Which Should You Buy?

Tefal Easy Fry Compact EY1458

We see the EY1458 as the right Tefal for students, couples, or anyone in a small apartment. At 70 EUR, it is cheaper than most Philips and Cosori models of similar size. The 3.5 L basket handles a single portion of fries in about 15 minutes at 200C, or two modest portions if you do not mind slightly less crispy edges from a fuller basket. The 1300W element is the weakest in the range, so expect cooking times to run 1 to 2 minutes longer than the 1400W or 1500W models. For the price, that is an acceptable tradeoff.

Tefal Easy Fry Max EY245B

We rate the EY245B as the best value Tefal air fryer for small families. The jump from 4.2 L to 5 L matters more than it sounds. We could fit a full batch of frozen fries for 4 people without overcrowding the basket. Fries came out evenly crispy in about 16 minutes at 200C. At 100 EUR or 1399 SEK, it undercuts Philips and Cosori 5 L models while delivering comparable results. If you do not need grill marks, this is a smarter buy than the EZ505.
