Cheapest price ever according to pricespy.
Instead of paying $10 delivery, just add a $10 gift card to activate free shipping.
Possible price match at Noel Leemings then use $20 zip coupon with $100 spend.
Possible price beat at briscoes but different color so ymmv.
Can anyone recommend on the capacity of these air fryers? How does it compare to the 5.3 Litre air fryer at Kmart - https://www.kmart.co.nz/product/5.3-litre-air-fryer/2745820
Would like to know as well. The reviews on that Kmart one seems quite good too.
the kmart one is 5.3L and 1800 w
this one is 3L and 1500 w
frankly, I don't know why you guys couldn't find this out for yourself
Your answer is useless and doesn't address the question.
When you compare 2 different things, do you just look at the specs and that's it? Is this how you buy your laptop, your phone, your car, etc? I pity you.
Perhaps you should take a look back at the question. I read "Can anyone recommend on the capacity of these air fryers? ". I don't see any other way this can be interpreted, but do let me know if I misunderstood.
My answer neither leans towards one or the other, nor does it imply what I would buy. The question through my understanding calls for a factual answer, and that is what I have provided, with no personal preference made.
I am sure you feel very self-congratulatory and superior with your spiteful reply, but going forward, I would prefer that you not pity me with your disdainful and contemptuous attitude, as your clearly condescending and conceited retort, made up of two-thirds snarky, rhetorical questions, and one-third mocking statements, do not make you eligible to pity me, as to pity requires you to look down on me, whereas here, you cannot tell how far, far lower you are than your ego makes you out to be. For someone that has misspelt "creator" in their username, I would suggest you get off your figmented high horse and address me with some more respect. I hope I have put this simply enough for you, but not unexpectedly, any more clarification you will require, please let me know.
Kind regards
Bill
@Bill: Hello there @Bill,
Sorry, but I gave up reading your comment about 1/4 through. TL;DR. Sounds like you got triggered easily and wrote a long as reply to prove something.
The key part to the question that you've conveniently left out is "How does it compare". Telling someone that one is 5.3L with 1800w and another is 3L with 1500w is useless info. That's like comparing 2 cars and simply saying they both have around 1000 horsepower and roughly similar specs. It doesn't tell anyone how well the cars drive and perform.
BTW, maybe you should take a look at how many downvotes your original comment has. Clearly, you thought your original reply was helpful and the majority disagreed and downvoted you. It's time for you to face reality. Again, I pity you and honestly, I won't be bothered to read you next reply, because you bore me.
@NovaAlpha: Hello there,
Well then, from your reply, I can tell now you are too arrogant and thick-headed to see a perspective different than your own, nevermind changing your opinion.
I understand why you gave up reading my comment only 1/4 way through, I should have been expecting that your mind is not capable of continuous words of such length. No doubt another symptom of your blatant arrogance.
If only your brain was capable of understanding my reply you would know my comment "Telling someone that one is 5.3L with 1800w and another is 3L with 1500w" is a response to the question I outlined in my previous reply.
Your point on how I "conveniently left out" "How does it compare" is implying for me to make a comment regarding the first question, I must also answer the second. I hope you are at least capable to understand where there are flaws in this point of yours.
Before questioning whether my reply was "useless info" I again stress to you to see the reason behind why I commented that. I didn't judge the nature of this question, I merely provided an answer. I understand why my reply is not useful to many yet you still lack the comprehension that this was an answer to a question. Please tell me what response you would give to "Can anyone recommend on the capacity of these air fryers?".
This time, I must say it is I who feels pity for you, your inability to engage in mutual conversation is an unfortunate result of your mindset. In reality, we both know your superficial reluctance to read what I have responded with is an attempt to hide behind fake ignorance, I feel no doubt it is in fact you that feels "triggered" and your sheepish exit by not bothering to read my reply indicates you can not stand being told you are wrong, any contradiction and you feel as though your ego is threatened. I hope you find things in life that don't bore you as I know you have read this, but you can hide behind your lies.
had the fancy Philips ones and the Kmart one.
they Kmart one is pretty affordable and you wouldn't cry if you scratch the non stick lining lol. the timer is manual so it's only approximate but the bigger Kmart one has a digital timer and display which some might prefer. it also doesn't look as stylish as the others so not a "showpiece" appliance but it's used in my back kitchen lol.
both works similar and not much difference cooking wise- would buy again. there's also a massive fb group for the Kmart fryers full of reviews and recipes.
