Have you tried out an air fryer? Your thoughts on them?


They seem interesting. Would like to get some input from someone on here who has used them. Thanks!

Also, I've read online about cancer risk. Any thoughts on that?

Isn't an air fryer just an oven ?

reply

It's a mini convection oven.

I love my air fryer. It's a great compliment to a microwave oven, as a microwave can't get things crispy, like french fries.

I just Google searched and read online articles that states cancer risk. Hmmm.....

They do seem they have very good reviews online though. Yeah, the cancer thing is probably overblown. The particular brand I have is Ninja Af100. My sister gave it to me. What brand you have?

A very basic Bella 2 quart analog (no fancy digital controls)

I don't get the point.

I bought cosori one from amazon jan 2022. We loved it and it became like a holy object in the kitchen that allowed dad to cook with out making a mess and stressing out.
But 2 weeks ago it just stopped turning on.
They are sending me a replacement as it had a 2 year warranty.
But i dont think ill buy another one from the same company. They said the replacement only has the warranty dated from the purchase of the original. Lame . I like things to last when i take care of them. And i took care of that thing, i fucking loved it. It was like magic.

But i will always have an air fryer from now on. They are just very handy . I just hope they make them to last longer than a year or two.

Oh and it makes pizza and fast food better than how its served . Its like a food recitation machine

Such a good way too cook meat with out splatter everywhere

Nice except for it falling apart in just a year. Which brand do you have? I got the Ninja Af100. My sister gave it to me. Haven't tried it out yet.

This particular air fryer also has a regular oven feature in addition to air fryer method. Do you sometimes use the regular oven feature? When do you use that vs air fryer?

Mine is cosori its a discontinued model. so many brands right now its crazy.
But no mine didn't have the oven feature.

I bought a cheap deep fryer. I can make a pound of fresh fries or a few falafels. I have no interest in air fryers.

Some are just toaster ovens with a basket! I used to bake frozen fries in a toaster oven, but deep fried is much better.

reply

I like mine. It makes fries much better than a conventional oven does. Also don't have to preheat it.

reply

We were so impressed we bought another one within a week.

Also bought other members of the in-law family air fryers for Christmas this year. They love them too.

I'm not gonna lie...the man who invented the air fryer deserves a blow job from every woman that uses them.

reply

I wish I invented it then. 😪

Next time you're on a date with a girl...lie and tell her you invented the air fryer. See what happens after a few drinks.
