Great Machine just wish it was bigger
I got this from my mum when our oven was out of commission and it served our large family of 4 adults and 4 kids well for several months!
The only little quibble i would have would be that the basket is too small...
Also the instructions arent great if you have never used this type of product before but trial and error and after a few uses we were up and running! Well done Phillips!

Great appliance but needs to be made easier to clean
Great for frozen foods, roast pork and crackling. Also works perfect on sausage. Not great for spring rolls. Haven’t tried baking yet so can’t comment. Removing and cleaning basket is easy. Need to clean after EVERY use as grease that has been caked on will take more effort later to clean. Hard to get into or clean top section where heat comes from so over time you will get a build up of food splatters, grease and oil- this may turn you off using the product as it’s probably a little unhygienic to look at.

Nobody should be without one!
This is one of the best bits of Kitchen equipment we've ever owned!
Salmon fillets, fries, snacks, steaks, chicken breasts, sausage rolls, chicken schnitzels etc.
Can be a bit hard to clean, I use a Karcher Pressure washer to clean the basket.
Purchased in July 2021 at The Good Guys for $220.00.

I love this and can't live without it
I love this product. Bought it over 5 years ago and it's still going strong. I will need to replace the basket and cooking tray soon because over time the paint/finish does start to deteriorate but that is to be expected when you've used it nearly every day for years. Does the best roasted vegetables ever. Cut up 2 carrots and 2 potatoes, add a dash of olive oil, rosemary and salt. Cook for 10 minutes on 200 degrees. Then add the level divider rack and stick a frozen chicken schnitzel on top and cook the lot for another 10 minutes. If yo...Read more
u pop a bowl of broccoli, peas and zucchini in the microwave whilst you do this for 5 minutes you'll end up with a complete dinner in 20 minutes and it took hardly any effort at all. LOVE THIS PRODUCT!Purchased in June 2021 at Appliances Online for $369.00.

Best and healthy way of cooking
This was the best decision I made for our family, whilst I was never into heavy deep frying food, knowing we can have all the yummy foods just healthier. If I can cook it in the oven I can cook it in the fryer . Just purchased my second one.

Good, but wouldn't buy this one again
I've had this air fryer for around 6 years now. It was great to start with but over the years it's harder to clean (I used to hand wash, but have a dishwasher now & it still gets built-up grease on it.) It smokes a lot whenever there is anything a little fatty in it. I have to open the windows & doors to air the kitchen out or the smoke alarms go off. It's been a good size for just 3 of us (1A, 2C) but now the kids are getting older I find I need to cook more so do it in 2 or 3 batches which isn't always ideal.

Excellent air fyer
This air fryer is great for quick and healthy baking and frying. My daughter loves the crispiness. And we like it because the food doesn't come out soaked with oil. It's very easy to use. We got it as a house warming gift.
I put the basket and tray into dishwasher for washing. It takes up quite a lot of space but comes out clean.

Phillips Air fryer is a must in every kitchen.
I purchased the very first Phillips airfryer and it still works very well. Recently giving it to a friend who always wanted one. She loves it and as I did, uses it every day.We recently pitched another airfryer and it is honestly the best investment. Healthy easy cooking. I love it and so does my husband. We cook meat, sausages, cakes, homemade potato chips. Anything really. A very good purchase.

A bit small for my everyday use.
The cooking area is a bit small but I love how easy it is to use and cook especially frying foods which required a lot of oil. The price is okay too.

Was awesome but big fail
We loved our phillips airfryer cooked food well but we noticed it would smoke ! it cook almost anything but sadly after that magical year was up it played up we had a two year warranty so we took it in four weeks later many calls to phillips! no warranty as we didnt clean it was our fault. It was clenish but thats the type of product. So my advice is to buy a new cheap one with full replacement warranty dont spend over $100 and dont waste money getting a expensive one enjoy.

Wouldn't be without our Phillips airfryer
We find our air fryer so good for snacks on the go or for a meal at night. We use it for everything we would normally put it the oven but don't need to use oil. Everything comes out nice and crispy.

Essential part of my kitchen
I’ve had my airfryer for over six years, and I can’t live without it! Almost anything that can be cooked in an oven, can be cooked in the airfryer; but much faster and healthier. You can even freshen up bread rolls or do boiled eggs in it. I’ve found that I don’t use my ordinary oven at all now. Highly recommended!

Use this product every day! It's amazing
We have used it to cook chips, pies, sausage rolls, pizzas, dim Sims, onion rings, sausages, chicken legs, melted cheese on toast, jalousie nuggets and many other things. It's great as you don't need any oil at all making it much healthier. I haven't tried a roast yet but I am keen to try one.

Worth every cent
I love eating fried foods but i have never liked deep frying things because of the oil splatters. Now all i need to do is chuck them into the air fryer and it comes out golden and crisp, just like they're deep fried. I usually use it to fry popcorn chicken and fries, even just to reheat buns. It is also easy to clean. i always put some foil on the dish in between the mesh to catch the excess oil to make it easier for cleaning.

The only appliance you will ever need
I bought my first Phillips Airfryer this year and I have never looked back it cooks food quickly without all the excess fat and oil so far I have cooked the usual chips and frozen goodies all of which have turned out crisp and delecious however it also does pasta and veggie bakes to perfection as well as pork spare ribs and cakes as well as being able to heat up a frozen snack sized apple pie perfect for students as it it is easy and quick to use and clean

Omg best appliance ever
Got this as a gift. Best appliance ever used. Easy to use, cooks perfectly. Washing it just as easy. Soak it for a bit and scrub. Air dry it and put back it. Also purchased the XL one with digital setting to cook even more. Its quick and food comes out great. Especially steak. If i could give 10 stars i would. Please buy it.

I love this airfryer I just wish I had of purchased the bigger one. Only because the bigger one has levels so you can cook multiple types of food at once. I’ll probably upgrade soon. Very easy to use. Cooks like an oven without having to heat up a big oven. Quick and easy. Easy clean up. Highly recommend

Starwhite model - best thing since sliced bread
Have now owned and used it for 12 months and is the ideal size for a Darby and Joan couple like ourselves. With the addition of the optional platform insert, will cook a complete meal for two, so we have hardly used our oven or microwave griller in the past year. Meat, chips and almost everything else you can cook in the oven emerges perfectly cooked.
If we have any concerns, it does have a limited capacity, but is adequate for our needs for we rarely entertain any more. Also, the temperature parameter only allows 200C and the timer 30 minutes...Read more

this here, we appreciate your opinion! Happy frying. ;)Disappointingly though, as it approaches its second birthday, we find that the coating on the main basket is shedding. Although this does not appear to affect its functionality, its annoying to have to fish pieces of black lining out of your meal
