Customer Reviews for Philips - Air Fryer - White/Gray

We've really loved using our air fryer. It actually does what they say it does! It's made cooking at home fun again. We leave it right on the counter and when we run into a roadblock for what to have for a meal, we come up with something to put in the fryer. The only reason I gave it 4 stars for design was because I wish the basket was a bit bigger to cook more at once. But we cook in batches and put it in the oven to keep the food warm. I was a bit skeptical at first but for health reasons I wanted to try this. We were pleasantly surprised. So far, this has been a quality product.
Pros: high quality performs well
Cons: small basket
I would recommend this to a friend!

I've used an Air Fryer for a while and just upgraded to my new Philips. It does a great job--I use it many nights instead of my oven which is wonderful in the summer. I did spiralized sweet potato which turned out crispy and perfect and then Parmesan Chicken Breasts. The chicken was crispy on the outside but so moist inside--and only a spritz of olive oil before cooking. Love fried foods but didn't want the calories--this is awesome. And cleans up like a charm. Highly recommend.
Pros: easy crispy food without the oil easy clean up

When I ordered this I was worried that I wouldn't use it enough to warrant the price and that it would end up at the back of a cupboard. I had nothing to worry about. I use it at least once/day, sometimes more. It is incredibly easy and quick to use, is easy to clean, has way shorter cooking times than the oven and the food comes out as if it has been deep fried except without the oil. Really fantastic.
Pros: fast, reliable, great results, easy to use, big enough for two people
Cons: not big enough to cook for more than two

I have gone through 3 other brands which cost must less and after opening the box I could immediately see the difference in quality. My only suggestion on this model is that the temp dial should be better labeled for temps instead of dots between main temps

Originally I got this thing just so I could eat fried food like curly fries, fries and fish sticks. I'm exceptionally lazy and quite an incompetent cook to boot. This little gadget is quite the time saver and pretty much does the cooking for me. Just stick your food in the bin, set the temp/timer and you're done. Really simple and easy to use and cleaning the basket is pretty easy also. The only real "downside" to this is trying to figure out the cooking times for your food. There are some instructions on, generally, how long to cook stuff but it can vary so sometimes you'll get partially frozen/cold food. There is a bit of a learning curve as a result.
Pros: easy to use, easy clean up, quick and easy
Cons: figuring out cooking times
I would recommend this to a friend!

Fried taste without the nutritional hit in an easy to clean appliance

The overall rating on this product is outstanding. The taste is great, and not having to use any preheating is a game changer.
The device takes apart easily and runs through the dishwasher for a quick clean-up.
My only slight issue is that the timer is a little hard to turn for arthritic hands.
Otherwise; it works as advertised, has a small footprint, and produces terrific results.
Pros: easy clean, no pre-heating, quick
Cons: manual timer hard to turn
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have cooked up frozen French fries and they are excellent. I use the unit most often for skinless chicken thighs. I dip them in an egg wash & bread in Panko crumbs and they are crisp on the outside, juicy inside. I also love the way my salmon & cod filets come out. I just salt them, dot with a bit of butter and lay a thin slice of fresh lemon & lime and they come out perfect. Everything cooks up in half the time of oven preparation and little excess heat is generated. The only downsize is the short length of the unit's power cord.
Pros: minimal cooking time, little heat generated by unit
Cons: short power cord

I purchased 2 of these air fryers, 1 for me, the other for my sister and I am disappointed with this product.
If you remove the basket during the cooking process, the machine does not automatically shut down. You have to unplug it before removing the basket. And, you cannot stop the timer once it's set;
The temperature dial is poorly marked. Good luck trying to set the dial for 380 degrees for example. Even 350 degrees is guess work.
I recommend purchasing a machine with digital settings.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
