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 Oven & Grill FW5018

We recommend the FW5018 for households that want to replace a mini oven and an air fryer with one appliance. The 11 L capacity handled a small roast chicken on the rotisserie spit while fries crisped on the lower rack. The viewing window is a welcome addition that most Tefal basket models lack. At 200 EUR or 2499 SEK, it is a significant investment, but it does replace two appliances. Air frying results are good but not quite as crispy as the dedicated basket models like the EZ801D.
