We held off on getting an air fryer because I thought we wouldn't use it
much. It ended up staying out on the counter because we used it 3-4
times a week.  We bought one for our son for Christmas. I got the
Cuisinart model that my friend liked. He loves it and uses it almost
every day. He told be we should get rid of our not so  old one and get
the same on we bought for him.

We were gifted a Cuisinart, a couple of years ago. My wife uses it
occasionally. Neither of us knows how to set the clock without the
instructions. Old dogs...
It takes up counter space, but that space wasn't doing anything, anyway.
Someday...
It sits below the microwave. I know how to use that.

That's the type of "air fryer" that looks like a toaster oven.  Not interested.  I have a very small (as Ed describes it) bucket air fryer. It's fine for reheating a few things but I don't use it a lot.  I tend to cook most of my food on the stove top and for that the air fryer I have is not really helpful

  You won't be interested in this one because it looks like a toaster oven but it is the one I bought my son and DiL for Christmas and he loves it. He thinks I should get rid of our old one and get one of these. AAMOF fact we are headed into town in a few minutes and I was thinking about doing that but then I saw the price. They were on sale at Christmas for half that.  Call be cheap but I can't spend $300 on something that was $150 two months ago.
