@Tinkrbl44 Agree about the air fryer.  I have space for it and hubby was talking about getting one but never followed through.

What does an air fryer do that a microwave, which we use daily, doesn't?  We don't eat french fries!!!

Anyone???

We rarely do french fries.  We do like crispy broccoli, califlower, green beans, chicken fried steak (a tiny amount of olive or grape seed oil, then make a seasoned panko crust), seasoned boneless, skinless chicken breast, fish, baked potatoes, & reheating leftovers.  Easy clean up.  Keeps foods moist on the inside.  No microwave I have ever used keeps things crispy and moist.  That's why I love my Ninja Crispi.  That's just a few things we do.

@Tinkrbl44  I also don't see the need for a toaster oven.  As I've said, we have a microwave that we use a lot and DH has a George Foreman grill which he uses a lot.

We're like you--do not make anything fried.

I must be the only person on the planet who has never had a George Foreman grill.   

I keep saying if they've sold so many, it must be useful, but I'm not much of a barbecue person.  

I use the toaster oven for toast and whatnot, and it's handy for small baking.  I hate using the big oven.

Ninja Crispi! I LOVE the clear glass bowls so I can watch. The best on the market! Got ours on sale last year from Costco.

My Ninja Foodie XL is a multi functional appliance that can bake, grill, griddle, air fry, among some other features.  It stays on the counter because I use it multiple times weekly.

I tried the basket type air fryers ... just a drawer type where you pull it out and put it back in. I just didn't care for the style.

I went to an oven type that would air fry, toast, bake, broil, and am much happier.

I also have the Instant Pot air fryer with the window in it--been using since 2020 and is still going strong. Not sure if there is a sale for airfryers on AMZ 's prime days but I'd take a look!

Thank you everyone for your comments. Now I need to decide.

My Ninja can fry, bake, roast, grill and dehydrate. 
I roast Brussels sprouts, potatoes. Grill chicken, steaks, burgers and fish.
