10 minutes to boil a cup of water? How is that considered good in any way?

[–] GhiLA 52 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

it's sarcasm.

Air fryers suck at boiling water. They're basically anti-microwaves. Everything a microwave is good at, they suck at, and vice versa.

Air fryers are for putting a crust on things. Basicly a miniature convection oven

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

That's because it is basically a convection oven, it just has a basket and a few extra customizations. But, as the video notes, a convection toaster oven is not a suitable replacement for an air fryer in most cases.

That's because it is basically a convection oven

Technically it's closer to an impingement oven than a convection oven. I'm surprised Alec didn't mention impingement ovens at all in the video.

Techcon is quickly becoming the XKCD of household appliances

My full size oven has a convection feature that does the same thing my airfryer does but at a much slower speed since it has to warm up for about 5 minutes first so yeah the airfryer works faster but has a smaller capacity than most toaster ovens as well as all full size ones

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Air fryers are just Easy-Bake Ovens for adults.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Thats why I got a Convection Microwave. Best of both worlds!

[–] GhiLA 11 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

I put microwavable things in my microwave halfway, then in my air fryer to finish.

Perfect for little pot pies. Gets the top crispy.

[–] ilovededyoupiggy 22 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

How do you close the door and start it if you only put the food in halfway?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago

Oh I don't close the door, I just jam something in the little hole the door goes into and start it

[–] GhiLA 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

No, no no. Lmao 🤣

Not halfway into the microwave, you silly.

Halfway into the air fryer.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

Wait, you can fit your airfryer fully inside your microwave?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

My microwave is bad at walking a dog. Schould I buy an airfryer? Especially in winter, I would like a machine for that.

[–] GhiLA 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

You're attempting to automate pet ownership?

We're kinda skipping the whole point, like people that grind in RuneScape?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Only in winter

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

So they are dead silent then.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago

No they’re very differently loud. They’re mechanically loud while microwaves are electrically loud
