Good “all-in-one” but frustrating too.
I really wanted to like this and there’s definitely people it could be more ideally suited to, but in the time I had it wasn’t able to do any one thing better or quicker than the alternative methods it tries to replace. It really is trying to be a complete cooker in one tabletop package - you can brown and sauté foods, then change the lid and settings to finished the dish as a stew, slow-cooker, bake, steam or grill/airfry. The learning curve is pretty high though, the equivalent on a cooker of turning down the heat and putting on a lid becomes a game of instruction manuals and which-lid to use. The functions themselves never feel “turbo” in the slightest - even with a pressure lid cooking grains overall takes longer. I measured eight minutes for 150ml of water to come to the boil with rice on the dedicated rice function, a 7-8 minute cooking time but at least a ten minute natural pressure release too. It could suit a large family with limited kitchen space.

Excellent appliance in the kitchen
Initially when I saw the box I thought oh my God where am I going to put this appliance in my kitchen. When I opened it saw two lids I was very confused. I don’t really like reading instructions and big manuals so I tried to use it with my own knowledge however I was unsuccessful I did try to look on YouTube for videos on how to use it. In the end the penny dropped and once I got it working it was absolutely great the family even commented how different the food tasted so overall very happy . One little thing I need to mention is that as I had it on my kitchen surface with a cupboard above it as I was taking out the inner pot I’ve managed to burn my arm So just be careful.

Great food, eventually.
Much bigger than expected, but has found its place in the kitchen I found the instructions to be somewhat lacking and vague, and customer helpline could not answer my questions. Eventually worked things out and must say all dishes cooked so far have been excellent. Especially notice how moist chicken is compared to other methods of cooking. It will become a regular kitchen appliance. However, the air fryer attachementbis a bit of a guessing game. Instructions are again lacking, and of little use in my opinion. Biggest issue is that their is no “ basket” to place food in for frying. This results in any fat/liquids sit in the bottom of the bowl and the food sits in it. When cooking chicken wings, you have to remove the majority of them and then crisp up in very small batches. Surely a basket is a must for an air fryer? Despite the challenges, I will make good use of this cooker, but for those who are looking for ultimate convenience, look elsewhere.

Fabulous & versatile bit of kit.
I was surprised at the size of the box to be honest ! However once I’d opened it & read through the information book I was impressed at how straightforward it all was. It’s a game changer for me, I’ve not used my oven since I’ve had it. I’ve roasted a chicken & a joint of pork. Cooked chips , perfectly without oil , crispy on the outside & fluffy in the centre. I’ve used the pressure lid to make a wonderful stew with a very cheap cut of beef, it was tender & delicious. Yes it is quite large but I’ve ditched my slow cooker & now just use this. There is plenty of room inside to cook for a family & cooking without oil is definitely healthier.

Good but complicated
I have to state, I got the large version of this…. it is huge! Only buy if you have plenty of space or you are looking to replace oven/slow cooker/pressure cooker/air fryer. Pros: food comes out well, bowl is dishwasher safe, not expensive when you consider the cost of the appliances you’re replacing, amazing for batch cooking Cons: very complicated to use, no instructions on which lids you use, recipe book aside, there is no guide for general use/cooking times (I have no idea how to use the pressure cooker), app is a bit flaky (tells you the wrong ingredients), you need 2 electrical sockets available if using the crisping lid On face value, I quite like this. I think I need to use it more - The frustrating thing is not really knowing how to use it as I find the instructions confusing/lacking completely. I also stupidly thought that having an app would mean it was a smart device (think how cool it’d be if I could set up for my meal to heat remotely as I left for home?!)

A cooking revelation!
As a relative cooking novice i was sceptical about being able to set up and use the Tefal Turbo Cuisine quickly but i was pleasantly surprised. In no time i was making tender chicken wings and various other favourites with ease and speed and without the usual oily mess! - once you get to grips with the controls and functions, being able to cook many things at once in no time is fantastic - i would highly recommend for anyone that would benefit from organised and turbo cuisine creation!

Great all rounder, who needs a cooker?
This product has everything you will ever need from one pot. Great size, ideal for larger families or batch cooking, especially in times such as these when we are trying to save money. I used a number of functions and found them all very easy to use. Having 2 lids makes life so much easier and it means you can pressure cook a whole chicken and then switch lids to crisp up the skin. I also cooked my veg in with the chicken, so Instant meal. Took the veg out before browning and crisping. I tried the dehydrator function as have never actually tried it before and I’m now addicted to it. Had loads of strawberries and popped them in to the pot and wow, turned out fab. Temperature settings are accurate and was very quiet. Instant pots are the way forward and ideal for cooking anything in a variety of ways. You don’t need any other device as this pot can do everything. If you’re looking to buy for the first time or to upgrade an existing pot I would highly recommend this one.

