I use it pretty much every day

What do you use it for? I got one as a gift a couple of years ago, I used to to make tater tots once (admittedly they were pretty good, but I don't generally eat tater tots) and I tried to make fried tofu but it simply came out dry on the outside. Since then the thing has been sitting in its box - I can't get rid of it because the person who gave it to me visits sometimes.

I suppose we probably just cook different sorts of food - everything I make is either boiled or pan-fried. (I don't ever use my oven either. I've been thinking of replacing it with a cooktop for more cabinet space but I think that would lower my home's resale value.)
