wife got the chefman during prime day for like $25, for 1-2 people its adequate, we weren't really looking for one but decided to try it out, its not bad , seems to work ok...the little grate is constantly falling out of ours
Hi Lexi, Thanks for a fun and informative video. I finally bought an airfryer after resisting for years (I'm not a gadgety person.) The Cuisinart was on sale, so I bought it. It is a lot like the Phillips but has a viewing window. I absolutely LOVE it! I think that it was worth the extra dough to get a model that had a window and great reviews from other owners. It also has a nice big basket. Makes excellent fries, wings and reheats pizza perfectly!
My parents have a cheap airfryer from Inventum, it takes ages to warm up, fries if after 10 minuts still not done. While my girfriend has a Philips and that one it very fast. No need to pre-heat it. And if you do it takes minuts. Just pay more and get a Philips i'm so tired of people saving on a Airfryer "you want some snacks" they will be done in 40 minuts... WHAT? How about 10...
Yes, but the smaller space in the air fryer and the fan in the lid being the same size or larger than a standard convection oven fan yields crispier results
I was skeptical too, but the air fryers are super handy, convenient, and best of all, less messy. It's not the same as actual frying, but it's pretty damn close. I love frying food but I hate cleaning my stovetop afterwards
GREAT presenter! Lexi, keep going! So good to see oz/nz that can present and speak well without the drawl. Love your boppy humor and, of course, the content!
You need to do the air fryer is that open from the front and have a rack on it and can you do a chicken rotisserie rotisserie on it? That doesn’t touch the bottom of the thing
@@noahgodlike7236thats what both an air fryer and a convection oven do. An air fryer is a countertop convection oven with a higher amount of airflow because of the smaller volume. But it's mostly just the same as a mini convection oven.
I have my new Instant Vortex Plus 6 in 1, 6 quart Air Fryer coming today (Sunday) It has really good reviews. It has a clear glass window to see what is inside ! I am excited !!!!!! Please review !
I have just got the instant vortex plus 6. Used it once, but I am trying to find out if it has teflon coating. Not sure how to find that. Do you know. Thank you.
Love the review. I find the current selection of air fryers lacking the ability to see what is happening within having to open in. Have a look at a De'Longhi MultiFry FH1394/2 Cooker - Silver. Just bought a second one as the 1st one has had none stop use over the last 5+ years and had been an amazing addition to the kitchen family.
I think I will be getting a Phillips in the near future. Can you do a slow cooker video? I know my mom has been wanting one but we haven't been sure which is good.
I don't think you need to think too hard or compare slow cookers, they all function the same. Nothing is as good as a used Crock pot from the thrift store imo, I had a Ninja combo air fryer with pressure cooker and slow cooker, the slow cooker worked just fine, used it all the time to make soups and stews and chili
Down under, we get the philips with a much easier dial and button menu that the American release. The smaller of the philips (not XXL) is my go to, the flat top is handy to store other things when not in use. Just remember to clean these regularly as the bottoms can get pretty mucked up over time.
@@pharaohsmagician8329 For sure soak the baskets in warm water with dish soap for at least a couple hours. Then scrub with a nylon brush as sponges get dirty pretty fast with the grease. But my go-to is to line the outer basket with thin aluminum foul, making sure to not block the air flow. Helps a lot with cleaning.
Lexi, I'm Canadian. I grew up adding pubs style vinegar on my Fish & Chips, wrapped in news paper (back in the year dark, eh?) How does the "down under" Lady Lexi do to her fries in 2021?
Just got an air fryer different brand but an air fryer looking forward to new phase of cooking, thank you for your video, it was well done and very informative
Eh I’m going with the ninja if it’s on sale I love my food little on the crispier side and I lather all my foods with extra oils and rubs I’d just watch my food take it out a bit earlier if I know it’s done
I do miss more traditional style presentations when it comes to reviews. Maybe I'm the only one. Just feels more like an entertainment video than a product review. Not what I was expecting
The myth of Teflon being bad for you is based on an inconclusive study. You're looking at 800° farenheit before it's compromised too, way higher than your kitchen oven will go. Also it need to be manipulated or scratched to rupture and release the Teflon, and these air fryer a are pretty hands off
The real comparison is between an air fryer, and oil frying. It's clearly not as good and a waste of electricity, not to mention the price, bulk and ewaste polution of the device itself.

We have the Ninja and it's impressively packed with features. I highly recommend it!
Ninja foodi pressure cooker air fryer cooker is what I have and it is amazing.
How well does the dehydration function work?
@@brianjones8673 It works just as described and thankfully, it doesn't take too long. But that also depends on the type of food you need to dehydrate.
@@ttbalog awesome thanks
Bought a Philips Airfryer in 2014 for £90, still going strong 8 years later, would definitely buy Philips again.
Wow that's amazing
@@angelbasham6631 Given the lifespan of a lot of kitchen electrics nowadays were impressed by this one 🙂
@@Torkijo absolutely
I bought mine 12 years ago. Gave it to my mum and she absolutely loves the simplicity and reliability
I think I'm going to get the ninja af400, every review I've watched they say it's amazing.

