Bad points

Bad Points

  • Max crisp function is recommended for frozen foods such as nuggets and chips, however as you are unable to adjust the temperature setting, you'll need to keep a close eye on food as cooking time may need to be reduced.
  • No viewing window.
  • Fairly large sized unit, may be difficult to store.
  • Basket/drawer is only OK to wash in a domestic sink.
