The Philips 3000 Series Dual Basket NA350/00 is a 9.5-quart air fryer with one large and one small basket. Together, they provide enough capacity to cook for about five people. It features a touch-sensitive panel with preset options like Reheat, Fish, and Vegetables. You can choose one setting for both baskets, or choose different settings so the baskets finish cooking at the same time. This air fryer also features a shake reminder on certain settings, and its baskets are dishwasher-safe.

Our Verdict

7.4
French Fries 

The Philips Dual Basket Airfryer's performance for French fries depends on the type you're making. When you cook frozen fries, they come out very quickly and evenly cooked, with just a few mushy and burnt pieces in the batch. Fresh-cut fries cook somewhat more slowly and less evenly. Although most of the batch still comes out at least partially crispy, very few pieces are evenly browned, and a few don't crisp up at all. It also takes up a lot of space on your counter, but the flip side is that, between the two baskets, it gives you space to spread out large batches of fries in a single layer, which helps them come out crispier.

Pros
  • Cooks fried foods very evenly.

  • Leaves proteins moist after cooking.

  • Cooks fried foods quickly.

  • Cooks moist foods within a decent timeframe.

  • Together, the baskets offer enough surface area to arrange food in a single layer.

Cons
  • Doesn't crisp moist foods evenly across the batch.

  • Preheats very slowly, adding to the overall cooking time.

  • Smaller basket has limited surface area, so it's tricky to spread food out.

  • Bulky design isn't ideal for small spaces.

7.7
Chicken Wings 

The Philips Dual Basket Airfryer is best suited to cooking precooked, frozen wings. Each batch crisps up very evenly and finishes cooking fast, with only a few pieces that don't crisp up enough or burn early. Fresh wings take longer to cook, and while most of the batch comes out somewhat crispy, not very many brown evenly, and one or two wings come out pale and rubbery. That said, they don't lose very much fat throughout cooking, so they stay tender and juicy. Between both baskets, there's a good amount of surface area, so you can spread out a large batch of wings to get the best possible results, whether you're making fresh or frozen.

Pros
  • Cooks fried foods very evenly.

  • Leaves proteins moist after cooking.

  • Cooks fried foods quickly.

  • Cooks moist foods within a decent timeframe.

  • Together, the baskets offer enough surface area to arrange food in a single layer.

Cons
  • Doesn't crisp moist foods evenly across the batch.

  • Preheats very slowly, adding to the overall cooking time.

  • Smaller basket has limited surface area, so it's tricky to spread food out.

7.3
Air Frying 

The Philips Dual Basket Airfryer offers decent air-frying performance. It works best for fried foods, like frozen onion rings, spring rolls, and chicken nuggets, which come out very evenly cooked and crispy. Fresh vegetables and meat don't cook as evenly. At 400 °F, the maximum temperature is lower than that of many other models, and it takes a long time to reheat after you open the drawer to add cold food. Consequently, it can't crisp the exterior of fatty proteins and moist vegetables effectively enough to provide satisfactory results. Once the temperature recovers, the air fryer tends to overshoot the set point, so leaner meats, like pork chops, can overcook. On the bright side, proteins stay moist and juicy throughout cooking because only a small amount of fat is rendered. It's not very versatile, either. It does have a fairly wide range of temperature settings, but its fan runs at a single speed, which limits what you can cook. It's not slow enough for dehydrating or baking delicate items, but it's not very fast either, which contributes to the long cooking times.

Pros
  • Cooks fried foods very evenly.

  • Leaves proteins moist after cooking.

Cons
  • Doesn't crisp moist foods evenly across the batch.

  • Lacks versatility for other cooking modes, like dehydrating or broiling.

8.6
Cooking Capacity 

The Philips Dual Basket Airfryer has an exceptionally large 9.5-quart capacity, enough to serve about five people. Its large 6.18-quart basket is ideal for mains and can accommodate about four servings of fries, veggies, or wings. Its small 3.10-quart basket has less capacity than we usually recommend, but it's handy for small servings and single items. Combined, the baskets have plenty of surface area, so you can spread food out in a single layer for the best results; just be careful not to overload the small basket.

