I love it, been using it a few weeks now, I LOVED my smaller version of this one they stopped making it, and some reviews made me think this one isn't made as well, but I don't agree, the little one lasted me 4 years but I abused the heck out of it, slopping BBQ sauce on chicken etc, it got so loud from muck stuck to the fan, however I gave it to a friend who can clean anything, he took a thin utensil wrapped some paper on it and managed to slip it between the burners coils and get a lot of muck off, he says it works great now, no noise, but I love this one more so everyone wins, I LOVE the pause feature I need to pause a lot and check the food, this one is easier to clean and I have no idea why but it is, it's not as big as the measuements on this site, I those might be the box measurements cause it does fit under the upper cabinets, I love the track it slides out on, makes it easier to use, and of course it makes excellent fried/BBQ chicken, I love a rare filet so I mix saucy balsamic with salt free spike to make a paste that turns to semi-crust when the meat is still really rare, it's so good, and salmon I make a lot, coated with chipotle mayo, sooo delish, I cook everything at 400 and after air frying for so long I forgot I'm not really a good cook but I am with the air fryer not sure why but others agree, oh yea like asparagus, I can char it but it's still really moist, air fryers, at least the Philips ones, seem to lock in the flavors as it cooks, people I know who complain about air fryers just got the wrong brand, I'm convinced of that.

After much consideration and online research, we bought this Philips Air Fryer. My husband wanted a large capacity, I wanted something that would let him eat the fried foods he loves and me not suffer from grease-induced heartburn woes. This air fryer is all we could have wished for, and more. It is a bit difficult to get grease off the burner element at the top of the air fryer after a bacon-frying session, but otherwise easy to use and keep clean. My first try at using it was to make blackberry hand pies, a treat I remembered from my youth. I found a recipe online, made it up, and the results were terrific. So easy to do, the results outside-crispy, inside-moist, and absolutely delicious. We find ourselves using this air fryer several times a week, and not a single thing we've made has been less than delicious. Fried chicken came out amazing, battered halibut filets were better even than deep-fat fried, chicken-fried steaks were stupendous. And not a hint of heartburn, either!The size is workable for keeping on a counter top, we just push it against the back wall when not in use, pull it forward 5" or so when we're cooking with it. The top is flat, the black surface is easily kept clean and looks great with my other black kitchen appliances. The basket is very large, and you can get quite a bit of food in it at once. It says you can cook a 5.5 lb whole chicken in it, though we haven't tested that out yet. It has a pause feature that lets you open the unit, shake the contents around or turn pieces, then resume cooking as before without having to re-set everything. The basket assembly easily comes apart for cleaning, and it all goes in the dishwasher just fine. The fryer is amazingly quiet when running, and the controls on the front panel are easy to learn to use. My one and only complaint is that the cooking temperature is adjustable only in 25 degree increments. Most recipes call for much finer-tuning of temperature, and we've had to learn to make adjustments for that each time we work with a new recipe. Having the ability to adjust temperature from 350 to 360, for instance, would eliminate having to keep detailed notes and trial-and-error runs to get cooking times just right for greatly differing temperatures than the recipe calls for.We chose the Philips brand because all of the serious online reviews (from America's Test Kitchen, for instance) rated the Philips at the top of their lists, as reliable, durable, and easy to use. It was more pricey than other brands, true, but we figured that we would be using it for a long time to come and would be glad we paid the extra for the quality that Philips delivers. This air fryer has added a welcome and delicious new dimension to our culinary world.

I love this air fryer. It’s easy to use, easy to clean and has free recipes available for many Phillips products on their website. This Unit Cooks amazingly. I purchased this model 5 yrs ago and it’s still performing as if it was new. I do wipe it out after most heavy cook sessions to keep it working and no build up.
