Tefal Easy Fry Mega

Name: Tefal Easy Fry Mega
Brand: Tefal
SKU: 9805

Manufacturer: Tefal

The Tefal Easy Fry, also known as the Tefal Easy Fry Mega, is a basket-style air fryer designed to cover a wide range of everyday cooking needs. With 9 cooking modes including air fry, bake, broil, roast, toast, reheat, dehydrate, slow cook, and keep warm, it offers considerable versatility for a single countertop appliance. Digital controls make it straightforward to operate, and a built-in preheat function helps ensure consistent cooking results from the start.

On the technical side, the unit draws 2020W during operation and supports temperatures between 45°C and 200°C, giving it a broad usable range for both low-temperature dehydrating and higher-heat roasting or broiling. The basket holds 7.5 litres and the appliance measures 396 mm wide, 310 mm deep, and 315 mm tall, with a total weight of 5650 g. It includes shake reminders to assist during cooking, though it does not feature an interior light, a viewing window, or smart home connectivity. Warranty coverage is set at two years.

Who is this for?

This air fryer is well-suited for households that regularly cook for larger groups, thanks to its 7.5-litre basket capacity. The broad selection of nine cooking modes — including slow cook, dehydrate, and toast — makes it a practical fit for users who want a single appliance to handle varied meal preparation throughout the day. Those who appreciate guided cooking will also benefit from the built-in shake reminders and preheat function, which help reduce the need for constant monitoring and deliver more consistent results.

Who is this NOT for?

Users who prioritise easy cleanup may find this model frustrating, as the basket is not dishwasher-safe and requires manual washing each time. Those with limited counter space should take note of its substantial footprint — 396 mm wide and 310 mm deep — and weight of 5,650 g, making it less practical in compact kitchens. It is also not a good fit for anyone seeking smart home integration, since it lacks compatibility with Alexa, Google Assistant, or any form of smartphone remote control.