Pros
  • Large capacity can make approximately five servings at once.

  • Together, the baskets offer enough surface area to arrange food in a single layer.

Cons
  • Smaller basket has limited surface area, so it's tricky to spread food out.

7.3
Cooking Speed 

The Philips Dual Basket Airfryer preheats slowly but cooks frozen fried foods, like fries or mozzarella sticks, quickly, and finishes cooking thicker foods or those with higher moisture content, such as wings or broccoli florets, in a decent amount of time.

Pros
  • Cooks fried foods quickly.

  • Cooks moist foods within a decent timeframe.

Cons
  • Preheats very slowly, adding to the overall cooking time.

6.3
Size 

The Philips Dual Basket Airfryer is large and takes up a lot of counter space. Of course, this is expected given its 9.5-quart capacity.

    Popular Air Fryer Comparisons

    The Philips 3000 Series Airfryer is a large 9.5-quart dual-basket air fryer with two different basket sizes. This model performs better than the single-basket Philips 2000 series 4.2L NA220/00. No matter what you're making, it leaves more of each batch crispy and well-browned, and while it takes longer to preheat, it cooks significantly faster. That said, this air fryer doesn't match the capabilities of top-performing dual-basket models, like the Ninja Foodi DZ550 or the Ninja Crispi DualZone DD101. It cooks less evenly than either Ninja model, leaving more of each batch of fries, chicken nuggets, wings, or steak undercooked or burnt. Plus, with wider temperature ranges and variable fan speeds, you can use the Ninja models for alternate applications like dehydrating, roasting, and broiling.

    If you're curious what we recommend, see our picks for the best air fryers, the best large-capacity air fryers, or the best air fryers for French fries.

    Ninja Foodi DZ550

    Track

    The Ninja Foodi DZ550 is a better air fryer than the Philips 3000 Series Dual Basket NA350/00. While they offer comparable performance when making thicker proteins like wings, drumsticks, or meatballs, the Ninja crisps small or precooked foods, like frozen fries and chicken nuggets, more evenly. It also maintains a more stable temperature throughout cooking, which helps ensure baked goods don't dry out or burn, and it offers greater versatility, making it a better option for alternative cooking methods like dehydrating, broiling, and roasting.

    Ninja Foodi DZ201

    Track

    The Ninja Foodi DZ201 is a better air fryer for most people than the Philips 3000 Series Dual Basket NA350/00. Both of these dual-basket air fryers make good-quality fried food, but the Ninja produces results much faster. It's also more versatile. It has a higher maximum temperature, a range of fan speeds, and more preset cooking modes, so it's a better option if you plan to use your air fryer for a variety of cooking methods. The Philips does offer a bit more capacity, though, and some may prefer its small and large drawers over the Ninja's matching drawers.

    Beautiful 9QT TriZone

    Track

    The Beautiful 9QT TriZone and Philips 3000 Series Dual Basket NA350/00 are both decent dual-basket air fryers, and you may prefer one over the other depending on your preferences. The Philips comes out ahead with air fryer classics like fries and wings. The Beautiful, on the other hand, maintains a more stable temperature while cooking and offers more versatility. It has a wider range of temperature settings, fan speeds, and cooking modes, making it a better option if you plan to use your air fryer for a variety of cooking tasks. Unfortunately, neither model works very fast.

    Philips 2000 series 4.2L NA220/00

    Track

    The Philips 3000 Series Dual Basket NA350/00 is a better air fryer than the Philips 2000 series 4.2L NA220/00 for most people. As a dual-basket model, the 3000 offers greater capacity and the ability to cook two recipes simultaneously using different settings. Whether you're making a quick plate of frozen fries or cooking wings, pork chops, or steak from scratch, the 3000 also cooks more evenly, so more of each batch comes out crispy. It cooks faster, too, regardless of the recipe. Of course, if you don't have space for a dual-basket model, you may still prefer the 2000, which takes up less counter space.

