I recently received the Philips Airfryer in the mail and it is huge and takes up a lot of counter space. How does this airfryer compare in size?

It is large, but worth it! Probably as big around as a large dinner plate..

T-fal is reasonably compact, having an overall diameter of approximately 12-14 inches. To me its size was not the issue; it was the way the food came out. I did not like it and returned it.

It all depends on what you wish to do. If all you want is to cook a couple of burgers then go with the smaller one. The clean up will be easier as well. But this thing is 7 gauge steel and that is thick and heavy. And for cooking there is nothing better than heavy gauge steel. And it has a fairly large cooking area so you can get that good ol' diner style cooking going on. But bare in mind that this is not "stainless steel". So there are proper care procedures involved. I use mine at home on the stove for that good restaurant style cooking. It goes over two burners and I can get a couple of things going on at once. Hope this has helped you some.

We had a larger one too and have found this size to just be so much more handy and convenient to use. Clean up is a breeze and storage is never a problem. It is by far the most used kitchen appliance we have and at the price they sell for I have no problem replacing it every year if that is what it takes to keep it working well. In the first griddles defense the Teflon would have lasted far longer had I warned my Granddaughter not to use metal utensils on it.

I bought the regular size, and use it for small amounts if I'm just cooking for two. I bought the mini for a friend. We may do a side by side test run to see if the mini delivers more smoke flavor to the same sized chicken breast or piece of salmon.

I have a halogen oven, I use it for smaller foods that need to be cooked in a short time, it seems to take longer but it cooks very evenly. I think if mine were bigger it would be ideal for a large broiler type item, like a roasted chicken or roast. Its great for rewarding pizza and similar items.

All I can say is it is much larger than the one I used to have, almost too large. I have never filled it all the way up even with a doubled recipe. I have had it on for around 8 hours at a time.

I use this one at home and a smaller diameter one for travel. It's a little large (for me) when traveling.

I thought it would be too small, going from a 5 or 6 quart, but it's been pretty easy to make most of what I like. I cook for one person, but always keep leftovers. Still, I would have preferred 4 quarts instead. But it doesn't take up much counter space-looks cute, and it works for most recipes. I had to modify one Chili recipe, due to it being too small. So, not at all too big for one person. I had something smaller when I started, but I couldn't imagine going smaller than this now.I've had this one for a year and half. Had to get it replaced just recently. The electronics went out and cracks formed around the readout. 3yr warranty, replaced the old one no problem.

Smaller pizza is fine. I get the biggest that fits in my oven and storage space. Also, I get a solid aluminum pan the same size for cutting.BTW, I use the screen in convection oven to make things crispy, particularly frozen or reheated French fries.

I'm sorry Sheila, I really wish I had as experience as you seem to have had, cooking for a family seems impossible since it cooks small amounts of food at a time. I found nothing juicy, tender nor crispy with the food and believe I tried various foods and temperatures before I returned it. I still feel its total waste of money a convection counter oven does a wonderful job, fast, juicy, crispy food in half the time of a regular oven and cooking spray still offers grease feel food. And takes up less space without all the clear up!

Whoops,my previous dimensions were for the WFO (wood fired oven) Super Peel, for I have that one too. As for the Super Peel Pro, Karen's specs are right on. Sorry for the confusion.

It is huge! The measurements are correct. Mine only worked for about a month before it died. It never worked as good as the one with the trays that did not remove

I can't compare the Miele and Fagor but I have been using my Fagor for about six months and am very happy with it. It's fast and much cleaner than using the burners on a stove. It does not cook delicate food very well - like eggs and salmon. And, you must stay in the kitchen when you are cooking because it is so fast you can't leave it unattended. The fan is also a little loud when you are cooking with the unit but you get used to it. Good luck.

I don't know much about the Phillips Viva Air Fryer. The Living Basix LB100 has been doing a great job for us. We fried chicken wings, French fries, fish fillet etc. and all were done perfectly. I think it has a better value for the money.

I love the 650, but the difference just appears to be the size and the addition of the broiling rack (which I have not yet used). And of course the price. I have room for the larger model and as I have it on a counter that is in the open, I also bought the cutting board that fits on top of the 650 as the unit gets hot on top when it is on. Given they have the same features and power, it should just come down to the size issue and your available space.

The microwave is smaller than we thought 19wx10.5H,the face plate is 23x15. You need space because it gets it air from the frount, you may have to trim out around the area. Check rv and marine dealers for better selection. The mfg was for rv. It had a smell for a couple months. It also has a knocking noise when certain plates are put in. We replaced a built in with this unit. For the price it was great, service avg to below avg.

I had a 7qt slow cooker. Just two of us, so I ordered the 4 Qt and think it will be much better for us. The bigger size was just too big.
