Brand choice usually comes down to three things. The first is warranty length. Philips and Havells print two years, Wonderchef prints a two-year on-site warranty, and Prestige and Crompton print one year. KENT does not state it on the page used here.
The second is basket size. KENT leads with its 7-litre model. Wonderchef and Crompton sit in the middle. Philips, Havells and Prestige offer smaller baskets.
The third is the extras each maker stresses. Prestige names a safety interlock. Havells names overheat protection. Wonderchef supplies a cookbook. Crompton names quieter running. Pick the extra you would use every week.
A small household can start with the Philips Digital Airfryer HD9252/90 4.1L and the Havells Prolife Brio Air Fryer 4.2 L. Both have a two-year warranty. The Philips adds a touch panel with an LED display. The Havells keeps manual controls with a 60-minute timer and auto shut-off.
A family that cooks in batches should compare the KENT Digital Air Fryer 7L with the two 5 litre models. The KENT lists a 7 litre basket, twelve presets and a keep warm function. The Wonderchef Evita Digital Air Fryer 5L adds a cookbook. The Crompton Ameo Edge 5L Digital Air Fryer lists ten preset menus. The KENT page does not state a warranty, so confirm it before you order.
If a certification mark matters, read the Prestige Nutrifry 4.5L Digital Air Fryer page first. It is ISI certified and has a built-in safety interlock. Its warranty is one year, so weigh that against the two years from Philips and Havells.
Where a maker page leaves a value out, check the retailer page or the manual before you buy. Treat any figure that two parts of a page disagree on with care. The Wonderchef listing, for example, says 12 presets but names only 8.
