What Philips Premium XXL Airfryer owners say

“You can also use manual settings on the ‘sensor’ machine. I love mine”
— @frans3474 on YouTube
“I went ahead and bought the smart sensing model, but I don't regret my choice at all as I only use the sensing feature and have yet to use manual. Best purchase I ever made.”

“I’ve been using mine for about a year and I don’t have that issue yet, but my basket stays sticky even after soaking and cleaning it.. It doesn’t feel clean but I can’t do more than what I’m already doing.”
