This appliance has been a godsend with an allergy child. I had previously thought air fryers were an appliance that were just for those looking for a healthier alternative to deep frying but this is so much more. Most foods cook substantially quicker than a traditional oven so it makes for low fuss cooking

Pros
It cooks quickly
Preheating is often unnecessary
It’s not overly loud
Food quality is superb
Saves time with most recipes over and above pre heating of a traditional oven

Cons...Read more

I had one of the original philips airfryers for many years prior to purchasing this one. The original was finally on its last legs- it had started to lose its non-stick coating and was emitting smells whenever I airfried in it. I picked this one up new for a bargain ebay plus price of $300, and it's been fantastic so far. Although it's much larger in capacity than my original airfryer, the footprint doesn't feel much different, and it doesn't visibly take up a lot more space. The airfryer itself is easy to use, and you can select from a number ...Read more

This is the fifth Philips Airfryer I have purchased - all from TVSN. Purchased the original model around eight years ago and from the beginning I have been impressed with what you can produce and how quick and easy it is to use.

Have found that the XXL model is worth additional cost and gives you more space to cook. Currently have this model and the smaller Philips Turbo Star model on my bench at all times.

My first XXL model was worn out after daily use for a number of years thus I purchased this model recently. Can recommend it to anyo...Read more

As a first time airfryer purchaser I was very skeptical about the so called wonders I kept hearing about airfryers from a few friends that it generally went in one ear & out the other. Had any one of them brought over a small banquet feast they had prepared in an airfryer, I might have been more attentive.

However, it was on the advice of my personal trainer who had used one for years that I started to do some research. Everything I read and watched pushed me towards the Philips XXL airfryer mainly for its size (2 levels), user friendly & easy...Read more

First of all let me say that I am a fan of the Philips XL Airfryer. It had all the required features including a 'Favourites' option but was difficult to clean. I used it for over three years without a day's trouble and then got caught up in the hype about the new Digital XXL and ordered one. The old XL was passed on to a new home still in working condition.
The one redeeming feature of the XXL is the ease of cleaning. The operation though is much more cumbersome than the XL and there is no 'Favourites' button. The body of the Digital XXL is fl...Read more

Bought the Philip airfryer on 27th Oct and applied for the cashback on 11th Nov. Provided all the details and the full receipt but the claim was rejected on 29th Nov with clause 5.

Clause 5 - The claim was received without a fully paid receipt or tax invoice - "The purchase receipt must clearly specify the Store name, Store location, model number, date of purchase, receipt number and price paid in full."

Information and the receipt sent was accurate and fulfills all the clauses requirement. I showed it to at least 5 of my office colleagu...Read more

We were hesitant about the cooking concept and delayed purchasing an Airfryer for months. After seeing the Philips XXL and then doing extensive research on Airfryers, it was an easy choice to choose the Black Philips XXL.
Have cooked several meals with it and even though it has only been a matter of days, we are very pleased with the result. Home made chips are extra good.
A great fat free way to cook. Thanks Philips. Easy clean up.

It is now some 4 months since we purchased our XXL Airfry...Read more

The food it cooks is fantastic and so much healthier with less fat. However my XXL has oil/grease which sometimes leaks out onto my counter from inside the unit. What's causing this? Is this normal? I have had the unit for about 6 months, and my daughter has the same size machine and uses it for the same kind of cooking that I do, and she does not have a problem with the oil coming from the underside of the machine.

The oil comes out brown even though any oil in the bottom pan is clear or clean and only comes from the cooking food. I clean...Read more
