How to pick a brand
- Check service in your city first. A great air fryer with no nearby service centre is a risk over 3–5 years.
- Compare warranties: 1 year is common; some Philips models offer 2.
- Match the model to your household, not the brand to your budget alone.
- Read model reviews, since quality varies within a brand.
