Product Information

We also cook with them quite regularly in the Lab and at home and have developed countless air fryer recipes. Equally, the pancakes, though they cooked quickly, again were cooked right through with an even colour. The box itself explains all options: max crisp, air-fry, bake, reheat and dehydrate but, if you’re too excited to bother, a comprehensive quick-start guide and instruction booklet will do the same. Find everything from counter-top appliances such as the best air fryers and best stand mixers, through to more cookware reviews like the best saucepan sets and best cast iron skillets.

We’d most recommend the Philips Premium air fryer when you can catch it on sale, which happens a few times a year, often in the fall. The Reuse Network lists the nearest charities and community projects that will welcome your old gadgets. A note on size: We’ve found the listed capacities of Philips air fryers to be inconsistent and inaccurate. It’s a smart looking machine with flat, touchscreen controls on the hood, tactile accents on the handle and useful cord storage at the back. The key to crisp fries was to peel and soak the potatoes in cold water for half an hour to remove starch, before drying thoroughly.These machines are slim, look inoffensive, and have small footprints for air fryers of this capacity.

One of our only irks was the navigation of selecting your function and the ambiguity of some of the function icons. Dehydrate fresh ingredients to create healthy dried fruit snacks and vegetable crisps, make your own beef jerky and homemade dried herbs. That said, if you’ve recently bought an air-fryer, I would advise trialling the times and temperatures first as each model varies in size,” says Samuel. Included is a selection of new releases and firm favourites that continuously hold their position against new brand models. Designed to cook like steel and clean like non-stick, this frying pan is ideal for searing meat and veggies.

Our salmon, air-fried for 8 minutes at 180C – could have also done with an extra five minutes to crisp up the skin underneath, but otherwise had good flakiness and flavour.

The temperature dial turns smoothly and without much force, but the timer dial requires more strength to turn. This design causes food to cook quickly, as do other elements like the use of perforated trays, which help increase airflow, and a small-capacity design, which helps create a high-heat environment.As they tend to have a smaller cooking area than oven-style fryers, in testing we found even results were more likely if the cooking was paused occasionally to rearrange or toss the food around. The temperature is also set via a dial and doesn’t offer many options, but we found the Dash was still a good pick since we use its maximum temperature of 400˚F to air fry most foods. Additionally, we compared the cooking capacity of each model, and we took note of any egregiously noisy fans or annoying beeps. Through our Lab tests, at-home use and recipe development, we've found that most foods cook best at high temps, like 400˚F, for short periods of time.
