Picked up last night.
Out of stock in a few local Kmarts but found piles of them it in a nearby K-hub.
Big enough for a couple salmon fillets, a large steak, a few chicken breasts etc.
Teflon got well tested last night and passed.
Well worth the 39 bucks.
You wouldn't happen to be a Sydney sider?
Coffee machines would always come into my Melbourne shop loaded with them
Well that's a phobia I didn't know I had. How do I make sure that never happens to me??
I have no idea how you can deter them… They like the heat and atmosphere in there. So gross. You can smell them a mile away
Probably still being investigated but no explanation is provided in this article for how the air fryer exploded when it was "not in use or turned on”.
keen to know the verdict as well since i also have a 3 years old kmart model….
Its obviously one of the many articles where no real information is what they want so they can run any headline they want without being in trouble for misleading information.
The reality is that an air fryer is a very simple device and can't actually "explode" and outside being accidentally turned on, nothing can happen to it.
You’re forgetting that 2023 is the year Sarah Connor warned us air fryers become sentient.
…oh
@whoknows Can you confirm it's from the Anko brand? This is the 5.3L model btw so even then.. I was considering this out but it's all sold out around me, wondering if I should consider the next one up. But if this is Anko branded, might pass..
Edit: Found that model still on the website and yes, it's Anko.. 😅 Maybe a lucky miss here.
Pretty hard to see in the pic, but by the looks of it they have had it sitting on a gas hotplate and probably switched on the wrong burner setting the air fryer alight. Find it hard to believe an appliance would self combust when it was "not in use or turned on”
Yeah that’s what I’d be investigating…
I’ve heard of other similar examples where one caught fire (not exploded) but on the bench top… You’re supposed to have them on a heat proof surface, and in all of the other examples I’ve seen, they weren’t. The surfaces around the air fryer heated up and caught fire after the air fryer was turned off. But people don’t connect the two and blame the air fryer, not user error.
why report on the incident until it is fully investigated by competent authorities? More crap, sensationalist journalism. I wonder about Australian media these days…….
I wonder about Australian media these days…….
I don't. I know it's shit and has been for quite some time. Either clickbait, fear mongering and sensationalism.
Murdoch is the problem
Ha, downvoters supporting news.com.au and Murdoch. Murdoch is the problem, along with Murdoch defenders.
Wonder why its on clearance.. Had this model for a year or so. Still working great. Fan is more powerful than the aldi one i use to have.. Cockroaches loved my aldi one…
