Air fryers have changed the game. My life is different now. I'm a changed man. I fry my food with the air. I will never go back.

air fryer seems like if your oven was smaller and then you had to wash it after every use. and also sometimes it’s made out of plastic (nonstick material)

Why are you washing your air fryer after every use? Just put down aluminum foil or parchment paper, same as you do in the oven.

Mine is a toaster oven/air fryer combo and it's amazing. I don't even touch my normal oven anymore.

It's an Adult Easy Bake Oven

I've found that air fryers often make far better results than conventional ovens. Conventional ovens tend to cook things unevenly, will more easily burn some parts of the food, take more time to cook and dry things out.

You'll never get homemade chicken wings as crunchy and juicy as you can get them in an air fryer in a conventional oven.

I disagree with your last sentence. Not saying air fryers aren't amazing for wings, but you definitely can get juicy, uber-crunchy wings out of a conventional oven with a little bit of prep. A dry brine and a little baking soda will make some insanely juicy wings with a glassy skin in the oven. I prefer to fry mine personally, but that isn't always convenient.

It is waaay faster and easier to use than an oven.

It's small and powerful convection oven. I'd still prefer a microwave + oven
