints about the work of the airfryer yet. I removed the ball because there was no protective film. It was seen that the film was removed.
