Smith + Nobel
Like any other air fryer, it is quick and efficient; and I love the glass "basket" etc. The main thing I hate is the restriction of the set-in temps… Read more
and times. Not everybody cooks those things. It would make so much more sense to enable setting in a "favourite". Then I would be able to teach my husband to use it for himself, and he would need to push only one button. As it is, I have to do it for him every time because the temp and time require adjusting every single time. Absolute pain. I wish I had known that before buying.

OK For Price – Works well for price tho cleaning is an issue -being so small the walls get pretty grotty very quickly. Also first oven tray I have ever seen that rusts - with normal use.

The first time I was going to use the brand new ‘stainless steel’ pot was to cook pasta- had salted the water and was waiting for it to boil. I got… Read more
interrupted- so switched stove off ( before it boiled) and left pot with water in it- next morning the pot was unusable- rusty and tarnished- have never seen anything like it ( even with cheap pots) will return to place of purchase. My biggest issue is what if I had cooked the food and not noticed the pot until after we had consumed the crap that came out of the pot.

The top piece of the internal stem broke the very first time I used it, shredding very cold butter. (I had just cut it with a knife down to smaller… Read more
chunks). I don't think it lasted 30 seconds. It was a gift, so I don't have proof of purchase but the first photo was to show the gift giver that I had just washed it all and was going to be using it for the first time.
Used to be great – Have used these for over 10 years. The latest one I bought 20 March 2023. The glass bowl was extremely thin, chipped very easily and ended up with a… Read more
huge crack down the middle of it after a cook. Normally I would get several years out of one. This one only lasted 2 and a half months.
Great buy. It’s compact enough for pantry storage but the 8 litre basket is perfect for two people. Our roast pork and more importantly, the… Read more
crackling comes out perfect every time. We use it all the time, it’s really brilliant. Easy to clean too. The only issue is that the handle has cracked but it doesn’t affect the use in any way.
I had the same experience as previous posters, boils hard on low instead of a gentle simmer. Useless as a slow cooker, I can use a saucepan if I… Read more
want to boil my food. Have had slow cookers all my adult life, was a shift worker and found them fabulous for cooking while I was asleep. This is the first one I have had an issue with, certainly could not leave this one unattended.
This is the first time I've used an air fryer and I'm shocked that it is scorching hot on the outside. A large crack has appeared on my stone… Read more
benchtop right where I used it. The stonemason said it's because of the vents underneath the appliance. I needed to use some sort of protection underneath. Harris scarf blocked my review although it was completely polite and I'm not the only one who's bench split from this appliance!
Great Purchase – I purchased this smaller air fryer from Harris Scarfe on special $69.99. I was wanting a lightweight style for our caravan. It is perfect .It is… Read more
super light, easy to use and a great smaller size.I have used a couple of times now and it has cooked chips ,vegetables perfectly.Iam more than impressed and am thinking of swapping out my heavy , large Phillips one at home which cost $400 for the same. Very happy with my purchase and recommend
So simple and does the job – Very nice, stylish looking ice cream maker. Its so easy to use and ice ream is really good. Honestly really good spend of money (got it on special for $45).
Purchased Smith and noble 30cm stainless steel fry pan. Advises oven and dishwasher safe Have used twice To cook bacon and eggs and both times placed… Read more
in dishwasher and both times the base is clean but the sides to do not clean at all. Requires Scrubbing and soaking to remove but still not perfectly clean. Very very disappointing tried contacting Smith and noble about the issue but no response …. Why am I not surprised about that !
Great Mixer – My husband a retired baker was interested in buying a stand mix and didn’t want to spend a lot of money . Looking on the internet we found one at… Read more
Harry’s Scarfe with 1200 w with lots of good reviews. In the shop hubby decided to buy the red 800 w Smith + Noble Planetary retro stand Mixer because it could handle 1 kg flour, what the 1200 w could not, also it was sturdier and the price difference was only $ 20. Hubby tried it this morning and was very happy with the performance. The 1kg flour was easy handelt, did not move on the bench top, attachments are easy to removed and put on. Only the lid is a little harder to remove. A great stand mixer that does the job for a small price. Definitely 5 stars from us.
We bought it on special at Harris Scarfe for $119
Works well, Gives an excellent toast result. Not a quick machine – As the heading states. Had no issues with this machine. Had it for about 2 years. Just get the timing right, enjoy the the time to reflect. We toast… Read more
different styles of bread and use the different settings for good results. I have not toasted crumpets as I like to grill them.

