I don't own all models, however, the professional has been highly rated. And I concur.

Since I've never used a Tfal fryer, I can't really compare them. As I understand it, though, the two items are completely different in their technology, as in a fryer compared to a convection oven. I'm afraid your question is like comparing apples to oranges.

I'm not sure of the difference, we bought it for my sister-in-law for Christmas. We got the AirBake Ultra by T-fal, I guess she swears by the air-bake branding.

I bought the pro myself. I wondered the same question before I bought, but decided on the pro for the simple reason I figured the pro would work more heavy duty. Mine works great and I'm happy with the purchase.

From what I understand the difference is that the Strutz Sole Angel is the 1st edition of the struts & doesn't have as much cushioning as the Pro option offers. The Pro is made out of a softer gel material that is much better & more durable than the Angel variety. But, the real "Pro" option does cost significantly more as you'll notice. The real "Pro" is the Blue ones listed here (I believe) & the regular, Angel struts are the ones you'll see that are in the Green color. I hope this info helps as I'm also putting a pair of the real "Pros" in my cart right now as I write this! :) From what I understand the difference is that the Strutz Sole Angel is the 1st edition of the struts & doesn't have as much cushioning as the Pro option offers.

I'm looking to buy one. Such a good question but no one seems to know the answer. :(update: I think they are the same except one is more cheaply built. But which one?? Who knows...could be the higher priced one!

Brian, I have no idea if there is any difference, as I have only experience with the "other" model. I just really like the one I bought from Amazon.

Sorry, I don't know. I didn't pay attention when I purchased it. I purchased it because I already had a T-Fal pan that I had received as a gift and I loved and I wanted to get another size. I can tell you they are great everyday pans.

From what I learned, they are both the same model. The U and the UA are identical. Only reason for the difference in suffix is for production tracking for different lots manufactured. Audiovox quality standards require strict monitoring for best performance of their electronics. My family enjoys our systems we purchased from them. They are great for the children. I like the fact that these in place systems don't have to be lugged around all the time. They are there when you need it. Also, no chance of fumbling with mounting and removal or dropping units and damaging them. We are very pleased. From what I learned, they are both the same model. The U and the UA are identical.

This one is in the professional line. I had their top of the line home model for over 20 years. I figured this would last until I die.

Thanks for posting this question. I've used & liked T-Fal frying pans for a while, which have always been perfectly flat. The one at my mom's house, however, has that hump in the center, which drives me insane! The hump makes it IMPOSSIBLE to actually saute or fry something in oil or ghee. I thought the pan was warped, so was looking for a replacement. If I bought this one, I would have jumped out of the frying pan into the fire!!! I see lots of good suggestions posted by others, so I'll be looking into those.

the "Ultimate" models have blank keys. the "Professional" models are the same keyboards, except with lettered keycaps.

We ordered the Professional, but received the everyday model. We reordered and the same unit came, so we just returned the unit. Sorry, but I have no answer for you as to compare of the two.

Here is a review that addresses some of the differences: The handle gets hot while cooking, March 28, 2011 By B. Le (Silver Spring, MD) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME) Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: T-Fal Ultimate Stainless-Steel Copper-Bottom 12-Piece Cookware Set (Kitchen) We own both set: this Ultimate cookware of 12 pieces and the Performance cookware of 10 pieces. This set, the Ultimate, has more pots for a cheaper price than the Performance set. However the handles of this set get hot while cooking, make it uncomfortable to handle. We would recommend the Performance set and wish T-fal makes more pots of that style.

Nothing. No difference. Also, if you order the pro, you will be charged more and still receive the base model because the pro can't be sold without a prescription. That happened to me and I ended up keeping the standard model out of convenience and the fact that it worked great. Save the money and don't get ripped off. Buy the standard model.
