What does everyone think about those new Air Fryers that are all over the place these days?

Next week I will be 3 months post-op & to date I have stayed away from ALL fried foods... I have no issues cutting up a sweet potato & making myself a few fries by baking them in the oven, but I keep seeing Ads for these fryers & I really want to know if I'm getting suckered or if it would be a good purchase.

Thoughts?

I love mine. Cooking time is a lot less than a regular oven & If u follow it's instructions, the meat comes out tender.

Yea - Like, if it's going to be just as bad as eating something fried, then I don't want anything to do with it. I've worked way to hard this far!

I looked up hundreds of reviews last night on Walmart.com. Apparently, they're the real deal. Especially the Farber brand. I'm going to get one myself.

I tend to overcook my meat a bit (not on purpose, just bad at gauging cooking times) , but my NUT suggested that i use a condiment to moisten up, since we can't drink while we eat.

My wife bought me this for the holidays. It works very well, the meat is nice and tender.

Next holiday season I am going to buy her a Sawzall.

Just an update... I ended up buying one & I absolutely love it. I probably use it 4-5 days each week! So easy & absolutely NO oil!!!

I just used mine tonight to make sweet potato fries. Absolutely AMAZING. I bought the T-FAL Actifryer. GREAT machine. You can see what's cooking and it spins. LOVE IT
