Everything is fine but there are features

I am satisfied with the purchase. The cooking is superb. The quality of the device is excellent. There are three features that buyers should know: 1) cooking causes a strong smell and if there is no ventilation in the apartment, cooking is best done outside, the smell is stable for 6-8 hours, I had to buy a serving table on wheels for the convenience of moving the device and cooking food on the balcony 2) cooking takes 20 to 40 minutes is slower than in a microwave oven 3) accessories are large and need to be washed in a large dishwasher. In the end - a great device.

Worth the splurge!

When this Philips digital XXL airfryer came out, I jumped on it. We have a 2-person household, but the XXL interior allows us to cook for 2 without having to cook in batches. I am glad I stuck with the "traditional" basket air fryer style instead of going with an air fryer oven because the basket airfryer contains the mess, yet is easy to disassemble and clean; to clear out oil accumulating in the fan, I sometimes put a bowl of water in the airfryer to steam clean it. Prior to this purchase, I had acquired a Breville Smart Oven Air to replace a failing Cuisinart toaster oven; I knew from research that messy air fried foods would be a PIA to clean up, especially cleaning effectively and safely without accidentally harming the heating coils. For larger batches of air fried foods (potato wedges!), it is still more convenient to use the Breville. My husband surprised me by fulling endorsing the Philips XXL digital airfryer for 2 reasons: 1) potato wedges, and 2) "fried" fish. Chicken breasts and pork chops fared much better in an airfryer than in a pressure cooker, and air frying is more convenient than combining sous vide with pan searing. But, guess what? Frequently, if our dinner entree from the freezer is a bit scant, we augment our meal by airfrying hot dogs and then airfry the assembled dogs in buns - somehow the dogs taste extra special that way, and the inexpensive buns we buy don't disintegrate before we can polish off the dog.

Great tasting, easy to use and clean

When first purchased, didn't think it was going to be that great. But many said they loved it. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to use, how easy it cleans and how great the food came out. Especially chicken was great and was not greasy at all. I bought this for my mother and she lives loves it!

Everything I was expecting

I was very skeptical to spend this amount of money, however, this air fryer is everything I was expecting it to be. Very easy to use, the food is delicious, the clean up is easy.

Great fryer for me

When I decided to get an air fryer I was confused with all the different models/makers/sizes. I did some research on the pros/cons of different fryers, their capacities, and the ability to stop/start when cooking. I decided on the Philips brand simply because of the reputation and the higher than average ratings. Than it was a matter of which model air fryer I would purchase. I have 2 children, and wanted a fryer that would be able to handle a larger quantity of food, which was why I settled on the XXL model. The ability to stop mid cooking, and than pick up where I started was great. I didn’t want to have to constantly reset the temperature and time every time I wanted to check on the food cooking inside. The footprint isn’t that bad, considering the size of the cooking area. And clean up is relatively painless. Granted, there are pieces to wash (and I wash by hand, I do not use the dishwasher) and sometimes the mesh bottom is a pain to clean. But I did like the bottom of the fryer with foil to help with clean up, which makes it easier when I fry food with higher fat content (like wings - which are really tasty air fried). Overall, I love my new airfryer. Maybe some days I wish it was bigger (like when I have to fry 2 batches of fries for my kids), but I would recommend this fryer to anyone. It’s relativelt quiet, *easy* to clean, works beautifully, and fulfills its purpose with ease. I actually use this appliance more than my Instapot!!

GREAT AIR FRYER

I absolutely LOVE this air fryer! I listed a few photos to show some of the things I have cooked. I am still in the learning stage. I don't have a problem with cleaning it after each use, it is not hard @ all. I did buy the extra accessories. Baking pan, Grill, Party The one thing I did not like ...Not enough room to cook bacon. I will work on this. If I figure out how to do bacon without having to cut in small strips, I will post @ a later date.

Pleasantly Surprised!

