You can also control this airfryer with your mobile phone, thanks to the HomeID app. In the app, you can choose a recipe to send to the airfryer. The app sets the temperature and time for you.

Premium: dials and buttons
You can control the premium model with the large dial. Use it to set the temperature and time for your dish. You'll also find buttons on the sides of the control screen. You can use these buttons to switch the airfryer on or off and change settings.
Preparation technolog
Connected: RapidAir or Rapid CombiAir technology
The Connected models use the RapidAir or Rapid CombiAir technology. With the RapidAir technology, you need little to no oil. The hot air blows into the pan from above. The propeller moves the air down and distributes it evenly over your pan. This way, you always get a crispy result. The Rapid CombiAir technology adjusts the correct airflow to your type of dish.
Premium: Fat Removal technology
With the Fat Removal technology, the airfryer collects the fat right away during the preparation. The fat ends up at the bottom of the pan. This makes it easy to clean the bottom after use. Just like with the RapidAir technology, the hot air circles through the pan. This distributes the air evenly over your dish. That's useful, because you always have crispy fries and snacks this way.
Number of people
Both the Connected and the Premium XXL model have a 1.4kg capacity. These airfryers allow you to prepare fries for 4 to 5 people in one go. That's useful if you have a large family or often have friends over. Thanks to the large basket, you can also prepare large pieces of meat, fish, or a whole chicken in addition to fries and snacks.
Included accessories
With some Connected models, you also receive a baking pan or meat thermometer. You can use the baking pan to make a cake, risotto, or a whole chicken, for example. You can measure the temperature of your chicken or pork with the meat thermometer. That's useful, as you can see whether your meat is ready at a glance. The standard premium model doesn't include any accessories. You can purchase these accessories separately to can expand the preparation methods of your airfryer.
Conclusion
Both airfryers have the same 1.4kg capacity. The major differences are in the controls and technology. You can also control the Connected model with your mobile phone, and it uses the Rapid (Combi)Air technology. This means that you always get a crispy result. Want to easily clean the collected fat after use? The premium model is the best choice for you.
