5000 SeriesDual Basket Airfryer

Having used the Philips steam airfryer now for a few weeks I can honestly say I am delighted with the machine.I have used all 3 functions and each one performed extremely well.I have steam airfiyed a whole chicken in 1 hour which turned out very succulent and the skin was crispy.I now only steam my vegetables which I find much more flavoursome than boiling,carrots are the best.Its a very well built machine and looks fantastic,its also very quiet.I have used the clean function which seems to work very well although after cooking more greasy or oily foods I preferred to hand clean.I can highly recommend this machine.

Excellent Nothing to dislike about this airfryer. It has so many different cooking functions it’s fabulous Cooks food evenly and quick and an amazing cleaning function. It looks good on the kitchen counter. The dual basket is a great invention can cook different foods at different temperatures and times it’s truly amazing 100 times better than my previous airfryer. Saves so much money compared to cooking with gas. I use it everyday. .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having used quite a few air fryers over the years, I wasn't expecting this one to be quite as impressive as it is! After several weeks of testing, the Philips 5000 Series has definitely become my favourite. What really sets it apart is the flexibility of the baskets. Being able to switch between a 6L and 3L cooking space and one large 9.5L basket is incredibly convenient. With three adults and a child to feed, having that extra space makes preparing dinner so much easier. I've also noticed a difference in the cooking performance. The RapidAir technology gives food a beautifully crispy, golden finish, and meals seem to cook approximately two minutes faster than with my previous air fryers. The steam features are another welcome addition, helping food stay juicy and tender rather than drying out. Cleaning is fairly straightforward thanks to the SteamClean function, although it isn't completely hands-free. I've found that removing some of the grease beforehand gives much better results. The only downside for me is how much counter space it takes up. It's certainly not a small appliance, so that's something worth considering if kitchen space is limited. Despite its size, I think it's a brilliant addition to the kitchen. The versatility, cooking performance and convenience make it well worth recommending, especially for families!

This is a big upgrade from my old trusty air fryer also a Philips. One of the original ones when air fryers started coming out. That old fryer does only one thing - air fry. This new and much bigger machine can do everything I need in a kitchen. Fry, bake, heat and my favourite feature , steam. And it even combines steaming with frying resulting in crispy outer but still juicy inner. It has 2 baskets and it self cleans too. What more do you need!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally a decent sized airfryer that comfortably accomodates a a roast with the sides, or a whole pizza (had to cut into half and play a little, but I managed to fit it in.) It is very convenient that it allows you to use it as one large or two separate compartment, so you can control the temperature and time setting either as one large unit or two separate onea. And if you choose the latter (it can be done easily with the divider included), they are still big enough to cook for a family of four in one round. I love the steam function, it made my roast chicken's skin so crispy but the meat inside was juicy. Also the veggies were tender next to it and not dry at all. The touch buttons give it a clean look that's easy to maintain, the basket cleaning is also a breeze. I grow to love this airfryer so much, it saves me so much time and effort and I'm still able to cook hearty and healthy dinners for my family, while getting to spend more time with them. The only thing that might need some improvement, is the handle which could use some grippy surface or something and it's a bit tricky to open with one hand.

SteamFry: Does it produce crispy exteriors while keeping food tender and juicy inside? - Yes my food was kept moist and crispy outside when I used this feature, I think I needed to cook it for slightly shorter as the outside of my food was slightly too crispy but I will just alter the cooking time next time. Steam function: Does it help keep food moist and flavorful? Yes, my food was kept moist and flavourful which was really good. RapidAir Plus: Does it deliver evenly cooked, crispy results with minimal oil? Yes my food cooked very evenly, was just the right level of crispiness and I used no oil. I liked the shake reminder feature as it made sure that I remembered. Dual baskets & Sync function: How easy is it to cook different dishes simultaneously using the 6L + 3L baskets and Sync function? The dual basket was good to cook different foods at different tempuratures. It did take me some time to work out the sync function Healthier cooking: Does the appliance reduce the need for added oil? Yes I didn't on oil on a lot of my food as it effectively reduced the need for this Ease of use: How easy are the cooking modes and controls to operate? The controls were easy to operate. It took me a little bit of getting used to all of the buttons. The user manual after scanning the qr code on the physical manual was really helpful to know what each button did. I liked that it was touchscreen. SteamClean & cleaning: How effectively does the automatic SteamClean function remove residue, and how easy is the appliance to clean? The steam clean was really good, it made cleaning a lot easier. The appliance was easy to clean. The mirror finish did show fingerprint marks quite easily but these could be wiped off. Build quality & everyday use: How well is the appliance built, and does it meet expectations for everyday cooking? It met all of my expectations and needs but it did take a while to get used to all of the buttons but was good to have them all available.

Had this delivered to test. While the appliance was rather large counter top, I was quite impressed with it's performance. It cooks evenly with the help of the rapid air function, producing juicy tender food which is not dry and is healthier as little oil is needed. The item is well built in design, robust and easy to navigate all functions. The steam cleaning function is excellent. Dual cooking is a breeze. All in all a very impresive appliance.

We had a standard air fryer before getting the Philips SteamFry, and the difference is amazing. It’s much more spacious, and I find food cooks quicker, which is a big help when making meals for the family. Chicken breast with the skin on comes out lovely and crispy, and it’s great for roasting vegetables too. I’ve also been using the steam function to cook seabass, so there’s so much you can do with it. The two baskets are really handy for cooking different foods at the same time, and the Sync function is easy to use. It’s simple to operate and just as useful for making a quick lunch as it is for a full family dinner. The SteamClean function is another big plus because it lifts the residue and makes cleaning so much easier. It’s a brilliant upgrade from our old air fryer, and I’m still discovering all the different things I can make with it.

I use a Airfryer daily and I was really keen to see how the steam function would compare and I have really enjoyed using the Airfryer. The chicken came out lovely and crispy on the outside while staying really juicy and tender inside. I also tried vegetables using the steam function and they stayed moist and full of flavour rather than drying out, which was a real bonus. I cooked French fries with absolutely no added oil and they were ready in around 7 minutes. They were crispy on the outside but still lovely and fluffy inside. In fact, I didn't need to add oil to anything I cooked, including meat and vegetables, which made me feel like I was cooking healthier meals without sacrificing the taste or texture. The dual baskets are also really useful. The 6L and 3L baskets give you plenty of flexibility to cook different foods at the same time. This is particularly useful when you're cooking a family meal and don't want one part of the meal sitting around getting cold while the other finishes. I found the controls very easy to understand and set up. The HomeID app is also helpful when you first get the Airfryer, as it takes you through the setup and has plenty of recipes and ideas to try. I found this useful for getting familiar with the different functions. The SteamClean function is another feature I really like. It makes cleaning easier and helps prevent grease and residue from building up inside, which is especially useful when you are using the Airfryer regularly. The only thing I would mention is the size. It is a fairly large appliance and does need a good amount of worktop space, so it may not be ideal for a small kitchen. However, for a family and for everyday cooking, I think the size and dual baskets are worth it. Overall, I think this is a really versatile Airfryer. The combination of steam and Airfrying genuinely impressed me, particularly with how crispy food can be while still keeping meat juicy and vegetables moist. I also loved being able to cook without adding oil. For someone who uses an Airfryer regularly and wants to make everyday cooking easier, this is definitely an appliance I would recommend.
