We really like our Ninja Flip Convection/Toaster Oven/Air Fry thingy.... With just two of us, we use it far more often and only use our regular oven when we're doing big, "stuff the freezer" cooking
We even relegated our microwave to deep storage
I just wish the Ninja thingy was easier to clean, especially inside

@TechConnectify I disagree with the conclusion that you can't combine a toaster oven with an air fryer. This thing lives in my kitchen and does mini-ovening and air frying both very well. It's on the expensive side, but at least when I got it it was below 100β¬ on sale. Honestly probably the best kitchen appliance I ever bought. https://www.ninjakitchen.de/produkte/ninja-foodi-8-in-1-multifunktionsofen-sp101eu-zidSP101EU

@philipp I'm sure there are better combo units out there, but to me the ergonomics of the basket and handle are worth having a second device.
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from TechConnectify@mas.to
@TechConnectify Yeah, that is the biggest pain-point of this device. My trade-offs are probably a bit different because my oven does has no convection functionality. However I have been throwing the basket in the dishwasher for years now and it's not showing any signs of degradation, so that makes it a bit easier to handle.
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from philipp@chaos.social
@TechConnectify @philipp I have a similar combo unit. For me it was worth it to save the counter space. It's a decent air fryer and has a LOT more basket space, but not as good at cooking as my cheap standalone one was.

The most shocking bit is again the prices of kitchen appliances in the US. $1,000 for a basic convection oven?
=> More informations about this toot | More toots from gom@chaos.social
@TechConnectify
So ...
Convection oven = oven with a gentle breeze.
Air fryer = small oven with strong breeze
Sounds like we need a standard for how often the air is recirculated to be considered "air frying".
(and possibly the air change rate, but I don't know if that's actually a positive thing.)
More speed generally gives more heat transfer so I think the argument is that they're supposedly approaching the heat transfer from hot oil but I have seen no one actually do the maths.

@TechConnectify I'm surprised that the conclusion was that positive :D
I've had an air-fryer for a bit but than gave it to a friend after I noticed that there's no difference between my modern convection oven and the air fryer.
I only understood afterwards that they are basically the same. But I understand the use if you often make smaller amounts or don't have an convection oven at all!

@TechConnectify My only problem with dedicated air fryers was that the basket was too small, whereas the toaster oven style could cook enough with similar results. I suppose this is a bit situational, as it might not matter to one or two person households.
That said, the fryer cool touch handle is great for younger cooks and accessibility needs.

Our Air Fryer was possibly the best kitchen expense in years, despite the BS marketing. The big Oven also cycles the fan like yours and never really got close to what the small things can accomplish, therefore uses up SO much more energy in comparison and for a worse result in at least double the time. Plus the thing is cute and easy to clean. It, for it's specific purpose is just superior to essentially technologically identical kitchen appliances. π

@TechConnectify I was not delighted at having to find space in my kitchen for a fancy one of these after being gifted one last Christmas, and I was pretty certain I didn't need one either. I already have a (big) convection oven anyway. Turns out I'm an idiot: the thing gets used all the time, does a great job and will have already reduced my electricity usage. Enjoyed the video.

@TechConnectify On top of being more convenient and having less thermal inertia than a convection oven there is also the advantage of composite cookers: in the same unit I can steam, slow cook, pressure cook, bake and (air) fry stuff. None of them are new inventions but having them in the same place and not using a ton of pots and pans --

@TechConnectify it just so happens I was making fries in my regular convection oven and was thinking whether I should get an air fryer and then came across your video.
I think if I find as cheap as possible unit with knobs I might go for one. Though then thereβs the trouble of where to put it. The countertop space is limited and adding appliances to it reduces space from regular cooking activities and storing it in the cupboard and having to take it out each time would more likely make me not just bother with it.
So I dunno, maybe one would be neat but for the time being I think I can live with the regular convection oven.

@TechConnectify Good video. The results are what I expected. I have a blind friend who can use the simple 2 knobs-one very good for fries and veggie burgers. Basket with handle is easy for him. I don't eat fries. Do not fry air yet. Use sometime rΓΆsti or a burger in an ordinairy frying pan. But how do I fit a pizza in this contraption. Stack slices on top of each other or on the side? Can forsee some cleaning issue afterwards. π

Wife and I liked this video, and it showed some of the absurdity with our "3-in-1" Microwave oven (this weirdo from Walmart: https://www.walmart.com/ip/5097938802?sid=27483ae2-0acb-479a-a0f9-d369db8fa4de ).
The advertised "3-in-1" is a microwave, convection oven, and an air fryer (which you established is just a convection oven). I think the missed opportunity is not advertising their combined cook mode, which uses the convection oven and microwave at the same time, which I think is a miracle at only 900 watts.
