Our verdict on each
Delonghi
De'Longhi suits households that want a single maker covering espresso, bean to cup, pod and drip machines. Its 3 year warranty, a grinder inside the flagship automatics and support across email, chat and phone make it a steady choice for US kitchens planning more than a single purchase.
ParisRhone
ParisRhone suits households that want a large, high program air fryer at a mid range price. The 16 litre capacity and 11 programs do the heavy lifting, and the 1 year warranty keeps the risk low for a first time buyer.

Pros and cons
Delonghi
Pros
- A grinder is built into the flagship automatic, so no separate grinder is needed on the worktop.
- Coverage spans espresso, bean to cup, pod, drip and grinder options, more types than espresso, drip and grinder at Gastroback or bean to cup and espresso at Philips.
- Cover runs 3 years and a spare parts shop is available for replacements afterwards.
Cons
- The flagship reaches $2,499.95, so the top of the range sits far above the $549.95 entry point.
- Availability is limited to US, a single market, so the $2,499.95 flagship and its warranty are quoted for that market alone.
- Daewoo Electricals and Gastroback both list drip and espresso machines in drip, espresso and grinder and espresso, drip and grinder, covering the simpler end where De'Longhi's range starts higher at $549.95.
ParisRhone
Pros
- A 16 litre capacity sits well above the smaller fryers most brands sell for the money
- 11 programs give you preset cooking without setting heat and time each time
- Dishwasher safe parts cut down the washing up after a big cook
Cons
- Support runs on email only, so a fault means writing rather than talking it through
- The range is air fryer only, so there is no multicooker to pair it with in the CA, DE and US markets
- Entry price of $140.38 sits mid table for the category, not at the budget end
Who each suits
Delonghi
Who it suits
- Households that want espresso, bean to cup, pod and drip from a single maker.
- Shoppers in the US market who want a 3 year warranty and a spare parts shop.
- Buyers who want the grinder inside the machine, as the flagship automatic has one built in.
Who should look elsewhere
- Drinkers after pod machines alone, since Philips lists bean to cup and espresso and De'Longhi's pod route runs on nespresso original capsules as one option among several.
- Budget buyers who would start with drip, as Gastroback lists espresso, drip and grinder.
- Shoppers outside the US market, since US is the only support country listed.
ParisRhone
Who it suits
- Households cooking for several people who want one appliance rather than a smaller batch fryer
- First time air fryer buyers who want dishwasher safe parts and a warranty in place
- Shoppers in the CA, DE and US markets who can buy the range directly
Who should look elsewhere
- You want a multicooker as well, where GASTROBACK covers air fryer, multicooker and blender
- You need multicooker pressure cooking, where Chef iQ builds around multicooker
- You want help beyond email, since support runs on email only

Questions about each
Delonghi
What does the cheapest De'Longhi coffee machine cost?+
The automatic espresso range starts at $549.95. That is the entry machine rather than a subscription or a deposit, so the outlay is the price of the machine itself. The flagship automatic sits well above it at $2,499.95, which is the ceiling this range reaches in the category.
Is the grinder built into the machine?+
On the flagship automatic, yes. A grinder is built in, so whole beans go in without a separate grinder taking up worktop space. The water tank on that automatic holds 1.8 litres and the pump pressure is 19 bar.
ParisRhone
How much does a ParisRhone air fryer cost?+
The range starts at $140.38. That entry price places it at 61 of 87 brands in the air fryer and multicooker ranking, so you are buying mid range rather than budget. The 1 year warranty is included at that price.
How big is the basket?+
The basket holds 16 litres, which is enough for a family sized portion in one session. On capacity the brand ranks 8 of 69 brands in the category, so it sits well above the small fryers most people start with.
