Where did the recent air fryer trend come from anyway? (startrek.website)

Yeah that's what I said before I got one too.

Air fryers are the shit.

[–] MilitantAtheist 12 points 11 months ago

Agreed, it's the best thing I ever bought.

We have a Ninja hybrid type. That thing is AMAZING almost equal to the value of a microwave

Also got a Ninja one, but we got the thing with dual baskets so you can optionally cook two foods at different temps. Really makes getting those tendies and fries much easier.

Same. Picked it up on Black Friday.
The fries are so much better than from the oven, and nuggets came out super crispy on the outside.

Looking forward to testing more stuff.

I got some $15 one from bestbuy 8 months back I think and it gets used almost every day. I haven't turned on the oven in so long I wonder if it even works...

Biggest disadvantage is that you have another bulky piece of equipment taking up counter space. Best option is to get a convection oven with an air fryer setting. It's even more convenient because it doesn't take up additional space and you don't have to move it in/out of storage. It's always there ready for immediate use.
