    The product, in the report: Farberware Air Fryer / Toaster Oven , stainless steel in color Model 201797 UPC 655772-01797-0

    I have contacted Wal-Mart where the appliance was purchased as I received it as a gift one year ago , It is a Farberware Air Fryer / Toaster Oven the unit came on when no one was at home, when I tried to turn it off , it would not turn off or let me change any of the settings on. If I did not come home when I did This could have set fire to my home.

    The product, in the report: Farberware Oil less fryer, Black, made by Kaloric

    I used the Farberware (Kaloric) Air Fryer that I purchased at Walmart to cook chicken. The unit was placed on my counter, over 10 inches away from my window, but after using the unit noticed my window frame had melted and warped. Air was coming out of the vent at an extremely hot temperature as to burn my hand if I placed it near it. I’m concerned that this product is unsafe and could be a fire hazard as well as damaging to anything placed in the hot air’s path even if it’s at the safe distance it says in the manual.
