Philips is by far, one of the best-known appliance manufacturers in the world. The company makes good-quality products, designed to bring the absolute customer satisfaction to its buyers. The Philips AirFryer HD923026 is no exception. With its great set of features, ease of use and reliability, this kitchen must-have comes highly recommended by some of TV’s favorite faces. If you don’t watch daytime television, but still want an excellent air fryer for your home, Philips’ HD923026 will deliver.

Ease of use

The Philips AirFryer HD923026 is very easy to use, and it’s especially user friendly since you fully operate it from a simple, yet elegant, digital touchscreen interface. Since this fryer uses almost no oil when it cooks, it’s also much easier to clean and it produces much less of that nasty oil odor that many traditional fryers struggle with. Less oil also means less mess and easier cleaning. Especially since the nonstick drawer and the removable basket are both dishwasher safe.

The Philips AirFryer HD923026 is easy to use, easy to maintain and it’ll look great on your counter. And while it may be a bit bulky, this air fryer packs the innovative “Rapid Air Technology” that ensures your food is cooked to perfection, each time you start the appliance. The HD923026 comes with an abundance of useful features, some of them being a 60-minute delayed start, an auto-off ability and a “done” indicator. Since it can cook more than 1.8 pounds of food at once, this air fryer is perfect for medium-sized families.

Pricing

Philips, sells its digital air fryer on their website for $249.95, the same price Amazon offers. It comes in both black and silver with no price change if you opt for a different color. This appliance comes with a standard one-year guarantee while additional protection plans can be purchased on Amazon’s website for an extra fee.

Performance

While most products advertised by celebrities turn out to be less than great in everyday use, the Philips AirFryer HD923026 is among the few that deserve the high marks and celebrity endorsements. This digital air fryer uses the latest “Rapid Air Technology” systems to cook your food fast with as little as a tablespoon of oil, or less. This new “tech” works by circulating new hot air throughout the frying basket, frying your food evenly, with minimum oil needed.

This air fryer is one of the most powerful in our review. In its not-so-small body, it packs 1,400 watts enough to be one of the fastest, most efficient fryers of this type on the market. This much “juice” also means that this appliance might overburden the power circuit in your home, so you might want to check where you plug it in, before you initially start it. Most homes today are built to withstand much higher wattages than this, but if you live in an older house or apartment you might see a breaker in your home go off. With enough power to make you worry about the wiring in your home, the Philips AirFryer HD923026 cooks your food to perfection, even with the basket filled to the maximum.

The HD923026 also comes with a basket big enough to hold up to 1.8 lbs of various food you’d like to cook. And while it might not be the largest on the market, you’ll find that this air fryer’s basket is big enough to cook more than enough food for a medium-sized family. And as if that’s not enough, this appliance comes with a double layer frying rack you can stock with your choice of burgers, wings or fish you can fry, bake or just grill. Philips’ air fryer has the innovative “Rapid Air Technology” to thank for the versatile choice of cooking options.

To ensure that your food is cooked thoroughly and perfectly, this air fryer comes with a digital touchscreen interface that lets you adjust the fryer’s temperature up to 390°F. The stylish, state-of-the-art digital touchscreen lets you manage the temperature making sure your food is prepared in perfect conditions. The screen can also be used as the main interface from where you can control all the other functions this appliance offers. One of the best features of the Philips AirFryer HD923026 is it’s preset cooking timer that allows you to start cooking up to 60 minutes from when you’d like your food to be ready. It also has a ready indicator that alerts you when your food is done. The auto off feature makes sure your appliance turns of when it’s not in use anymore, preventing overcooking or possible hazardous situations.

And while it features a modern, sleek design, this air fryer is quite bulky. It weighs more than 15 pounds so it’s not the easiest appliance to move around. Nevertheless, thanks to its many advanced features and its unique cooking technology, this air fryer is worth the look, even if you have to get someone to help you move it.
