Philips HD9220/20 is one of the best-selling air fryers and comes with lots of convenience for everyday cooking.

It is simple to use, and you can use it for cooking different types of food, including bake, grill, roast, and air fry. These cooking options make your life easy and your food menu rich.

Let’s review the appliance in detail to see if it suits your needs or not

Design

The HD9220/20 is a midrange air fryer from Philips. The air fryer comes with a very basic design that means it won’t have many bells and whistles, but it is equipped with everything you need to imitate many frying recipes with perfection.

The air fryer has a simple mechanism. It consists of a shiny plastic body that is scratch-resistant and stain-resistant as well. The air fryer is practical and compact. It sits beautifully on your kitchen counter. The air fryer has a removable basket with a mesh holder to strain all the oil and liquid to the bottom. The air fryer is a bit heavy, but still, you can take out the food basket for a shake single-handedly.

The air fryer does have a temperature control dial and a traditional knob for time adjustment.

The air fryer does have a cable managing system at the back, which we appreciate a lot. The cable reverts back in, and you don’t have to worry about the loose cord on your kitchen counter.

The heating elements are at the bottom. There is a vent at the back of the air fryer to keep the appliance cool. Overall, it’s a very functional design that makes this air fryer suitable for everyday cooking.

Capacity

As we already said, it’s a compact air fryer. It comes with a small to medium capacity. The air fryer basket is spacious enough to fit 800 grams of fries at a time. The size is great for cooking 2-3 portions of serving at a time.

Control Panel

As it’s an analogue air fryer, we certainly miss a digital control panel. Unfortunately, there is no touch menu or screen to display time and temperature settings. Instead, we got with this air fryer a traditional temperature control knob and a dial for setting the timer. It is not as convenient as a digital display, but it does the job, and we should remember it’s an affordable option from Philip. You can buy a better version like HD9252/91 with a digital display if you can afford the price.

Rapid Air Technology

Philips HD9220/20 features rapid air technology to cook your food to precision. The air fryer reduces the use of oil minimum to zero depending on your preference. Of course, you can drizzle some olive oil on the top to shine on your ingredients, but even this is not a requirement. Philips air fryers are known to reduce the 90% use of oil from your daily food, making it healthier. The air fryer circulates air through the food with high speed. The rapid air technology makes food crunchy from the outside, like in deep frying, while it remains moist and juicy from inside.

Functions

As it’s a basic unit, we don’t see the more advanced features like keep warm, reheat, or preheat. But still, the air fryer provides several cooking options. It can not only air-fry, but you can grill, bake, or roast meat or veggies in the same air fryer.

Auto-shutoff

The air fryer gives a loud alert when the timer is up. It automatically shuts off to prevent food from burning or overcooking. The air fryer also stops when you pull out the food basket to give it a shake halfway through the cooking.

Time Range

Philips HD9220/20 allows you to set the timer for up to 30 minutes. The little disadvantage is that with longer recipes, you have to reset the timer to cook further.

Temperature Range

The air fryer allows you to adjust the temperature depending on the type of food you are cooking inside. You can set an 800 – 2000 temperature range to cook different foods.

Ease of Cleaning

The air fryer basket is dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. You can wash the mesh basket and bottom drawer with your hand easily.
