    No microwave for 5 years, will never own another one, I have an older air fryer looking into getting a newer one thanks for the review on this one.

    Love our air fryer/toaster oven style. We’ve had it about a year now. We haven’t had a microwave for almost 10 years.

    I have not had the opportunity to buy or own an air fryer but everyone that I know that has one says how much they love it. I have been waiting for more reviews and opinions, so I really appreciate your honest review and take on Air Fryers. I really enjoy your videos and have learned from them. As my family and I get ready to transition to homesteading and more self sustaining and DIY lifestyle. God bless!

    Hello Again Heartway Farms, I had a small air fryer which I had only used a handful of times, so I gave it to my son, who didn't have one yet. Now I am looking to get another one, because I have come across so many recipes recently that I want to use one for. I had also given him my toaster and man, grilled cheese in the air fryer sure sounds good! Thanks again for the great work on your videos!!

    I’ve heard a lot of praise about the air fryers but haven’t decided if I’d really use it or not. Had never heard someone say that you could use it instead of a microwave-that’s an appealing thought.

    I just have a small air fryer - only one temperature 400 - so I can use it on somethings. I do prefer to reheat in the air fryer over the microwave. I didn't have an air fryer for 3 years! I use the microwave for heating coffee and melting butter, which I can use my gas stove for both things. Once it "bites the dust", I don't think I'll replace it. I hope you enjoy your new appliance.

    Thanks for sharing about the air fryer. I haven't looked into them, yet. Sounds like an interesting contraption, especially if it could replace a microwave. We have a microwave (got as a wedding gift...) and a toaster oven (got the toaster oven when our toaster died years ago).

    I bought an air fryer at the beginning of last year and love it. Mine has the basket and my husband dropped it about a month ago. Broke the whole front off it so I glued it back best I could. Still works just not as aesthetically pleasing to the eye. 😊

    Air frying is amazing....best invention in a long time...I love that it is pretty much oil free cooking...and it is greatttt for left overs...if you fry chicken or seafood and there is leftover..put it in the air fryer and it is almost better than the first time you ate it!!

    I like my air fryer too but basically because we are empty nesters now and can make fries for just the 2 of us ! I recently got a newer model that has 12 functions or something like that; even a dehyrating setting, so when I see something that is on it's last leg or something, I can dehydrate 1 tray without hauling out my 9 tray model. and I do like that when company comes, all our toast is done at the same time for breakfast! Our little 2 slice toaster was taking forever and we never ate together...

I use it to toast if I make big batch breakfast sandwiches but I could just use the oven since I bake the eggs in a muffin tin lol. It might have gotten more use when the kids lived at home but we didn't have it then. One of these days

The other appliance that gets used almost every day is my slow cooker. There is only my husband and me and sometimes I take a meal out to my 97 year old father. Will have to do some more thinking and research on whether an air fryer would work for us.

    One thing you need to keep in mind is your electrical system. We bought a 300$ air fryer and almost burnt down the house because our older home could not handle the wattage. Now we have a very expensive piece of equipment that we can't get rid of and can't use.

    Have you used it for a rotisserie chicken? Is it actually big enough for one?
