Bosch Series 4 6.1L Air Fryer Black | MAF462B0GB

Bosch Series 4 MAF462B0GB Air Fryer — 6.1L, Black

A serious single-basket air fryer from a serious appliance brand

Most air fryers on the market come from small-appliance brands you've never heard of. When Bosch decided to make one, they applied the same build standards they use on their washing machines and ovens — which means motors, seals and coatings that hold up over years rather than months. The Bosch Series 4 MAF462B0GB is a 6.1L single-basket air fryer with 10 pre-programmed cooking modes, a large clear window into the basket, and enough capacity to cook a whole chicken or feed a family of four in one go. Part of our small kitchen appliances range.

6.1 litres is the size where an air fryer actually replaces the oven for weeknight cooking. Chips for four, a whole chicken up to about 1.5kg, a tray of roasting veg — all fit in one go. The dehydrate function turns it into a low-temperature dryer for making banana chips, apple rings or beef jerky at home. Being a Bosch, the fan bearings are quieter and the non-stick coating is more resistant to scratching than what you get on cheaper models.

FAQs

Q: Will it fit a whole chicken?
A: Yes — up to roughly 1.5kg comfortably. Larger birds (2kg+) may need to be spatchcocked to fit.

Q: Do I need to pre-heat it?
A: For most foods, no. For steaks and other quick-cook proteins, 2-3 minutes of pre-heat gives a better sear.

Q: Is the basket dishwasher-safe?
A: Yes — both the basket and the crisper tray are dishwasher-safe. Hand-washing is gentler on the non-stick coating over the long term.
