First of all this is much bigger than I expected but it appears well made and has been easy to operate. I've tried making several different foods in it and it takes a little getting used to. The recommended times need adjusting to suit each item. I made frozen french fries and the first time they came out crisp but not CRISP. The second time I spritzed them with a little oil and they did come out crisp but not at all greasy. Meats are the same. You need to adjust the times. Some cook quicker than the recommended time and some need extra time. All in all I like it.
