Airfryers that aren't a Philips

[backstreetboy]

Philips is finished:

Lol the Philips name is alive and well. All the spun-off companies still license it for good reason.

Not to mention the Philips kettle, toaster, 2x airfryers, 2x hair dryers, steam generation iron, Philips oneblade, 2 x toothbrushes (electric and battery), travel shaver, 2x hair cutters, 2x nose trimmers, body groomer, zillions of bulbs that I have all working great.

Ninja is better than the Phillips but we dont have it in SA

And the Ninja does its job beautifully on 110V 60Hz.

Only thing is , it's not an Airfryer. Please read the title of the thread.

What's your definition of an air fryer?

The box says "air fryer". The label underneath says "air fryer" (just snapped the pic below). It's an air fryer by every conventional sense of the term.

Not saying you are wrong, but what @Dan C is saying is that there is only one Airfryer (one word), a word that is owned by Philips. All the others are Air Fryers (two words). So the thread title is ironic because there can only be one Airfryer, and that is a Philips Airfryer. Thread Title should probably say "Air Fryer".

Crazy, I know! But we being ridiculous here...

Ah, get it. Thanks.

That raises the question whether the Philips Airfryer is really an air fryer.

You forgot to mention your second hand iPhone.
Could just as well be a Philips as well. We know it's Apple's secret.

I have to admit I wish this Ninja outdoor airfryer was available here.

Yes, @epah there are people in this world who make different decisions to you, and who might not agree with your assessment that the Philips is the best Airfryer in the world (I am not saying it isn't a good solid choice).

So with that being said I wanted to start this thread for general non-Philips airfryer discussions.

Last night I bought an Instant Vortex Plus 6-in-1 Air Fryer with ClearCook and OdourErase 5.7L. Got it on special for £89.
I know in SA its been fluctuating in price and is now sitting at R4k.

I have this after replacing my 5 year old Phillips. After 3 months use I can safely say I think it’s better than the Phillips.

Please buy a Phillips toothbrush so you can clean your mouth and have your sense of taste returned.

You don't trust any product reviews? Do you purchase based on gut feel ?

This is what the Philips crowd(read clowns) does not understand. Most people who owned and used different air fryers will not rate the Philips high or at least not superior to other air fryers. The Philips crowd have only used their Philips because they fell for the hype and marketing.
I have had the "Sunbeam" glass bowl for many years, I have used a Philips xl many times at our holiday place and I also have another brand new style air fryer currently.
Their is nothing special about the Philips, except for the price. And the longer I use the new style air fryers the more I'm thinking of buying another "glass bowl" air fryer/convection oven again. Mainly for the size and how much more easy it is to clean.

Maybe one of the reasons we don't get Ninja here is because of the high demand and not enough supply.

Lol all I got was fishtank and someone that doesn't have a dishwasher.
