    My big one has so many settings and so far it has been perfect for everything. EXCEPT when I put FROZEN Chicken BReast and it needed more time.

    I really want one of these to make stuff in but I want one that fits enough for two people at a time. We almost bought one and my husband "wanted to research it more"... sooooo we don't have one. lol

    I have one and love it! We have tried it for pizza rolls, chicken tenders, chicken nuggets, fries, tater tots, onion rings, and just recently cooked raw chicken breast in it. I took out recipe books from the library and there are a ton of recipes on Pinterest too. I found a breakfast bomb recipe on there and we have made them a lot. I have the Bella Pro Series 5.3 qt. digital air fryer in stainless steel.

    I may have to ask my friends to see if one has one and will demonstrate it for me first.

    @bestcee Freezer for most except the chicken but you can definitely do all of those homemade :) I haven't had anything come out greasy and it's so much quicker and easier in my opinion.

    Interesting. I'm now considering one. I'll have to watch for sales!

    Mine is stuck in the cupboard,and hasn't seen day light in a long time. Yes it does make it brown, but not always crispy enough for me, it makes noise,it consumes a lot of electricity,and takes longer than a fryer,but not as long as the oven I suppose. The only thing I have done it it that is better than other methods is spring rolls.
    I might get it out again after reading this,and try again.....nae.... I won't.
    Of subject; if you start your baked potato in the microwave for 7 min,then straight in a hot oven, they are both fast and have a lovely crisp skin.

    Black Friday sales. Amazon already has some for sale.

    I was curious about them so started looking to see what is out there. I really don't need another appliance and right now can't eat anything I could cook in it, but it sure is tempting to get one for the day that I can.

    How long do you leave them in the oven and at what temp? Yes, this is all I’ve take away from the conversation!

    @patsyt LOL, 180 Celsius for about 25 min , it depends on the size of the potatoes .
