Instant Vortex Plus ClearCook vs Frigidaire EAF601-BLACK

She says this is a good size for her family of four. She is pleased with its easy to use interface, and of course the crispy tasty food it produces. Great purchase.

I'm in love with this appliance. The only downside is that it is bloody huge! Approx 16 inches tall and doesn't fit well in any of my cupboards. I don't have the counter space for it either. Being big is a plus for ability to cook lots, but a minus for storage

I like being able to see the browning without opening the basket and letting out heat. With energy prices going up, it seems an advantage to have the smaller appliance and less cooking time. If there is a downside, I am not a fan of the knob dial. I would much rather have push buttons to adjust temperature and time, but this is just a preference

If I used the default function for the time and temperature, the food was burnt outside and cold/undercooked inside. So I have to manually reduce the temperature each time and check the food every couple minutes to make sure the it is not burnt outside. I might return it as it is too much trouble for this.
