You are either working for the opposition or honest and I go with honest. You identified the real expectation before you started the test in that 7 functions? where's the catch and this applies to most things. At best one of the functions may be optimal and the rest or all not even mediocre and this seemed to apply. I do not have a rotisserie type thing but if I wanted one I would be reluctant to pay this price. I have a mini Oven at a fraction of this price and there were others with a rottisiary (no idea how to spell it, it's French) with as large a capacity at half or less than this price. I have two Air Fryers. One is the standard box style OK for a burger ot two and the other a Actifry thingy which stirs as it works which is ideal for Chips (you would call them Frys (or is it Fries. It is also good for stirring sloppy things like Chilli as it cooks or cxan work without the paddle and just sitting there. That probably was higher cost some years ago. Conclusion - overall a fair review I think. btw the Grill - you would call it a broiler function on all mini/toaster ovens is pathetic. I should say all that I have seen, two. Thank you.

Air frying is a misnomer it's just a blooming fan oven. Our ovens in the UK are all fan, usually, unlike American ovens which tend to be convection. A fan oven cooks faster and at a lower heat but it's still an oven so why air fryers came out I have no idea. However for the money just to do rotisserie is amazing and the fact that your chicken came out that great it's worth it. I've just ordered a poulet de bresse for Christmas as my mum hates turkey and generally only eats white meat. I wish I had that machine and the bird cost half the price of the oven lol

Pop in the steak then sear it after add bit of olive oil and 2 table spoons of butter and add your seasoning, garlic, Rosemary ect whatever you use did this for 2-3 min constantly basting it. BOOM let it rest on a plate for however long you basted it. So do it for 4 min. I have over 35 steaks cooked under my belt. It's would be cheaper to use a skillet and oven. Rather an air fryer then searing in a skillet. Def air fryer for fish and everything else. Porkchops should also be cast iron skillet.

The negative replies here are from people that either dont have one, or didnt take the time to learn how to use it. Many people buy this kind of appliance thinking it will solve their poor cooking skills. This unit will get a lot of use in my kitchen. Hot wings, drumsticks and rotisserie chicken are to die for. If I used it just for chicken it would be worth it. My daughter has an air fryer with a basket, and its nowhere as easy to use as this one.

I have a Showtime Rotisserie. When it breaks eventually, I'm gonna be sad. Best investment I've ever made, but I wouldn't consider it a 'kitchen gadget' however, since to eliminate the smoke in your house, you need to use it outside. I see tons of gadgets like this that can handle a chicken, but none can handle a turkey like my Showtime does. Hopefully some of these companies can start making larger models.

Could you consider eliminating music while youre talking - distracting and the point is listening to you, not being entertained by meh music at the same time. Youre a super speaker - thats enough. If you go to a lecture, is music playing in the background? (I know, who goes to lectures) BTW, the thing has 7 functions, not 7 functionalities. Functionality is about how well something does.

Be careful when cleaning the basket, that blade inside WILL slice you open. I was washing it out with cloth rag and was applying pressure when suddenly I felt a cut on pinky finger. If I didn't have quick reflexes it could have been real bad. It did draw blood. But I love the way it cooks. The best dam buffalo wings I ever made. I want to fry an egg with it just to see.

Oh I just got one of these to replace my air fryer and I really like this one as its so much easier to clean and Im loving the oven light to keep an eye on the food. It does work as a dehydrator but it really needs to be as far away as possible to the fan or the food will fly around. I didnt experience any burning. Will roast veggies in 8 mins

6: 44 I believe the rule for steaks like that are sear first, the pop into oven until internal temperature and serve this according to Gordon Ramsey, is essential to seal the flavor in. especially if the steak is thick. also half as long for a steak with a bone, as the bone heats up and doesn't lose heat as quickly: )

How snotty this woman is! You didn't even do the steak right. You're supposed to preheat the cooking tray before cooking. I never saw you do that! And you just cooked your thin cut French fries too long. That's why they were dry inside. Learn to use the appliance before you come on YouTube trying to show us how to do it.
