" Brand: Bomb Cosmetics / Ballistic / Type: Bath Melt/Foam / Texture: Cream "
I had promised myself that this year I was going to be good, and resist the temptation to spend money on things I didn't need. I was doing quite well until I spotted a huge gift box full of Bomb Cosmetics for a bargain price in the sales. I first tried Bomb Cosmetics a few years back, and on the whole wasn't really impressed with them. Around Christmas time however, I kept seeing lots and lots of positive reviews of the products and when I spotted the gift set I couldn't resist treating myself to it.
As I got lots of bath products for Christmas I wasn't really planning on using any of these Bomb products just yet. This changed when I opened the box and found the Hearts Desire Bath Creamer was not wrapped in cellophane like the other products,. I was worried that moisture might get to it and ruin it as has happened a few times with my Lush bath bombs, so I decided it would be a good idea to get it used up.
A Bath Creamer is sort of like a very small bath bomb. Whereas you would expect a bath bomb to be around the size of a tennis ball, these are closer to the size of a golf ball. They are hand made, and are rich in cocoa butter, and this along with the Shea butter they also contain will help keep the skin moisturised.
Hearts Desire is certainly a very pretty little thing, and has a plain white base which is covered in red and purple hearts. It's very girly looking and I think the hearts would make it appeal to younger girls in particular.
Bomb Cosmetics describe this as having 'a sophisticated, sensual fragrance' and the scent is supposed to be a mixture of pomegranate, lotus blossom and black orchid over an amber, mahogany base. In fact, when looking at the ingredients list, the only things recognisable to me aside from the cocoa butter and Shea butter, are geranium oil and ylang ylang oil.
I must admit, the actual scent of this is rather gorgeous, and I would agree with their description of sophisticated and sensual, and I'd add luxurious onto the end too! It has a very sweet, floral scent and the main scent I can pick out is orchid, because I used to use an orchid fabric softener which smelled very similar! I'd say it's quite a girly fragrance, but there's something a little exotic about it, and I couldn't wait to try it out.
When I dropped this into my bath, I expected a plume of fizz as it dissolved, as you usually get with products of this type. In fact it thudded to the bottom of the bath and seemed to do nothing. After a few seconds I started to notice a slight cloudiness to the water around where the creamer was, and when I picked it back out of the water, I could see that it was starting to dissolve - just very slowly. I would say that in total it must have taken somewhere between 5 and 10 minutes for this to fully dissolve. Obviously I wasn't timing, but it just seemed to take forever, presumably as being so small it has a lower amount of bicarbonate of sodium which is the stuff that makes a bath bomb fizz . In the end I broke it up with my hand to help it on its way a bit. Once it had dissolved a few of the sugar hearts rose to the surface which did look quite pretty, I have to admit.
The smell from the bath creamer when in the water, was unfortunately non-existent. It was a shame really, as it smelled so nice when it was dry, but I can only assume that the bath water diluted it to the point it was too weak for me to smell.
Another thing that disappointed me was the way this made my bath water feel. Obviously containing both Shea and cocoa butter, I expected it to have some sort of moisturising effect, but what I actually got was a bath with water that felt very greasy. It wasn't the luxurious sort of oils you tend to get with expensive bath products - just a greasiness that seemed to cling to my skin and made me feel like I wasn't very clean!
When I got out of the bath I was pleased to find that my skin did feel quite nice to the touch. It was soft and moisturised and thankfully not greasy, which is something I'd worried about given how the product was in the water. I didn't suffer any irritation and the lovely patch of eczema on my foot that just won't go away didn't seem to be affected by the use of this either. I didn't notice the scent on my skin, but that's not particularly surprising given that the scent of the product seemed to disappear as soon as it hit the water anyway.
One of these 30g bath creamers will set you back £2.49 from www.bombcosmetics.co.uk or you can also buy from Amazon. I've noticed a lot of independent shops - especially gift shops - now stock Bomb cosmetics too. Personally I think £2.49 is a lot for a product so small, whether it had worked or not!
On the whole I have been very disappointed with this product, and it's actually put me off trying the rest of my Bomb Cosmetics set, in case they're all this bad! The only advantages I can think of is that it looks pretty and smells nice dry, but actually using it is not a great experience at all, and so this is not a product I can recommend.
The Hearts Desire Creamer from Bomb Cosmetics is a small white bath creamer around the size of a golf ball, maybe even a bit smaller. It has 2 shades of pink hearts scattered throughout it like confetti (hence the name 'Hearts Desire').
This bath creamer has a fruity fragrance to it and incorporates pomegranate, lotus blossom and black orchid, as well as hints of amber and mahogany.
I ran my bath and dropped the Hearts Desire Creamer into the water. It fell to the bottom of the bath and slowly started to fizz into life. For a small bath bomb/creamer, it took absolutely ages to do its thing. It took so long that I'd nearly finished my bath by the time it has fizzed away and I enjoy a nice long soak in the bath.
The water turned a misty white, but not the full on milky white water I was expecting from a product called a creamer. However, this is a small product compared to the bath bombs etc from Lush.
Once I was in the bath, I couldn't smell the fruity scent I'd smelled on the creamer before I put it into the bath water, so I found that somewhat disappointing.
Having looked on the Bomb Cosmetics website, I can now see that this is a cocoa butter melt, which explains why the bath water looked and felt oily, as did my skin. My skin still felt a bit oily as I dried myself, however later on I did notice my skin feeling soft.
So, would I buy this again? Probably not. I liked the fruity smell of it, but was disappointed that the scent disappeared once it was in the water. It also took way too long to dissolve in the bath, especially as it's quite small in the first place.
If you want to try a Hearts Desire Creamer anyway, you can find them on the Bomb Cosmetics website for £1.99, as well as in other shops.
A word of warning, this is not a product for those of you who suffer from nut allergies as the sugar hearts within the creamer contain traces of peanut oil.

Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas
Scenario: my friend was arrested but not convicted or arraigned for a misdemeanor weed possession. While waiting arraignment he was arrested for a "g" felony (possession of < 1oz of cocaine). He was finally sentenced for the 1st charge (which was unrelated to the 2nd). Will the second charge effect the conditions of the 1st one since technically he hasn't been in trouble since he got sentenced?

Texas does not have "G" felony so you need to change your state to get an answer from someone in the state in which the case is pending.

Orgbon is a junior at Mill Creek High School in Dacula, Ga., 35 miles northeast of Atlanta. Originally from Florence, S.C., he grew up in a rural community where he spent much of his time outdoors until moving to the suburban community of Gwinnett County. However, he brought much of his appreciation for nature with him. Troubled by his school's littering problem and lack of environmental concern, Orgbon formed a student action team, and eventually, he decided to empower other young people to start their own groups. Consequently, Orgbon created Greening Forward, which would offer mini-grants, recognition, civic engagement curricula, skill-building workshops, and an online platform for idea sharing for other young environmental changemakers.
Since 2008, Greening Forward has raised over $100,000 and has catalyzed young people to recycle 60 tons of waste, plant 200 trees, save 155,000 gallons of water, and stage the first-ever International Young Environmentalists Youth Summit. Orgbon also advises a number of youth-service nonprofits, including Youth Service America, Earth Force, the Zerofootprint Foundation, and the Gwinnett Children's Shelter Teen Board. He also serves as a governmental adviser on the Model Atlanta Regional Commission and the 7th U.S. Congressional District Student Editorial Board. All that … plus blogging for Huffington Post. When he has time, Orgbon enjoys being outdoors with his family and hanging out with friends.

Part of our vows were " I will make a home in your heart forever", so I tried to turn it into a valentine for my hubby. He's sentimental, and likes anything I make, but he doesn't really care for overly romantic symbols or images.
I gave it to him last night at 5 minutes after midnight, and he loves it.
I also made him the afghan that the card is lying on for Valentine's Day, but he got that early because it was chilly in our room.

