Although slightly bigger than a normal microwave depth-wise, it works really well. Spinning dial feels a bit light and has no feedback but apart from that feels solid. Looks good and build quality so far very good. Love the big plate area inside. Air fryer basket a bit annoying to clean due but I’ll figure out a way eventually.
As a microwave, it does the job perfectly, I’ve had nice even heating so far and it heats food very quickly despite only being rated 900W. The interface is easy, just click the button and you get 30 seconds, press a few more times you keep adding 30s or just spin the dial. Not all microwaves are like that surprisingly but very happy to see. Can also do the manual power select+time, defrost and some other options.
As an air fryer, I’ve had mixed experiences so far but probably mostly my fault. Frozen foods haven’t been coming out at the right temp but ive been putting the temperature up to 200 for things rather than the normal air fryer 20 degree decrease relative to recommended. Will keep trying before complaining and update! Haven’t really tried fryer presets since I don’t want to have to keep the book nearby and keep looking through it, but might also be good to try for experimentation.
Overall though, I’m happy it works as a microwave and seems promising on the air fryer front if i get the timing and temps right. Definitely better than the fanless oven i had to suffer with! Overall happy.
Tldr: positives: nice quality, good microwave, big area, decent fryer. Negatives: presets annoying to look through, cheap dial, need to experiment with cooking times and temps for fryer

I recently purchased the Daewoo Actuate Range, 8 Litre Air Fryer, and I’m thoroughly impressed with its performance and smart features. The one-touch smart cooking and AI technology that recognizes 12 food groups make cooking incredibly convenient. The viewing window allows me to check on my food without opening the lid, which helps maintain the cooking temperature.
The LCD touch screen display is user-friendly and easy to navigate. The air flow technology ensures that my food is evenly cooked, resulting in crispy and delicious meals. The generous 8-litre capacity is perfect for my family, and it’s spacious enough to cook larger meals without any issues.
Overall, this air fryer is a fantastic addition to my kitchen. It’s efficient, easy to use, and the smart features are a game-changer. Highly recommend!

I received my 5 in 1 today. Very prompt delivery. I received a code an hour or so before to give to the driver on delivery, for acceptance which was great.
This is superb quality. Check measurements as its larger than the norm microwave (so last season). Looks great and is so easy to use. I havnt used it to its full potential yet as I’ve only had it a few hours but I’ve used the microwave for rice and the air fryer for chicken so far. I can say that it has surpassed my expectations. It’s powerful and extremely quiet. No more turning the tv up when using my old microwave and nearly new air fryer. My rice and curry were cooked perfect and quickly. I already have a large capacity air fryer that is under 1 yr old and this machine knocks the socks off it!
I bought this 5 in 1 instead of a new cooker/oven and I’m so glad I did. The only thing it doesn’t do is prep and serve 😆
It comes with a solid tray and a fryer tray/cooling rack. It has large interior that will allow you to cook large items. 2 shelves. I wonder if you can buy a extra tray and rack?! Nice that its steel and shiny. Easy to clean.
This is a amazing piece of kit, real value for money and you save money too on electric! Winner, winner chicken curry and rice !
Looks good, cooks good and cooks quick and quiet.
I am amazed! I highly recommend. It is spot on!

Generally a good overall product either as a microwave, airfryer, or fan oven. For such a device it is compact and needs less space on each side and the back than other manufacturer’s equivalent products that I researched. There should be more specifications on the Amazon page about certain details. For example, the airfryer / fan oven max temperature is 230 C and the maximum timer that can be set is 95 minutes. The microwave output is 850 to 900 watts. The instruction manual is okay but it could be much better. There is no grill function but this can be done using the airfryer function. So far I have tried airfrying duck legs and a spatchcock chicken. Both came out beautifully cooked in significantly less time than had I cooked them in a conventional fan oven, and the skin was deliciously crispy – I did put some olive oil on the skin. Frozen potato rosti from Waitrose also came out well but needed turning over half way through for the best results and without using any oil. According to the instructions booklet the max chicken that can be fried is 1.2 Kg but if you spatchcock it (which is quick and simple see YouTube videos) I was easily able to airfry a 1.5 Kg chicken and would imagine even a 1.8 Kg one would be possible, if spatchcocked. The main control knob works well but it does feel a little plasticky. I’m sure a top quality one would have cost only £2 more + profit margin and would have elevated the product considerably. After 3 months use: A couple of little niggles: 1. The “Keep Warm” function is set at 140C and cannot be adjusted. This is too hot for most uses. A software tweak could allow this to be made adjustable, say from 50C to 140C. Please do that Daweoo. 2. The bake function does not cook pizza well as the toppings and cheese are overcooked and the middle of the dough base is too soft. The only way to solve this is to preheat the oven then cover the top of the pizza with aluminium foil and bake for about 8 to 10 minutes and then remove the foil and continue baking for about another 4 to 5 minutes or until it looks done. This is for pizzas that are cooked directly on the middle oven shelf in a conventional oven. Using this method it’s necessary to secure the foil either under the pizza or with a couple of all metal dessert spoons resting on the foil otherwise the foil blows upwards with the power of the internal fan. A few hours after I bought the product on Amazon I saw it £20 cheaper in the high street. I tried to cancel as it had not been dispatched but I received a message saying it was not possible, but that I could refuse to accept it when it was delivered to my home. I was in all day and the delivery did not ring my number but must have rang another number in the building & left it in the building entrance and sent a photo to me on Amazon. This meant I was unable to not accept it. That is very sneaky and underhand so I have docked a star.