Which Philips model did you have?
I'm still thinking to either get a Philips or Kmart unit
the XXL one. they both do the job but I think the Philips have better control over time and temp (cost 4x more though).
i recommend picking a model that can lift the tray out easily for washing.
another tip is to use silicon baking mats that fit inside the pan to help with cleaning as food do get stuck over time.
As far as airfryer technologies are concerned, they are just convection fan ovens, which has been around for ages. Just go for the best value you could find, don't worry about the brand.
I have normal oven, do I need this?
Typically, and I can't speak for this model, Airfryers have a suspended "basket" - they don't tend to need anything extra (e.g. oil). So, if you for example, cooked a tray of fresh meatballs from the supermarket in the oven, they'd come out soggy and soaked in fat, depending on how long you cooked them for and what temperature. In an Air Fryer, the fat can't soak the meatballs, so instead they 'sweat' it out, self lubricate and then the excess drops to the bottom tray under the basket. The results can be preferable to using an oven, the only disadvantage in my view being that your whole house will smell like meatballs due to the venting requirement. So if and when we use ours, we do so with a heavy duty extension cord on the deck.
Would you say that it has replaced your oven for most things?
I bought the 11L Kmart one. It's quite easy to use, has a built in timer and digital temp control up to 200deg. Also does low temp dehydrating which is a nice extra, but haven't tried yet. All these things can be done in the oven. The main thing is just that the oven is bigger.
We have a big family so the oven still gets used for main meals, but it really helps if you ever need extra oven space for side dishes, etc. Cleaning is much easier because your just throw the small trays in the dishwasher (full size oven trays don't fit). And heating up takes very little time, so power usage is reduced.
It really just depends how you use it.
In addition to universe's comments, the area to heat is much smaller, so doing small batches of things happens quite quickly, no need to wait around getting oven to temperature.
If you have a quality oven this isn't as much of a difference, great for flatting where the provided oven might be 25 years old with bad seals.
Also easier to clean than an oven.
yea if you normally use the oven for 1-2 people then this is definitely faster and more convenient to cook.
if you're cooking or baking big quantities and oven would be better.
I use the Air-fryer for cooking any frozen food that has been deep fried prior to freezing (basically all the yellow frozen foods lol). Because of the oil content in those types of frozen food, the Air-fryer does a good job at crisping them up and any excess oil will drip to the bottom and it’s quite surprising how much oil does end up in the bottom.
I've got one of these and we use it regularly. If you are cooking for a couple of people they are fantastic. The only downside to this model is the copper like basket which is hard to clean. I'll probably buy another as a gift.
I have a Russell Hobbs one 5L I think it is quite a strenuous task to clean the inside tray and also not sure how to clean the copper coil inside, any thoughts?
The air fryer itself does most jobs well like fried fish, chips, raw marinated meat placed on baking paper.
It does throw out a large billow of smoke so be aware of that too reagrdless of which brand or airfryer you select
Used to have the Phillips Airfryer (similar style) and it was great however cleaning it wasn't the easiest and just got worse as time went by. Changed to one of the oven style airfryers now like this but we got ours from the Warehouse and been great. So so so much easier to keep clean.
Got Noel Leeming to price Match at $98 and $20 off ZIP code, $78 at the end :)
what did you buy to get the price up to $100? Cheapest thing I can find is a $3.50 sim card
$2.99 AA batteries
Hi, was it online or in-store?
all online, ask thru the online chat they will give you a code to use thru the checkout
Worked for me online too. There was a bit of a delay getting onto the online chat, but they matched no problem. $78 seems like a good deal, but be aware this is a farily small air fryer. Only 3 Litres. Probably better quality than the competing 'budget' ones like Kmart, Warehouse, etc. since it has copper non-stick coating.
FYI the market has breville mini oven with air fryer function for about $350 for those that want easy clean or larger families
Check my market super list post
Nice find. Noels is selling for $330 ($170 with CSC premium) and Smith City for $129 for the black model (promotion price). Reviews seem decent, value for money.
