Review
What this product is
Written after the analysis, from the same sources the score is built on: the manufacturer's documentation, available studies and verified owner feedback.
Cecotec's Duoheat 6500 is the budget option: €59.90 on cecotec.es for a 6.5-litre basket rated at 2,200 W. Its distinguishing feature is dual heating, with elements above and below the basket, which Cecotec markets as '3D cooking' and which should reduce the need to shake or turn food. A viewing window, a digital display, 12 preset menus and a 40–200 °C range complete the specification. Dimensions are 37.5 × 28 × 32 cm; the weight is not published.
The three-year warranty Cecotec states for Spain is longer than the two years most rivals here offer. Against that, the page says nothing about coating chemistry, dishwasher safety or noise, and shows no owner rating. We found no independent lab result for this model; OCU's comparator includes a different Cecotec, the Cecofry DuoLevel 10000 Window (1,867 g measured), not this one.
The wattage is high for the price class, 700 W more than Philips' 4.2-litre NA221, and as always the rating says little about consumption per batch.
Best for: a first air fryer on a tight budget, especially in Spain, where the warranty terms apply.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What does dual heating change?
A second element below the basket heats food from underneath as well, which Cecotec says reduces the need to turn food. No independent measurement of evenness was available to us.
Is the OCU result for Cecotec valid for this model?
No. OCU measured the Cecofry DuoLevel 10000 Window, a different model.
