What Chefman's charts look like as a set

The range on file. 3 models, split 2 single basket and 1 dual basket. They run 1200–1700 W and 3.4–8.51 L, with dials topping out at 400 °F–~401 °F. The median Chefman here draws 1700 W against 1700 W across every brand on the site. 2 of them have a preheat setting, which matters because a chart written for a preheated machine and one written for a cold start are not measuring the same thing — the model pages say which is which.

What is documented, and what isn't. 38 cook times from Chefman's own manuals, covering 14 of the 18 foods on this site.

Short or long against the rest. Of the 38 Chefman figures that another manufacturer also publishes a figure for, 29 land inside the band the other brands cover, 8 are shorter than anything any other brand publishes, and 1 are longer. That leans short: on those foods, following a Chefman chart means taking the food out before any other manufacturer would. Which of them is right is not something this site decides — the register keeps them side by side instead.

Where Chefman contradicts itself. Two Chefman manuals give the same food time ranges that cannot both be right. This is not a comparison across brands — it is one manufacturer's charts disagreeing with each other:

• Shrimp — TurboFry-Touch-Dual says 4–5 min at ~399 °F, Small-3.6Qt says 12 min at ~399 °F.
