I see lots of reviews concerning french fries, how about fried zucchini, mushrooms, okra, etc?

Mushrooms hold up really well. Zucchini holds up ok but is better left in for only a short time. I've never tried okra in the ActiFry.

having bought many deep fryers in my life I consider this a wonder machine it is not noisy easy to clean and it came with a recipe book and I also purchased a recipe book for it on Amazon best machine I've bought I hope this helps you

I would define the product of this expensive machine: "heated up and dried" at best. It is incredibly noisy and unfit for purpose. See one in action before you invest the money.

It would not be fair for the other brands, if I answer that cause I hasn't used the other ones they have now. But for the price is a great product. Is small so for french fries you have to use small to medium potatoes so they can fit. And for other vegetables is good also.

Yes. Definitely. It's good for cooking, it's not my favorite for frying food, it's slow and not hot enough.

I'm sure UberChef answered your concern. So far, I've used it for zucchini and cucumber and it works great!

I have only tried chicken and I would say no it does not fry just as good. You have to be careful not to over cook and you can't really put too much meat in at once for the best results. It does taste fine though so it is worth buying.

Everyone has their own taste but I happen to like eating dried mushrooms. As far as salads...ummm?? you have to remember that these are crisp. They are best, re-hydrated in water and then put in casseroles, pizza, chicken-a-la-king, spaghetti, creme sauces, etc. hope this helps you decide. I like them a lot. They sure are nice to grab a handful and throw them in. Plus they last for years and years. I've dried my own for years and tried these. I like these better than my own because they are freezed dried not just dehydrated (I dry all kinds of mushrooms). Dried or freezed dried is a GREAT way to have plenty on hand at all times. :)

I tried mackerel fish it was good, but not as good as frying. Check temperature and doneness often.

I've used it extensively as a kadhai for Indian cooking and it works wonderfully for that, though I haven't tried it for deep-frying.

This product dice potatoes but it is not suitable for fries. There are other gadgets that make cut potatoes into julienne and thicker fries.

I was wondering the same thing so I searched the reviews. I discovered this in D. Greenbaum "DoctorDave"'s review on March 19, 2014: "crisping up some tofu was amazing." That pretty much sold me!

Makes great fries, fried chicken and chickenfried steak. I don't know about donuts, but I don't see why not.

Definitely, I always remove the basket to fry chicken parts, onion rings, hash brown patties and fried green tomatoes. Wonderful fryer, best I've had and believe me I've had all the FAMOUS CHEF Ones and they can't hold a candle to this one.

Yes you can fry other things besides a turkey and the cooking time depends on what you are cooking... Google would be able to let you know how long to cook lets say fish or chicken