OverviewThis route is definitely the easy way to climb Mount Angeles. For those who want spectacular views but don't feel in the mood for relentless switchbacks, this is the way to go. The difference in elevation between the parking lot and the summit is just 17 feet shy of 1000 feet. But the accumulative gain for a round-trip summit hike is closer to 2000 feet because of the ups and downs along the ridge.
Getting ThereTake Highway 101 to Port Angeles and then take a left on Hurricane Ridge Road to the Park entrance. Follow Hurricane Ridge Road all the way to end which is the Hurricane Ridge lookout and viewpoint parking lot.
Route DescriptionFrom the parking lot, take the right fork of the Sunrise trail for less than a quarter of a mile until it intersects the Klahhane Ridge trail (well marked with signs). Follow this trail as it traverses North-East along the top of Klahhane Ridge for 2.25 miles until it crosses the Mount Angeles trail. In clear conditions, you should clearly see Mount Angeles from Klahhane Ridge.
When you come to the Mount Angeles trail there is a small wooden post that used to have a sign that said "Mountain". Turn left here and follow the trail for another third of a mile. Don't give in to the urge to climb up the first obvious scramble that comes into view. Continue to follow the faint trail around to the west side of the summit block until it ends at the correct scramble gully.
Just below the summit it looks like there are 3 tops. The one on the right (South) is highest. Keep you eyes open for bears on the ridge. I saw one. There used to be a pesky goat that was extremely aggressive and territorial. It liked to chase people near the summit area. He chased a friend of mine up into a tree and another time he followed me and her in the dark scaring the living daylights out of us. Unfortunately tragedy struck when the goat gored a hiker in the femoral artery. The hiker died of blood loss and the goat was hunted down and destroyed.

Matt Schaub lost part of his ear during the Texans' win in Denver on Sunday, and the action isn't going unpunished.
Broncos middle linebacker Joe Mays was the guilty party in the gruesome hit that saw Schaub's earlobe cut in half, and now he'll pay the price for his action. Mays will be suspended one game and fined $50,000 for the hit, the NFL announced Tuesday.
Mays laid the brutal hit on Schaub during the third quarter of Sunday's game, leading with his helmet and sending the quarterback flying to the turf. The suspension isn't for the injury to Schaub, but rather Mays' helmet-to-helmet hit on the quarterback.
Mays apologized to Schaub on the field after the game, again inside the locker room area, and on Monday emphasized the fact that he, by no means, meant to injure Schaub on the play.
"I don't want people to think I'm a dirty player or a headhunter or anything like that. I just play fast," Mays said.
The apology apparently didn't change the league's decision on the matter, though, as it was determined that the hit was vicious enough to earn a one-game ban. Mays plans on appealing the suspension, according to NFL.com.
This marks Mays' second disciplinary offense this season, and the suspension is likely the NFL sending a message to Mays that this sort of reckless play is unacceptable. The fifth-year linebacker was fined $7,875 by the league for a late hit on Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan just last week.
Check out video of Mays' hit on Schaub below.

Once again, my wife has accepted an invitation on my behalf to attend a social function. Is it unreasonable to expect her to check with me before she speaks for both of us?
Tom: The short answer? No! Now let me explain, because Caroline and I had our share of tense moments early in our marriage over this very issue. Time is certainly a precious commodity in our busy lives. It is reasonable that we treat it in marriage much like we treat money: We don't appreciate when it is pre-spent by our spouses without conferring with us first. Trouble is, we are led astray by good intentions. When a friend extends an invitation to a child's baptism, for instance, we desire to express our shared joy by accepting the invitation immediately if we know there is nothing else on the calendar for that day. A response of, "Let me discuss it with Charlie first," we fear, will come across as a delay tactic designed to allow us time to concoct an inventive way out of the obligation. As a result, we accept right away.
Meanwhile, husband Charlie has made plans to take the boys fishing that same day. He's irked to find out his wife has already accepted the invitation. It isn't that Charlie wouldn't have agreed to put the fishing plans on hold; he just feels miffed that he wasn't given the consideration to participate in the decision. It took a lot of effort for him to pinpoint a free Saturday to go fishing with his sons.
Spouses need to respect each other's time and participation in decisions that affect personal and family time, even if that means not giving an immediate answer. Any reasonable person should respect and understand this. We all have an obligation to answer invites promptly, but our first obligation is to our spouses. Caroline and I have formed the habit of saying, "We'd love to! But let me check with my wife/husband first and I'll get right back to you."
Caroline: We can communicate with each other on these situations by doing two things: First, set aside a few minutes every day to make a game plan for all upcoming events. Review any appointments for the coming week, coordinate who is picking up whom from practice, and so on. Tom and I try to do this right before bed: "Now what's happening tomorrow?" Then nothing slips through the cracks.
Next, invest a few dollars in a large dry-erase wall calendar. Place it in a prominent place, readily visible for every family member to know what's going on. We have ours on the kitchen wall, right by the dining table, which we pass by umpteen times a day. We find the most useful ones are the year-at-a-glance styles. Or, if you are technologically adept, sync up your electronic calendars. Each time one of you enters a new appointment, it will load onto your spouse's calendar as well. Write down any and all appointments, practices, rehearsals and the like, and be diligent about adding new events. This takes time and discipline, but I'm always inspired by the words of St. Thomas Aquinas: "The function of the wise man is to order."
May the Lord grant you peace in your relationship and order in your schedules!

