Philips has launched its biggest air fryer yet – the new Airfryer 5000 Series Megabasket. It features a huge 10-litre basket and 3-in-1 cooking functionality, but can still be split into two separate zones so multiple dishes can be prepared at the same time.
As the inventor of the air fryer, Philips already has an impressive lineup of models, including the 4000 Series Stacked Dual Basket Air Fryer, which only launched back in January. The new 5000 Series Megabasket also bears a strong resemblance to the Philips 5000 Air Fryer & Steamer, but as mentioned, swaps its two side-by-side baskets for one large basket.
The Philips Airfryer 5000 Series Megabasket is available to buy now from Amazon for £258.99, and it should be arriving at other retailers soon.
Alongside traditional air frying, the 5000 Series Megabasket features steam cooking and Philips' signature SteamFry technology, which combines steam and hot air to deliver food that's simultaneously crispy and tender. It's also the first Philips air fryer to include an automatic SteamClean function, making the post-dinner clean-up a lot easier.
The original Philips 5000 Air Fryer & Steamer was one of my favourite air fryers released last year, so it came as no surprise when it won Best Air Fryer at the T3 Awards 2025. I'm looking forward to testing the new 5000 Series Megabasket too, so stay tuned for my full review and thoughts.
