Best Sunbeam Air Fryers

When we initially purchased this, it was great. Good size and value, and worked really well. After 18 months, part of the air fryer broke, where the… Read more

drawer slides in and the frame sits around the seal. It broke away in a few pieces, and it actually part of the body of the air fryer, so can’t be fixed or parts replaced. We contacted Sunbeam about this, as we felt that for the actually body of the air fryer to break after just 18 months (and a cost of $350), this shouldn’t happen. You wouldn’t expect a microwave or other appliance at the same value to break at this age either. Sunbeam just came back to us and said ‘apologies but it is out of the 1 year warranty, so there isn’t anything they can do’. So disappointed as we researched a lot before choosing this one, and feel really let down by the unfixable damage and no offer of any resolution.

Having purchased this product in February 2024, I am disappointed to report that it has already malfunctioned, with the fan failing and the heating… Read more

function ceasing to operate. Considering the price of $299, I find this to be a rather unreliable product. It only comes with 1 year warranty and can't be replaced or repaired under warranty. In contrast, our $80 Kmart air fryer, which is five years old, continues to function without issue. As a result, we will likely refrain from purchasing any further Sunbeam products.

Love the versatility of the zones allowing tray one side and tub the other. Uses less power than an oven. Good size but not going to cook a meal… Read more

for 4 in it too easily like most air fryers, but great for certain things for sure

Only issue i have is if you use two trays at once the top one chars and the bottom one doesnt cook through at all so heat circulation is clearly not up to scratch in air fry mode. Make sure you swap tray position mid way through to avoid this.

Very happy with my purchase after several months

Wish it was easier to get extra trays so you can cook 2 full trays or two full wire baskets etc. they do via one warehouse and they are terrible with communication if something isnt in stock

Smells strongly out of the box. Could not use it in the house. After wiping it down as directed by the User Manual I had to put it outside of the… Read more

house and run it (empty) at 200°C to “burn” it in. I have never had an electrical appliance stink so much.

Have not used it for food preparation yet as the wife cannot tolerate the smell of the appliance. Hopefully it will go away in time.

Cake tin is small, but usable.

I bought this unit mainly for the rotating chip basket.

Better improvement then the last model – Order this 12:1 Sunbeam to replace our Multifunction oven and air fryer. The old oven was a mean machine, excellent air fryer and long lasting. That… Read more

was the main reason for me to upgrade to 12:1. We ordered through Mitch’s and Brown in Geraldton.

We worked on a minesite so the usage of the 12 and 1 is 24 hrs and with so many team members on both day and night shift, we have opportunities to fully test this oven. More often than not we don’t clean the oven, basically we just cover the bottom tray with foil and that about it. The window cleaning is easy, just a wipe with detergent.

The last three days of using the 12 and 1 appeared to be easy to clean. I did notice we need to do the preheat or prime the oven few time a before the smoke and a Lee go away. After that the was good to use. The digital readout is easy to see and navigate, I did not like turning the dial from the previous oven

The noise factor on air fryer is much quieter, and I do noticed the unit provide a much better heating. So far we only used two main function: air fryer for cooking chips and sausage rolls, and the is pizza.

The light function is definitely good and must for all mini oven. Overall it a nice compact oven and if it built like the last oven; which I already can tell it is. Then this one will last for a few years.

Exceptional value for money – I got this air fryer for my mother-in-law, and decided to test it first against mine, which isn’t Sunbeam brand, and is far more expensive. Oh boy… Read more

wasn’t I surprised… I tested both with the same dishes (whole chicken, pork belly, rissoles, bacon) at the same settings and to my surprise – you couldn’t tell a difference when they were cooked. Save yourself some $$ and don’t overpay for the appliances that will give you the same result. Do I need to mention that the viewing window is just great. And there is a light as well! Now I wish my air fryer would have these. The only downside is that the basket and window cover are not dishwasher safe (tray is). But saying that, it’s only 3 pieces that need to be washed. My other brand has 5 (much bulkier as well), which take up a whole dishwasher, and instead of being a bless, it is a hassle and water + energy waste. Insanely great air fryer!

Dont bother! Cooking times are all over the place for a start. As soon as you cook the trays are stained and cannot be cleaned. Lined it with baking… Read more

paper but still did not work. The basket cannot be cleaned so a dirty brown colour for next cook. Oh well lesson learnt.

Rate my experience with the Sunbeam AFP4570DF air fryer? Hmmm. Do I click three stars for "OK" or do I click two stars for "Bad". That's a tricky… Read more

question, because I would have clicked "Good" or "Excellent" until the unit DIED at the thirteen month mark.

I bought the Sunbeam AFP4570DF after five years of good service from a Philips XXL HD9651/91 (great for cooking, very hard to clean!). After extensive research I chose the Sunbeam AFP4570DF with its viewing window, internal light, large capacity drawer and sleek design.

So, how did the Sunbeam AFP4570DF perform in my kitchen? Pretty good overall.

The drawer was always a little problematic and not as smooth to slide in and out as you might expect.

Steak? Not as good as the Philips XXL HD9651/91, and definitely not as good as my Weber Q3200N!

Frozen chips, frozen fish etc? Awesome. Much better than the Philips.

Sourdough toast? Great. Better than any toaster.

"Stir fries"? (Place vegetables along with meat, fish or poultry into a liner together with spices and/or sauce and just let it cook). Great!

Small-medium sized roasts with veggies? Great.

Keeping food warm? Great.

Cleaning? An absolute breeze. Always washed the drawer components by hand not in the dishwasher. Always cleaned the machine with a soft cloth after use.

And then one Sunday night while roasting pumpkin, dead. D.E.A.D. Tried letting it cool down. Switched it off. Unplugged it. Moved it to another power point. Nothing. An internal fuse perhaps? Not sure. But it was dead. So disappointing!

I contacted both the retailer and Sunbeam by email. Heard nothing back from Sunbeam, but the gem of a store manager replied to my email first thing Monday morning and offered a replacement of my choice. Wow.

This time I chose a Philips Airfryer Series 5000 XXL. Paid a little more. Two year warranty instead of one. And we added a two year back up plan for just $65.

So far, so good. Wish me luck, please.

out crunchy & perfectly cooked. Only downside is the manual is very limited & would have thought that Sunbeam would have done better. Early days but so far great.

how ever was much more versatile. It has a separate container within a container and you can cheat by putting aluminium foil between the two containers so only one gets dirty. It also has a basket within the basket to raise food to cook all the way around. It heats at a more hoter, even temperature than the cheaper brand and much more elaborate selections for cooking with the option to increase or decrease temperature and time if you want. I cooked chicken fillets seasoned and sprinkle some olive oil and they came out great and I found some vegetable packs at Aldi that included their seasoning I just added some shredded carrots and sprinkle some olive oil. I have yet to cook red meat but my sister said she cooks pork chops and finds that they are much better and more moist than frying or bbq.
