WHAT: PHILIPS 2000 SERIES 4.2L AIR FRYER

WHY: In the 1970s, the must-have kitchen appliance was the microwave. Fast forward to the 21st century and no kitchen is complete without an air fryer, and Philips have led the way. They’re simple yet

remarkable devices that let you save time – and cut the fat. And the latest 2000 Series from Philips, in super-fashionable black, delivers a wealth of features that elevate it to a step above. Boasting a 4.2 litre capacity – perfect for up to four portions at a time – there are 13 distinct cooking functions available such as air fry, roast, bake, and grill, all at the press of a button. And Philips’ RapidAir Technology means that you’ll have taste sensations that are crispy on the outside, yet tender on the inside, and with little or no added oil – yum! There’s also a nifty window to keep an eye on what’s cooking, rather than popping the unit open to check. And come clean-up time, just pop the tray in the dishwasher. Simple! WHO: Why run a power-hungry oven when a Philips 2000 Series air fryer can do the same job, quicker, and using less electricity? Air fryers for everybody!

Discovering cool new technology is an exciting prospect! Each month we take a look at some of the latest tech products available from JB Hi-Fi.

WHY: Kim Kardashian brings colour to the headphone space! The popular media personality has selected three distinct shades – Earth, Moon, and Sandstone – to offer some extra choice with your Beats cans.

adaptive active noise cancelling, while also offering a transparency mode for those times when you need to let the outside world in. And if you’re into the joys of lossless audio, the Studio Pros deliver – just connect with the included USB-C cable to your lossless source.
