After long and careful consideration, we bought an air fryer last week.
Today I offered it for sale on the village Facebook page, as it is not capable of making chips.
What is the use of a fryer which cannot make chips? Surely that is the number one reason why people buy them?
Rant Rant Rant I hate air fryers.
The End.

Love my Emeril air fryer/oven/toaster/dehydrator/oven/warmer, we use it daily. Great way for the kids to cook/fry and toast as as well. Worth every penny imho.

My wife fell for the advertising on one of these. Seems only good at making soggy foods. I am thoroughly unimpressed.
I like my air au naturel.
There are stacks of online recipes and books on cooking with them. Just making baked spuds and chips limits their use. It is just that you need to choose a volume to suit your needs and wishes. A lot, aside from saving electricity bills
I use an air-fryer all the time. I love it. So what if it takes up counter space? I made room for it by chucking the old toaster-oven.
I thought the air was already fried.
I love mine, but fryer isn't exactly the right term for them. They are the toaster oven version of a convection oven. I don't have a convection oven and it's only me, my husband and my son. Sometimes I want to make food for my husband and I that the kid doesn't like, so I can throw something in there for him without having to turn on my whole oven, preheat it, and it takes twice as long. Or everyone else is out and it's just me, I can throw stuff in there. Also helps me cut down on oil. For example, I'll throw my tofu in there for a dish so I don't have to fry it in extra oil. Or I par-cook potatoes in there so I can finish them off in just a little oil in a pan so I get the taste of something pan-fried with substantially less calories. If I try to pan fry potatoes from raw in a pan, I end up having to use a ton of oil or they stick and it takes sooo long.
Yeah we got an air fryer and "gifted" it away within 2 months. It was just too small for our household of 6 and pretty worthless. My sister gave it to a co-worker, a single woman, and it should work fine for her dinky one person appetite.
I have one that spins the food around. It's loud, the stupid stir thing in the middle fell out of the dish rack and broke, and I thought the food tasted like crap anyway. Except zucchini, Zucchini was good.
The fryer is now sitting in my storage locker along with my son's Lego boxes and scattered blocks.
Just unpacked mine today. Hoping that it
Uses less energy than oven
Creates less heat
Cooks more quickly
And mainly make decent French fries at home!
Will keep you posted.
