Completely Dead after 2 years
I bought the Philips Airfryer on February 14th 2018. Last week, I plugged in to use it and it is completely dead. So so disappointed. I paid $299.00 (It was $100.00 off from William and Sonoma online, original price $399.00) and I used it an average of twice a month mosty for peppers, tofu and fries. I called the Philips assistance and the warranty expired, I asked if they have assistance in Seattle area to fix it, nothing. So so disappointed. I will not buy another Philips Airfryer!!!!

Devastated
I have had my Phillips XL Air Fryer for nearly 4 years now & was so impressed I had purchased another one for a gift recently. I could not believe it that this wonderful machine died on me whilst in the middle of cooking dinner. It had been working fine then just stopped. No power at all showing on unit. Changed power outlets without success. Can't see if there could be a relay switch.

Great when it works
Had my Air Fryer for just under 2 years. Had the same electrical fault as everyone else. Took it back to the retailer who have sent it off to be repaired. It's now been 2 weeks and the repairer hasn't even looked at it. Repairer told me that it could be quite some time before it is even assessed and even longer if they have to obtain the parts to repair it. So much for a 2-year warranty!

Great for small things
It fries small things well but not larger things.
I usually use it for chips or chicken nuggets or chicken strips.
Its not very easy to clean properly, i use a dishwasher and it takes a few goes to clean it well.

More than expected, love it
Bought this on sale $299 and have been experimenting throughout the week
Roast veggies crisp under 30 minutes
Wedges amazing and 15 minutes
Cant wait to try more but super impressed, easy to use and cleaning is simple.
Only criticism is instruction book doesn’t really have any startup information but easy to find on the net
This is the best!

Philips..Expected Better Quality
I have had two HD9240s over 5 years. The first had display issues just outside the warranty period and required an $180 fix to replace the control module and power supply board. The second is 9 months out of warranty and have notice the draw runners are loosing its ball bearings. Poor design in incorporating bearing spacers which are effected by heat and disintegrate allowing the balls to fall off the runner. I have always had I high expectation of the brand name but sadly this has diminished after encountering these issues.

Great Purchase
I've been deliberating whether to purchase an air fryer for over a year and decided to take the plunge when this was on sale. I definitely don't regret it as we use our air fryer everyday if not every second day. I would consider this a medium sized air fryer, perfect for a couple. It's brilliant for cooking frozen foods and we have cooked steak and pork belly in it. Efficient, quick and time saving! My only qualm would be that there is a slight oil smell which spreads but other than, no regrets in my purchase.

Owned this airfryer for more than a year and I’m still in love with it. Regret for not getting it earlier. The machine cooks meat and veggies perfectly. Absolutely great for people who don’t know how to cook. U will be amazed how quick the machine cooks. Bought one for my friend for Christmas present and she loves it too.

It is simply wonderful.
Highly satisfied. I have cooked six different meals which are nice and healthy. Really like this product and strongly recommend. Easy to use, great for cooking quickly when time poor. Healthier cooking with no oil and fat drips away. I use mine everyday.
The product does require care, so please use as recommended and wash it at least weekly if you cannot daily.

I love it.
The outcome of this is between fried and baked, but it doesn't need a single drop of oil and only takes ~30min for wings and fries. The size is perfect for 1-2 people.Baked sweet potatoes with this fryer take only for 30 mins . usually it takes for an hour in oven. Very practical to use and easy clean with washmashine.

I loved this product having bought a smaller one 3 years ago, last year I got the XL one and it works great. although I have to say it makes a some what of a noise when its on but nothing annoying overall. would defiantly recommend it to those whom love healthy eating as this product sucks out the fat when cooking.
