We don't have one but we have some friends that do, and their teenage boy says he's never had better french fries

We have the Cosori. My wife likes it, I don’t care for it.
To me, it’s a pain to find the correct setting, temp, program, etc.
And, a lot of the time you have to cook in ‘batches’ instead of having all of the recipe in the conventional oven.

I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

I have one and used it a bunch. PITA to clean up. Don't remember what brand.
Wife decided she doesn't like it anymore so I guess I don't either.
I like a crockpot and a dutch oven better.

Wife bought one and another thing like a somewhat pressure cooker, Damn machines set in the way on the counter as she will not put somewhere out of sight.  Have not cared for any of the meals made in either, does OK as to speed but flavors from them are lacking.

Try slicing up sweet potato into French fry strings & air-frye them into sweet potato fries. Works just as well in oven on broil too.

We have the Ninja Air Fryer XL grill. Crinkle cut fries in it are pretty good, but regular fries are excellent. For just the two of us, I really like it. The outside only gets warm to the touch, and it is easy to clean.

I have one and use it almost every day. Tater tots, fries, pork steak, asparagus, chicken breast.

We have a Presto, use it all the time. I'm a big fan.

Just reheated some wings we had left over from yesterday"s dinning out. Four minutes in the Air Fryer, and they tasted like the waitress had just set them in front of me.

Bought the littlest/cheapest I could find, it's just me so meals are small. I like it for doing frozen ready to cook things. It's kinda like having your first microwave, takes a while to get used to. To save space I put it on top of microwave, it's on a roller cart. Like microwave it came with a little cookbook, that has answered most questions on time n temp rather than guessing. I don't like cooking things that take more than 15-20 minutes. I'm not sure how long since I've used a conventional oven except to cook small turkey on T-day or Xmas.

ours is a "nuwave" brand. had it for a couple years now. it works good for lots of things, it doesn't make things rubbery like a microwave does. most items even froze solid takes only 10-15 mins to cook. just remember to pull the machine out away from the back of the counter before using it. there is alot of really HOT air that comes out the back of them, and they have started some kitchens on fire from that. mostly takes the place of an oven taking less time and prolly electric to cook anything. we do like ours for re-heating things up. steak fries come out great from frozen to ready to eat in about 9-11 mins.