Poor after sale service poor quality – One of the heating elements stopped working after 18months , no repair service offered by Seller Harris Scarfe as product only offer 12 months… Read more
warranty. I used an unbranded portable oven for 3 years before I purchase this without any issues .I thought a well known brand sold by a well respected company like Harris Scarfe would be better than an unbranded product and decided to purchase this unit . It is unfortunate to note that both the SMITH & NOBEL brand and Harris Scarfe have failed to live up to customers' expectations and being a loyal customer of HS I am really disappointed on customer service
Not a good experience so far – I'm waiting for feedback on this oven. Had it for 2to3 years and I've barely used it. It burns, even on the lowest temp settings. Anyone else had… Read more
this problem? Could it be a broken thermostat? If so, can it be fixed.? It's well and truly out of warranty by now. Many thanks
Uneven temperature. Absolute nightmare to clean. I bought on sale for $50 but will be returning and spending double to buy a better brand. Fail.

decent cookware – good quality non-stick surface and extremely hardy pieces. handles can get quite hot but with proper care taken that’s not a problem. no warping in the body throughout use and easy to clean.
Dangerous – Instructions said to cover deep fryer with lid, after doing so with correct level of oil in the fryer, oil came up under lid, spilt & sprayed all over bench top.
Hot water poured down my arm and onto the floor – I've used steamers before and they all seem to have problems or only last a few months, but none were as bad as this. I'd read one bad review and… Read more
one good review about this on the store website I purchased it from. I read the instructions before use and was using it correctly. I used it in the bathroom with the clothes hanging on the bathroom door. The three seperate times I used it hot water poured out of the steamer where the electrical cord comes out near the base of the unit, down my arm and on to the floor. It was all over the sleeve and down the front of the t-shirt I was wearing - not the garment I was steaming. After attempting to steam the front of one garment, the handle became too hot to hold, and hot water came out of the lock switch onto my hand. I put it on the bench before I got scalded and saw that the bathroom floor and cabinets were all covered in water - see photos. How did it do on the clothes I was attempting to steam? Not well. I tried a fine cotton skirt - 2/10, a viscose cotton blend jacket, 3/10, and a fine viscose top that was barely creased - 5/10. I'm not using it again as it's not safe and will take it back for a refund.
Do Not Buy – We bought this product in March 2022 worked well for 16 months and then it stopped working July 2023, a one-year warranty, so that finished in March 2022. Play it safe, Do not buy,
Horrible plastic smell – I cannot get the smell of plastic out of my air fryer, even after many times, cleaning and running on high
Quiet and light kettle – Purchased from Harris Scarfe for $39.99.I purchased for caravan but have now taken it inside the house to use as better than our sunbeam kettle. It’s… Read more
super light and so quiet.Its. hard to buy a quiet kettle and I’ve purchased models which mention “quiet” only to be disappointed .This is quiet. Recommended
Poor result only toasts one side other side still white,this is the second toaster tried,other replaced
Smith noble coffee gridner – The grinder was used in our holiday house. It lasted over 2 years but was only used about 50 times. The gears on the coffee capture cup with the blades has chipped and thus the grinder no longer spins the blades. Poor design buy something else.
Troublesome fryer – My first air fryer I returned to the store as it cracked , both the basket as well as the handle. This was when it was 4 months old. The store… Read more
replaced it with a new one, but again, the basket doesn’t slide in nicely, and the touch control panel is not responding properly. I often have to press the start button 4 or 5 times. The non stick coating is already coming off the rack in the bottom (within 2 months!) It does cook well, that’s why I gave it 2 stars rather than one.
Do not buy, even on clearance – Purchased while on holiday and unfortunately distance means cannot return. Harris Scarfe not interested. Got this in the cream. The logo smudged and… Read more
dripped black down the side. You only have to look at it and it scratches. Bad pour on it and overall it's a bad kettle. It looks like it is 5 years old and was purchased on 28/9/24
Very happy with the non stick inside of this pan. We bought two different sizes. I like to make pancakes and they're perfect and just slide out of… Read more
the pan. However, the lovely white outside edges at the base of the pan and also the stainless steel base have stained badly. I started off washing by hand, but now I've given up because there doesn't seem to be any point in being careful. The stains don't come off. I cook on a ceramic hotplate.
Good set of knives – Unfortunately a knife broke and the store was not prepared to give me a replacement as it was not deemed faulty. I thought customer service unhelpful so will not be shopping there anymore. I would have paid for another knife to go with set. Show details
A powerful blender – I started out with a 900 watt nutribullet, It cost me about 160 and was nothing less than a let down. It was a free standing blender that took off… Read more
once the cup screwed in. Unlike this blender which has an on off switch on the back, a blend, extra blend and pulse button giving you control of when you want it to blend or not with having out to pick it up. The bullet often leaker like a sprinkler where as this does not. It has suction cups securing it to the table. This blender cost me a total of fifty dollars and looks good.
Like other reviewers said, the seal sucked itself into the cup and was shredded so I measured the seal trench in the cup base. It measures with a bore Diameter of 90mm and a Thickness of 6mm. the same as a nutritbullet. So I bought four bullet seals and they fit this perfectly. A blender of this power would go for 200 - 300 dollars
Excited & Pleased – After buying another appliance from another store and finding it such a dismal product and not being able to get a return on the appliance even… Read more
though there is a serious defect with it...I then took my business elsewhere to purchase another slow cooker. I am bowled over by this appliance. Not only does it aesthetically look great, but it cooked to how it advertises and should do. Most pleased with your brand Smith & Noble...can't say much for the other brand or the stores dealings on returns on faulty goods. I would recommend this, and I will buy again should the need arises.
