Not the best
Bought this about 3 weeks ago. Not impressed. Cool wall technology is not cool. Manages to get oil everywhere.
Derek, 65 or over, Nantwich
Nice for the price.
Bought this to replace our old one that suddenly didn't want to work and kept tripping the sockets in the kitchen. This Russell Hobbs fryer is an absolute beauty for the price. Good size for cooking chips for two adults. Viewing window is large compared to others l looked at before opting for this one. Recommend it for the simplicity of use.

Russell Hobbs Maxi 2.5L Deep Fryer
I bought this item a month ago and it has filled the hole left by our previous cheap fryer that gave up the ghost. Great item of great quality, readily available from our local Argos

A family must have
This air fryer has proved to be an invaluable purchase for our large family. It is a very generous size to accommodate bigger portions of food. It saves us so much time when catering for various menu requests by the children. I don’t know how I managed before I bought it!

My family is over the moon that I bought this, can make so many different things, especially home made salt and pepper chicken and chips for my son

Brilliant fryer and easy to use!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m really impressed with the Russell Hobbs Maxi Fryer. It’s the perfect size for a family, with a deep basket that easily fits chips, chicken, fish, or doughnuts without overcrowding. The fryer heats up quickly and keeps a steady temperature, so food always comes out golden and crispy rather than soggy. Cleaning is a big plus for me — the removable bowl and lid make it much easier to wash up compared to other fryers I’ve had. The oil drains cleanly, and it doesn’t leave the kitchen smelling too much of oil, which is a bonus! Overall, it feels solid and well-made, looks smart on the counter, and does exactly what you want it to. If you’re after a reliable, family-sized fryer that’s easy to use and clean, this one’s a great choice

Great
I bought this 2 weeks ago it is great.

Works well
Bought this to replace a different make because the inner compartment didn’t lift out for ckeaning. Unfortunately this one doesn’t lift out either. Deep Fat Fryer works well but not looking forward to cleaning.

Handy and compact
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Perfect compact air fryer! Handy window on top to check your food, it holds a significant amount of food while being quite compact on the counter. Really easy to use and handy with the foldable handle that brings up/down the basket! Overall pretty happy with it

Hello Iron chef,
After checking with our supplier, they have advised for the Russell Hobbs Maxi 24570 2.5L Deep Fat Fryer - Black: ''As per the user manual: "Don’t use solid cooking oil, fat, butter, margarine, or olive oil. Olive oil generally contains too much water, and can be too smoky. Buy a good quality liquid cooking oil suitable for deep frying, like sunflower or corn oil."
So no, beef dripping should not be used in the unit.''
