The grill is great for preparing a variety of dishes: crispy chicken, crispy buns and juicy fish.

But it is not very convenient to use it for drying mushrooms, herbs, vegetables – the minimum temperature is only 80 ° C, and the maximum cooking time is only 60 min.

Also, the lack of an expansion ring will not allow you to sterilize tall jars in this air grill.

OPERATION FEATURES

This air grill is the only model with mechanical controls in our test. No buttons, just two switches and that’s it. You just have to set the temperature and cooking time and the grill will start cooking. If the knob is not pulled all the way down, the air grill won’t turn on. This safety measure is used in all similar devices, but the handle of this model requires a fixation: if the latch is not removed, the air grill will not work.

The manufacturers emphasize in the instructions that the air grill does not require preheating, as quickly gets the set temperature.

A buzzer alerts you when the air grill is finished working.

CONTROL

Everything is simple. There are two switches on the lid: time and temperature. Timer is in 5 minute increments, but the marks are given for each minute, so you can set it to 17 or 28 minutes if needed. With the temperature regulator is a bit more complicated: the initial value is not specified on the panel, we learned it from the manual. From 80 ° C to 125 ° C exact value can not be set, from 125 ° C to 200 ° C adjustment step is 25 °, from 200 to 250 ° C – 5 °.

Unfortunately, the markings on the control panel can wear off over time. Therefore, we do not recommend using a sponge with detergent or touching them with wet fingers.

GUIDE

All accessories can be washed in hot water. There is no indication in the manual that the bowl can be washed in a dishwasher.

INSTRUCTIONS

The small booklet contains all the necessary information regarding the construction, safety precautions and control features of the air grill. Conveniently, at the end there is a list of all service centers in America, where you can go for technical assistance.

In addition, there is a booklet with information about the whole line of VR aero grills and a collection of interesting recipes. You can find egg dishes, chicken dishes, fish dishes, vegetable dishes, meat dishes, mushroom dishes and desserts separately. Interesting, varied recipes allow the hostess to surprise her family and guests. Unfortunately, there are only two desserts, for lovers of sweetness this may not be enough.
