    I have one of these and they are the greatest thing since the sliced pan. Available in Currys

    http://www.currys.ie/Product/philips-hd923020-viva-airfryer-ink-black/322950/396.8

    this is the digital version, its a fantastic price, you wont get it any cheaper I'd imagine as I paid €119 in the January sales last year in Currys and that was absolute steal.

    Another xmas present sorted!

    Picked one up with currys UK - 75 pound (106 euro) plus few quid parcel motel. Can't understand why they still have price difference between UK and here. Good price though op.

    Awesome deal in fairness, which can't be said too many times about Currys. :P

    I got one too :o. I already have the cream non-digital one which I bought from Amazon for £99 3 years ago. Great machine, can't live without it! Will give the old one to my mother!

    Anyone that bought it at the higher price, you can go back in and get the difference refunded within 7 days. That's policy.

    Nope, but reviews are well and truly on the philips side of the fence. Reviews on boards are plentiful, as with Amazon, and theyre very positive. Could not let it go at a shade over €100, and definitely not for the digital version.

    Think I used an English one that I have.
    Like you said the Irish site dropped the price this morning so better to buy from there.

    I'd chance just returning it (or cancelling it before it's delivered) and buying a new one at lower price. Pretty sure nothing wrong with that. I remember doing that with a lawnmower in B&Q once

    Hmmm.. I haven't used a fryer since the old days when they made a mess everywhere but oven chips don't cut it either :( Are these that much better/cleaner?

    Completely different to the deep fat fryer. No oil needed.

    I have mine a few weeks so I haven't tested it fully yet. I am not the best cook at all but the airfryer is so easy to use, fast and super easy to clean. Example of some handy meals I have tried: steak and chips in 15 minutes, 1.2kg whole chicken in 30 minutes and fish wrapped in tin foil with sauce and some par boiled baby potatoes lightly coated in olive oil done in 15 months.

    Some people say its their best buy and I can see why.

    Would you fit two reasonably sized steaks in there at once?

    A couple of striplons maybe but nothing else. Need to be flat on the basket so the air can circulate around so can't stack stuff up.

    About 13 minutes for medium at 180 degrees. I think I read somewhere that you can put onions on top for the last 5 minutes or so.

    The steak tastes way better than frying in a pan.

    Onions underneath so the grease stops them from dehydrating.

    Of course you can, but you'll have to pay again while you are waiting on the refund. I'd try ringing, let them know your intention, and they might well apply a refund of the difference to your card. Amazon do it regularly. Easier for them too.

    You won't cater for a family of 4 with this, this is a 1-2 person machine only.
    There is a larger model available I think but don't know how much.

    I cook two rib eyes there no
    Problem as someone else said I cook them on a bed of onions and mushrooms both fit no problem. Go for it you won't regret it brilliant fryer.
