    I think the air fryer appliance was designed to sell more small appliances.

    Don’t get me wrong, I adore my air fryer and own a big stupid oversized Ninja air fryer with a grill grate in it that my family uses daily.

    But IMO the air fryer is very modern and was designed from the start to be a consumable product and I’m sure my Ninja will die within the next few years.

    I’ve also thought about bying a new oven with air fryer functionality built it, but my spouse pointed out that I’ll have to buy a whole new oven when that breaks…