Absolutely Fabulous
Well, what can I say about the Turbo Cuisine & Fry, I honestly don't know where to start? This is a total game changer when it comes to home cooking. It's very easy to use and also a pleasure to use. I used the slow cooker function 4 times in a week for things like sausage casserole, pulled pork, chicken korma. For the pressure cooker I cooker creamy chicken pasta, butter chicken, cantonese beef. For the air fryer I did things like wedges, chips, Bacon-Wrapped Jalapeño Poppers, chicken tenders. The turbo cuisine is big enough for a family of 5 to use with plenty of space left over. The steam release button is far more convenient and safer to use than the normal pressure cookers and that makes it a winner with me. I can't wait to do some soups and baking with it. For me this is a 10/10

Fantastic all round multi purpose cooker
Everything you need all in one cooking appliance, replacing the need for multiple kitchen appliances. Retailing at £250 this cooker can seem a bit pricey, however it does save you money in the long term because of its ability to cook in much less time than a conventional oven or hob. It has a 7.6L capacity which allows me to be able to easily cook meals for the whole family which is great!. Sunday lunches have become much easier being able to cook a joint of meat in such little time!. The turbo crisp attachment is great,crisping up home made chips, onion rings & roast potatoes etc.The Turbo Cuisine comes with 10 different cooking programmes built in, as well as functions for cooking, frying, slow cooking, pressure cooking and baking, with more options listed in the cooking manual as well as some great recipes and ideas. In summary if you are wanting a high quality multi purpose cooker to replace all of your smaller kitchen devices i definitely reccomend the Tefal Turbo Cuisine and Fry.

A mixed bag
I really wanted to like the product as its such a great all in one cooking idea. However, I can't get my head around the pre heat required for each stage of a recipe. I made 3 different recipes from the accompanying recipe book (nice touch to get a physical book), a risotto, spaghetti bolognese and a beef stew. They all turned out well but there was a fair amount of guess work involved with timings. You pre heat before the first cooking method then add the ingredients. Easy enough, preheats in few mins, but when you then go to the next stage and switch cooking methods i. e. from stir fry to stew it then reverts back to pre heat before starting the actual cooking time, bazaar especially as the preheat can take up to 20 mins! Perhaps you are meant to remove the ingredients between each preheat but that would be equally as bazaar. Apart from this strange pre heat hiccup I do actually love my one pot meal maker. Perhaps I just need to find recipes that don't require a change of method.

Fabulous results Just too big
Loved the results with this. Super quick healthy food. So many modes. Perfect porridge. Loved the cookbook which gave me ideas for fabulous rice dishes. However, the item is just too big. Too big to stay on the counter and the crisp fry lid is huge too. Pity because it is heavy to get out and put away

Not what I was expecting
Firstly Airfry function is amazing, homemade chips cooked to perfection. The Manual and each function instructions are very minimal for the pressure cooked part, doesnt mention how long each function should take to preheat. Doesnt inform you anywhere that the pressure cooking button needs to be de-pressed to allow to heat up! After failing the steam (10mins preheating and boiled away the water) stew (30 mins preheating again and burnt the bottom of the stew) I contacted tefal and I couldnt get past the preheat stage. Customer service was quick and responsive with help and advice but seems they dont know how its suppose to work and have to contact another team. I’m still trying to get use to it and some functions are quicker on the hob like steam and stirfy. The product has 2 lids which isnt ideal for storing.

Great kitchen gadget
Has changed the way I prepare meals, makes it easier to batch cook meals without effort. Chips and other oven snacks taste so much better. The app is very useful. Only gripe is it can be hard to remove stuff when hot

Exceptional bit of kit.
overall amazing! I have not yet used it to its full potential as it does sooo much, but what i have used it for it has been amazing, not a product i am used to but after the first time it doesn't take much working out, comes with a good instruction guide & ideas of what you can use it for which i found very helpful. i am really excited to use this product more, only down size is it comes in 2 sections & its harder to store, although i would prefer the 2nd lid as this was for crisping & worked amazingly. i would highly recommend & will 100% be try more of these products in the future.

Cooking Revelation
To start with the unit was boxed very professionally, slightly heavier than I had anticipated but still very well packed. I have never used an air fryer or any other variation of this to cook before and I must say once I had gotten use to how to use it, it was a relevation. It was easy to use once you were familiar with it, cooks extremely well and the food tastes delicious. I feel that this item will encourage me to cook more often and the menu book was a very welcome and helpful addition! A great item
