What the listing actually tells us about the Upgrade New 12L Commercial

From the title alone, the Upgrade New 12L Commercial Air Fryer is listed with 12L and Oven-style. That is a starting point, not a guarantee. Sellers often reuse photos and titles across several versions, and litres and watts in the title are the seller's claim, not a figure measured by an independent lab.

Before you order, open the full listing, read the specification table, scroll through buyer photos and check that the version you pick in the drop-down (plug type, colour, capacity) matches what you want.

Capacity explained: what 12L means for your kitchen

Capacity is the first number to check on any air fryer, and here the title says 12L. In everyday Malaysian cooking, that is roughly right for 5 or more people, whether you are doing ayam goreng, fries, nuggets or frozen karipap.

Remember that a bigger basket needs more counter space and more power, so choose the size you will actually use every week, not the biggest you can find.

Power, voltage and plug: what to check for Malaysia

On power, the title gives no watt, voltage or plug information in the title. Malaysia uses 230V with 3-pin Type G (UK-style) sockets, so look for a 220V to 240V rating and a UK or Type G plug. An EU or US plug will not fit without an adapter, and a cheap travel adapter is a poor match for a high-watt appliance.

Watts also affect speed and electricity use: 1,000W to 1,300W is typical for compact models, 1,400W to 1,800W for family sizes and 1,700W to 2,400W for dual-basket and oven types.

Who is the Upgrade New 12L Commercial for in Malaysia?

This is an oven-style air fryer in the multi-function group. It suits households that bake, roast and fry, such as families who make kuih, roast chicken or cook several trays at once. It acts as a small oven as well as an air fryer.

It is larger and heavier than a basket model, so measure your counter and leave clearance for the vents.

What can you cook? Malaysian favourites

An air fryer works well for ayam goreng, chicken wings, ikan bakar style fish, keropok, frozen karipap, spring rolls, nuggets, fries, pisang goreng and reheating leftover rice snacks. Most foods benefit from a light brush of oil and a single layer, and you should shake or turn the food halfway.

Start with the temperatures in your manual, usually 180°C to 200°C for chicken pieces and fries, and check doneness with a thermometer for chicken. Marinated or battered foods with wet coatings need care, so pat them dry first.

Running cost: how much electricity does it use?

Electricity use is simple to estimate: kilowatts times hours. Check your own bill for your rate per kWh and multiply. Because an air fryer cooks small batches quickly, it is often cheaper to run than heating a full oven for the same job, though results depend on what you cook.

Keep the vents clear and avoid overfilling, because a crowded basket takes longer and wastes energy.

Is RM142.71 a good price? Value check

At RM142.71 (was RM198.21), this multi-function air fryer sits in the mainstream band for Malaysia buyers. That works out to about RM11.89 per litre of basket capacity. A discount shown on AliExpress can change daily, so look at the final price at checkout, including shipping and tax.

The listing has 3 recent orders and is rated 73.3% positive by buyers. Those are popularity signals, not proof of quality, so read recent reviews with photos.

Shipping, tax and returns for Malaysia

AliExpress lists only items that can ship to Malaysia. Malaysia may charge sales tax on imported low-value goods, and AliExpress can collect it at checkout. Shipping and the final total are confirmed before you pay. Delivery times vary by seller and shipping option, and bulky appliances can take longer, so check the estimate before you pay.

Air fryers are large and heavy, so inspect the box when it arrives and take photos if it is damaged. Check the return policy and warranty before ordering, and use AliExpress buyer protection if the item does not arrive or does not match the listing.

How to check this listing before you buy

Open the listing and run through a short checklist. First, check that the capacity, watts, voltage and plug type in the drop-down match what you want. Second, read the most recent reviews with photos and search for words such as 'smell', 'peeling', 'plug', 'noisy' and 'stopped'. Third, check the seller's rating and how long the store has been open.

Last, compare two or three similar models on this site. If one multi-function listing has far more orders, a higher rating and clearer photos, that is usually the safer choice. Tengok review dulu sebelum beli.

Safety and care: keep it running well

Use a proper 3-pin Type G socket at 230V and plug the air fryer straight into the wall, not into a crowded extension. Leave space around the vents as the manual says, never cover them, and keep the cord away from the hot surfaces. Run it empty for a few minutes first to burn off any factory smell, in a ventilated room.

We cannot verify SIRIM or Suruhanjaya Tenaga approval from a listing, so check the label on the unit. Wash the basket with a soft sponge, avoid metal scourers that scratch the coating, and stop using the unit if the coating peels or the cord gets hot. We have not tested this product.

Verdict: should you buy the Upgrade New 12L Commercial?

Our take on the Upgrade New 12L Commercial Air Fryer: a multi-function option with Oven-style, listed at RM142.71. It makes sense if the size and power suit your kitchen and the latest reviews are good. If you need something smaller, bigger or with two baskets, compare it with the other air fryers in this category.

Pendek kata: check the specs, read the photos, then decide. The button goes straight to the AliExpress listing.
