Re: Air Fryer - what to get?
We are a family of 5 but have some big eaters, so I'm definitely interested in hearing more about the larger ones.

Re: Air Fryer - what to get?
My sister just bought a Turkey Air Fryer. It's HUGE!! She sent me a picture of it with a 20 lb turkey inside.

Re: Air Fryer - what to get?
I love having an air fryer and love mine but it’s needed repairs (warranty) so I wouldn’t recommend it
We use it for so much stuff. Anything we’d bake fry or toast. Dh makes homemade breaded chicken and garlic bread regularly , anything frozen that needs cooking. I have the rack type (counter top oven). If we weren’t a gf/gluten mixed house this would replace my toaster for sure as my waffles and toast are faster than the gluten peoples toast and waffles LOL I make bacon My family uses it more than daily I’ve also made a ton of random homemade items when I crave them—- homemade onion rings, homemade mozzarella sticks, homemade egg rolls. I don’t wanna ever live without one again. Our oven may have broken and we r like “eh the toaster oven is fine for now” and not in an emergency hurry to fix it. We will fix it because I can’t fit a lot of stuff in it but it’s a lovely option And makes “fried foods” so so not greasy and so much faster. My requirements when I get a new one *minimum two wire racks *a sheet pan that fits (we have a custom one that slides in like a rack). *rotisserie attachment I have to ask DH who uses it more heavily. He was skeptical when I bought it but it’s very heavily used now. I spent $300 on ours. When it died we got a brand new one. Time will tell if the second one lasts and it was just a random quality control issue. Size is important and I can’t help the bigger families. We do NOT have big eaters (opposite actully) and have a household of 4 now. Many nights we cook for obit 2 or 3 due to work schedules . It’s rare all 4 of us are home for dinner

Re: Air Fryer - what to get?
I definitely want one with racks, not baskets.
Costco has one with racks and a rotisserie. It was $40 off the first two weeks if November, but I didn't buy. I'm going to keep watching the price. |

Re: Air Fryer - what to get?
Our toaster oven died this week and my dh just ordered a Ninja Foodi Toaster/Convection oven combo. I don't think he realized there was the flip-out-of-the-way option because he got the (I think, larger) cube model. I tend to use electrics in hot weather, so maybe the bigger size will be an advantage. I'll let you know.