I used this Air Fryer for the first time to fry breaded Cod fillets. Here's how I did it and what I will do differently next time. I cut three (3) very large Cod fillets into 12 pieces and fried in batches of four (4). I breaded them in Louisiana Cajun Fish Fry. Point to note - I use this same breading in my deep fryer and noticed that when fried in this Air Fryer the coating retained ALL of its zing - VERY spicy - I guess because it wasn't being doused in the fryer oil. Next time I will use 50% Cajun and 50% regular breading to cut the zing! I placed the pieces (4 at a time) in the Air Fryer and sprayed with olive oil to coat them. I used the "fish" preset and set the timer to 12 mins for the thicker pieces and 10 mins for the rest. I paused the cooking halfway through, turned the fish with a spatula and then sprayed again with the olive oil to coat. I pushed the control button to resume and finish the cooking cycle. The fish came out very well with a nice crisp to them. Next time to help retain that crispiness I will cool them on a cooling rack versus putting them on a plate with paper towel (forgot I had so much less oil to worry about it - the paper towel was not necessary!) The fish was moist and delicious. My family and I were VERY impressed. Clean up was a breeze. I waited for the Air Fryer to cool, wiped the bottom plate to remove the crumbs and then placed all basket components in the dishwasher. EASY! It was wonderful not to have to drain fryer oil and dispose of it! I can't wait to try chicken!

Great size and powerful

This is a great air fryer from Philips. I also have the smaller version turbo star from Philips, but sometimes I want to cook bigger size of meal and this XXL is great for that, (They are two great air fryers ) Very happy with this purchase. Very fast delivery by this company. Very well packed. Great addition to my kitchen.

Philips is the way to go!

I got hooked on air frying when I bought a very expensive Power Air Fryer Oven from a TV infomercial. It only lasted 5 months, so I was screwed when it just suddenly stopped working. The company refused to do anything since it was outside it's one month warranty. I did a lot of research, and finally decided on the Philips XXL Twin Turbo Air Fryer. It is expensive, But it comes with a ONE YEAR warranty. I have made tons of stuff in it, and LOVE everything about this machine! It has a large removable screen base pot above the "star" base. You can comfortably fit a small pizza in it. It makes the best frozen products! Crispy and hot fries, chicken tenders, shrimp, etc., in 10 minutes. It will hold a 5 lb. raw chicken and cook it to the same crispy-skin, tender, juicy meat perfection you get with a rotisserie; all the fat drips below the star and is ready to be drained when you are ready. Steaks, pork chops and hamburgers are a snap and cooked to perfection according to your preference, without splattering grease all over your stove and walls. Toasted subs are great! French bread pizza is perfection. Clean up is a breeze! I take my whole pot out, with the star, and the cooking insert and removable screen. I fill the base pot with hot water and Dawn detergent, add back the star, the cooking pot and screen and let it sit while I eat. Afterwards, it's just a quick rub with a Dobie, rinse and done. It also can go in the dishwasher, which I occasionally do. Unlike my first AF, this unit does not get hot on the bottom. The air is vented at the top all around. And it is a tiny bit smaller than the oven I had. I love everything about this air fryer. You may think it is expensive, but if you, like I, buy the cheaper model, when it breaks, you will have spent at least half of what this one costs. I would suggest you forego the cheap one and go with this one. Also, this is the digital model which is more expensive than the exact same non-digital model, which has now dropped in price.

The best Phillips Air Fryer

This is a great improvement over their other models. It's big. Pan and other accessory sized for this model are just starting to appear. I found an 8½ " pan from Infraovens.com that fits nicely. They have a selection of silicone pads that are helpful as well. This model is much easier to clean with the oil collection pieces below the basket. The pull-out removable basket helps solve the counter-space situation - one less part to manage. The digital readouts and controls are easy to use and understand. The pause control is handy when checking doneness or shaking the basket - remembers your setting when you continue cooking. Con: The 'done' chime is musical, and not loud enough for me to hear in the next room, as I was able to hear with my previous unit's 'ding' alarm. I love this device and use it several times a week.
