Our verdict

ERATEC suits buyers who want a straightforward air fryer and a stand mixer from the same maker, at the lowest entry point in this ranking. The €0.89 starting price is the draw, paired with 10 programs in a 5.5-litre basket and a 2 years warranty, though capacity sits mid-table among the brands measured.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Lowest starting price of the brands measured: €0.89, ranking 1 of 87.
  • air fryer and stand mixer puts an air fryer and a stand mixer under one maker, so the fryer and the mixer come from the same support desk.
  • 10 programs, a 1,500 W heating element and dishwasher safe parts cover a normal weeknight with little handling.
  • Support runs on email, phone and help centre, and a spare parts shop keeps parts available after the sale.
  • Shipping reaches DE, BE and BG, with 2 years of cover attached to the machine.

Cons

  • Capacity is the trade-off: 5.5-litre ranks 45 of 69 brands measured, which suits a household rather than a party.
  • The range stops at air fryer and stand mixer, while GASTROBACK covers air fryer, multicooker and blender, so multicooker, blender and processor work sits elsewhere.
  • Delivery is limited to DE, BE and BG, so buyers outside those markets need another source.
  • Cover runs 2 years, and that term is the figure to plan around for a stand mixer kept over the long term.

Who it suits

  • Shoppers in Germany, BE and BG who want an air fryer and a stand mixer from the same maker.
  • Households cooking in small batches, given a 5.5-litre basket and 10 programs.
  • Buyers who want a spare parts shop and 2 years of cover rather than a long feature list.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Cooks after a multicooker, blender or food processor: GASTROBACK lists air fryer, multicooker and blender, a wider set than ERATEC's air fryer and stand mixer.
  • Shoppers buying only a multicooker: Chef iQ's range is multicooker, so its focus matches that single appliance better.
  • Buyers who want blending and processing alongside air frying: Daewoo Electricals lists air fryer, blender and stand mixer.

Core features

The air fryer basket holds 5.5 litres and runs 10 programs, so most cooking runs from presets rather than dial settings. Its parts are dishwasher safe, which takes the scrubbing out of the routine, and a mobile app is included for starting a batch away from the kitchen. Cover runs 2 years, and a spare parts shop keeps replacements in reach once something such as a seal or a handle fails. Capacity is the trade-off to weigh: 5.5-litre suits a small household rather than a full party.

How it compares on our data

On price from, ERATEC sits at 1 of 87 brands, ahead of where it lands on the other two measures. Capacity runs the opposite way at 45 of 69, so the low starting price comes with a smaller basket than most of the field. Programs sit mid-table at 23 of 60. The pattern holds across all three: entry price, programs and capacity have been traded against each other, which is the deal a first-time air fryer buyer accepts.

The company behind it

ERATEC is sold by ERATEC-GERMANY GmbH, a company based in Germany that has traded since 2003. A trading history that long matters in a category where baskets, seals and heating elements look similar across many makers. Support is published as email, phone and help centre, so a help centre, an email route and a phone line are all there, and help does not depend on the app. Buyers who want a named legal entity behind the brand and direct contact routes have both.

Frequently asked questions

What does ERATEC cost?+

Prices start at €0.89, the lowest starting price among the 87 brands measured in this ranking, against a site median of €96.46. An appliance like this is bought outright rather than on a plan, so there is nothing to renew, and the only later outlay is a spare part or a repair once the 2 years of cover runs out.

Is the basket big enough for a family?+

The basket holds 5.5 litres, which suits a household of a few rather than a full table. Capacity ranks 45 of 69 brands measured, so this is where the low entry price is spent. If you batch cook for many, a larger basket from a wider range is the better buy.

Does it come with an app?+

A mobile app is listed alongside the machine, so the 10 programs can be set from a phone instead of at the dial. Because a 5.5-litre basket heats quickly, starting a batch away from the kitchen is the practical gain. Everything the app does maps back to programs on the machine itself.

Are the parts dishwasher safe?+

Dishwasher safe parts are listed, so the basket and tray can go straight into a machine instead of being washed by hand. With 10 programs and a 5.5-litre basket, the parts used most often are the ones that clean most easily. Most brands in this category make the same claim, so treat it as the baseline rather than a differentiator.

Where does ERATEC ship?+

Shipping is published to DE, BE and BG, and the company behind the brand, ERATEC-GERMANY GmbH, is based in Germany. That makes delivery straightforward across the listed markets. If your country is not on that list, the range is not published for it, so check your address before ordering.

What support and warranty come with it?+

Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so a help centre, an email route and a phone line are all offered, and a spare parts shop keeps replacements available after a purchase. Cover runs 2 years, which is the term to plan around if you keep a stand mixer beyond its first few years.

Is ERATEC a multicooker brand?+

ERATEC makes air fryer and stand mixer, so an air fryer and a stand mixer. A multicooker, a blender or a food processor does not appear in that range, which is the ground GASTROBACK covers with air fryer, multicooker and blender. If one of those machines is on your list, GASTROBACK or Daewoo Electricals suit that part of the kitchen better.

Which models are worth looking at?+

Reference models are published and cover an air fryer, a stand mixer, a pizza stone oven and a multigrill. The air fryer is the model that carries the specs compared here, at 5.5 litres and 10, and it pairs with the stand mixer to cover frying and mixing from one maker.
