Good airfryer
Easy to use and program. Lots of options too. Love the airfry/steam option, food came out nice a crispy on the outside but not dry inside, still moist and juicy. Lighter than my last one but taller so you need to check the height of your storage space. Easy to clean, the steam clean does seem to help make it easier to clean after oily/greasier type cooking.

Sunbeam steam air fryer
Easy to use. Good option to use the air fryer for crispy food or the air fryer with steam so food is cooked but not dry.

It's good, but...
Based on the marketing material available for the steam fryer, I had higher expectations that the Airfry + Steam would be a 'game-changer' when it comes to cooking chicken, but the results are just ok. The chicken is no juicier with steam than without. The Airfry function on its own isn't as good as other Airfryers and it cooks unevenly even though there is plenty of space in the basket. The touchscreen is also very fiddly and occasionally unresponsive. The Airfryer also has an auto-shutoff which is annoying when you pause it halfway to flip a chicken, and if you take too long to flip it (longer than a minute), the airfryer will automatically shut off and you need to input the remaining cooking time manually rather than it just continuing (I haven't found a workaround for this yet). Steam also escapes from all sides of the machine.

Great versatile kitchen appliance
I didn’t have a steam function on my previous air fryer. It is a great addition to the features of the air fryer. Have used it alone and with the combination stream/air-fryer setting and have had good results with both. There are many more settings I have yet to try but have been extremely happy with this purchase so far.

At a glance
The Sunbeam Steam Fry Air Fryer + Steam is a mid-range 7 L air fryer for households that want crisp results with added moisture from steam cooking. It suits families, busy home cooks and anyone wanting versatile presets in one compact appliance. Key strengths are steam fry flexibility, easy cleaning and simple touch controls. The main limitation is its single-basket design, which is less flexible than dual-zone premium models.

Things to consider
It uses a single 7 L basket, so it cannot cook two different foods independently like dual-drawer or larger oven-style premium air fryers.
Family size suitability
Good for small to medium families
Healthy cooking score
8/10 - air fry cooking plus steam options support crisp results with less reliance on added oil.
Ease of cleaning
9/10 - Steam Clean plus dishwasher-safe basket and tray make maintenance straightforward.
Counter space friendliness
7/10 - compact enough for most benchtops, though the 40 cm height still needs dedicated space.
Beginner vs expert fit
Beginner-friendly with enough versatility for regular home cooks
Key benefits
- 7 L Basket: Fits family-sized portions and larger batches in one drawer.
- Steam Fry Mode: Helps brown food while retaining more moisture than standard dry air frying.
- Steam Mode: Adds flexibility for vegetables, dumplings and other foods that benefit from gentler cooking.
- Six Preset Programs: Makes common cooking tasks easier with air fry, roast, grill, reheat, steam fry and steam settings.
- Touch Controls: Simplifies operation with a clean, modern interface.
- 360 Degree Hot Air Flow: Promotes more even browning across the basket.
- Steam Clean Function: Helps make routine clean-up easier after cooking.
- Dishwasher-Safe Basket and Tray: Reduces manual washing and speeds up clean-up.
Q: Can it cook two foods at different settings at once
A: No. This model uses one 7L drawer, so the whole basket runs on the same program and timing. It suits larger single-batch meals better than cooking two separate foods that need different temperatures or finish times.
Q: When is steam fry better than regular air fry
A: Steam fry is better when you want browning without such a dry finish, especially for foods that can lose moisture easily. Regular air fry is the better choice when the goal is a firmer, drier crisp on the outside.
Q: Does the steam mode replace a separate food steamer
A: Yes, for everyday steaming. This model has a dedicated steam mode for foods such as vegetables and similar sides, but it is still a single-basket appliance, so it will not steam multiple tiers or separate dishes at once.
Q: Will it fit on a smaller kitchen benchtop
A: Yes, in most cases. At 40cm high, it is designed to sit on most benchtops, but it is still a family-size appliance at 7.1kg, so leave enough space to move it safely and pull the basket out fully.
Q: Is this air fryer suitable for first-time air fryer users
A: Yes. Touch controls and six preset programs keep everyday cooking straightforward, so it is easier to start using than a manual-only model. The main learning curve is choosing between air fry, steam fry and steam for the finish you want.
Q: What does the steam clean setting actually help with
A: The steam clean setting helps loosen cooked-on residue, so the basket and interior are easier to wipe after use. It does not replace normal washing after greasy meals, but the basket and tray can also go in the dishwasher.
