Nah the one with the glass door is where it’s at. We have it and it’s great. Can both air fry, bake, toast, etc. and there’s multiple large racks.
The ninja foodi. It’s a bit pricey though so you may want a slightly different version
Isn't that just an oven?
That's all an air fryer really is. It just lifts the material up into a basket so it can circulate air quickly around it to "fry" it with air.
Otherwise it's almost identical to a convection setting on an oven.
I was pretty skeptical of them when I clicked "Technology Connections" video on them. It's the same thing as a convection oven, what's the big deal?
Well it's the same just like how a quadcopter drone is the same thing as a RC dual rotor helicopter
It's like yeah they're the same thing, but they have some important differences too.
Nah man it's a Ninja Foodie
It's totally different from an oven because... Reasons...
An air fryer is basically an oven
Only really in name (convection oven), other than that, it basically just cycles hot air around the inside, cooking faster and more even than ordinary ovens.
Is that different from an oven with air circulation?

Ah yes, everyone's favorite brown jacket man.
I think I skipped that video, will go watch it.
I got no clue, its probably not that different in that aspect at least.
Interesting, I have to bowl-like version and I wish I knew that was a thing beforehand.
