What’s actually slowing this PC down?
Pick the symptom - the matching free tool is one click away.
The Sunbeam AFP6000BK’s main selling point is a removable divider that lets it work as one large compartment or two independently programmed zones. That flexibility may suit households that alternate between cooking a larger item and making two foods together, but available public evidence does not establish how evenly or quickly it cooks. This review covers the published specifications, controls, setup and cleaning, and what remains unverified for the Australia and New Zealand model.
What the AFP6000BK is
Sunbeam describes the AFP6000BK as a multi-zone air fryer oven. Insert the removable centre wall to create two compartments; remove it to make one larger cooking space. In dual-zone mode, each side can use its own function, temperature and time. Sunbeam says the single-compartment configuration can accommodate a whole roast chicken up to 2.2kg; that is a manufacturer claim, not an independent fit test.

There is a capacity discrepancy worth noting before relying on the headline figures. Sunbeam’s product headline and narrative state 11.4L in single-zone mode or 2 × 5.5L in dual-zone mode, while a specification row on the same page says “1.4L.” The official guide describes one large 11L compartment or two programmable compartments. The source does not explain the 1.4L entry, so it appears inconsistent with the surrounding material, but should not be silently treated as a confirmed usable capacity. Sunbeam’s product page and the ANZ user guide provide the respective descriptions.

MATCH: same settings on both sides
MATCH copies the settings from zone 1 to zone 2. It is useful when cooking the same food in both compartments with the same function, temperature and time.
#1 Best Overall
- Read Before You Buy — No Video Output: These adapters support charging and USB 2.0 data transfer, but cannot transmit video signals. Except for standard USB webcams (which use USB data only), they are not compatible with HDMI/DisplayPort cables, video-capable USB-C hubs, or docking stations with video output.
- Convert USB-A Ports to USB-C: Designed to connect USB-C earphones, cables, flash drives, card readers, and other USB-C accessories to standard USB-A ports. Plug-and-play with no drivers or software required.
- Aluminum Alloy Housing: Built with a sturdy aluminum alloy shell that aids in heat dissipation and protects against daily wear and scratches. Designed to maintain a stable and secure connection.
- Compact & Travel-Friendly: The ultra-compact design allows the adapter to stay plugged into your device without blocking adjacent ports or adding bulk, reducing wear and tear on your original USB ports.
- 12-Month Warranty: Backed by a 12-month manufacturer warranty for peace of mind. Designed to meet strict quality control standards for reliable everyday performance.
SYNC: different settings, coordinated finish
SYNC coordinates two different programs so both zones finish together. The zone with the longer programmed cooking time starts first. The manual sets a maximum permitted time difference; if your foods need a larger gap, it advises delaying when you add food to the side with the shorter cooking time.
Both controls depend on the divider being installed. With the divider removed, the unit operates as one large compartment, and zone selection, MATCH and SYNC are unavailable. Sunbeam’s quick reference guide suggests dual-zone combinations such as steak and chips or salmon and vegetables, and single-zone foods such as a whole chicken, pizza, fries or cake. These are usage examples, not comparative cooking results.
Functions, presets and included accessories
The manufacturer lists six cooking functions—Air Fry, Turbo Crisp, Roast, Grill, Bake and Reheat—and four food presets: fries, chicken, meat and vegetables. Its product narrative also mentions “10 presets,” but the detailed specifications and manual distinguish six functions plus four food presets. Calling them ten separate automatic food programs would overstate what the documentation establishes.

Footprint, power and published specifications
Sunbeam New Zealand lists the following specifications. These are manufacturer-published values, not measurements independently taken for this review.

Allow for clearance as well as the unit’s listed dimensions. The guide says to keep it at least 200mm from walls and curtains, avoid confined spaces, and put a heat-proof mat or chopping board beneath it. It cautions against placing the appliance on stone or stone-polymer composite benchtops because heat may make those surfaces susceptible to cracking. Check the plug, electrical requirements and warranty terms for your country.

What public independent evidence says
CHOICE’s public product page displays a 68% CHOICE Expert Rating; the publication year is not shown on the captured page. It also lists a $299 price, 11L claimed capacity, 37 × 35 × 38cm dimensions, 9.7kg weight, 2400W claimed power, an 80–230°C temperature range and four food presets. These are CHOICE-attributed figures and should not be blended with Sunbeam’s specifications: for example, the listed weight and dimensions differ. The $299 is a page-listed price, not a verified current offer.

Using and cleaning the appliance
Loading trays and choosing a position
When using the air-fry tray, the guide advises placing a roasting tray on a lower rail to catch oil or crumbs, with the air-fry tray above it to preserve airflow. It warns that high-fat food on the top roasting-tray position may produce more smoke because it is near the heating element.

For frozen food cooked on all four trays at once, Sunbeam recommends adding 3–4 minutes. This is a manufacturer instruction, not independently verified performance guidance.
Cleaning the removable parts and oven
Sunbeam says the baskets, trays, removable divider and handle are dishwasher safe. Unplug the oven and let it cool fully before cleaning; wipe the interior with warm soapy water. Do not immerse the oven, cord or plug, and avoid abrasive cleaners, scrubbing brushes and chemical cleaners.
Cooking guidance and food safety
The manual’s cooking table is a starting point, not a guarantee for every cut, load or arrangement. It says size and thickness may require experimentation and that food must be cooked thoroughly to a food-safe temperature. Its examples include:
Best Value

| Food and quantity | Sunbeam guide recommendation |
|---|---|
| Frozen thick-cut fries, 500–700g | 20–25 minutes at 200°C |
| Chicken wings, 1kg | 30–35 minutes at 180°C |
| Whole roast chicken, 1.8–2.2kg | 80–90 minutes at 170°C |
These are recommendations from the Sunbeam AFP6000BK User Guide, not results from independent testing. The manual’s instruction is: “Always ensure that the food is thoroughly cooked to food-safe temperature throughout before consuming.”
Who may find the design useful
The format is most relevant if you expect to switch between two smaller cooking jobs and a larger single-compartment load, and value separate timing with a coordinated finish. Whether it is a good fit depends on your counter space, available power and the foods you cook; published capacity figures alone do not settle practical usable space. If you need verified crispness, evenness or speed comparisons, the public evidence cited here is insufficient to make those claims.
