Sort off. First stuffed the mushrooms with cream cheese, then I used arrowroot instead of flour, and Southern Coating Crumbs (extra thick) instead of breadcrumbs, mixed it together. But probably only used less than half the amount of their recipe. Then I just brushed with olive oil, need to get a spray bottle again.

I don't understand your logic. You post a video of how great food can be made in an air fryer and how it replace an oven. Yet the guy in the video does not use a Philips. Then the next day you claim a Philips will produce better food than other air fryers. Yet not your or any other video shows people making great food with a Philips. They always use other brands?
And no, I am not claiming other brands will make better food, air fryers are all the same. I am just confused by your logic.

You don't want to be the one seen on YouTube promoting a Philips. You might as well tattoo poef on your forehead.

To what benefit?

Avoiding PFAS is the benefit.

The snapshots you guys have all posted do look lekker, but I'm on a personal crusade here.

Just cook with the extra tinfoil left over you used for your hat.

I mean this isn't a terribly helpful comment. I could forgive that if it was funny but... it's not.

PFAS chemicals are pretty bad. They may or may not have health impacts for humans in the trace amounts that you'll get in your air fryer (or indeed your AirFryer) but the industrial processes used to make stuff with teflon coatings is pretty bad for plants, animals, etc:

PFAS chemicals overview | ATSDR

Since the 1950s, PFAS chemicals have been used in non-stick cookware, water-repellent clothing, stain resistant fabrics and carpets, some cosmetics, some firefighting foams, and products that resist grease, water, and oil.

Anyway, not to derail the thread. Just to substantiate why I asked. Carry on as you were, I really like the idea of the airfryer but I don't *need* it since I am already a pretty decent cook using conventional methods and I'd rather put up with the extra inconvenience than introduce unnecessary teflon into my life. (I enjoy cooking so it's not really an inconvenience for me.)

Seems to be teflon free https://www.bestbuy.com/site/questions/philips-air-fryer-black/6369449. All the energy and environmental savings will probably make up for it anyway.
 
Checkers has the Philips xl on special at R2999. Considering it but just bought a bunch of big stuff from my my colleague that's emigrating so don't have the funds this month. Might get it later if it's still available at that price.

XXL or XL? Not a good price if it is XL.

It's a 6.2 litre, the XL, so that's not a good price at all? Seems large enough for me, how much should it be?

Then it is not a good price. Checkers usually has specials on it going from R2000 up to R2500, dont pay anything over that for the XL.
Edit: The XL is amazing(Dont get anything smaller than the XL) and it is the one most people on here have. The only issue is the R3k price tag in your case.

Can get it for cheaper later. Super happy with my XXL I got for R3000

Yep, everyone still using the Philips while there are much better airfryers for around the same price.

Upgraded from the Philips XL to the Milex 23L. Everything tastes better in the Milex and it cooks in the same time.. Fries, pizza, schnitzels, lasagne, roasted veg, whatever.