|The Deal
|Having failed to come to terms with either of their free-agent outfielders, Milton Bradley or Mike Cameron, the Padres resorted to the trade route Dec. 14, sending minor league third baseman David Freese to the Cardinals for veteran center fielder and Southern California native Jim Edmonds.
|The Big Leaguer
|Edmonds, 37, is without question on the downside of his career, but he did register a .257/.350/.471 season for St. Louis as recently as two years ago when the Cardinals' improbably ran the table in the playoffs. The problem has been health moreso than production for Edmonds as he heads into his late 30s—though he has lost a step or two in the outfield as he's aged. He missed time in 2007 with hamstring, back and groin injuries, and lost time to wrist, shoulder and big toe ailments in 2006. In fact, he's totaled just 715 at-bats in the past two seasons combined, as injuries have kept him off the field for large stretches of time. But seeing as his career-high for games played is 154 (1998), it's not as if Edmonds has been a paradigm of health. A seventh-round pick of the Angels in 1988, Edmonds answered early career questions about power by slugging 33 home runs in 1995 for the pre-Anaheim, pre-Los Angeles,
|The Prospect
|Freese, 24, moves from an impossible situation to a much more favorable one. Buried behind Kevin Kouzmanoff and Chase Headley on the Padres' third-base depth chart, Freese spent time at catcher in instructional league because of San Diego's hot-corner logjam. Even second baseman Matt Antonelli could be viewed as a third-base option, seeing as he played the position at
|Quick Take
|Both teams stand to gain from this trade. The Padres are sensibly gambling on a bounceback season from Edmonds because their outfield situation is otherwise dire. Among players on the 40-man roster, only Brian Giles has proven himself capable of regular play. General manager Kevin Towers has indicated that the club intends to find out if Headley can man the other outfield corner, enabling them to keep Kouzmanoff's bat in the lineup at third base.
Cardinals top prospect Colby Rasmus plays the same position as Edmonds, and after a dominant season at Double-A Rasmus won't need much, if any, minor league time in 2008. Though he may be a year away, Freese provides depth in case the Cardinals find a taker for Scott Rolen, who's under contract for the next three years at $36 million.

All this tubeless talk makes me sad. I've been happily riding tubeless on my conventional mtb's for years but my 2 sets of fat-wheels have Uma-1's and Flattop 100's. These rims are too small to run tubeless. The tires fit so loosely that they're difficult to air up with tubes without blowing off the rims. I've tried building up the bed and using the 24" split tube without success. If anybody has any great ideas I'm all ears, otherwise I'll go on suffering with my tubes.

Is there any difference in the use of articles in the following context:
We were going back home after a day's walking tour to the forest. The sky was getting darker. A strong wind began to blow and we heard a / the thunder.
I know that "thunder" is uncountable and it's better to use "a clap of thunder" or a "roll of thunder", but still, can one just use "thunder" alone and sound natural?

A Tribute to Silence of the Lambs' Buffalo Bill
Buffalo Bill, whose real name is Jame Gumb, is the villain being tracked in the 1991 film Silence of the Lambs. Played expertly by Ted Levine, Buffalo Bill is modeled after killer Ed Gein, who skinned his victims; Ted Bundy, who used the cast on his hand as bait to make women get into his van; and Gary Heidnick, who kept women he kidnapped in a pit in his basement. His hobbies are collecting moths, sewing, and trying to be a woman (the kidnapping and killing is just a means to an end.)
First, let's get in the mood by watching this classic scene, titled "It Puts the Lotion in the Basket."
Best Buffalo Bill Dialogue
Jame: [To Catherine] Are you about a size 14?
Jame: [To a mirror] Would you fuck me? I'd fuck me. I'd fuck me hard.
Jame: [Shouting] You don't know what pain is!
Jame: [To Clarice while dying] What's it like to be beautiful?
Jame: [to his dog, Precious] Yes, it will, Precious, won't it? It will get the hose!
Jame: It rubs the lotion on its skin. It does this whenever it's told. It puts the lotion on its skin, or else it gets the hose again. Now it puts the lotion in the basket. Put the fucking lotion in the basket!
Buffalo Bill's Favorite Song
|Goodbye Horses by Q Lazzarus. This is not on the Silence of the Lambs soundtrack, but is on the soundtrack of the 1988 film Married to the Mob, also directed by Jonathan Demme.

