Yeah I really don't get the point my yousemate has one and he insists it cooks certain things better than an oven, but its really just the same and it just seems like a mindless fad people are following that's being pushed to sell useless tat.

Its basically a convection oven with higher air speed. The faster you get heat onto the surface of food the crispier it gets.

My oven takes like 3 minutes to heat up
