    Anyone that bought it at the higher price, you can go back in and get the difference refunded within 7 days. That's policy.

    Seems no one bothered to read my post above.

    I did.

    I emailed them this morning, and they said they will charge my card the new price rather than the old price , so no issues.

    Just tried it there. Some potato cubes. Done in 22 minutes from cold with a tiny bit of olive oil and they tasted like chipper chips

    Looking forward to cooking proper meals now

    Don't mean to derail but...
    Would anyone have any input on the Philips AryFry in the OP put up against this one in argos?

    http://www.argos.ie/static/Product/partNumber/9066650/c_1/1%7Ccategory_root%7CKitchen+and+laundry%7C14418476/c_2/3%7C19780844%7CSmall+kitchen+appliances%7C14418587/c_3/4%7Ccat_14418587%7CFryers%7C14418598.htm

    After all the great reviews I'm thinking of buying one but I'm late to the party on knowing whats good about either.
    Any input appriciated.

    Not the same one as OP, but a massive price for this bit of kit. Never been this low...ever.

    I got the one in currys yesterday. It's still unopened. Is it worth the €30 more than the Amazon one?

    Are chips really that good in it?

    Some people claim theyre as good as chipper chips, where as others have been very disappointed.

    Not sure wether or not to pull the trigger.

    I'm in the process of trying to cancel the digital and have just bought this one - worse case scenario I return the digital. Great bargain :-)

    Currently in the process of trying to cancel the order to curry's. It's not an easy process. Tried emailing websales@currys.ie but emails are being returned with an error message. Then rang 1890400001 but they said only way is through email. So kinda stuck. Has anyone any ideas or maybe another email I could try

    Some people report excellent results from homemade chips if you soak them overnight to get rid of starch then coat them with oil properly etc, I just skip all that and use Aldi Homefries or with a steak the Aldi premium thick cut, its really, really, good with oven chips, as in nearly raises them up to deep fat fried level. I couldnt stomach oven chips from our old oven, soggy, singed dehydrated dirty oven flavoured yokes, now I have to force myself not to have them 5 nights a week :D

    Same for everything else like spring rolls, onion rings, chicken nuggets, southern fried chicken, scampi, fish fingers, fish cakes, full Irish, pork chops, steak, pork belly, roast chicken... anything you can think of, cooked twice as fast as the oven and no smoky burnt grease taste off any of it, just perfectly cooked food every time.

    Downsides are it can be a pain to clean if you let the grease build up in the basket but a blast in the dishwasher usually cures it and it is small, its really the students or single persons best friend, but it can do the meat for 3-4 people if you do the veg elsewhere.

    You wont regret it at that price, it'll pay for itself after a few skipped takeaways, just dont be disappointed when you dehydrate or burn the first couple of things you put in it, it cooks hot and fast, mind you dont melt the counter with the basket aswell like my landlord did.

    Pretty sure they have to as they cant charge more than what you were shown at checkout.

    Worst case scenrio your order could be cancelled.

    I ordered one anyway, so i'll see how it goes.

    It's digital, man, digital I tell you! . And you can preset cooking temps and duration once you have the cooking times nailed. And you get a flashy cooking rack. Oh, and did I mention it's digital ! Of course it's worth the €30 :D

    The cooking rack costs €30 alone so the digital one is a good deal too,

    Its two tier so would be handy for doing 2 steaks i presume.