While mobile device management (MDM) is only applied to a fraction of devices in use, organisations do not deploy MDM unless they are serious about mobile use.
So it is interesting to see that among users of XenMobile MDM, the proportion of iOS devices rose two percentage points to 58% during the fourth quarter of 2012. Android use saw a corresponding drop to 35%, with Windows Mobile flat on 7%.
But those global figures cover considerable regional variation.
iOS also gained share in North America, reaching 62% "largely at the expense of Android" which slipped to 35%. Windows Phone accounted for just 3%.
It was a very different story in Europe, Middle East and Africa, where the three platforms are more evenly balanced. iOS's share dropped 13 points to 43%. Most of that transferred to Android, which saw an 11 point growth to 36%. The other two points went to Windows Mobile which lifted to 21%.
In terms of industries, the biggest adopter of Windows Mobile is Oil and Gas, possibly accounting for its position in EMEA. iOS was most widely used in insurance, legal services, leisure, entertainment, and energy. Android was most commonly seen in communications services, healthcare (especially home healthcare), and transportation.
But how are enterprises using MDM? Curiously, only 63% use it to enforce a passcode policy, which you could be forgiven for thinking would be the first thing any organisation would apply.
39% apply a GPS policy (there is no indication of the proportion that enable or disable GPS), and 32% restrict device resources (eg, the camera) or apps.
The most commonly blacklisted apps were Angry Birds, Facebook, Dropbox, YouTube, and Skype.
Citrix's full quarterly report on XenMobile MDM statistics is available here [PDF, 878K].

Best Low Fat Fryers, Halogen Ovens & Air Fryer Reviews
Healthy Food can be Tasty too
This site is all about healthy cooking. Whether you want Low Fat Fryers, Halogen Ovens or Food Steamers, we will show you how to select the best product with the features you need at a price you want to pay.
People are much more conscious about the health problems of too much fried food but enjoy the taste. Low fat fryers (also known as Health Fryers and AirFryers) use little or no oil but still provide the taste that people are used to. Healthy low fat fryers are now officially the most desirable new purchase for the kitchen. We will explain all you need to know about Low Fat Fryers and how these differ from Halogen Ovens, which are often confused but definitely not the same.
Low Fat Fryers and Halogen Ovens continue to be one of the best selling kitchen appliances in 2016, which is why we have put together the most comprehensive air fryer reviews available. It is hard to imagine fried food without the deep fat fryer and the associated pan of oil but that is exactly what these healthy low fat fryers do. These Airfryers 'fry' your food without needing a pan of oil. Not only does this result in a healthy fryer but the no oil fryer is a safe fryer since you don't need to boil a pan of oil in the kitchen. Deep fat fryers were an improvement on the original chip pan in terms of safety but still presented a fire hazard. The low fat fryer or air fryer removes this risk, making the kitchen a safer environment.The choice used to be Tefal versus Breville but things have progressed far beyond this with other suppliers entering the market such as Philips & Duronic etc.