    The drawers have a large combined surface area, so there's plenty of space to spread things out in a single layer for the crispiest results. The crisper plates have a PTFE non-stick coating, making them easy to clean, though some people avoid traditional non-stick coatings.

    The large basket has 84.3 in² (544.1 cm²) of surface area, which is a lot for a single drawer.

    The small basket has a surface area of 35.280 in² (227.6 cm²). This is quite small, making it difficult to spread food out for the best results.

    The Philips NA350 has a large 9.5-quart capacity between its two drawers, which is enough to serve up to five people. Like the crisper plates, the drawers have a PTFE non-stick coating.

    The large drawer has a 6.18-quart (5.85 L) capacity, though the internal basket leaves gaps along the sides, reducing the drawer's capacity to 5.43 quarts (5.14 L) when added.

    The small drawer has a 3.10-quart (2.94 L) capacity. This is smaller than we typically recommend, since a larger basket with more surface area allows for better air flow and more even cooking.

    The Philips NA350 offers reasonable versatility. It has a pretty wide range of temperature settings, but unfortunately, you can't change the fan speed. The set fan speed isn't low enough for applications like dehydrating or baking delicate foods, and it's also not high enough to produce extra crispy food.

    You can use both drawers together or just one at a time. When you use both drawers, it has a high maximum power draw, but it only uses 1035W when you use only the large drawer and 575W when using the small drawer, which can affect how effectively it cooks.

    It has one preset cooking mode, which is the same regardless of which basket you use:

    • Reheat: 320 °F, 5 minutes

    There are also a number of food presets, which differ depending on the basket you use:

    Large Basket

    • Frozen Potato-Based Snacks: 400 °F, 38 minutes (shake reminder active)
    • Fresh Fries: 360 °F, 36 minutes (shake reminder active)
    • Chicken Drumsticks: 400 °F, 30 minutes
    • Fish: 360 °F, 25 minutes
    • Cake: 280 °F, 50 minutes
    • Meat Chops: 400 °F, 24 minutes
    • Vegetables: 400 °F, 25 minutes (shake reminder active)

    Small Basket

    • Frozen Potato-Based Snacks: 400 °F, 35 minutes (shake reminder active)
    • Fresh Fries: 360 °F, 36 minutes (shake reminder active)
    • Chicken Drumsticks: 400 °F, 28 minutes

    • Cake: 320 °F, 20 minutes
    • Meat Chops: 400 °F, 24 minutes
    • Vegetables: 400 °F, 30 minutes (shake reminder active)

    You can program the same setting for both baskets, or choose different settings for each basket and have them finish at the same time. The companion app, HomeID (formerly Kitchen+), offers additional suggested settings.

    The Philips NA350 produces mostly crispy fried food. When using the large basket, frozen fried foods like fries, spring rolls, and precooked wings come out evenly cooked and mostly crispy, with just a small portion left mushy or burnt.

    Using the smaller basket produces a similar result, as you can see in our fry-sorting video. It also produces mostly crispy fried food, with 78.1% of each batch being well-cooked, 9.4% overcooked, and 12.5% undercooked. It's worth noting, however, that our regular 250 g batch of fries was pretty crowded in the small basket, and it'll probably produce even better results with smaller portions or single items.

    This air fryer provides an alright performance for meat and poultry. The maximum temperature is 400 °F, and this model takes a while to heat back up after you open the drawer to add food, so fatty proteins don't crisp up as much as they should. Most of each batch of wings, pork belly, or steak still comes out at least somewhat crispy, but only a few pieces end up completely crispy, while a couple don't crisp up at all. Once the air fryer heats back up, it overshoots the set temperature a bit, so leaner meats that require lower temperatures to cook properly, like pork chops, can end up overcooked. That said, only a small amount of fat renders during cooking, so while proteins don't cook particularly evenly, they stay moist and tender.

    This air fryer delivers acceptable temperature stability. When using the large basket, it takes a long time to heat back up after you open the drawer to add food. This delay can make it tricky to follow recipes correctly. That said, its temperature stays decently stable once it reaches the chosen setting.
