Suggest Air Fryer brands and experience

Planning to buy an air fryer for home. Any opinions, experiences, suggestions welcome

The term fryer is a misnomer. A convection oven would do a better job.

From the pricinples, I can see it no different from what you get as convection mode (heater + fan) in an ordinary oven.

Keep in mind they're using a higher end (Rs.20k) air "fryer" model there. And it still can't compete with a regular convection oven that is cheaper.

This is only for single people who live in tiny spaces and don't mind doing more work and paying more.

The problem with cheaper models is they won't cook uniformly. You can't fill more than half.

Using the Philips AF. Pretty good. Makes good kebabs, french fries, roasting of sweet potato etc. Satisfied.

Sorry to bump this up, but do you use some sort of aluminum foil or baking paper to place the food in? Because the kebabs and other frozen stuff sometimes sticks to the metal mesh of the fryer.

Yes, we use food wrapping paper. Aluminium foil sticks and crumbles easily.
