The Phillips Airfryer with unique Rapid Air Technology debuted in 2010 at Berlin's IFA show, the largest global tradeshow available. USA today states that products exhibited at IFA tend to be the most advanced technologically and often boast the sleekest designs as European customers tend to demand both functionality and good looks more so than their US counterparts.
The Phillips Airfryer uses a unique style of cooking called Rapid Air Technology. Similar to a style of cooking referred to as greaseless frying technology which has been around since the 1990's, Phillips has taken this idea and improved upon it.
The Phillips Airfryer's unique method of cooking perfects the use of evenly distributed radiant heat with the power and speed of convection thermal heat transference to allow for rapid even cooking. In part this is due to the exclusive starfish patterned shape of the cooking container which facilitates optimal air circulation creating super powered cooking jet streams. The starfish pattern built into the base of the unit that produces these jet streams combines with the circular cooking space and angled air vents and creates a perfect storm of convection heating. The result; a super heated completely even cooking method.
When this perfectly equalized heat distribution is allowed to pass through the mesh metal basket or specially designed cooking trays the AirFryer for all intents and purposes combines three cooking methods into one powerful force. With little to no oil, the food is baked, grilled and fried at the same time from both the top and the bottom. This allows for rapid cooking and produces food that is as crispy as if fried in a traditional deep fat fryer but with only a fraction of the calories.
The system heats up to 390 degrees but due to the powerful combination of cooking styles higher heating ranges are not needed. The Airfryer is compact enough to sit on the counter top while being quick and easy enough that it could replace a toaster over. While the size is compact the trays can hold a decent amount of food and may reduce the need to use a larger oven, thus saving on electricity.
Accessories can be included that allow for baked goods or a special grilling tray that brings the ease and taste of a barbeque to your countertop without the hassle or messy clean up. A double layer cooking tray can be added that allows for even more cooking space and includes skewers for vegetable or meat kabob style cooking.

Can you tell us more about this product? I’d love to find out more details. I frequently fry food but I would love to be able to use less oil.
Oh my gosh this fryer frys with air and that means more weight lost 🙂
This thing is SO COOL! I want one.
I want one of those in the worst way. I would use it ALL THE TIME.
I wish I had space for another gadget. I would love a quicker way to faux fry.
Hi Stacie,
What an amazing find! My husband and I stopped frying our food, including pan frying them, many years ago now. There are time when we really miss a few things that just don’t taste right otherwise. The Phillips Airfryer with Rapid Air Technology sounds like our answer to those moments of cravings we haven’t been able to satisfy (guilt free anyway).
Thank you so much for letting me in on your latest cooking secret!

I am really digging this air-fryer. I put it on my birthday wish list. Now to clear out some kitchen space for it!
We have been using our airfryer quite a bit. I’ve tried a number of recipes in it, but I’ve found it works best for french fries.
well jeez. i kind of think we NEED an air fryer now. maybe i’ll ask for christmas 🙂
I didn’t even know this was possible. That is going to be one hot holiday gift!
This would be a great piece of cooking equipment to have in the kitchen. I love fried things but the excess of oil tends to make me shy away from them.
I have been wanting to get one of these for a while now.I would love to try it out and see for myself how good it is.
I’ve seen a bunch of air fryers one the market and they are like magical little machines! I can’t wait to get my hands on one to try it out.
The airfryer sounds like a great kitchen appliance. I don’t own a fryer but I have considered owning one. I think it would be fun.
Okay, this is the second time today I’ve seen something about the Phillips air fryer… I think it’s a sign I go get one!
I’d like some french fries please! That looks so good!
This is my second time hearing about this product today, and I’m so interested in learning more about it! I hope there will be in store demos so customers can try the finished product. If those fries are as good as they look, I want a Philips Air Fryer!
I love my Philips Airfryer! I didn’t realize they had them at Best Buy! Good to know when people ask about mine.
This is such a great solution to the messy fryer! I love how easy it is to use
Would totally love to get one of those! They fry food a lot imptl and it looks fun to use
I really want one of these because I’m trying really hard to eat less fried food. This little machine seems so neat and oh so useful. I don’t think it would ever leave my counter.
I would love one of these! We don’t fry very much because it’s so messy so I’d love to use this.
I would love one of these! It seems so handy and mess free!
I would love an appliance like this as I love fried food. It sounds like it is a fantastic addition to the kitchen.
This looks like a really great appliance! I love the idea of a low fat fryer.
This looks like an awesome product! I’ve never used an Air Fryer before.
I’d like to try one of these. What a unique way to fry food.
I own a Philips AirFryer and use it often to enjoy French Fries, Fried Plantains, Chicken Wings, Chicken Fried Steak, Homemade Sweet Potato Tater Tots, you name it! IT’S AMAZING! Everybody should have one! Just saying…
I used air fryer a year ago. Can not deny all the advantages it can bring to daily cooking. I mostly like the fact that the fried food is crunchy coat but tender and juicy taste even the temparatue is very high. I do make my breakfast with air fryer as 5 minutes is enough for any kinds of breakfast. I make Frittata with my air fryer also.
Loving this air fryer technology as it cooks with air rather than oil. Definitely one for a healthy family and as you can see, the fried food looks just like it’s been deep fried!
That’s amazing! Everyone loves fried foods, but they’re just so bad for you and i hate the greasiness. I would love to try this product, especially if foods taste just as good.
This could be revolutionary!
Nice one Stacey, I wasnt so sure I was going to bother getting one, but now I think I will, can you fit a lot in the air fryer? Or do I need to look for a bigger model?
The Airfryer idea is a fantastic machine for a quick, easy 2 person meal and plus cooking was much healthier. Thank for sharing
Philips air fryer is great and right on of the best air fryer in the market. You can choose this for your kitchen and that will be a great decision. The design of the air fryer is very good; it is tall and bit thin than the rotary health fryers. On the top, there is a fan and a heating element. On the bottom, there is a basket and a drawer. For this, there is no window to see the progress of cooking foods. The bottom of the fryer is a metal mesh, for this air passes out of it very easily. The air heats the drawer to circulate air.
