The Vortex Plus weighs slightly more as it has additional cooking features. The Vortex is primarily a black plastic air fryer and the Plus has additional stainless steel accents. The Reheat smart program helps you heat up your leftovers without overcooking or drying out your food. By default, it starts at 10 minutes with a temperature of 280F. You can adjust the time from 1 to 60 minutes within 120F to 360F degrees.
Er Phillips ones that were totally out of our price range. Haven’t had a chance to test all the functions yet but am looking forward to doing so.

The thing about root vegetables is that they often take a lot of time to cook, especially in the oven.
In real life terms, this gives room for roughly twelve fish fingers with small gaps between to prevent them sticking. There’s a 9cm/3.5in height from the rack to the top of the drawer, so the air fryer has the depth to allow you to cook small joints of meat. With a stainless-steel trim wrapped around a high-gloss black body, the Vortex Plus has a characteristic air fryer design.
As well as air fry, the new model can roast, bake, grill, reheat and dehydrate. And while the glossy black finish looks nice enough, the control panel was prone to picking up greasy fingerprints, and is likely to need a regular clean with a damp cloth.

The Philips Essential Airfryer is a top choice for virtually any home, as it’s extremely easy to use. The basket has a nonstick coating that makes it easy to clean after cooking, but you can also put any moosoo air fryer of the appliance’s removable parts in the dishwasher for hands-off cleaning. For the record, I previously couldn’t commit to a basket style air fryer because it’s a single use kitchen appliances.
Adjust your temperature between 180 to 400 degrees by setting your cooking preferences with easy-to-use buttons and an auto-timer. Clean-up is a breeze with the non-stick pan and dishwasher-safe basket. Depending on the thickness of the salmon and the exact air fryer you have, the time could range. But on average, expect the air fryer salmon to be cooked within 7-9 minutes – that’s it! You’ll know it’s ready when it flakes off easily. Cook in 2 or 3 batches, depending on the size of your basket without overcrowding the pan until they’re crispy.
The air fryer comes with the basket in place, and the removable non-stick air fryer insert at the top of the styrofoam packaging. The Plus 6-in 1 Air Fryer with ClearCook and OdorErase comes in a medium-size box that’s well-packed to keep your air fryer safe as it ships. The packaging was not too sustainable, with styrofoam layers at the top and bottom of the fryer that cannot be recycled. Many would recommend using a high smoke point oil like avocado oil or canola oil. But I love the flavor of olive oil and found great results with it. I toss it with just a teaspoon of olive oil, along with garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper.
