Can anyone help me choose which colour for the new SMEG air fryer??

I love it and have never had an air fryer before. Our kitchen is white gloss with wood floors and light grey work tops.

It’s sold out dude.

I like the storm blue. Thank goodness someone has designed a nicer looking air fryer!

What's the point of yours?

I think they're all a bit boring TBH. My SMEG toaster is the crappiest toaster oven ever owned though. And the kettle's not much better.

@pigmygoatsinjumpers , you shouldn't assume anything. Smile

Green.

The blue one

I realise there are cheaper ones but I don’t want a black plastic ugly box in the kitchen. I think it’s cool, I’m well aware that others won’t like it!

It’s no prettier just because it has the word Smeg on it 😂

What on earth is wrong with white gloss and grey counters?! Our house has those (installed by previous occupant) and I absolutely love it. It's so light and airy and beautiful.

You need to ask?

Blue. I have the filter coffee maker in blue and it's gorgeous

White gloss kitchen with grey worktops? Oh dear, this must be a joke thread.

On the assumption that you are sneering . . .

I would not choose a white gloss kitchen with grey worktops, myself.

However, OP might be renting; she may have bought a house which came with that kitchen and doesn't wish to rip out a serviceable kitchen and pay for another one to be fitted. The house might be a new build which came with that kitchen - lots of reasons why OP might have a white gloss kitchen (which may or may not be to her taste).

I like the smoke blue colour, OP.

Why are so many posters on MN so nasty?

Same. It was the only brand that made a blue one.

Your royal blue one sounds nice.

I have a Smeg fridge. I didn't get it for the label but for the colour.

Yes but whats the point in spending 200 quid for an appliance if the name isn't up front to show off to visitors?

Green
blue
white
black

in that order.

msmillicentcat · 23/09/2026 11:45

I love it! Blue for me.

runnerducky · 23/09/2026 11:40

I like the green!

ithinkilikethislittlelife · 23/09/2026 11:37

Blimey some bloody mean replies on here. I love a bit of smart design and of course there are alternatives that are way cheaper but you’ll see it if it’s on a counter so why on earth would you not go for the most stylish option? I agree with not going for the Matt option though. Matt really shows up any marks. I have a smeg toaster and kettle and it’s my second smeg kettle. They are things of beauty and when they croak I will replace them with similar.

AlwaysExtraHot · 23/09/2026 11:35

Blue, but it's the best of a bad lot IMO. Why do they think everyone wants muted, 'tasteful' colours?
I have a Wonder Oven, which I think is very cute, in a similar blue. They don't do any other really nice colours IMO, but have a look in case you like them? Spice isn't bad.

MyMilchick · 23/09/2026 11:31

Green! Add some colour

BinNightTonight · 23/09/2026 11:30

I'd get the blue or green, but i like a bit of colour!

TaptheCap · 23/09/2026 11:08

Will it be visible? I find large alliances are best kept in cupboards, but obviously only if you have the space.

What colour are the accents in you kitchen? Fo example I definitely have a green "theme" even though my kitchen is cashmere and wood. So despite liking the blue, I wouldn't buy it.

Also, do you think you'll use it? I don't find it big enough but we all eat the same meal.

Whoisit101 · 23/09/2026 11:05

For me i definitely wouldn't buy white. Unless you're an immaculate cook that is a hygiene/cleaning freak you will have a hard job keeping it clean.

My option would be to choose something that will tally in with other decor or appliances.