The Philips Airfryer range has long been a favourite of ours and this model typifies why Philips continue to rake in great reviews. The style is similar to the Duonic and uses a patented 'Rapid Air' technology which blasts the food with high temperature air – up to 200 degrees celsius. The claim is that this crisps the food making it more like traditional fried food. In out 'Chip Test' we were very satisfied with the results.
Halogen Ovens or Low Fat Fryers (Air Fryers) ?
During 2014 and 2015 we witnessed a further development in health fryers with the growth of the so called halogen ovens. These devices are designed to cook a variety of food and not just by frying. They come with a much larger capacity than traditional low fat fryers which can be as large as 17 litres although 10 to 12 litres is more common. This is large enough to cook a chicken. Halogen ovens and low fat fryers work by heating the food using infrared heat whilst circulating the heat with a strong fan – hence 'air fryer'. They don't just fry. Halogen ovens can be used to bake, roast, steam, sauté and stir fry. If you only want to cook chips then you would be better choosing the traditional low fat fryer as the smaller unit serves to concentrate the heat which is similar to frying. That said, some of the Halogen Ovens can certainly give the low fat fryers a run for their money such as the Tower T14001 and the Duronic AF1. If you would like the flexibility to cook a variety of meals in different ways then the halogen oven may be just the thing. Click here to go to a review and comparison table of the best low fat fryers and halogen ovens.
Low Fat Fryers Use Less Oil
Low Fat Fryers and Halogen Ovens make healthy fryers since they use less oil. Whilst these are sometimes referred to as no oil fryers, they do require some oil but only a little. This is probably the single most important reason why people are switching to them in their thousands. Less oil or no oil fryers means healthy fryers.
The low fat fryer has definitely made it's mark but just how good is it at frying your favourite food? Well, we have tried several of these and we can report that not all healthy fryers are the same. Some work differently, some produce better results and others have additional features. Some produce perfect chips and some are frankly disappointing. So, if you are considering replacing your deep fat fryer you should read on. However, if having read all about healthy low fat fryers and you are not convinced, go to our deep fat fryers page and see what's available over there. If you are feeling really healthy, we also have a page all about Steamers. Whatever product you choose, you can purchase directly from this website with great savings.
How do Airfryers or Low Fat Fryers Work?
The original healthy low fat fryer hit the market several years ago and had a rotating basket set at an angle which allowed the food to be basted in a pool of hot oil. This meant that the contents were fried in hot oil but didn't sit in the oil during the whole process. These rotating low fat fryers were the first and still exist. The more recent fryers heat the food using a powerful halogen lamp with a strong fan to maintain a consistent temperatures hence 'Airfyer'. To avoid burning the food, the contents are coated in oil but you only require a small spoonful of oil for the whole pan – hence the term 'low fat fryers' or 'no oil fryers'. If you are using frozen chips (fries) then you don't require the oil as frozen chips are already pre-coated in oil. In fact, unlike deep fat fryers, we found that frozen chips tasted better than home cut chips but not significantly.
Rotating Paddles
Some models provide a rotating paddle which ensures the food is moved around and therefore evenly distributed. Others have the rotating paddle as an option (some foods don't need one such as fish) and others don't have one at all. In our tests, those that don't have a rotating paddle (e.g. Philips) performed worst when cooking chips (fries) unless you shook them mid way through like you would with a deep far fryer. This is as because without the paddle they cooked unevenly resulting in some burning and some remaining 'firm'. In fact, these type of low fat fryers containing a paddle are ideal for chips and is one of the main reasons why customers buy them and one of the most cooked items they are used for.
The capacity of the low fat fryers is also a consideration depending on your family size. Most of these can cope with 1KG of contents which is about the same size as a family bag of frozen chips (fries) and on par with deep pan fryers. You can also find 1.5KG capacity fryers but these are more expensive but do have the option to use a second tier for cooking food. I this configuration you can place meat at the top and potatoes at the bottom. These larger low fat fryers are encroaching into the halogen oven space. If capacity is an issue then the halogen oven would be a good option. These are like air fryers, are much larger and still been used to fry chips using little or no oil although you would need to read our halogen oven reviews if you plan to use them for cooking chips as some are definitely better than others.
Health Benefits of Air Frying
Since the low fat fryers use less fat, they earn their name 'healthy fryers'. We cannot provide any hard facts about the difference compared to a deep fat fryer but some manufacturers claim that the there is an 85% less consumption of fat with the low fat fryer compared to the deep fat fryer. There are further benefits to be had since the oil is not reused as it tends to be in deep fat fryers. This means the oil does not become rancid. Rancid oil is formed by heating and re-heating and is responsible for free radicals. These free radicals are responsible for a range of illnesses such as raised cholesterol levels, obesity, weight gain and even cancer. Whichever way you look at this, low fat fryers can can only be good for those looking to reduce their fat intake for themselves and their families.
Cooking Times
Low fat fryers take slightly longer to cook than standard deep fat fryers – about 20 to 25 minutes depending on the model and quantity of food. However, they do warm up much quicker than deep fat fryers and so what you loose with one you gain with the other. You also have the advantage that unlike deep fat fryers, which have to be shaken and checked every so often, with the low fat fryer you just set them off and leave them to cook (Philips is an exception).
Our air fryer reviews have demonstrated that the low fat fryer / no oil fryer / Airfryer / Halogen Oven provides a healthy and viable alternative to the deep fat fryer. It cooks great looking and tasting chips (fries) without the health hazards often associated with deep fat frying. It can take slightly longer to cook but can be left to get on with it unlike traditional deep fat fryers fryers. However, some are definitely better than others and we do recommend you check our our reviews before buying.
