Salter EK4548 Dual Air Fryer - Double Drawer, 2 XL Non-Stick Cooking Trays, Sync & Match Cook Function, Independent Cooking, 8.2L, Sensor Touch Display, 12 Presets, Oil Free, 2200W-2600W, Black/Silver

I brought this when Electricity prices went high, in the hopes it would save money. What I have found so far is its great for cooking stuff without having to pre-heat the oven. If you are like me, I turn on the oven go do something and it could be 50 min before I remember the oven is on, and by that time the item would have been cooked twice over. So yes has saved me money on Electricity. Easy to use, turn on, select what side you want to use, I click on the manual button and set time and temp and its away it goes. It beeps to tell me when its finishing, so ideal for checking and extending the time if needed. Has programs but I haven't used them at all. I purchased separately some Silicone Tray Liners, which fit fine and can really be scrubbed clean so no worrying about the non stick coating. But if you do chips in it I wouldn't use liners. I actually prefer my Actifry for Chips, I also tried a rack in here which didn't work out well. I like the fact that you can have 2 different items on at the same time, so when my family want different stuff its easy to do, and at times I have cooked a toasty in the Salter AF, and my husband loves them (so making our toasty machine redundant. But I also use Bagette for homemade Pizza base and the family love it, they can have their own choice of toppings- 5 min and its ready to eat. I saw online someone put in grease proof paper as a liner, I tried doing this with a big fail as I left the paper too long, the paper burned and was lucky I was right next to it. OK now down to size, in ways I wish I had brought the other one with one big compartment and not the 2 trays with different temps. Some items I cook are too big for the tray so do still have to use the oven, eg shop brought family size pie, but if you make your own from start just use the correct dish and its great.

As lifelong cooks, we’re seriously impressed with the Salter XL Air Fryer Oven. It was incredibly easy to set up and has completely transformed how we cook. The 15L capacity and dual cooking divider make it perfect for feeding the whole family—no need to batch cook! From crispy rotisserie chicken to oil-free sides, every meal has been a hit. The presets are spot-on, the accessories are top quality, and the multi-level cooking is a real time-saver. Salter has nailed the design—smart, spacious, and reliable. Highly recommended for anyone who loves to cook!

Good product. I can just squeeze a whole chicken in one of the drawers and do the potatoes in the other although when both are on it does take a little longer for the second drawer to cook. Great for whole chicken, chicken breast and salmon. Great for roast potatoes not good for broccoli! Very handy for quickly heating your garlic bread or kids nuggets, pies, scampi and quiche etc defo does them quicker than an oven.

This oven air fryer is very versatile . Replaces our mini oven grill and toaster . First it’s a good size to even cook a small to medium Chicken . Does most of my cooking very well and heats up quickly ,meat is done quickly and the trays are easily wiped off after use . Loving the divider to cook two separate meals with the function of different temperatures and times if required . A readout and bleep tells you when it’s time to flip the food over which only takes a few seconds . Comes with plenty of wire shelves and black none stick trays . Once you have mastered the simple touch buttons and functions it’s an impressive cooking oven that works quietly and is easy to clean .

Extremely easy to use, very good quality and size we’ve used all settings and cooked a verity of food and can’t fault at all

Lovely air-fryer oven, very versatile, purchased it April 2025, used it for 4 or 5 days a week at 200 degrees for on average half an hour, sometimes a single compartment, sometimes dual compartment using different times, most often used the both compartments as one. Heating element packed up September 2025

The Salter EK5872 is a very smart, unobtrusive and adaptable air fryer and a bargain at the current Amazon price of £99.99 v Salter’s current £132.99. We were looking for a versatile capacity air fryer that was not too big for a retired couple. We looked for smaller drawer capacity to cook just a “handful” of chips or a few onion rings or hash browns as well as a couple of steaks or chops (more exotic menus to follow?) without having to uneconomically use our main oven. Operation is relatively intuitive but as has been pointed out there is no preheat function (debatable?). The current product description does however say no need for this. As has been pointed out previously there is an error in the very skimp manual which states “always preheat before starting to cook”. This has been acknowledged as an error to be removed in future editions. Another reviewer commented that the quoted external dimensions as stated are 37.8W X 36.4D x 31.9H cm but that includes the handles. These protrude 5 - 7.8cm and therefore the actual on bench footprint is smaller at only 28D cm. Someone enquired about internal drawer dimensions on the Salter web site but they could not provide this info - could they not have opened a box and measured! The Salter basket with divider in place at 2 x 4L is ideal. We also wanted the capacity to be able to cook a large chicken or joint with roast veg when needed, and the 8L capacity with the divider removed is ideal for this. The inside dimension is slightly larger than suggested in an other review at 32L x 22D x 10.5H cm. It was difficult sourcing a silicone liner basket for this and currently the only suitable one would appear to be the Goodpejine (for Duronic AF34) large silicone liner. This is advertised as 31L x 21W x 9.5D cm. This does slope inwards to a base of 28W x 17L x 10D cm so easily fits, especially with the overly flexible sides! Other makes vary between 34 - 37cm length and are too big. With the divider fitted the individual size of each compartment is slightly less than half at 15.5 W x 22 D cm. There are lots of makes of liners out there around 13 W x 19 D cm which will fit but I would advise a larger size such as the redesigned larger Moleath at 14 W x 20 D cm and this allows for the insertion of various (check dimensions) racks. Now the experimenting and learning curve starts for us - so far so good! If purchasing don’t forget to go onto the Salter web site and register for the extended 3 year warranty. PS. After a month we are very satisfied with this for our needs. One point which we discovered, which an other reviewer mentioned, is to NOT FILL DRAWER WITH WATER to stand after cooking - IT DOES LEAK AROUND THE GLASS INSPECTION PANELS and onto the bench and floor!

It was working great as an airfryer, but we tried the rotisserie and it hasn't worked since