people before buying an Air fryer look in your ovens if it has a fan thats a convection oven thats an air fryer
Yes, but the smaller space in the air fryer and the fan in the lid being the same size or larger than a standard convection oven fan yields crispier results
Hey Lexi - great to see an Aussie on CNET - love your reviews 🇦🇺. Would love to see a review on the Tefal Easy fry grill and steam XXL
Me Past 10 years: “I don’t need an air fryer”
Me after hearing Lexi make that 1st crunch: “Man I need an air fryer”
I was skeptical too, but the air fryers are super handy, convenient, and best of all, less messy. It's not the same as actual frying, but it's pretty damn close. I love frying food but I hate cleaning my stovetop afterwards
Considering the quality and affordability of Air Fryer is a must. Of course, if we want something, we want nothing but the best!
honestly Ninja makes some good stuff and it's reasonably priced even if you compare their blender to a Vitamix
Can you compare pressure cookers?
GREAT presenter! Lexi, keep going! So good to see oz/nz that can present and speak well without the drawl. Love your boppy humor and, of course, the content!
Just saw your video, I think I'm going to look into the ChefMan. For the price, space is tight and its just me I think it will work, thank you!
I have that exact Ninja Air Fryer and I love it!!!
Have you ever tried the instapot air fryer?
She's advertising the Phillips guys
Philips was the first with DVD recorders if i Remember right on tv comerical long ago it might be on youtube videos search engine channels
Coffee cakes are my favorate when it comes to cakes.. but if i like a fruity vanilla a pineaple upside down is a winner.😊
You need to do the air fryer is that open from the front and have a rack on it and can you do a chicken rotisserie rotisserie on it? That doesn’t touch the bottom of the thing
I would just get the Phillips, they seemed to have mastered the Air Fryer game
A question: what’s the difference between an air fryer and a convection oven? Just size, or is there something I’m missing?
It uses air circulation
@@noahgodlike7236thats what both an air fryer and a convection oven do. An air fryer is a countertop convection oven with a higher amount of airflow because of the smaller volume. But it's mostly just the same as a mini convection oven.
What kind of smell could have possibly been coming from those unseasoned fries ma’am? 🤨
" unseasoned fries smell " 🤓
The scent of potatoes cooking
@@sedricklawrence5836 when’s the last time you walked into a room and said “is that raw potato’s I smell?!”🤔😂
@@alexanthony7235 You right lol

Wonderful review, I also love the presenter's energy and smile! I watched & enjoyed the full video
Thank you for getting some AMSR in this video ☺️
How do you compare the frying sound on the Ninja compared to the Phillips one?
Since I am only one person, I will try the CHEFMAN. The price for one person is also good.
Your presentation style is so fabulous and elegant 🎉❤. Thank you
I'm going lowest here. my bet is that the law of diminishing returns will make the higher models better, but not worth the money.

Mine is the cosori
This vid deserves a million everything
This is a teenage/sports house miracle. Cooks things fast and they are crispy.

damn i work for Philips and didn't know about them being the 1st... lol
Can you guys comaparethe new xiaomi airfryer and the philips airfryer?
Lexy reminds me of the good days of molly Wood :)
Down under, we get the philips with a much easier dial and button menu that the American release. The smaller of the philips (not XXL) is my go to, the flat top is handy to store other things when not in use. Just remember to clean these regularly as the bottoms can get pretty mucked up over time.
Thank you, I'm new to cooking, do you have any cleaning tips?

I thank she works for Phillips
The chefman went limp and lady Chatterley cackled

Just got an air fryer different brand but an air fryer looking forward to new phase of cooking, thank you for your video, it was well done and very informative
I've had my air fryer for over a year and never used the presets.
TEFAL have got a great air-fryer/grill/dehydrator
Nice 👍 very informative 😊
thanx for review Lexy
No June oven?
Should also have had the oven door style ones like the Insignia from Best Buy, I love mine.
Got the Cosori, like it a lot!
The quietest one should be the Ninja 😂
Thanks for reviewing, Lexi. 👏
I like crunch to😊
Eh I’m going with the ninja if it’s on sale I love my food little on the crispier side and I lather all my foods with extra oils and rubs I’d just watch my food take it out a bit earlier if I know it’s done
the air fryer was invented in 2010???!
I would have to say the Ninja but I guess we’ll see.
Toss your fries with oil and seasonings before airfrying
I've been using that hack for months now
I noticed you didn't toss the dried in a little bit if oil. That's 100% necessary for a fair and good result.
Instant pot vortex , hands down
Great video 👍
I have Breville The Smart Oven Pro Counter top Oven.
Philips Air Fryer of course by far
I love Ninja!
If only the Philips came in a stainless steel colorway.
1:34 Ah yes, putting white text against a white background.
VERY smart. 😑
😂😂😂
Okay ❤️
Nice Lexy
Fahrenheit? Really?
Chicken tenders would be nice
I do miss more traditional style presentations when it comes to reviews. Maybe I'm the only one. Just feels more like an entertainment video than a product review. Not what I was expecting
Just buy the Ninja brand every time. The others are garbage. My ninja is still going strong after a couple years.
If you only have experience with the ninja, how could you make the claim the others are garbage?
Kinda looks like she should be related to Marion Grasby of "Marion's Kitchen" 🤔
Loved the video so much fun thanks for sharing
So the best airfryer is ????
Breville oven air fryer is much more versatile.
No it isn't.
It’s 400 damn dollars
Ninja for me.
i don't eat the foods that she made and that's the reason i do not want the tempation and do not have an air fryer.
Phillips
Ni idea why this company abandon the podcast and the RUclips channel and the CNT application sucks
To me, Lexi spells loveli. Hihi.
Ninja.
Ninja
Eh, they are too small
03:23
10:00
10:53
I would say Philips could be the winner.
Now it's hard to choose between the Ninja and the Philips air fryer.
cool
Expensive or not. If it got Teflon inside don't buy
@@jimmyjohnn19 it's the non stick coating. It's absolutely necessary.
Teflon only u stable after over 500 degrees and I don't think these get past 400
