Rating of the best air grill manufacturers

Caso

Rating: 4.9

Why it: Combination of high power and eye-catching design.

Caso – German manufacturer of household appliances. The company is quite young, its first devices were introduced relatively recently, in the 2000s. But it’s still worth a look, because it combines the famous German quality approach with modern design of its products.

Caso air grills don’t look like cooking utensils. Glossy black surfaces, chrome elements, smooth lines – the devices look more like a work of modern art than like household appliances. So they fit perfectly into any kitchen design.

In addition, the company Caso specializes in highly professional kitchen appliances, which may well be used in restaurants, and aerogrills are no exception. Convection ovens from this manufacturer have an increased power (from 1500 watts), so they are perfect for cooking any dishes, including kebabs of very tender and juicy foods.

Rating: 4.8

Why it: Low price and attractive design.

Like the previous manufacturer on the list, Philips (which, by the way, is also based in Germany) combines advanced functionality and attractive design in its air grills. And even if its models do not look as futuristic as Caso’s, they will still be a real gem in the kitchen.

It’s worth noting that Philips’ range of air grills is not all that great. At the time of this writing (February 2019), the manufacturer supplied only two models to Russia. They differ in capacity and cup capacity – one is designed for infrequent home use, the second belongs to a slightly more professional class.

Designed primarily for home use, these devices support automatic cooking modes. This makes them very easy to use and suitable even for inexperienced users.

Hotter

Rating: 4.8

Why it is: Large range and American made, and easy to cook.

Unlike the previous two manufacturers in the rating, in developing air grills Hotter company focuses not on design but on practicality. That’s why the bowls of its devices are made of transparent glass, so you can independently assess the degree of readiness of food and, if necessary, interrupt the heat treatment.

In addition, there are about a dozen air grills in the Hotter range, including quite specialized ones. For example Fitness model offers special steam and water spray technologies to preserve useful qualities of food. Economy New oven has adjustable power, so it will not overuse electricity. And the Classic version is available in two versions – with a removable and hinged lid, so you can choose the right one for the side dish.

Thanks to this, a long service life is achieved, which is confirmed by a long warranty period from the manufacturer.

But the functionality of Steba aero grills is quite standard. Like other models in the list, they offer a delayed start, an off timer, several automatic cooking programs, a keep warm mode and much, much more.

GFgril

Rating: 4.7

Why it is: Low price and non-standard design of aerogrills.

But it is not only unusual design that convection ovens from this manufacturer can boast. They also use the proprietary Rapid Air Circ technology

ate System, which ensures the rapid movement of hot air outside and inside the bowl. Thanks to this the food is cooked faster, but retains its juiciness, flavor and usefulness.

Zigmund Shtain

Rating: 4.7



Why is it: The multifunctionality of manufactured kitchen appliances.

European company Zigmund Shtain is not the most famous manufacturer of kitchen and household appliances (and, in particular, air grills) in the world. But this does not prevent it from producing quite interesting and multifunctional devices. The convection ovens in its product line combine the capabilities of an electric fryer, an aerogrill, and other useful kitchen gadgets.

Therefore, the technique from this manufacturer can be quite recommended to those users who do not want to “bother” with the process of cooking and can give in to the taste in comparison with the complexity of cooking.
