5.0 out of 5 stars Smart, unobtrusive and adaptable.
The Salter EK5872 is a very smart, unobtrusive and adaptable air fryer and a bargain at the current Bolo price of £99.99 v Salter’s current £132.99.We were looking for a versatile capacity air fryer that was not too big for a retired couple. We looked for smaller drawer capacity to cook just a “handful” of chips or a few onion rings or hash browns as well as a couple of steaks or chops (more exotic menus to follow?) without having to uneconomically use our main oven. Operation is relatively intuitive but as has been pointed out there is no preheat function (debatable?). The current product description does however say no need for this. As has been pointed out previously there is an error in the very skimp manual which states “always preheat before starting to cook”. This has been acknowledged as an error to be removed in future editions.Another reviewer commented that the quoted external dimensions as stated are 37.8W X 36.4D x 31.9H cm but that includes the handles. These protrude 5 - 7.8cm and therefore the actual on bench footprint is smaller at only 28D cm.Someone enquired about internal drawer dimensions on the Salter web site but they could not provide this info - could they not have opened a box and measured!The Salter basket with divider in place at 2 x 4L is ideal. We also wanted the capacity to be able to cook a large chicken or joint with roast veg when needed, and the 8L capacity with the divider removed is ideal for this. The inside dimension is slightly larger than suggested in an other review at 32L x 22D x 10.5H cm. It was difficult sourcing a silicone liner basket for this and currently the only suitable one would appear to be the Goodpejine (for Duronic AF34) large silicone liner. This is advertised as 31L x 21W x 9.5D cm. This does slope inwards to a base of 28W x 17L x 10D cm so easily fits, especially with the overly flexible sides! Other makes vary between 34 - 37cm length and are too big.With the divider fitted the individual size of each compartment is slightly less than half at 15.5 W x 22 D cm. There are lots of makes of liners out there around 13 W x 19 D cm which will fit but I would advise a larger size such as the redesigned larger Moleath at 14 W x 20 D cm and this allows for the insertion of various (check dimensions) racks.Now the experimenting and learning curve starts for us - so far so good!If purchasing don’t forget to go onto the Salter web site and register for the extended 3 year warranty.PS. After a month we are very satisfied with this for our needs. One point which we discovered, which an other reviewer mentioned, is to NOT FILL DRAWER WITH WATER to stand after cooking - IT DOES LEAK AROUND THE GLASS INSPECTION PANELS and onto the bench and floor!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great.
Very happy with this air fryer. The basket has a divider making two separate cooking compartments or one larger basket by removing the divider. I use this almost daily, rarely use my oven now. Very easy to set up and use.

Very pleased with my purchase
4.0 out of 5 stars This is my second one
This is my second one, hoping this will last longer, the first one stop working after 20 months, but I have to say Bolo char sorted it for me and a replacement was sent the following day, and I returned the old one. So although my overall rating is 4 star, I cannot fault the person who dealt with this, his service was excellent in a replacement, here to hoping this one last longer, other than than that this has been a very good air fryer
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant product
Having considered purchasing an air fryer for some time I finally took the plunge in the Bolo Prime Sale, for £60 this was an ofer too good to miss. The product is excellent, it is clearly well made as expected from a trusted brand (Salter). It has two very spacious comaprtments and is so much quicker and more effcient at cookijg food than my Bosch oven. The food is really crispy on the outside and tastes much better than when i've cooked them previously. It heats incredibly quickly too. I am glad took the plunge into air frying as it really does make my life cookijg easier as a family of four.
