        Interesting! But it’s okay, we should move in a few month, and the microwave came with the place, it would be more of a hassle to store it somewhere.

      Not to shill, but we picked up a pretty well known brand combo pressure cooker/air fryer. I thought it was the stupidest thing ever, but I use it all the time, mostly when I don’t want to heat up the house with an oven.

      It lives on the counter directly next to my oven, doesn’t take up a ton of space.

          Search Instant Pot Duo Crisp + Air Fryer. On the pricier end, but at least in our case it’s used frequently enough to justify the cost. You basically get an air fryer, pressure cooker, crockpot, rice cooker, hot plate (well, bowl), etc. in one appliance.

          Just don’t put it on the stove when cooking a side dish on the burner, if you’re the type to turn on the wrong burner. Only an idiot would do that. Ha ha ha…ha…

          this is his second Instant Pot

      If you cook, they’re not for you.

      Air fryers have extraordinarily limited use and they are for novice people who want to reheat food, not cook, just saying

        Really not true. Any time you would use the oven you can use the air fryer… It’s just an oven with convection by default

          That’s great and I hope it helps you begin your journey on cooking.

          I’m glad you acknowledge that they are toys.

          My advice that you didn’t ask for would be just to skip it and learn how to cook because once you learn how to cook you just throw the air fryer in the garbage.

          Mine has been up in my closet for 2 years I just see no need to use it.

            Interesting. The thing, is kind of know how to cook, at least at a basic level. I just work from home and try to make healthy but quick food every day. I also don’t enjoy spend too much time cooking, so that’s what I think an air fryer could work.

            Maybe you should sell you air fryer? They seem quite trendy nowadays.
